You mean you haven't heard?

Mammoth Tailor's contest.

>> Bockalocka the proud, ruler of all

Bimbentucket, offers 1 million

brinklands.

First prize for the emperor's new

clothes.

>> And the news spread throughout the

world. And in every nation in creation,

tailors grabbed their finest garments

and dashed off hopefully to the empire

of Bimbentucket.

>> The French tailors were

chic, fanatic.

The English were

very bureaucratic.

In Espan, they were dramatic.

The Arabs were erratic.

The Chinese,

Asiatic.

The Venetians, equated, equated.

The Africans, pragmatic.

It was very democratic.

The competition,

quite emphatic.

>> For 1 million brinklands, that's a lot

of money for a new suit, don't you

think?

>> Hello.

Who wins?

Come along with me.

It's the enchanted world of Danny Kaye.

There's a world of enchantment to see.

Come along

with me.

Through my ears you will hear different

sounds.

Through my

eyes you'll see.

We'll enchant your every single sense.

Your imagination

will become immense. Your capacity

to dream

we'll stretch to the extreme.

There's a world of enchantment to see.

Come along with me.

There's a world of enchantment to see.

Come along

with

me.

Uh now this is the windy village of

Odense, a lovely town in Denmark, much

like the one where Hans Christian

Andersen lived when he wrote all those

wonderful fairy tales.

Now what I would like to do

is to have a look around. Why why don't

you come with me? All of you, come on.

Let's go. Now we'll have a look and see

what we can do.

Come with me.

Come with me. Come with me.

Look. Look at that.

That that's a toy store, isn't it? Huh?

I'll bet young Hans pressed his nose up

against the window of a toy store just

like this and may have gotten an idea

for one of his fairy tales.

Well,

can you guess which one?

Oh, come here. Come here. Sit down here,

Emma.

Come in. Come in. Come in.

Now,

do you know what that is?

>> It's a tin soldier.

>> Yeah, but it's a little different than

just an ordinary tin soldier. But why?

>> He has one leg.

>> He has one leg.

Do you see that little building over

there?

>> Uh-huh.

>> Well, let's go over there. I think we'll

see something.

Mr. Jensen?

Maybe.

>> Uh yeah, I I I've come for the for the

cloth.

Yes.

Thank you very much. Look at that.

Look at that. Look at the texture of

that cloth.

Look at the sheen. See the way it drapes

and folds, huh?

Have you ever seen such cloth? It's

magical.

Why, it's fit for an emperor. This cloth

is the most important part of our story.

>> The Emperor's New Clothes?

>> Yes, the Emperor's New Clothes. That's

Hans Christian Andersen's famous tale

about an emperor and a robe.

You see?

There once was an emperor.

Emperor.

This weighs a ton.

You know something?

Actually,

I'd like to play the part of the other

fellow.

Yes.

I shall be

Marmaduke.

Once upon a time,

there was a wonderful rogue called

Marmaduke,

the cleverest conniver, the most supreme

swindler who ever drew a bamboozled

breath.

I was touring the world with my gallant

partner in knavery, the noble Mufti.

We were forced to make a hasty departure

from the kingdom of Conger. And stay

out.

Well, Marmaduke, where to now?

Well, that's a good question.

We've been tossed out of every nation in

creation. Who who all all except this

one?

The empire of Bibbintucker.

Egad. Oh, it's it's not much,

but it's all that's left. No, to think

that I should sink as low as

Bibbintucker.

I who once swindled all of London town.

I simply cannot face Bibbintucker.

I'd sooner become honest. Oh, don't say

such a thing, my friend.

Here, here. Dry your tears.

What coarse linen, Mufti. Oh, it's not

mine. It was hanging there. What is it?

1 million grinklans for the tailor of

the emperor's new clothes.

Abu

what

1 million grinklans? Oh, yeah. Oh, it's

too bad we're not tailors. Not tailors?

You you you you you mean Well, why not?

Any well-dressed man can be a tailor.

But, what do you know about being

well-dressed? My dear Mufti, clothes

make the man. Everyone knows that. Why,

if I could only afford it, why, with my

taste, I could be the finest of

gentlemen.

