00:00Hi, I'm Clara from Planet Earth, and I was just living the most boring life ever, until
00:09a stranger at my door changed my fate.
00:12Before I continue, please like and subscribe!
00:14I lived with my single dad in the countryside.
00:16I never knew my mom because she left when I was a baby.
00:19And even though dad fed and clothed me, he was always too busy to ever hang out or do
00:24anything fun with me.
00:25Like on my sixth birthday, I begged dad to throw me a bowling party, and he said yes.
00:30Though on the day of the party, all he did was put eight bowling pins in our freaking
00:34driveway.
00:35Ugh!
00:36It was so embarrassing.
00:37Oh, and did I mention we all had to share one balloon?
00:40But that lame party was just the tip of the iceberg.
00:43No, the real issue was that dad and I just had nothing in common.
00:48Like I loved mushrooms, and he was allergic to them, so we could never have mushroom soup.
00:53But he loved hot dogs, and I hated them with a passion, so he was pissed that we could
00:58never have them for lunch.
00:59We couldn't even agree on pasta shapes.
01:01I mean, why would anyone like macaroni?
01:04They look like short, fat slugs.
01:07I wanted spaghetti, and his idea of a fun Saturday night was watching the news and screaming
01:13at the TV while I wanted to go watch a game or attend a concert.
01:17Dad was always telling me I was like a hyperactive toddler, which I thought was better than being
01:22a couch potato.
01:23So, yeah, when I wasn't at school or hanging out with friends, I was stuck feeling as bored
01:29as ever.
01:30Then one day in 11th grade, we got a strange visitor.
01:33May I come in?
01:34I have to speak with you about something urgent regarding your daughter, Clara.
01:39Dad and I felt suspicious, but decided to hear him out, and then he hit us with some
01:43wild news.
01:45I wasn't my dad's real daughter.
01:47Apparently, the hospital nurse had accidentally switched me at birth with the royal queen's
01:53baby.
01:54Haha, very funny.
01:56What, so you're here to tell me I'm actually the princess of Denmark?
02:01Cool story, bro.
02:03Haha, yeah, not really.
02:05I have the proof right here.
02:06Holy fudge, he was right!
02:09The queen's husband wasn't alive, but she was, and she wanted to meet me.
02:14She wants her father to come too.
02:15You see, when you were switched at the hospital, your father's real daughter was given to the
02:20queen by mistake.
02:21You probably know her as Princess Ida, but she wants to meet her biological dad.
02:26Wow, so I really came from a royal family?
02:30Secretly, I wasn't too surprised though.
02:32I always had a feeling me and my dumb dad couldn't be related.
02:36We drove to the palace that weekend, and when we arrived, I couldn't help noticing how
02:40fancy everything was.
02:42I was so busy admiring my surroundings that I didn't notice Princess Ida storming in with
02:47a woman running after her.
02:49Your Highness, you must come to the gathering tomorrow night.
02:53Prince Karl will be there.
02:54Your mother was hoping you two could get engaged someday.
02:57Nope, not happening, so stop asking me about it.
03:01You don't need to stick your gum on my face, Your Highness.
03:04That is very impolite.
03:06Tell Prince Carrot I said hi.
03:09Karl!
03:10Holy cheese balls, that was Princess Ida, my dad's actual daughter?
03:15I found out later on that she was famous for neglecting her royal duties and being totally
03:20irresponsible.
03:21Finally, at dinnertime, I was scheduled to meet my mom, and when I saw her, my heart
03:26practically stopped.
03:28She was so beautiful and elegant.
03:30I guess you wouldn't expect less from a queen, but still...
03:34My precious girl, I can't believe I'm finally seeing you after all these years.
03:39I couldn't believe it either.
03:41Throughout the dinner, I found out Mom was the sweetest person ever.
03:46She wanted to know everything about me.
03:48Dad had never shown that kind of interest in my life before.
03:51She even insisted I stay the night in the guest house.
03:53I was just drifting off to sleep when suddenly I heard crying coming from down the hall.
03:59I tiptoed out of my room and found Ida sobbing on the stairs.
04:03I hate my life.
04:04I'm not even 18 years old, and Mom's making me get engaged.
04:09Can I just say, I've met Prince Carrot before, and he has the longest nose hair I've ever
04:15seen.
04:16I'm sorry, but that's a deal breaker.
04:18Come on, it can't be that bad.
04:20I'm sure there's a way to convince him to trim his nose hairs.
04:23It's not just about the nose hair.
04:25I'm just sick of all the pressure that comes with being a royal princess.
04:29You have no idea what it's like.
04:31I mean, it sounds kind of fun to me.
04:34Don't scream at me, man.
04:36It's just that I have the most boring life ever.
04:39And just then, I had a brilliant idea.
04:42Maybe somehow, Ida and I could switch lives.
04:45I'd tell Dad that I wanted to learn more about where I came from and bond with my mom.
04:50And Ida could ask Mom for some time off so she could bond with Dad.
04:54I pitched my plan to Ida right then, but she wasn't satisfied.
04:58We could do that for a while.
