Elmont then escapes down the beanstalk.įallon finds the magic beans and uses them to create four new beanstalks, and the army of giants descends on the Kingdom. Instead, Fallon takes it and gains control of the giants.
Elmont stays behind to confront Roderick and kills him but is not able to get the crown. Jack and Isabelle head down the beanstalk. Before they can kill Isabelle and Elmont, Jack rescues them, and the trio escapes. Roderick walks in and enslaves the giants with the crown. Jack follows the giants to their stronghold, where the two-headed giant leader, Fallon, has imprisoned Isabelle and Elmont and is preparing to kill them. Roderick and his sidekick encounter two other giants, and while the sidekick gets eaten, Roderick saves himself by donning the magical crown. Jack’s group is trapped by a giant, who takes everyone prisoner except Jack. At the top, the party discovers the giants’ realm and decide to split into two groups: but not before Roderick forcibly takes the remaining beans from Jack (although Jack manages to save one for himself). Jack joins a massive rescue party that includes Roderick and his sidekick, as well as Elmont, the captain of the king’s guard and his second in command, Crawe.Īs they climb the beanstalk, Roderick and his sidekick cut the safety rope, intentionally killing much of the rescue party. One Jack’s beans falls through the floorboards and takes root, growing into a massive beanstalk that carries the house and Isabelle into the sky. Isabelle would rather explore the kingdom than marry Roderick, so she sneaks out of the castle and seeks shelter at Jack’s house. A monk has, in turn, stolen the beans from Roderick and gives them to Jack in exchange for his horse. Princess Isabelle’s fiance, Lord Roderick, has raided King Erik’s tomb and stolen the magic beans and crown. There, he sees Isabelle and becomes enamored with her. Ten years later, Jack goes into town to sell his horse to support his uncle’s farm. The giants came to the Kingdom by climbing down a beanstalk that had grown from magic beans, and when King Erik died, the remaining magic beans, as well as the crown, were buried with him. The young Princess Isabelle is fascinated with the same legend. Jack is a young farm boy fascinated by the legend of Erik, an ancient king who defeated an army of giants with a magical crown.
