The Moment In What A Girl Wants That Makes No Sense

In one of the final moments of "What A Girl Wants," Daphne is back to her normal New York life waiting tables at a wedding as her mom sings. She's sad and disappointed that things ended so poorly with Henry, who she had been vying to meet since she was a little girl.

Daphne's glum mood instantly improves when she sees Henry approaching the reception on a tiny boat. He flew all the way from London to apologize and tell Daphne, "I wouldn't change anything about you. I wouldn't change one hair on your head." Daphne enjoys her first father-daughter dance, which is happily interrupted by Ian, who tags along with Henry.

It's a sweet, tear-inducing scene, but it leaves a lot of unanswered questions. First, it's unclear how Henry knows where to find Daphne. As a brand new addition to her life, he likely isn't familiar with his daughter's work schedule, yet he arrives like a knight in shining armor with impeccable timing. If he sailed in a few moments later, they would've missed the opportunity to share the dance, something she's craved for years. While it's possible Henry contacted Libby about his surprise, she seems so stunned by his appearance that she can't continue singing.

There's also the fact that Ian is able to accompany Henry to America with such limited notice. In "What A Girl Wants," he's the only musician hired for balls and coming-of-age events. If he was slated to perform at an important royal affair, guess they had to find somebody else.