05:00What if you convinced Mom to give you the throne inheritance instead of me?
05:04That way, we'll both be happy, I'll get less responsibility, and you'll have a crazier,
05:09more exciting life.
05:10Are you kidding?
05:11I am so in!
05:13So the next morning, Ida and I convinced our parents to let us switch homes for a few months
05:18so each of us could bond with our biological parents.
05:21Wink, wink.
05:22Mom was excited, though, to teach me about royal life.
05:25It was Dad who would have trouble accommodating his work schedule so he could get to know
05:30his daughter.
05:31I moved into the palace soon, and everything was amazing.
05:35I adored Mom.
05:36I loved living a princess's life, and Ida told me over the phone she was feeling more
05:41relaxed.
05:42The only thing was, I was having some issues adjusting to royal life.
05:45Like, why did my gown have to be so long, and why did it have to be so tight?
05:50I guess one of the servants could tell I was uncomfortable because she told me I looked
05:54like I had period cramps.
05:55And the worst was the food.
05:57Living with Dad, I always thought I had a sophisticated palate because he had the palate
06:02of a baby.
06:03But that was before the cook served me snails.
06:06Go on, taste the escargot.
06:08I want to see the joy on your face when you taste how delicious they are.
06:13Mmm, delicious indeed.
06:16Have you seen that wall over there?
06:18One day, I was taking a walk in the garden when I suddenly tripped over a sharp rock
06:22and fell down.
06:23Hard.
06:24Are you alright, miss?
06:25I looked up to see a guy my age kneeling over me, and I couldn't help notice how handsome
06:30he was.
06:31Uh, yeah, just a clumsy fall.
06:34I'm really scraped up, though.
06:37He pulled me up gently, and when we made eye contact, I felt my heart go wild.
06:42The guy said he'd get me some herbal treatment, and when he returned, he started tending to
06:46my wounds.
06:47I found out his name was Stefan, and he was the gardener's son.
06:50Oh, thank God, you're just some poor servant.
06:53I mean, it's just been a little difficult being around all these royal snobs.
06:58No offense.
07:00Okay, well, what are you doing here in the palace anyway?
07:04I told Stefan everything that had happened in the past couple of weeks, and the whole
07:08biological parent-daughter mix-up.
07:11So, now that I know your royalty, does that mean I have to start bowing at your feet?
07:16He smiled at me, and I felt myself blush.
07:19From that day on, I started visiting Stefan every day when I had free time and helped
07:23him in the garden.
07:24And eventually, he asked me out, and I said yes.
07:27Our connection had been instant, and once I started spending time with Stefan, I sort
07:32of forgot about everything and everyone.
07:34Like, at one point, we were having a late-night date, and I was really surprised when I got
07:39a FaceTime call from Ida, because I hadn't thought about her in weeks.
07:43She told me how she'd talked to the queen, who was super impressed with how much I'd
07:46learned about royal life in a short time.
07:49I can't believe how well everything—Clara, you seem distracted.
07:53Yeah, I'm on a very, very enjoyable date with my boyfriend.
07:58You have a boyfriend now?
07:59Yes!
08:00I'm dating the gardener's son, Stefan, and I think he's the world's best kisser!
08:04Clara!
08:05You cannot date one of the palace workers if you want to become royalty!
08:09This is common sense, ma'am!
08:11Please, it's 2023.
08:12I could still take over the throne and marry a common boy.
08:16Listen.
08:17To.
08:18Me.
08:19I don't want to inherit the throne.
08:20I thought this plane was about both of us being happy.
08:23So unless you want me to throw myself off a cliff, you better not screw this up!
08:28Ida did have a point there, so I told her I'd think of a solution.
08:32But a month later, trouble escalated.
08:34Mom said she was having an important dinner with some officials, and she wanted me, Dad,
08:38and Ida to come.
08:39I asked if Stefan could join too, and Mom said yes.
08:42She wanted everyone to hear the announcement she was going to make.
08:45As you all know, I was reunited with my biological daughter Clara.
08:50For the past few months, she's been staying here and learning everything about the royal
08:54workings of the palace.
08:55After months of consulting with authorities and our council, we've decided that Clara
09:00is going to inherit the throne instead of Ida.
09:03When Ida turns 18 next week, she'll be giving up her royal title altogether.
09:08Everyone at the table went silent, and I saw Ida beaming at me happily.
09:12Our plan had actually worked!
09:14Mom had even consulted Dad, and he agreed to it because he thought it was the life I
09:18wanted.
09:19Just then, I saw Stefan looking over at me with his dreamy blue eyes, and I knew then
09:24that I had to bring the issue up.
09:26But as I told Mom Stefan and I were together, she just stared at me with this really confused
09:31expression.
09:32I don't understand.
09:33I told you you're going to get engaged to Prince Karl sometime this year, remember?
09:37You're not actually asking me if you can marry my gardener son, right?
09:41Well, I don't know about marriage.
09:43I'm only 17, bro.
09:45But Stefan and I do love each other.
09:47And if being royalty means I can't be with the person I love, then I don't want to
09:52be a princess.
