  • Napoleon carries on about his miseries and insecurities—lots of musings about great conquerors of history and how short they all were—as he drinks himself into a nice blackout.
  • The dwarves, adorned in the fineries of French generals, start nabbing the treasures surrounding the table.
  • One of the dwarves, Strutter (Malcolm Dixon), checks the way out—a hole in time and space—before he returns to fetch his comrades in arms.
  • The real generals, shivering in their Underoos, try to stop the escaping thieves but to no avail. They slip into the portal.
