you were right i cheated winning felt
great at first
and then it didn't feel so great because
i knew
i didn't really win wow
and i realized how much i hate it if
someone did that to me
what about the alley cats i told them
they weren't too happy about it i bet it
was really hard telling everyone what
you did
it was but it felt a lot worse
pretending i had won
so what do you say to a little rematch
[Music]
anytime
it is time for everyone to sample some
of the finest food in all of china
[Applause]
[Music]
finally
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
two tailors are calling at the palace
gate they say they can make robes out of
extraordinary silk and satin
send them away i have no interest in new
clothes
but my dear it has been a long time
since you had new robes
and of course you must keep up your
image
hmm bring in the tailors
[Music]
your magistrate we have discovered how
to weave a magical new cloth
really what's so magical about it
well your grace the colors and patterns
of this cloth are extremely beautiful
but the most magical quality they
possess is that of being
invisible invisible
reader show these men out
of all those things oh your grace one
more moment
please let me explain you see the cloth
is only invisible to someone who is
foolish
you know my darling something like this
could really come in handy
it most certainly could my delectable
if i had my robes cut from this material
i would be able to tell from their
reaction which one of my subjects are
honest and smart
and which are foolish it's brilliant
reader give my imperial tailors whatever
they need
[Music]
ah can you believe it 2 000 gold coins
quiet we must get to work
[Laughter]
[Music]
it's really all so exciting my dear your
exquisite new robes are the talk of the
town
but when do you think we will get to see
the magical cloth
soon dear soon but if you're so
anxious why don't you go down to the
weaving room and have a look for
yourself
well i would but i am afraid
that you wouldn't be able to see the
claw are you suggesting that i
am foolish oh no my sweetness not at all
no what i was saying was um
well i'm much too busy to go down there
yes that's it so i will send somebody
else
reader
[Music]
oh isn't this class beautiful
yes how do you like it so far well um
it's very beautiful yes of course
very beautiful indeed why i've never
seen such exquisite cloth
it's quite uh quite
indescribable would you like to touch it
yes we'd love for you to feel the
extraordinary delicacy of this cloth
but you must be very careful these
silken threads are exceptionally
delicate
are your hands clean well uh i i think
uh after all one speck of dura oil and
we shall have to completely start over
my mind wouldn't your magistrate be
beside himself if that happened
um well no thank you then i don't
need to touch it just seeing it has been
quite enough for one day
yes quite enough but i saw nothing
i must be a fool well
how does it look is it simply gorgeous
well well it's hard to describe
it's so so out with it man it's
amazing your grace i've never seen
anything like it before
ever how simply marvelous
but i saw nothing am i a fool
what wonderful news yes
the new fabric is stupendous
you know dear i think i will go and see
your beautiful new robes while they are
still in progress
absolutely please do
[Music]
dear prepare yourself for the most
exquisite robes you have ever seen
[Music]
[Laughter]
i am so worried everyone has been
able to see the cloth i guess there are
no fools in my palace
ah but saguaro the question is will i be
able to see the rules
i really don't know why he's so worried
if everybody else has seen the fabric
why shouldn't he maybe he's afraid he's
a fool
donggua please he is our master mama
papa i have something to tell you what
is it sagua
yes agua what's wrong well you see
i'm afraid that i'm the one who's a fool
why would you say that because i've
looked into that weaving room a whole
bunch of times
and i can never see any cloth on those
looms oh there you have it straight from
the cat's mouth
something is wrong here yes very wrong
our sagua is no fool that's for sure
perhaps we should take a closer look
ourselves
that's funny
[Laughter]
i like that one
this is certainly the life ah
yes i'll be sad when we have to move on
to the next sucker
or um palace this is by far the nicest
place we've ever been
and i've never seen so many people
trying not to look foolish
oh dear this is terrible are we
all fools don't be silly
these guys are cheaters i wish there was
something we could do
[Music]
i'm the only one who can't see the robes
i must be the only fool here how ironic
well your grace do you like the robes
yes your grace have we met your wildest
expectations
why yes you have i am
absolutely speechless
well in that case let's try them on
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
oh
yes it's true i am a fool
i must be the only one
these new robes are the most exquisite
ever before made
to commemorate this extraordinary
occasion i hereby commission
one of my cats to paint a new portrait
of me in these spectacular new robes
at least i will then know what they look
like sagua
ah sagua you are such a wonderful artist
will you paint my portrait
[Music]
what should i do just paint what you see
yes be honest now's your chance to help
the magistrate just like you wanted
wow okay here goes
[Applause]
i can't believe it dear and we always
thought saguaro was so smart
clearly she is a fool
well if sagua is a fool then i must be
one too
for i cannot see the cloth either
excellency
i am also a fool my dear
i'm afraid that i also must confess
that i am relax
all of you don't you see
saguaros painted the truth there are no
robes
there is no magical cloth
we have been played like an are who read
up
cats take down my new rule let it be
hereby decreed
that any person or persons who try to
deceive
anybody in this court or in this village
shall be fined
shall be fined reader how much did we
pay these men
2 000 gold coins are magistrate well
then
anybody who deceives shall be fined 2
000 gold coins and one more thing
can you really weave and so yes your
grace
marvelous in that case i hereby decree
that you make new robes for everyone in
the palace including my
fine cats yes your grace
now let's see who is the fool
[Laughter]
read up collect the fine from those two
tailors
and then escort them back to their
weaving room so they can get right to
work
it is funny isn't it we were all so
afraid of looking foolish
that we refused to believe what we saw
or in this case
what we didn't see to think it took a
kitten to show us the truth
so here's to sagua of china
