Eugene Fitzherbert, also formerly known as Flynn Rider (Real Name: Horace) is the deuteragonist of Disney's Tangled franchise.

He is the biological son of King Edmund and Queen Alexis, husband of Rapunzel, and son-in-law of King Frederic and Queen Arianna. He was initially a thief before meeting Rapunzel and was living on the wrong side of the law, but then changed his ways after saving Rapunzel from Mother Gothel.

He was voiced by Zachary Levi, who also voiced Rocky Rhodes in Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget.

His Good Ranking[]

What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Good?[]

Tangled[]

  • While he was a former thief, he also shed the following qualities and made improvements outweighing them:
    • He was an egotist who got involved with the evil Kingpin and it's unknown whether it's his fault or not.
    • Just like he retired from crime acting, he helped various characters do the same (namely, Lance Strongbow, Kiera, Catalina, and Brock Thunderstrike).
    • He defeated past criminals (ie: Lady Caine, Anthony Weasel, Axel, Dwayne, Dale, the Stabbington Brothers, that were his former partners in crime, etc.) or redeems them (i.e. Lance Strongbow, Kiera, Catalina).
    • In the episode "Flynnposter", he loses all of his pridefulness within his legacy.
  • He lets Rapunzel become free from Mother Gothel and takes her on a date to watch the lights.
  • After recovering from being attacked and awakening in prison, he was worried about Rapunzel and went with Maximus to save her.
  • After Mother Gothel stabbed him, he sacrifices his chances of being healed by Rapunzel by slicing her magical hair, resulting in Mother Gothel losing her youth and becoming an elderly woman, weak, and less powerful.
  • Fixed Rapunzel's family.

Tangled: Before Ever After[]

  • Defeated Lady Caine's bandits, who broke into Rapunzel's coronation as an official princess.

Tangled: The Series[]