09:53Mom looked like she was about to have a stroke.
09:55Your Highness, if things continue going as well as they are between me and Clara, we
10:00do want to get married one day.
10:03Lots of commoners marry into royalty.
10:05Like, but I already had a plan and fiancé in mind.
10:09Do you know what I went through fighting to get you the royal inheritance?
10:13Yes, I thought doing this would be the best for the country and take a load off Ida's
10:18shoulders.
10:19But the real reason I did this was for you.
10:21I missed your childhood and most of your adolescence, and I missed the chance to give you my love.
10:27So I'm giving you that love now.
10:29I knew her heart was in the right place, but the royal life she described was not the one
10:34I wanted for myself.
10:35So I refused to accept the throne inheritance and left the table.
10:39But Ida ran after me.
10:40Are you crazy?
10:42Six months ago you went gaga over the idea of being a princess, and now you're giving
10:46it up so you can date some stupid herbivore?
10:49First of all, I said Stefan likes plants.
10:52I didn't say he eats plants.
10:54He's a boy, not a rabbit, duh.
10:56Okay, I don't even know what we're talking about anymore.
10:59Why did you even make this deal with me if you weren't going to follow through?
11:02It may have been some meaningless game to you, but this is my life and it's not a joke.
11:08I know, and I'm sorry.
11:10At the time, I really did believe I wanted to switch lives with you, but I think what
11:15I really wanted was a little adventure and excitement.
11:18And mom's a lot more fun than dad.
11:20And now that I finally got that, I'm realizing I don't actually want to be a royal princess.
11:25I didn't mean to manipulate you or mom, but I can't sacrifice my happiness like that.
11:30The next morning, I went back with dad, and both Ida and mom cut contact with me.
11:35I felt guilty, because I knew what I'd done was pretty selfish.
11:39So Stefan and I kept dating, and we moved in together after I graduated high school.
11:44Then one day, I got a scary phone call.
11:46It was mom's secretary, who told me that Ida had fallen really sick and went into a coma,
11:51and they weren't sure if she'd ever wake up.
11:53The queen isn't doing well either.
11:55Everyone's worried about her, about Ida, and the state of the monarchy.
11:59I was numb with shock.
12:01Worst of all, I felt like this whole thing was my responsibility to fix,
12:05since the queen was my mom and I had refused to take over the throne.
12:09I went to the hospital that night and found mom sitting by Ida's bed,
12:13and she was actually relieved to see me.
12:15I helped out with palace duties all that week, because mom refused to leave Ida's bedside.
12:21I was starting to reconsider a lot of things,
12:23so one night, I asked Stefan to come to the hospital so we could talk.
12:27You know that my mom really needs me, right?
12:30I love you so much, but I think she has to be my focus right now.
12:34So, are you breaking up with me?
12:37Are you gonna try and take Ida's place as a princess because she's in a coma?
12:41It's more complicated than that.
12:43I just don't want to put my needs before my family's again.
12:47I'll never forget you, Stefan, but we can't be together.
12:50And just like that, I broke up with the guy I loved that night.
12:54I asked mom the next day if I could go away for a few days to get my mind off of things,
12:58and she said yes.
12:59I went to stay with dad and told him everything.
13:01Can I tell you a secret?
13:03It's really awful.
13:04What is it?
13:05My wish?
13:06I'd never known that mom and Ida existed.
13:09I hate that I feel responsible for Ida falling into a coma.
13:12I know that's an evil thought, though.
13:15That's not evil, Clara.
13:17Your life changed a lot when you met your mom.
13:19In some ways for the better, in some ways for the worse.
13:21But I think she taught you a lot more than I ever did.
13:24I know I should have done more for you as a dad.
13:27Nah, I was a pretty bratty kid.
13:29I am still convinced, though, that spaghetti's a superior pasta to macaroni.
13:34Dad just laughed and I started to feel better.
13:37Then, a few nights later, I got a call from the nurse with insane news.
13:41Ida had woken up from her coma.
13:43I returned immediately to the hospital to find Ida
13:46when I ran into mom talking with Stefan.
13:48Clara, I overheard your conversation that night with Stefan in the hallway.
13:52How you two broke up because you wanted to take care of me and your royal family.
13:56And it made me realize how selfish I was,
13:59trying to get you engaged if you were going to take over the throne.
14:02So I called Stefan over and told him that I wanted you two to be together.
14:06Also, I don't know if I told you, but my dad isn't just a gardener.
14:10He's also a herbal healer.
14:12That's why I know so much about plant medicine.
14:14I asked my dad to do a healing ritual to help Ida out of her coma
14:17and he did.
14:18I breathed a huge sigh of relief and hugged them both.
14:21Everything had worked out except...
14:23Wait a second.
14:24Does Ida still hate me because I didn't take over the throne?
14:28No.
14:29Once I told her that she didn't have to get engaged to that prince
14:32and stopped putting so much pressure on her,
14:34she realized she doesn't hate being a princess as much as she thought.
14:38That was good to hear.
14:40Stefan took my hand right then and we ran to go see Ida.
14:47The End
