As someone who hasn't seen Bedtime Stories and Songs can give me a recap of the story of the King Who Couldn't Sleep? I'm curious if it had a final scene where the adult (in this case Maria) has a scene with one of the characters in the story.

It was actually "The King's Problem". Maria narrates the story of a king who calls all of his subjects to help him with something, but all of them except a little girl have something special about them (one is fast, another is tall). The King (Prince Charming with facial hair) enters and explains his problem: his crown rolled under the thrown, and he needs someone small enough to get it.

I'm curious if it had a final scene where the adult (in this case Maria) has a scene with one of the characters in the story.

At the very end, the little girl comes out and snuggles next to Maria and nods at the camera.
