Before heading off to her second job, she plants a quick kiss on a photo of her father (it is implied that he was killed in WWI), telling him that they're "almost there".Īs Tiana heads off to work, we get a quick glimpse of the hustle and bustle of New Orleans as it was in the 1920s – full of life and culture (the newspaper seen when Naveen gets off the boat says April 1926). Tiana is now a beautiful young woman, working two waitressing jobs and saving up all her tips in a bedroom drawer, hoping to earn enough money to open the restaurant she and her father had always dreamed of. He makes her promise that she'll never lose sight of what's really important in life. Tiana's father reminds her that wishing can only take you so far and you have to get the rest of the way yourself through hard work. Little Tiana makes a wish on the evening star that their dream will one day come true.

Tiana and her father laugh together as they whip up a batch of his famous gumbo and talk about their shared dream of one day opening a restaurant. We quickly learn that Tiana and her friend Charlotte are definitely from two different worlds as the young girl and her mother head home to their tiny shack where Tiana's father, James, waits for them. Charlotte's father, "Big Daddy" La Bouff arrives home with a new puppy for his spoiled daughter while Eudora and Tiana head home. Eudora then gets it off the ceiling and takes the mask off the horrified White Kitten. But when Charlotte starts kissing White Kitten, it jumps up and gets stuck on the ceiling. Charlotte then puts a frog mask on White Kitten and starts pushing it in Tiana's face. Charlotte is entranced by the story while Tiana is clearly disgusted and vows never to kiss a frog. We are then taken to the very pink and frilly bedroom of young Charlotte La Bouff, who is sitting beside a young Tiana as they listen to Tiana's seamstress mother, Eudora tells the story of the Frog Prince as she puts the finishing touches on a dress for Charlotte. We hear the voice of Tiana singing, telling us that anything is possible if you wish upon the evening star.
