** A deleted scene, depicting the guards destroying a cardboard cutout of Pacha's village, is surprisingly intense and shows what would happen had [[RapePillageAndBurn Kuzco gone through with destroying it.]] Even scarier is the fact that it more or less resembles a ''pogrom''[[note]] For those unfamiliar with the term, a pogrom is, in its basic form, a riot aimed at particular ethnic groups in order to expel or outright massacre them. This word comes to us from Russia who preformed these on their Jewish populations on a regular basis. Think the opening of ''WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTail''[[/note]].

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzDG6ukx9kA There's]] something disturbingly sociopathic about Kuzco cheerily saying he plans to destroy Pacha's village all to build a birthday summer home to his ego and does not care if Pacha, his family, and his village have lived there for generations and will be homeless or end up dying from having nowhere else to go after the fact. Not too far from what happened to many by tyrannical rulers in RealLife [[TruthInTelevision as history will tell you.]] The sing song tone he has about ruining lives really clinches that the young emperor was as evil as Yzma at one point.

** The simple fact that [[NiceJobFixingItVillain if not for Yzma]], Kuzco would have crossed the MoralEventHorizon and become an EvilOverlord, remember, he was planning on destroying the village the day after, he pulled ahead of the MEH deadline by a matter of ''hours''.

Kuzco's [[EvenEvilHasStandards understandable reaction]] to the scene is the quote for this page.

* It's rather disturbing to consider that the only thing that prevented Yzma from actually killing Kuzco was that the label on the vial was peeling off and Kronk mistook it for poison. Imagine if they had been labeled correctly.

** Also, the whole reason Kuzco's surrounded by jaguars? He [[KickTheDog threw an acorn at a squirrel's head just to be rude]], and after he trips and falls into the clearing where the jaguars are sleeping, the squirrel follows him, inflates a balloon which he ties in the shape of Kuzco, and then [[BewareTheSillyOnes pops it with a thorn]], taking sheer joy in Kuzco's horrified expression. Granted, the pop fails to wake the jaguars up... but then [[TooDumbToLive Kuzco]] makes the mistake of shouting "HAH!" to taunt the squirrel afterwards, and that ''does'' wake them up. And the jaguars wake up '''mad'''.
