Once one puppet acts on his evil impulses, is it really surprising that this kind of behavior could spread like a contagion to other puppets? It's a rhetorical question, you don't need to write in.
It's becoming clear what happened: The Pirate stole The Princess's crown, has held it in his Lair under the Bridge of Misery, diverted the intrepid (and very vain) Sailor while the Pirate's friend, The Penguin, now clearly confused and thinking that the crown was simply up for grabs, offered it to the Emperor Penguin. The Emperor Penguin accepted the crown, thinking, as so many small-minded puppets will, that he is an actual Emperor. That can happen when puppets cut themselves off from he rest of the world and feel superior.
Speaking of superior, The Monkey and his Mate have been dispatched to hang above The Pirate's Lair and see if they are clever enough to find a way to 1) get the crown back for The Princess and 2) get The Pirate to behave a little better.
(We don't expect the Pirate will stop acting like a pirate, we just want to let him know my lawyers are better than his lawyers.)
So, while The Pirate plots further mischief with the puppets he thinks are under his control, let us root for The Monkey and his Mate to be as clever as the thieves are brazen.