Clothes make the man. With the proper

dressing, you'll be most impressing. You

could be a gentleman. Clothes make the

man.

Clothes make the man.

If his shoes are patent leather, no

matter what the weather, if a

bumbershoot he carries in the sun.

If he's buttoned to his chin, if his

collar has a pin,

well, that's the way a gentleman is

done.

Clothes make the man. With the proper

styling, you could be beguiling. I could

be a gentleman. Clothes make the man.

Clothes make the man.

Suddenly, I'm feeling very tailory.

Shall we? We shall. TO BIBINGTON TUCKER.

Clothes make the man. With the proper

dressing, we'll be most impressing. You

could be a gentleman. Clothes make the

man.

Clothes make the man.

So, this is Bibington Tucker.

Thank you. Thank you.

And welcome TO THE 174TH

monthly presentation of the award for

the best-dressed man in Bibington

Tucker.

MR. FINCH, ARE

EMPEROR CLOCKEN Locket for his

magnificent mob morning coat, Emperor

Clocken Locket for his spectacularly

silken summer suit,

Emperor Clocken Locket for his witty and

wonderful winter togs of wool.

May I have the sealed scroll, please?

I can't believe it. What a surprise. The

winner is EMPEROR CLOCKEN LOCKET.

>> THE MOMENT I SAW EMPEROR Clocken Locket,

I knew I had found my mark.

He was a ridiculous, vain fellow, and

wherever vanity rules, the fruit is sure

to be ripe for scoundrels. He was

followed by his royal pets, Archibald,

the cat,

and Percival, the ape.

And they, in turn, were followed by the

Imperial Council,

which consisted of the Prime Minister,

the Primer Minister, and the Primest

Minister.

And in the rear was a quite enchanting

young lady, whom I later found out was

the princess.

>> Jane, Jane, do stop dawdling. Come march

with me.

>> Daddy, for

crying out loud.

>> Fifty-six, Jane. Smile.

>> Thank you all.

Thank you all.

Oh, thank you all.

Thank you all. What can I say at a

moment like this?

I'd like to thank my designer, and my

tailors, and all the little

seamstresses, without whom this

wonderful moment could never have

happened.

>> Thank you. all.

Thank you.

>> And I'd also like to thank all the

little silkworms who worked so hard to

make the thread. And the people

>> Oh dear, this is going to go on all day.

>> Your highness.

>> Oh.

A handsome stranger and me with my shoes

off.

>> Uh uh uh

allow me.

>> Are you flirting with me?

>> No.

>> He is.

He is flirting with me.

>> Well, we hit it off splendidly. Poor

thing, she began to tell me the most

incredible story.

Till just 2 years ago, the emperor had

been a kind and good leader.

But then his wife passed away and he

became despondent and lonely. And his

faithful court jester, Jasper, was the

only one who could amuse him.

But Jasper had ambitions.

He wanted to rule the empire.

And he took advantage of the emperor's

grief. He flattered him, cajoled him,

got him interested in clothes. And soon

all the emperor could think of was his

ridiculous and all too expensive

wardrobe.

He neglected matters of state.

>> Out for the fitting.

>> Which Jasper, with his permission, was

only too happy to take over.

>> No, no, no. He has signed this, this.

>> Encouraged the emperor to spend vast

sums on clothes.

"Money to pay the tailors," he said.

But the tailors all worked for Jasper.

And he paid them slaves' wages.

And the rest he kept for himself. And

now

all that is left is the million

Grinklers, which will be used as a prize

for the tailor who makes the best suit.

>> He'll work out some way to get that, and

then he'll have all the money.

We rule the empire!

>> Not with me here.

Jasper has yet to meet the likes of

Marmaduke, the tailor.

>> What's going on down there?

>> Oh, Daddy, I finally got a bow. Isn't he

cute?

>> A

cute?

Great galloping gunny cloth.

HOW DARE YOU DRESS in such a fashion

before an emperor who who who simply

reeks with chic?

>> Mhm, you're right, Jasper. Arrest them

and toss them into the Boulevard of

Rogues.

>> Daddy, no! Not my bow!

