The Oakens explain that they aren't troubled by the winter because they live by Hygge, which means comfortable, cozy, and easy.

Everyone joins in praise of the Hygge philosophy.

It can't be hygge without your family and friends.

Hygge, hygge, hygge.

Hygge, hygge, hygge.

Hygge, hygge, hygge.

Hygge, hygge, hygge.

High in the frozen mountains, Queen Elsa has constructed a palace of ice.

Exhausted by a lifetime of trying to conceal her power, Elsa sings, “Let It Go,” and , amid swirling snow, she glories in the magic.

Having found Elsa, Anna says that, together, they can unfreeze the world, but Elsa has completely lost control of the magic which rises furiously until Anna is struck in the heart.

Kristoff summons the Hidden People to save Anna, but they think Anna is just asking for advice about Kristoff, her “Fixer Upper” boyfriend.

Finally, the Hidden People realize that Anna has suffered a magic freezing strike to her heart, which can only be fixed by an act of true love, so Kristoff takes Anna in search of Hans.

They find Hans, but he admits that he lied about loving Anna and gloats:  now that he has dealt with both sisters he will become King Hans of Arendelle.

Olaf releases Anna from the cold cell in which Hans has locked her to await her death by freezing, and they go in search of Elsa.

Before the townspeople, Hans sentences Elsa to death for the treasonous killing of Annah.

Holding candles, the townspeople bear witness to this awful announcement.

Elsa's anger creates a blizzard that gets “Colder by the Minute,” and she disappears into the storm.

Finally, Hans locates Elsa in the storm and tells her that she has killed Annah by freezing her heart.  Elsa drops to her knees and buries her face in her hands.

As Hans swings his saber to execute Elsa, Anna steps in to protect her sister and freezes solid so that the deadly weapon kicks back, knocking out Hans.

Anna's act of true love has unfrozen her own heart, and the sisters are reunited.

Hans revives, and Kristoff, the newly appointed royal Ice Master, moves to fight him, but Anna wants to deal with him herself.

Even the once skeptical Duke of Weselton pledges his allegiance to Queen Elsa.

The Snow Chorus, Oakens, and Hidden Folk all join in singing, “The fear and cold are gone. Here we stand in the light of day. Let our true love grow.”

A final cast portrait.
