History Headscratchers / TheEmperorsNewGroove

** Well, since she was a royal advisor--if not THE royal advisor--I always assumed she just lived in the palace like most of the other servants. She probably made some excuse about needing time to get her things, clear out her old room, etc.

* I was wondering what Yzma was still doing inside the palace at dinnertime (DINNERTIME!) if Kuzco had already fired her earlier that day...

* In the sequel, Kronk tells the story of how he lost both the house and the girl his father had always wanted him to have, but that he did so by choosing to do the right thing instead...but in the case of the girlfriend he lost, Ms. Birdwell, did he really need to sacrifice their relationship in order to protect Tipo? His reasoning for it is that he insisted that his troop members "do whatever it takes to win", but Tipo really should've known the difference between giving it everything he had and cheating by sabotaging the competition. Even worse is that Kronk doesn't even ''reprimand'' Tipo for what he did - he just seems to accept complete responsibility for it even though it wasn't his fault.

* During the diner scene, we witness Kronk's first working day in Mudka's Hut's kitchen. Despite being busy with Yzma and their mission to find Kuzco, it seems the restaurant finally found a cook much more skilled and lighter than the previous one. Despite the good news, he leaves the diner a few minutes later along with Yzma, her new sombrero hat and a birthday cake slice, leaving Mudka's Meat Hut without a cook and no one to replace him any sooner. I just wonder how the diner managed to keep its business running without Kronk's aid, at least before he would have decided to restart his cooking career after the ending of the first movie.

* Where does Kronk live after he (presumably) got kicked out of the palace? According to Yzma he doesn't even own a fixer-upper.

** Yeah but Kuzco and Pacha get through the crocs with ease, which makes that lever even ''more'' useless.

** Yzma raised Kuzco and was planning to use him as her PuppetKing, so I don't doubt that she, er, [[FridgeHorror removed them from the picture]].

* What happened to Kuzco's parents?

** I always assumed it was in case of an intruder and that Kronk constantly pulling the wrong lever was just {{Rule of Funny}}

** After Pacha reunites with Kuzco he specifically mentions that they need to head back to the house for supplies. As for what supplies these were and why they were worth wasting an entire trip going back to get them, you've got me.

* Why does she even ''have'' that lever?

** Yzma hitched a ride from her Friends On the Other Side.

* How ''did'' they get there? They certainly got me...

** At the end of the scene where the bridge collapses, Pacha mentions they'll have to take the long way to Kuzco's palace. Perhaps the route involved doubling back to near where they started.

* Why were they near Pacha's house around Kuzco's HeelRealization? Didn't they travel at all?

** Perhaps the bug that Tepo ate wasn't actually meant to be part of the meal.

* So Tepo(SP?) feels the need to tell his dad he ate a bug and Pacha then makes a joke that implies this is, in fact, not a normal thing. Then they go to a restraunt and Pacha digs into a bug as if it's a delicacy.

***** I think the Bob's Big Boy-esque resturant might be what's throwing them off. I just think everyone should remember that [[MST3KMantra it's just an animated movie]], though.

**** I thought the movie made it clear that it was set in the Incan Empire before the Conquistadors arrived.

* Does ''TheEmperorsNewGroove'' take place in a Flintstone-like anachronistic past, or does it take place in a village of present-day Native Mexicans?
