The chaotic match ends in Leonidas' self-proclaimed victory, but Mr. Browne swaps the medallion with his referee whistle as he leaves, and the group escapes, Miss Price turning Leonidas into a white rabbit when he tries to chase them.

Although the clip is clearly staged for publicity purposes, there's something sad about seeing a gray-haired, clean-shaven Tomlinson delivering a single slow verse for conductor Irwin Kostal. Some of the deleted footage was either lost or in need of work and a fair amount of dialogue had to be re-recorded. But Disney arrived at a presentation running 139 minutes with new restoration credits. This was the version used on the movie's first DVD release (2001's 30th Anniversary Edition). It is used again on next week's new DVD, the dopily-titled Enchanted Musical Edition.
