 * Background: "Mallenge is the name of a horse that was famous." When Speed says this a famous painting of Napoleon Bonaparte on his horse, Marengo, is shown. Apparently, the word "marengo" must have looked more Japanese than French in the original script and was translated as "mallenge." Marengo is actually an Italian place name, site of a very successful battle for the general. Both Napoleon's horse and the culinary dish Chicken Marengo were named as a result.
