Rapunzel story
Why was Rapunzel kidnapped? Because her mom had her dad steal a sorceress' lettuce.
Yes, rapunzel means lettuce.
And the story is pretty anti-climactic. The sorceress takes her out of the tower and sends her into the forest when she finds out a knight has been climbing her hair, providing her silk for a ladder, and also banging her.
Why he didn't just bring a ladder, I don't know.