>> Now, now, now, Jasper,

have you no sensibilities, my good man?

I am a magnificent tailor.

>> Well, you won't get a chance to do much

tailoring in the BOULEVARD OF

ROGUES.

>> A MILLION GRINKLERS FOR THE emperor's

new clothes.

>> A million Grinklers?

>> Mine for the taking.

And there I was, within the confines of

the Boulevard of Rogues. What a pity.

>> And stay

here till you learn to dress fit and

proper.

>> It wasn't a bad place, actually. In

fact, it was quite fantastic.

An incredible ghetto of beggars,

scoundrels, and the poor, where those

who could not afford to dress as the

emperor wanted were thrown in

willy-nilly with as magical a collection

of knaves, wenches, and harlots as ever

my eyes had seen.

So, Mufti, sew

while I find more material.

What have we here?

It's a little

a little

It's a little boy.

Well,

who are you?

Busky?

Child, we won't harm you.

Where are your parents?

You don't have any?

An orphan?

A tiny orphan condemned to the Boulevard

of Rogues. Outrageous.

Well then there, Busky, child, you will

no longer be an orphan. We hereby

de-orphan you. You now have a family.

Uncle Marmaduke and and and Grandpa

Mufti. Now, does that make you feel

better?

Pleasant as the Boulevard of Rogues was,

the thought of a million wrinklands was

even pleasanter.

And by the very next day, we had

finished the suit for the emperor.

And the following midnight,

we planned our escape. Come on, Mufti,

careful. Just here.

Yeah, no, no.

Here we are.

Just

be careful.

Ooh.

This

better work.

Or we'll then up as their

Halloween dinner.

>> Oh, Mufti, pray come look at all these

lovely creatures in the moat.

I adore them all.

Why, Mufti,

nothing is greater than the proud

alligator. Why, to me, he is more like a

brother.

And that's why I smile at each

crocodile, who in truth might be

somebody's mother.

And remember, Mufti, a puss that is

octer

could perhaps be a doctor

if the world only gave him the chance.

And the toothy old shark might desire,

as a lark,

to learn how to sing and to dance.

Yes, nothing is prettier or wiser or

wittier or brings lovelier dreams when

I'm sleepy

than my comrades afloat

in the splendid old moat.

Lovely creatures, all crawly and creepy.

Ah, yes.

A little sentiment in the right places

can sometimes make blood brothers out of

mortal enemies.

ONWARD TO THE PALACE.

There to deliver

THE EMPEROR'S new clothes.

>> You two, passing yourselves off as

tailors, eh?

>> Tailors?

Well, sir,

well, we're

we're not just tailors, sir.

>> no, we're not?

>> Well, we are tailors' tailors.

>> Tailors'

What do you mean?

>> When a tailor needs some button holing,

basting, hemming, collar rolling,

never does he do the job himself.

For a tailor, like a surgeon, wouldn't

ever do the work he couldn't. Never

would he do the job himself. When a

tailor needs a tailor, it can't be just

any tailor. It must be a tailor's

tailor. If the tailor's to be tailored,

it must be a tailor's tailor. If the

tailor's to be tailored.

When a minister is ministering,

much involved with head of stating,

he needs an advisor to advise.

Even clowns, with all their

dillydallying, need someone to keep them

laughing. Even bakers bake each other's

pies. When a tailor needs a tailor, it

can't be just any tailor. It must be a

tailor's tailor. If the tailor's to be

tailored, it must be a tailor's tailor.

If the tailor's to be tailored.

So it goes for doctors, lawyers,

sellers,

builders, bankers, ne'er-do-wellers.

Everybody needs another's hand.

For a necessary part of being has to do

with you and me. Am I seeing that you

understand?

When a tailor needs a tailor, it can't

be just any tailor. It must be a

tailor's tailor. If the tailor's to be

tailored, it must be a tailor's tailor.

If the tailor's to be tailored.

>> Tailored, uh tailor's, um uh

tailoring,

What they say makes sense.

>> Huh?

>> Oh, yes, of course. But, um

what have you brought me?

>> Your majesty,

observe. The suit is ghastly, absolutely

ghastly.

