A waterspout off the port bow.

But it proved to be

the Juan Fernandez Islands

where Robinson Crusoe once lived.

And still does, apparently.

Four bells and all's well.

According to Pablo's chart,

he should be nearing Via del Mar.

And strangely enough,

that's just where he is.

He sailed past Lima,

the capital of Peru,

hugging the coastline

with a tenacity of purpose

seldom found in a penguin.

One day, his telescope picked out

a city high up on top of a mountain.

The map said it was Quito.

And it was right smack

on the equator.

It wasn't as easy to cross,

but with a little help from Neptune,

he made it.

Making a left turn,

he followed the equator,

headed for the Galapagos Islands.

Ah, that good old sun!

Pablo felt

he'd never get enough of it.

He hadn't counted on this.

Things looked pretty bad.

Help! Man the pumps!

She's sprung a leak.

Pipe all hands on deck! Do things!

Get going! Take to the lifeboats!

Abandon ship!

Unruffle the mizzenmast

and man the poops.

Don't just stand there. Get going!

Swab the decks and... Heavens!

Look. What's that?

Just what he's been looking for.

Pablo has finally reached

the isle of his dreams.

And, so as the warm tropical sun

sinks slowly in the west,

we leave little Pablo,

a bird in paradise,

a picture of health

in his new coat of tan.

He should be

the happiest penguin in the world.

Only, sometimes,

he gets to thinking...

Christmas is a special time when

miraculous things can happen.

It was that way

for a little boy named Arthur

whom everybody called Wart.

Legend tells us that

it was during the Christmas season

that something happened to him

that would change his life forever.

Let's go far back in time

to merry old England

when knighthood was in flower

and miraculous things did happen.

Here's to victory in London

for my son, Kay.

Sir Kay.

I've been knighted, don't forget.

Of course, son, of course.

Here's to Sir Kay. And, who knows,

the future king of all England.

Watch it, will you?

Kay, the king?

What a dreadful thought.

Sir Ector!

Hobbs has come down

with the mumps.

He's all puffed up like a toad.

Then Kay will need another squire,

hang it all.

- Wart, you're it.

- I'm what, sir?

- Kay's squire. You're off to London.

- Sir Ector.

For the crown of all England,

let the tournament begin.

Kay! Now it's up to the swords.

Swords? Oh, no!

- Kay?

- What?

I forgot your sword.

Forgot my sword?

I left it back at the inn.

Why, you bumbling little fool. I...

You'd better get it

or don't you dare come back.

Let me in. Let me in.

Somebody, please. Please, let me in.

It's no use, boy.

They've all gone to the tournament.
