Our heroes were on their way to Mama Odie. Tiana and Naveen had heard from the fat, trumpet playing alligator named Louis that she was the one that could help them become humans again. He was also the only one who knew where she lived. At first he didn't want to help them get there because it was scary, but after Naveen said too him that if he got transformed into a human as well he decided to lead them to her.
Louis felt a bit stupid not figuring out this himself. He loved playing jazz and wanted to be able to play it for the humans. They had always been scared for him (being that he was an alligator.), and never really letting him show them what he could do. He knew that if he only was human they would love him. He also knew that Mama Odie had all kind of magical abilities. So he couldn't get why he hadn't visited her himself before? 'Anyway' he thought, 'Now it's my time. I'm going to become a human and fulfil my dream.'
When they reached Mama Odie's home (that was the wreck of a boat in a tree.) Mama Odie told Tiana and Naveen how they must 'dig a little deeper' and look for 'what they need instead of what they want.' She also sang it in a big song number with gospel singing birds. After that it was Louis turn to talk to Mama and tell her what he needed help with. He told her he to needed to be human so he could 'play with the big boys'. But all Mama Odie said was that he to needed to 'dig a little deeper' and he would find everything he needs. He wanted to ask her some more but he saw that she had sat down in her chair and fallen asleep.
Louis didn't really get what she had said to him, and thought about something different. During the time he had spent here at Mama Odie's home he had seen that she has a big stick that worked like a magic wand. In the musical number he saw her use it to turn her pet snake Juju into a dog, pig, cow and goat. He had also seen that she had a bathtub that was filled with gumbo. He had seen that it to had magical powers.
'Are you coming with us Louis?' Tiana and Naveen asked Louis. 'We need to get back to New Orleans before midnight if we are going to break the curse.' 'Yes I'm coming soon.' Louis replayed. 'I just need to do a quick thing. You can go first. I reach up with you quickly.' 'Okay.' The frogs said and they leaved the house.
'At least one of those things should be nice shortcut for me to reach my goal of becoming a human.' Louis though for himself. 'All I need to do is to be quick and stealthy while she's asleep.' Louis thought looking at Mama Odie sleeping in her chair. 'But what magical item should I choose?