  • While he held a reciprocal personal grudge against Cassandra in the first season, over the course of the series they both got close to each other, to the point that Flynn says that he considers Cassandra like a sister, and wished her to reject the evilness just as Rapunzel after she fell into it.
  • His personality changes for the better, and, in the end, he is a very noble and heroic individual.
Season 1[]
  • Redeemed Varian into realizing that his science could destroy the village.
  • Despite their animosity towards each other, he starts to get along with the Captain of the Guards after he stops Dale.
  • Stops a thief that disguised himself as a worldwide painter to steal a valuable painting from Corona.
  • He, alongside Rapunzel's lady-in-waitress, Cassandra, helped Rapunzel adapt herself many times, as she was in the tower since she was a baby.
  • When a strangely powerful blizzard hits the kingdom, putting Rapunzel's parents, who were on a trip because of their wedding anniversary, at high risk of death, Flynn, along with many redeemed thugs from the kingdom, offered themselves to go look for her parents, as "they gave them a second chance, nothing more fair than giving them one as well". They succeeded in rescuing Rapunzel's parents.
  • He fought bravely and distracted Varian, after the latter became a villain, so Rapunzel could break into his house and rescue her mother, who was kidnapped by Varian.
  • After the strange black rocks that are somehow connected to Rapunzel's magic hair broke the kingdom's hedge and made a path for Rapunzel to follow and discover the origins of her powers, Flynn is one of the people who offered himself to go with Rapunzel, alongside Cassandra, Hook Foot, and Lance.
Season 2[]
  • As they got to Vardaros, a city ruled by the Baron, Flynn was kidnapped by the Baron's thugs, and he ordered him to marry his daughter, Stalyan, and, despite Flynn not wanting it, he accepted, as the Baron poisoned Lance, and only he had the antidote.
  • Helped cure Lance after the Baron's defeat.
  • While he and the group are trespassing a magical forest known as the forest of no return, a woman named Adira, who has already done such a deed before, tries to help them. Initially, Flynn is jealous of the attention given to her and ignores her advice, but after he puts the group in danger, he realizes the error of his ways, and, along with Adira, saves his friends.
  • He helped free several people who were turned into birds and locked up by two mysterious villains, known as "Mother and Father".
  • Tried to help Kiera find her presumed family, based on a psychic monkey's "vision". After Kiera realized her "family", was nothing but a couple of thieves pretending to be her family, Flynn helped her see that Catalina is her family, as a family is anyone who is with them whenever they need them.
  • When he and Maximus, the royal guard horse, got both in a discussion, Flynn said Max was too strict with rules, while Max thought Flynn was too reckless. After they both accidentally got in a prison ship that was taken over by its prisoners, who happen to be enemies Flynn and Max already fought in the past, after they defeat all of the criminals, they learn to respect their different points of view.
  • When Cassandra, Lance, and Shorty all accidentally get transformed into kids, Eugene and Rapunzel took care of them until they discovered how to undo the magic. Despite Rapunzel and Eugene having very different points of view on how to babysit them, Flynn wanting to be harsh with them and Rapunzel being the softest as possible, in the end, they realize that both points of view have their faults and advantages.
  • Tried to realize Rapunzel from the nightmarish trap imposed on her by Trommus.
  • As they got to the Dark Kingdom, where the rocks were guiding Rapunzel, he and the group fought against its King, Edmund, but Flynn then discovered he was his father. While he sides with him initially, but soon rejoins Rapunzel's group, as he believed she was there to fulfill her destiny, destroying the Moonstone and saving the world.
Season 3[]
  • When he got back to Corona, he helped defeat the Separatists of Saporia, who had conquered the kingdom.
  • He forgave Varian.
  • When his father went to Corona to see him, Flynn was initially repulsive to him, but this was because he felt bad for Edmund abandoning him when he was a newborn. But once he understands that Edmund only did so to protect his son from the moonstone and that he even used his crows to keep track of him, he made up with his father.
  • Helped Rapunzel's parents get their memories back after those were erased.
  • Helped Catalina control her negative emotions and her lycanthropy after she got the curse of the werewolf.
  • In the episode "No Time Like the Past", he encourages Rapunzel to give up on Cassandra, after she became a villain, by throwing her old things away. Rapunzel dislikes Flynn’s behavior, but after she is accidentally sent to the past by a magical hourglass, she discovers that that behavior was the fruit of Flynn's questionable past, and she succeeds in changing his mind. This affects the present, where Flynn's now putting Cassandra's stuff back in their places, and still believes that there is still some good in Cassandra.
  • He went to the Tirapi Island alongside Rapunzel to look for the missing Captain of the Guards, who's also Cassandra's adoptive father. There, they find out that Captain is living with a five-year-old illusion of Cassandra, created by a dark-magic object on the Island. Flynn and Rapunzel succeed in changing the Captain's mind, letting that false illusion of happiness go away, and getting him back to the kingdom.
  • Invaded Cassandra's castle along with Rapunzel, Lance, Kiera, and Catalina, to rescue Varian.
  • In "Race to the Spire" he and Rapunzel help Calliope stop Cassandra and Zhan Tiri (despite not being a fan of Calliope), he even attempted to comfort Rapunzel saying that they'll get through to Cass.
  • In "Flynnpostor", he finally defeated the Baron, after the latter tried to kill him and Rapunzel as revenge for dethroning him, and redeemed his fan that was trying to recreate his idol's image as a thief, Brock Thunderstrike.
  • In "Once a Handmaiden…", while he did build a weapon to destroy Cassandra, he never intended to kill her and was only doing it to protect Corona. He even attempts to reason with her.
  • In the finale, Flynn tries to cheer the group after Cassandra takes over the kingdom, helps Rapunzel get the last part of the Demanitus scroll to learn the last spell, and fought against the Pure Evil Zhan Tiri, along with the entirety of Corona, buying time to Rapunzel and the now redeemed Casandra find a way out of the prison they were put in by Zhan Tiri.
  • He became the new Captain of the Guards of Corona, after the old one retired, and is said to be the "best Captain of the Guards Corona ever saw", meaning that he did protect Corona well after the series' end.

What Prevents Him From Being Pure Good?[]

  • He can be narcissistic and arrogant and can be a jerk sometimes, as he would taunt and mock his enemies.
  • He betrayed the Stabbington brothers and left them to get arrested by the royal guards while he escape with the crown even though they trusted him, while he did apologize to them later and even give them the crown, this was more like an attempt to get in good graces with them rather than a genuine apology, even in the series he still enjoy mocking them when they fight.
