As he and his new friend Rapunzel head back east to his old hometown of Shyport, Jack thinks back on his past. He’s always been a schemer; he likes to think of himself as a “criminal mastermind with an unfortunate amount of bad luck.” He remembers the pranks and heists he and Prudence the pixie used to pull, including the last one which caused him to flee Shyport, and, worries that Rapunzel might not want to stick around once she discovers his criminal past.
