An orange creature is put in a position of authority after using demagoguery to whip up fear in the populace against those bad hombres, the jagulars. He backs up the big lie by running a false flag operation. A coup is orchestrated through a deep state operation run by a bitter, long-eared rival.

Tigger's staggering narcissism makes the heel turn quite believable. For another Tigger attempt at tyranny, be sure to check out Tigger Takes Over from the My Very First Winnie the Pooh series.

This is an adaptation of The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh animated cartoon segment "King of the Beasties" (season 1, episode 17, originally aired Jan. 7, 1989, show credits: story by Mark Zaslove; written by Carter Crocker; directed by Karl Geurs, David Block, Terence Harrison, and Bob Zamboni.) After reading the book, I took the opportunity to rewatch the segment on Disney+. The adaptation has expunged Christopher Robin and some meta gags that start the show and played around with the order of events, but it is pretty faithful otherwise.