Away with you.

>> Uh

wait,

Your Majesty. Uh perhaps they have

something else to show you. Let me speak

to them.

I like your style.

But if the emperor paid a million for

those rags, the people might revolt.

No, this can't be just any suit. Have

you something else in your bag?

Something

very special.

>> Uh

very special.

Why yes,

of course.

We we do.

We do.

>> Then show it, and by doing so, prove

yourself to me.

>> Come, come. Show me my new suit of

clothes.

>> Uh

the suit. Yes, at once.

Um

Emperor,

may I call you Emp?

Emp, I can see you're not the type for a

ready-made right off the rack, Emp. For

you, what you need is a made-to-order.

>> Eh?

>> Ah,

obviously a tailor of taste and

breeding.

>> Who? Really?

>> Of course.

But show me the material. I insist on

seeing that.

>> Um

a sample. Uh

after hearing me, wants a sample.

>> Oh, sample he wants a sample.

>> Uh very well, Emp.

But first I've got to let you in on a

trade secret.

>> Oh,

I love secrets.

>> Yes.

This cloth

>> Yes.

>> This cloth

>> Yes.

>> It's

enchanted cloth.

>> Enchanted?

>> Enchanted?

Superb.

>> Enchanted?

>> Enchanted?

>> Enchanted?

>> Enchanted?

Enchanted?

>> It's enchanted, of

course.

>> Then I must have it. I must.

>> One moment, Your Majesty.

How is it enchanted?

>> Uh

How is it enchanted?

>> Who What are you looking at me for?

>> It is enchanted because

it's invisible.

Invisible to anyone who is very stupid

or unfit to hold office.

>> What?

Invisible to anyone who is very stupid

>> or unfit to hold office.

>> I must see it at once. At once.

>> Show it to him, OH WORTHY TAILOR. GO ON,

SHOW IT TO HIM.

>> VERY WELL.

YOU UNDERSTAND, of course, this is just

a sample. I will have to weave the rest

once I get the commission.

>> Oh, yes, yes. Oh, do get on with it.

>> Behold

enchanted cloth.

>> Magnificent.

Beautiful.

>> What?

What?

>> Oh, mighty emperor, most fit to hold

office in all the world. Is it not

exquisite?

>> Yes, it's quite

quite Yes.

Well, make me a suit of that enchanted

whatever it is. I'm sure I should be

able to see That is, I'm sure that I

shall just love the finished garment.

>> Well, I'm not worried because, quite

frankly, Imp,

it's you.

>> Yes.

>> When a tailor needs a tailor, it can't

be just any tailor. It must be a

tailor's tailor. If the tailor is stupid

tailor, it must be a tailor's tailor if

the tailor IS STUPID TAILOR.

>> POOR Emperor Clockenlocker.

The fact that he couldn't see our

enchanted cloth meant only one thing as

far as the emperor was concerned.

>> It must be that I'm stupid

and unfit to rule.

Who says so?

I can see that cloth. It's as plain as

the nose on my face.

Oh god.

Oh.

Oh dear.

What am I worried about?

I am the ruler of this land. And if I

choose to see the cloth,

I will.

I can do anything I please. That's the

fun thing about being an emperor. I can

see whatever I want to see. I see the

tinsel,

the sparkle,

and the glitter.

It's never

the bitter

for me.

Through rose-colored

glasses,

a pretty world

passes.

I see

what I want

to see.

I hear the chatter,

the sound and all that matters,

but none of it matters

to me.

I'm safe

in my bubble

from all of the trouble

I see

what I want to see.

I'm afraid

and quite certain

if I raise the curtain

I'll see things I don't want

to see.

The tinsel

will tarnish

and sparkles

cease to glitter

and sweet will be bitter

for me.

So, give me my blinders

and save your reminders.

I see

what I want to see.

I see

what I want

to see.

Jasper the clown saw to it that we were

set up in sumptuous quarters. We took

the lad Buskion as our apprentice and

our every wish was a command. It was,

all in all, a delightful way to make a

million.

And one of the pleasantest things about

living in the palace

was getting to know the fair Princess

Jean.

