The King of the Race

Liem has come a long way from the days of "Lightning McQantas". He has watched the movie Cars several times already, he has a Lightning McQueen game, he has Lightning McQueen stationery, he has Lightning McQueen pajamas, shirt, jumper, he has not one but THREE Lightning McQueen toy cars. We have also read him the story many times. So we all know now that the red car is rookie Lightning McQueen, the blue car is long time champion The King and the green car is Chick Hicks who always comes in second and always plays dirty. Liem thinks he's got it all figured out. Take this discussion at breakfast the other day:
Liem: The King is the king of the race because the name King is after The.
Mummy: Errr....
Liem: And Lightning McQueen is the QUEEN of the race!!
Mummy: !!!
