Season One
When Cassandra sneaked Rapunzel out of the castle and over Corona's wall, she believed that she'll be able to do it without having to worry about her father finding out, until Rapunzel's long hair grew back and became worried that her father would send her to an nunnery once he becomes aware of the disobeying role she played in it. Even though both Rapunzel and Eugene agreed to keep that fact quite from the Captain.

Season Two

He reunited with her at the ruins of the maze that Rapunzel and Eugene previously visited, where Cassandra lashes out at her father as she is angry at him for hiding the truth about Mother Gothel from her and was determined to not have anything else taken from her ever again. Along with him giving Cassandra orders to stand down, like she was a rouge guard under his charge didn't help matters, as Cassandra had also swore to never let anyone hold her down again or to hold back, no matter what. Due to her corrupted actions and words from their encounter the Captain could not recognize the girl he raised and was after finally able to see what Cassandra had become.

Believing that Cassandra's corrupt actions were his fault and became ashamed of it, he chose not to return back to Corona and somehow ends up on Trapei Island. Where he exiled himself there and during his time on the island he found away to grant himself a second chance to be a better father to Cassandra, by re-raising Cass through her young self that was created from the Captain's wish. Since then the Captain was able to find happiness on the island has he plays and spends all of his time with young "Cassandra", like she really is the real thing, without realizing that his desirer had him abandoning the real Cass through her young replacement, until Rapunzel and Eugene found him on the island, along with uncovering how little Cass (who casts no shadow) came into his life, and since the magic on the island has a down side, the two ask him to undo his wish before the ugly side of the wish's magic unmerges to terrorize the island. Not wanting to loss his little girl again, the Captain tries to leave the island with young Cassandra while Rapunzel begs him to not turn his back on the real Cassandra who is still out there. The Captain didn't want to believe the princess's words until he realized that the Cassandra he wished for has no shadow and that Rapunzel is right. After finding the courage to say goodbye to the "Cassandra" he looked after on the island and undid the wish, he returns to Corona with Rapunzel and Eugene in hopes that they'll be able to find and bring back the true Cassandra they love.
