The inciting incident occurs when Jack encounters a desperate monk who exchanges a pouch of beans for Jack’s horse. When Jack returns home, his frustrated uncle tosses the beans aside; one falls through the floorboards into the wet earth below. Later that night, during a storm, Isabelle seeks shelter at Jack's house. Suddenly, a massive beanstalk erupts from the floorboards, carrying Jack’s house and the princess high into the clouds.
