[BEAR]

Bry: (comes dragging in after a long day at work) Wow, busy first day at the club. Still I think I did pretty well. I just need to get off my feet. My bed sure sounds comfy right...now...(plops onto the couch not even making it as far as the bedroom) Aah... Oh, Muppet College Dorms were brought to you today by the letter J and by the number 3. Goodnight. (In no time is sound asleep on the couch) Zzzzzzzz...

Bunsen: I thought so.

Beaker: Meep meep..

Bunsen: Yes, the sugar was no help considering the huge amount of cookies she ate.

Beaker: mi!

Claudia: *Rises from her bed similar to a mummy and cackles*

Bunsen & Beaker: *Gasp*

Claudia: *snickers and hops out dressed in a white shirt and some shorts* HEEEHEEEE! I AM BATMAN!

Lips: Yeah, we could do something else.

Zoot: Agreed.

Janice: I rully didn't need to hear that.

Zoot: Ditto.

Lips:...sing it again.

Janice and Zoot: NO!

[BEAR]

Bry: (Coming in from work) Hey, guys! Say, what's with all the singing?
Big Bird: I like it! La la la!
Telly: There's always singing going on around here.
Bry: That's true. I guess more than usual today. It's always nice to come home to a happy Dorm House.
(Ernie can be heard singing "Rubber Duckie, you're the one..." from the bathroom)
Bry: *sighs with contentment*

[ZootyCutie]

*on phone*..okay, okay. I'll see what I can do. Yes, okay, bye. You can hang up now. Okay, I will. *hangs up*

Janice: Like, who was that?

Oh, just Dr. Teeth. I'm gonna ask Ed to see if he can room with us.

Lips: I really hope he can. Then the Mayhem would be complete. Let's just sing a song and try to make the mood even better.

All: Come on, Fhqwhgads.

Maddie:I said come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Everybody to the limit
Everybody to the limit
Everybody come on Fhqwhgads

Janice: I said come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Everybody to the limit
Who's that? It's to the limit
Everybody come on Fhqwhgads

Zoot: Come on Fhqwhgads
I see you jockin' me
Tryin' to play like
You know me

Lips:I'm like come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Everybody to the limit
We all are to the limit

Maddie: Everybody come on Fhqwhgads
I said ooh ah Fhqwhgads
I said ooh ah Fhqwhgads
Who's that fh-huh-hoo-huga-wha

Maddie and Janice: I said who is that Fhqwhgads
I don't know who it is
But it probably is Fhqwhgads
I asked my friend Joe
I asked my friend Jake
They said it was Fhqwhgads

Zoot:I said come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Who's-a to the limit?
Say me! I'm to the limit
Everybody come on Fhqwhgads

Lips: Man, Fhqwhgads
You're just making yourself look worse, y'know
I mean, everybody's just gonna feel sorry for ya
I mean, I do.

All right! That was great. Now, I better go see if I can get Dr. Teeth as another roomate.

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Nora: (groan) Did I just hear Pepe singing like he was God's gift to the female gender?
Storyteller: Unfortunately, yes...and how are your eyes feeling today, Nora?
Nora: Still a little sore in the temples.
MN: I called Dr. Lenzes and got you in for an appointment on the sixth...she says you might need glasses.
Nora: Great.
MN: Oh, now, come on, your two roommates here have been wearing glasses for most of their lives.
Storyteller: Yeah, and when you got your first pair, you saw it as a rite of passage.
MN: Hey, why not? (looks at watch) It's getting late...but tomorrow morning, who's up for crepes? I just got a new crepe maker in the mail, and I'd like to take it for a spin.
Storyteller: Ooooh...I've got a recipe for Doozer stick crepes with radish compote.

[tvlistingman]

PETER: What are we going to do tomorrow

ZOE: I haven't decided

LITTLE BIRD: I'm not sure

BABY BEAR: I'm hot

PETER: I know, we can go Minituare Golf and Bumper Cars and then cool off in the pool

BABY BEAR: Okay

LITTLE BIRD: In Honor of Summer

ZOE: OKay

(Everyone exchanges Good Nights)

[ZootyCutie]

*on phone*...so I'll see you tomorrow. Okay, see you. *hangs up phone* Guys, we're gettin' a new roomie!

