A puppet king, Vittorio Emanuele, pushes forward the shapely brunette in the bathing costume. "Only you, sweet Capitalism, can save us," he says. The dragon growls ferociously at the brunette and starts to wind itself around her body. She moves seductively within its coils, rubbing her breasts against its body.
