Their adventure to the internet starts when Vanellope’s game Sugar Rush breaks, and gets unplugged because a part is broken. Ralph then has the idea to go and get the new part from the internet. Along the way the two meet new friends, and discover issues that will test their friendship.
Ralph and Vanellope are the dynamic duo with Ralph being tough yet sensitive, and Vanellope being ready to take on a new adventure.

No one has ever put the princess into a modern day animation until now.” Alex Velez also stated, “My favorite scene is when Ralph reads his first hate comment after becoming a Youtube star. The boss helped him realize that there will always be haters and that you need to have self confidence.”
On their way to the internet, Ralph and Vanellope travel through Disney where they meet the newly animated Disney Princesses. The new princesses where a shock to many people, the oldest being Snow White who has not been animated since 1937. Nicole Jones also stated, “
The princess’ and Vanellope teach young girls that they don’t need to be rescued and that they are not helpless or damsels in distress.”
