[I Squeakend at Bucky's] Because Kuzco is in danger of failing the squirrel speech course, Moleguaco -who fears Yzma would be an even worse empress- gives him Bucky as a private tutor. The only thing that can make him study is - Malina's interest in the animal. Kronk refuses to help Yzma hurt it. [II- Kuzco Fever] Kuzco discovers a loophole in the freezing of his imperial 'treasury trust fund': danger to the imperial health. He fakes to be ill, but Yzma is determined to make it real, so he'll miss months of classes and fail.
