The movie begins with a bright star shining in the Louisiana sky. We hear the voice of Tristan singing, telling us that anything is possible if you wish upon the evening star. We are then taken to the very pink and frilly bedroom of young Charles La Bouff, who is sitting beside a young Tristan as they listen to Tristan's carpenter father, Eric tells the tale of the Frog Princess as he puts the finishing touches on a toy for Charles. Charles is entranced by the story while Tristan is clearly disgusted and vows never to kiss a frog. Charles then puts a frog mask on White Kitten and starts pushing it in Tristan's face. But when Charles starts kissing the white kitten, it jumps up and gets stuck on the ceiling. Eric then gets it off the ceiling and takes the mask off the horrified white kitten. Charles's mother, "Big Mommy" La Bouff arrives home with a new puppy for her spoiled son while Eric and Tristan head home. We quickly learn that Tristan and his friend Charles are definitely from two different worlds as the young boy and his father head home to their tiny shack where Tristan's mother, Jennifer, waits for them. Tristan and his mother laugh together as they whip up a batch of her famous gumbo and talk about their shared dream of one day opening a restaurant.
