Summary: This is a puppet show video done with stuffed animals in Taiwanese puppetry style. Pandora is guarding a box but nobody knows what's in the box. Monkey King thinks it's money, but Jim thinks it's something evil. Barry, once Monkey King's friend, decides to protect Pandora against the king. Finally God comes to stop all the madness. After God asks, Pandora tells everybody what's really in the box. Of course, all the previous guesses are wrong. The lesson is that you should never think outside the box before you look inside the box. Or, base decisions on facts rather than false assumptions. This video spoofs Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and features an impressive kung-fu routine between stuffed animals.
