A second episode for Father of the Pride sets a very good tone for the show. This is a fine piece of comedy. You can't miss it.

"Perfect"

By beno_1990, Jul 04, 2005

With Larry excited about his new job promotion to lead lion, Siegfried and Roy plan to show a live performance on the Today show. This puts a lot of pressure on Larry when everyone shows that they are depending on him, and Sarmoti expects Larry not to fail to redeem Lions after his show failure 30 years previous on the Today show. But when Larry can't pull the lever in rehearsal, Siegfried and Roy pull Larry out and put Blake in, letting everyone down. How can Larry redeem himself as not being a complete failiure?
