Did you want us to comment here with the answer to the question? If so, the story connects to A&P with the whole idea of the "real world". Harrison wanted to face the "real world" but he wasn't quite ready yet. Instead of dispatching his enemies, he declared himself Emperor without considering the consequences. Like a Disney movie, he kissed the girl and expected everything to be alright. Like in a Disney movie, he expected the "bad guys" to just run in fear, however, they didn't. Like the allegory of the cave, he saw the light, but nobody else did. They thought he was crazy.
