...Caribbean Jiminy Cricket, fussing avuncularly over Ariel but bound to break into calypso croon. Louis the French chef (Rene Auberjonois) brings sadistic elan to his dicing, flaying and serving of les poissons. Ursula (Pat Carroll) the sea witch is a fat, shimmying squid with malefic revenge in mind -- the sort of Disney horror queen who has given kids nightmares for a half-century.

...emerged from the hospital. Perhaps the dutiful husband had endured enough. Even within his own family, patience with Kitty was wearing thin. There was a certain irony to that. Kitty has for months wanted her husband to run for President again. Urgently, she pressed him to keep his mind open about 1992. Now, with her own vulnerabilities so drastically exposed, that goal seemed fainter than ever...
