8. The tower
There’s a time jump, and we see Rapunzel throwing her long locks out the balcony to help raise Gothel up. Now, I don’t care who you are, it’s still going to take a few years to let that hair grow that long. That means that for at least until Rapunzel was… let’s say 7 or 8 years old, she wouldn’t have had hair long enough to reach the ground. So how did Gothel visit her? We later see there’s a hidden door that allows the witch to reach the higher levels of the tower, so perhaps she used those before, right? Well, wouldn’t Rapunzel remember Gothel coming to visit her through the secret door and use it to escape the high tower and explore the world around it at the very least?
