He is appropriately in the MGM trophy room to introduce the short The Story of Alfred Nobel. He is visited by young Leo, who wants George to showcase his friends Screwball Squirrel and Meathhead as they duke it out in animated short Screwball Squirrel. And he visits with Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse on the set of It's Always Fair Weather. Gene is featured in the "I Like Myself" roller skating musical number from the movie. Written by Huggo See less