>> Strike!

That's 19 games for and none for you.

Let's try to even the score.

>> Another game?

>> And as we got to know each other better,

she confided in me even more.

>> I'm getting real uneasy about Jasper.

Lately he's been making eyes at me.

It's almost LIKE HE'S IN LOVE WITH ME.

I ask myself, why would a clown fall in

love with a princess?

Stroke. Stroke. Stroke.

And I figured out why. Even if he has

all the money in the treasury, he can't

really rule the land unless he marries

into the royal family. That's me.

Stroke. Stroke.

>> Have no fear.

I won't let Jasper have you, my love.

>> Oh, Marmaduke, I feel so safe

with a hero like you around.

>> I don't like you spending so much time

WITH THE PRINCESS JANE.

>> YEAH, but but

>> Silence. Do as I tell you or I WILL HAVE

YOUR HEAD.

Jane and the empire will be mine.

>> But but but what if she doesn't love

you?

>> She can be tricked into a wedding.

>> Tricked? HOW?

>> YOU'LL FIND THAT OUT WHEN I WANT YOU TO.

>> WELL, every day we continued to work on

the suit that wasn't there.

And every night the emperor studied his

arithmetic and spelling and history

until dawn, trying desperately to become

less stupid and fit to rule.

And every morning

Oh, I've got to see it. I've just got to

be able to see it.

Well, tailors, how goes the work? All

silky and brocady, I trust? You can see

for yourself, sir.

Great shimmering satchel. I beg pardon,

sir. Oh, um,

oh, it's lovely. It's quite a

great.

Quite.

Quite good.

Uh, quite, uh, quintessentially quite.

Great progress. Your, uh, progress is,

uh,

progressing very, um,

progressively. Um, uh, how long will you

take to finish? Well, making such a suit

is quite an involved operation. How

involved?

Well, in my business it's always the

same every year.

First we have the mind defining what to

make and what design it.

Then the sketching, thinking, thinking,

lots of thinking, heavy thinking.

Suddenly from inspiration we have got a

new creation. Everything begins to

bustle. Everyone begins to hustle.

Creation.

Lots of scissors snipping, snipping,

needles knitting, clicking, clicking. If

it's wrong, there's ripping, ripping. If

it's right, there's color picking.

Braiding, pinning, fingers flipping for

tomorrow is the fitting. zipper snaps,

perhaps a toggle or the mind begins to

babble.

Creation.

Finished every alteration.

There it hangs, our new creation. Now

begins the finger biting. Will they find

the look exciting? Will the papers all

be saying "Beautiful couturier"? Soon

the moment all is ready, even Charlotte

nerves are steady.

Creation.

Creation.

Creation.

>> All that? Oh, but I wanted the suit by

next week.

>> Oh, don't worry, you'll have it, YOU'LL

HAVE IT.

>> CREATION.

>> GREAT MUDDLED MADRAS.

What does Marmaduke want?

>> The hand of your daughter in marriage.

>> But

But Jane is all I have. We belong

together. I couldn't break up the set.

>> Don't you want that enchanted suit? One

would think you couldn't see it.

>> Of course I can see it. And to see it is

to want it. I must have it.

>> Think of it this way. You're not losing

a daughter, you're gaining a tailor.

>> And then at last it was time for the

final fitting.

>> Emperor Clock and Locker,

your new suit.

>> Well,

what do you think?

>> Oh,

yes. Oh, yes. Yes, yes, indeed.

>> Of course it's here, only basted

together. Well, we may have to order the

sleeves.

Oh, what do you think of the cuffs?

>> Uh,

fine. It's just fine.

>> Steady, man, that's the collar.

>> How does it feel? Oh, lovely.

>> Yes, as light as a very thin air.

>> Are the sleeves too long?

>> I don't think so. Oh, no.

>> Why, they hang down to your kneecap.

>> Well, perhaps a little too long.

>> Good gracious. I think I see a

cross-stitch.

>> No, that's a mosquito.

>> Got it.

>> After that session, the midnight oil was

really burned.

>> This has gone FAR ENOUGH. I'M GROWING

IMPATIENT. IT'S time that suit WAS

FINISHED.

