Project Poncho is coming to Kuzco Academy and every student must make a poncho for the contest for their assignment. Kuzco desperately wants to win so he can take Malina on a "romantic getaway" to Lima, so he tries to steal other people's ponchos. After seeing Guaca's poncho, Kuzco convinces him to let him take it. Meanwhile, Yzma also enters the contest, and asks for the help of two silk worms to help her. However, when she refuses to pay, they decide to make a fool out of her.
