Which actually becomes more brilliance when you think that the Witch was the one who gave the spell to both parties.

Elinor, meanwhile, had a cake, which had more ingredients than just 'magic' and thus heavily distilled.

Additional brilliance: Mor'du drank a raw potion, which was basically the direct-to-bottle magic spell from the cauldron.

But as he basically swallowed it all in a few gulps, all at once, the brilliance stands.

A bonus short on the Blu-ray indicates that he got his as a potion, not a cake.

Mor'du, greedy as he was for power, ate the whole thing in one bite. Why did Mor'du change right in front of his whole family and destroy throne room and clan, while Elinor has time to make it up to her bedroom and writhe around for a while first? Aside from the fact that Mor'du didn't have anyone who was in on the spell to help him hide, Elinor only ate a very small piece of the cake.During the tournament, why does Fergus easily side with Merida over trolling the suitors when he should be on his wife's side? Bear in mind, Fergus is a father, and as with most fathers who have daughters, he's very protective of Merida and isn't quite ready to see her married off to just any suitor.Whats a good word to describe how Merida sees her mothers opposing of her lifestyle un'bear'able.Third, even though the whole problem is Merida's fault to begin with, she's too stubborn to admit it. Merida even has to remind Elinor about that. Second, he hunts bears for sport in the hope of one day killing Mor'du and avenging his leg (much like Captain Ahab was with Moby-Dick), to the point that he's called the Bear King. Why does Merida keep what happened to Elinor a secret from Fergus instead of just telling him the truth? First, Fergus doesn't believe in magic, which he makes very clear in the prologue by mocking the existence of Wisps.

Elinor may have been working on this tapestry for maybe about three years. Also, notice the triplets are in what looks like a crib.