>> BUT, MY dear Jasper, we can't rush the

job. I mean, we're getting paid a

million and a princess.

>> I'm glad you brought that up. I've

decided that you will give the princess

to me.

>> You? But, she loves me.

>> The princess shall be mine. Disobey me,

and the results will be disastrous. See

that cannon outside the window?

It is pointed directly at the Boulevard

of Rogues. If you do not do as I tell

you, my faithful Ivan will fire it, and

all your friends will be destroyed.

>> What What What can I say, old friend?

At least have the million.

>> That's another thing. You will be paid

exactly one greenklin each for your

trouble. The rest you will turn over to

me. Understand? With the entire treasury

in my pocket and the princess AS MY

BRIDE, I'LL BE SURE TO RULE THE EMPIRE.

>> WELL, you can bet your bobbin's that we

weren't going to let Jasper get away

with 999,998

Grinklings

and one princess.

So,

we made secret plans.

Got the message.

Of course, we ate the evidence.

>> Your Majesty,

the suit is finished. You may pick it up

at noon.

>> Oh.

Well,

I then paid a call on the Princess Jane,

who was being fitted for her wedding

gown.

>> Oh, Jeepers, Marmaduke. I can't wait

until after we're married.

But you really think you'll be able to

carry it off? I mean, being a gentleman

at court and all that?

>> Why, whatever do you mean?

>> Well, a prince consort has got to be a

gentleman.

>> My dear Princess Jane, with a million

Grinklings and you, I could be anything.

I could be a gentleman. Why not?

>> WHY NOT?

>> ALL you have to do is look the part.

>> Look the part?

>> Watch your P's and Q's and learn to play

croquet.

>> Croquet?

>> Okay.

All you have to learn is which is which.

All you need is money to be real.

>> You could be a baron or an earl.

>> Or an earl.

>> AND BE PART OF ALL THE social world.

>> A social world.

Learn to dance and do the minuet.

>> Minuet?

>> You bet.

All you have to learn is which is which.

All you need is money to BE RICH.

>> YOU'LL SPEND YOUR AFTERNOONS AT TEA.

A GENTLEMAN

WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH ME.

>> Never will I use a word like gent.

>> I might

END UP

IN

PARLIAMENT.

>> BE AN ADMIRAL OF the Admiralty.

>> Admiralty.

You'll say quite instead of yes siree.

>> Yes siree.

I could be a minister and SNIFF THAT

STUFF.

>> THAT STUFF?

IT'S STUFF.

>> ENOUGH.

ALL YOU HAVE TO LEARN IS WHICH is which.

All you need is money to be rich.

All you need is money to be rich.

>> Jane gave me the emperor's brass statues

and I had Mufti sawed them into enough

small pieces to fill a sack.

Finally at noon time, the emperor called

to pick up his completed suit.

Your majesty.

The emperor's new clothes.

>> Well.

Heavendy Heading Bone.

I am

I've never seen such a wonderful suit.

The million is yours.

Now, Mufti and I had planned to lower

the bag of real gold into the garden and

bury it there. But, our plans went

slightly astray. Luckily, we had

Princess Jane posted as a lookout.

>> Jasper is on his way.

>> Jasper?

Oh, my goodness, he's early.

Hide this gold.

Oh, my my, how can you hide a million

green coins?

>> There's a way, there's a way. In the

cannon.

1 million green coins.

>> I'll count it when I have the time. The

emperor is about to show his new suit.

Take it away.

>> Well,

I'm ready.

Fully dressed.

>> Ah, the moment of moments. The emperor's

NEW CLOTHES.

>> NOW, NOBODY anywhere ever wants to be

thought a fool or unfit for his office

in life. And so, wherever the emperor

went that most curious afternoon, after

they got over the initial shock that is,

they all agreed that the garments were

beautiful and that beyond a shadow of a

doubt,

>> clothes make the man. With the proper

dressing, you'll be most impressive. You

could be a gentleman.

>> Clothes make the man.

Clothes make the man.

>> If his shoes are of patent leather, no

matter what the weather, if a bumper

shoot he carries in the sun.