Janice: Like, he's coming?


Yep tomorrow. Right now, we should get a good night's sleep and await his arrival.

Lips: Well, Zoot's way ahead of you, he's already asleep. Which I think that's what I'll be doing. Night girls.


Janice: Like, goodnight guys.


Night Janice, Night boys. *turns off light and settles into bed*

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: Pepe's song was...was....

Bunsen: Over-confident as well as filled with amusing egoism for the ladies?

Claudia: *Giggle* It was actually....cool. O_o Did-d-d I say cool?

Bunsen: *Is writing records on his list of impossibles*

Claudia:.....*Holding Beaker childishly* :) Watchya wanna do?

Bunsen: First you must stop carrying my assistant in such a fashion.

Claudia: Nupe.

Beaker: Meemeee *Snug*

Claudia: See? He is comfortable.

Bunsen: *Walks away to work on his creation*

Claudia: Um....wanna go to a museum? I'll take that as a no.

Beaker: Mimimi!

Claudia: AW! *Huggles harder*

Bunsen: *Comes back* Let us have a review of quantum physics!

Claudia: *Puts down Beaker and leaves in a flash*

Bunsen: *Frown*

Beaker: Mimimi...

Bunsen: She left without a single word!

Beaker: *tries to go with her but is held back by Bunsen*

Bunsen: Oh come now! Old Bunnie won't test on you today *Innocent chuckle containing a strange evilness to it*

Beaker: *Screaming* MIMIMIMI!

[ZootyCutie]

*Maddie is carrying the mini-fridge*

Lips: Why are you moving the mini-fridge?

Dr. Teeth is staying on your's and Zoot's side, and I'm not trusting him with it.

*knock on door*

I got it! Yay! Dr. Teeth is here!

Dr. Teeth: Greetings to my fellow keyboardist! And greetings to my fellow band followers!

Janice: Like, now all of the Mayhem is at the dorms!

Zoot: How can I sleep with all this noise. Dr Teeth, when did you get here?

Nevermind Zoot, let's just help him set up his stuff on your side of the room.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Beaker: *Smelling like burnt toast and dirty* *Cough cough*

Bunsen: Good show Beakie!

Beaker: Memeemamama

Bunsen: Oh don't worry, I will put your nose back to it's original place. *Stitcks his nose back in place*

*Pop!*

Beaker: Meemee

Bunsen: No problem.

Claudia: *Comes in* *Gasp* BEAKER! *Dusts him off* Dr. Honeydew!

Bunsen: Last name equals my unfortunate doom. *Cleans his glasses*

Claudia: Beaker...you smell...take a bath. XD *Glares at Bunsen*

Bunsen: *Puts hand to mouth in fear*

Claudia: *Claudia acts as if she is to stuff him in the luggage compressor*

Beaker: *Happily skips off to shower* Meemee

--

Bunsen: Oh my.

Claudia: *Giggles* Nerd. *Puts him down*

Bunsen: Oh Miss Claudia, I am a science man not as you say--a nerd. You in particular are the history obsessed flirt.

Claudia: I do LOVE history but why am I a flirt?

Bunsen: You tend to flirt at times.

Claudia: Well you tend to act like a nerd.

Bunsen: Oh, do you really think so? Name a time my dear.

Claudia: When Michelle Viper was on that corny 80's dating show, where you were one of the bachelors out of the three which stood Beaker and Animal along with yourself.

*Corny flash back*

http://youtube.com/watch?v=mRZGwsAYIFA

(Go near the end and you will see his nerdiness. XD)

---

Bunsen: *tugs on his shirt collar embarrasedly* That was long time ago..that Michelle was rather attractive.

Claudia: *laughing so hard*

Bunsen: *shakes head*

Claudia: I still can't believe Beaker said that--that was so uninnocentish! XD

Bunsen: It was rather naughty. Oh and just to correct you...that is not a word.

