This is, obviously, a Japanese TV show that tried to teach English to the homelanders. It was called "Zuiikin English" or something like that.

The idea was this: First, they demonstrate English-speaking situations in which the key phrases would be necessary. Hence, the scene with the people getting robbed.

Then -- in one of those mildly bizarre, Eastern-tinged philosophical ideas that kind of makes sense if you think about it too long -- the girls come on, and do exercise routines. The point of each routine is that the specific movements, when coupled with reheasing the phrase in rhythm, will help the student learn and memorize English phrases more effectively.

I'm not making one shred of this up. I may be a little unclear on the specifics of the Eastern principles at work here, but I'm in the ballpark. Google "Zuiikin," or try looking it up on YouTube. Or read this.

If you children are really, really well-behaved, I'll let you see the Darth Vader thing.