If he's buttoned to his chin, if his

collar has a pin,

well, that's the way a gentleman is

done.

>> Clothes make the man.

With the proper styling, you can be the

styling,

be a gentleman.

Clothes make the man.

CLOTHES MAKE THE MAN.

CLOTHES make the man.

With the proper dressing,

you'll be most impressive, you'll

be a gentleman.

CLOTHES MAKE THE MAN.

CLOTHES MAKE THE MAN.

>> AND NOW IT IS TIME to award the grand

prize, Your Majesty.

>> Eh? Uh oh, yes.

Jane.

Princess Jane.

>> Go on with it. GO ON AS WE REHEARSED IT,

or else.

>> Okay. Okay.

Your Imperialness,

I find I cannot accept the hand of the

princess

as I have forgotten a

rather minor detail waiting for me at

home.

My wife.

>> Great tropical wood stud.

>> And so, I hereby transfer my prize

to

to

>> I accept.

>> But but

>> It was obvious to one and all that

Princess Jane was heartbroken. And

beneath that veil

she was sobbing her eyes out.

>> I now pronounce you clown and wife.

Kiss the bride.

>> What?

The apprentice.

What are you doing here?

Well, I don't see what you've got to

laugh about.

You just married a clown.

You're You're laughing at me?

Why? What's funny about me?

>> You're naked, sir.

>> What?

A? Speak up.

>> You're naked.

>> I don't follow. I'm what?

>> You're You're naked.

You

You

don't don't have any clothes on.

>> No clothes?

Naked?

Naked?

Barely.

Nudely.

Nakedly.

Naked.

Great Scott, Princess Aura.

I've been duped.

Oh, for pity's sake.

Goodbye.

This is all your fault.

>> Oh, dear.

>> You encouraged that scoundrel.

>> I I can explain everything.

>> Enough. You are banished from

Bimbotucker

forever. Away with him. And as for you

back to the Boulevard of Rogues. Take

him away.

Oh.

Oh, is there no one I can trust? Where

is my daughter?

Where is the Princess Jane?

Dear Daddy,

first of all, don't get a chill.

Second of all,

>> I am taking refuge in the Boulevard of

Rogues, where I'm to wed Marmaduke later

today.

>> Wed Marmaduke? I forbid it.

P.S.

>> Please don't forbid it, because I love

him very much.

>> She does?

>> Yes, I do.

>> Well, then, I suppose that changes

things.

Jane deserves happiness after the way I

have ignored her.

Go to them. Tell them they have my

blessing, and that I shall attend their

wedding.

Dressed in this outfit I now wear.

I ordered these fool's raiment. I

approved of them and put them on.

And so,

I will wear them for the rest of the

day.

Sound the trumpets. Beat the drums, so

that the whole land shall know of my

profound folly.

Let the parade continue.

>> The emperor was true to his words. And

on that day, as the trumpets blared and

the drums rolled, he marched before the

entire population of

Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo.

And without adding a stitch, he came to

our wedding and gave his blessings.

But you know,

somehow, perhaps because he was finally

being honest with himself,

he was able to hold his head up proudly.

And that silly emperor

achieved a certain grace and dignity.

And everyone said

that the emperor's new clothes were the

most magnificent he'd ever owned.

He and everyone else were certain to

live happily ever after.

>> THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK. IVAN! IVAN! FIRE!

>> YES, SO MASTER.

>> OH, WELL. Easy come, easy go.

Now, I've heard of fairy tales ending

happily before, but that was absolutely

wonderful, especially for me.

Well, it was absolutely wonderful

playing Marmaduke that character but con

man, but now back to reality.

Well, it's me again.

We do hope you've enjoyed it and I'd

like to thank our guest Cyril Richard

who played the emperor and Imogene Coca

who played Princess Jane. And as for

you, you better come along with me.

>> There's a world of enchantment to see.

Come along

with me.

Through my ears you will hear different

sounds. Through my

eyes you'll see.

We'll enchant your every single sense.

Your imagination

will become immense. Your capacity

to dream

will stretch to the extreme.

There's a world of enchantment to see.

Come along

with me.