Claudia: Whatever....*Giggle giggle*

Bunsen: Since then, his comment has ruined his chances with Michelle.

Claudia: Hey, if that was in the 80's...where you actually had hair....how old are you? *eyes wide*

Bunsen: The world may never know as I keep myself youthful and if I may say so...utterly dashing *runs hand through bald head*.

Claudia: I must agree with you. You are irresistable. *Giggling madly through her words*

Bunsen: Indeed.

Claudia: *laughing loudly* OFF THE CHAIN! XD

Bunsen: *lowers head with a sigh*

-----

[The Count]

Don't get him started... Or he'll relapse back into his Dr. Snoop-Doggy-Dew persona. Beaker's nose fell off? Hmmm, guess he got that bag of edible paperclips we sent him, he does like that brand of snacks.

[Katzi428]

Rosita returning from the pool:Ahhhh...that was REFRESHING!:)
Prairiebehind Rosita:Yep...sure was! Sorry you didn't come with us,Kath.
It's OK Prairie.I need to get rid of this blasted headache.:rolleyes: Besides... Gaffer kept me company.
Prairie:Awwww...reaching down to pet Gaffer good kitty Gaffer!
Gaffer:Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[Bill Bubble Guy]

Bill: I haven't heard back from Kyle so I suppose Super-Grover hasn't had any luck at all. (sigh) Those cookies Wanda gave me from Cookie Monster were very nice. But I sure would've enjoyed them more if Marty had been here to share them with me. (sighs again) Wanda said I'd be most welcome to visit them anytime. Maybe I should.
Yeah. It'll do me some good to get out of the dorm for awhile. Beth is so nice and her roomies Wanda, Red and Cookie are all very friendly. I could use somebody to talk to for support. I'll go over to room 3 right now and ask if I may spend some time with them.

(Bill leaves locking the door behind him)
Voice: Bill come baaaaack. Don't leave meeee.
Other voice: Hahahaha. Bill can't help you fool. Nobody can help you. You're in my power. My prisoner. Forever. (cackles wickedly as first voice wails despairingly before fading away again)
NOOOOOOOOOOO!

[ZootyCutie]

Well, I guess it's time we go to sleep.

Dr. Teeth: I completely agree with you Maddie. Thank you for helping me get my hammock set up. Pleasant dreaming guys.

Janice: Like, goodnight everyone!

Lips: Night guys.

Zoot: *snore*

Well, goodnight to you guys. We can enjoy more time tomorrow.

[BEAR]

Bert: (with a packed suitcase in his hand) Well, I'm off! See you all on Monday.
Big Bird: Where are you going?
Bert: To my Uncle Louie's farm for our annual family reunion.
Big Bird: Really? How exciting!
Bert: Yeah, it's going to be so much fun! We always play the greatest games. I can't wait for the oatmeal box races!
Bry: Oatmeal box races?
Bert: Yeah, it's terrific, but the highlight is usually the checker tournament.
Bry: You're good at checkers.
Bert: Yeah, but sometimes the tournament can last up to 36 hours long.
Ernie: 36 hours?
Bert: Oh, yes! My family is very competitive.
Bry: You sure you don't need a ride to the airport, Bert?
Bert: No thanks. I've got a cab.
Ernie: (sadly) Gee, I sure am gonna miss you, ol' buddy.
Bert: Aww. Well, ya know I'm gonna miss you too, Ernie. But it's only for a few days. I'll be back soon.
Ernie: I know. (trying to cheer up) You're right. Have a good time, Bert!
Bert: Thanks, Ern.
(the cab's horn honks)
Bert: Oh, that's my ride. Bye!
Big Bird: Bye bye!
Ernie: (Still a bit sad) See ya soon!
Bry: Have fun!
Bert: Thanks! Bye! (he runs out to catch his ride)
Bry: Well...now what?
Big Bird: I'm gonna go visit Mr. Bubble Man. I know he's been sad about his friend Marty and I made him a present with the Birdkateers today to cheer him up.
Bry: Okay, Big Bird. Tell him hi for me.
Big Bird: I will!

