Plot

Deep in the desert, Woody is a member of the French Foreign Legion. He must protect the voluptuous Princess Salami whom Sheik el Rancid (Buzz Buzzard) wants to kidnap to add to his harem, which already consists of 750 wives.

Woody falls in love with her after seeing the hourglass-figured woman Belly dance. Sheik el Rancid kidnaps her and takes her to his palace, leading Woody to come to her rescue.

Notes

When Woody sees Princess Salami dancing, his eyes bulge out and he bounces up and down for joy. This is very similar to how he reacted when he heard Gorgeous Gal's sexy voice on the phone in A Fine Feathered Frenzy after she invited him over to her mansion by saying, "Mmmm, I love Woodpeckers! There's only one thing on my mind, sweetie: you! Come on over, dream boy. I'll be waiting!" A new ending theme was first heard.

gollark: Turing completeness means it can simulate any Turing machine, or something, and therefore any other TC thing.
gollark: That one command is just "increment the accumulator", and at the end of execution the output is then taken as a number which is converted to *binary* and interpreted however you like. So just unary encoding reworded slightly.
gollark: You can do Turing completeness in one command. Technically.
gollark: All necessary computation and storage is instead being offloaded to users.
gollark: Our infinitely powerful computer is currently nonexistent for legal reasons.