[BeakerSqueedom]

OOC: Very much so. XD

Beaker: *Grabs some more of his edible paperclips*

Claudia: I've heard of children eating glue,dirt, and paper but paperclips? Beakie! Take that out of your mouth....your not even a kid to do that! You're older than me!

Beaker: *Shakes head and points to edibles* Meememwee...

Claudia: They may be delicious but puh-lease! *Pops his nose into his face*

Bunsen: Ohohoho! You should try a batch Claudia..

Claudia: I'm afraid to. If his nose falls off perhaps I'll end up losing my hair.

Bunsen: It's not so bad...*Looks indignant*

Claudia: *pinches his cheek* AWWW

Bunsen: Hmph.

Claudia: *Gets the paperclip bag*

Beaker: ....*Shakes head*

--

Claudia: I'm gonna make you guys watch my all time favorite movie once I throw these into that nifty garbage can.

Bunsen: *Sees the garbage growling* Wait! Miss Clau-

Beaker: MEEEEPEMEEEEPMEEEP!

Claudia: Yah? *Garbage getting nearer*

Bunsen: Run!

Beaker: MEEEMEEEE!

Claudia: *Throws food in garbage*

Garbage: *Bites her hand and tries to gobble up her arm*

Claudia: EEEE! *Whacks it with other arm*

Bunsen: *puts hand to mouth* *Looks to the audience and covers up the incident* That's all from Muppet Labs...

Claudia: ERRRRGHH!

Beaker: Meemee! MEEE! *tugging on her*

Claudia: VERY MUCH OF A DEJA VU! EEEE!

Bunsen: You pulled a Beaker...oh look! I made another funny!

Beaker: MEEEPMEEP! *pant*

Bunsen: Oh yes, I should help! *Pulls her out*

Claudia: You are lucky I have my limbs in place! *Kicks garbage*

Bunsen: Beaker has gone through that many times himself but as he is faithful...he always comes back for more.

Beaker: Pshh.

[ZootyCutie]

So, what should we do today?

Janice: Like, I rully didn't think that over yet.


Dr. Teeth: Yes, due to the fact it's raining, it wouldn't be the best choice to be swimming.


Zoot: Well, can we at least sing?


Lips: You know we always do that mostly every morning.


Maddie: I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
But i'm a little glowing friend
But really i'm not actually your friend
But i am

Janice: Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Dr. Teeth: I have a secret to tell
From my electrical well
It's a simple message and i'm leaving out the whistles and bells
So the room must listen to me
Filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary one note spelled l-i-t-e
My story's infinite
Like the longines symphonette it doesn't rest

Lips: Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Zoot: I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
But i'm a little glowing friend
But really i'm not actually your friend
But i am

Maddie: There's a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though i respect that a lot
I'd be fired if that were my job
After killing jason off and countless screaming argonauts
Bluebird of friendliness
Like guardian angels its always near

Janice: Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

All: (and while you're at it
Keep the nightlight on inside the
Birdhouse in your soul)

Dr. Teeth: Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Lips: Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while you're at it)
Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)
Make a little birdhouse in your soul (birdhouse in your soul)

Zoot: Not to put too fine a point on it
Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Maddie: Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while you're at it)
Janice: Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)
Dr. Teeth: Make a little birdhouse in your soul (birdhouse in your soul)

Lips: Not to put too fine a point on it
Zoot: Say i'm the only bee in your bonnet
All: Make a little birdhouse in your soul

[redBoobergurl]

Beth: Hello Bill, please come in
Wanda: Any luck finding Marty?
Bill: Not yet. I feel like I keep hearing this voice when I'm in my room though. I don't know if I am imagining things or not
Red: Well you can visit with us for awhile. Hey, can you blow me some bubbles? I love bubbles
Bill: Sure Red, I'd be happy to *blows Bubbles*
Cookie: Me share more cookies with you if you want
Bill: That is quite kind of you Cookie Monster

[BEAR]

Bry: (at the kitchen counter making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for Telly) Hi, Ernie!
Ernie: Hi.
Bry: I'm making some lunch. Want something?
Ernie: I'm not very hungry.
Telly: Hey, Ernie, you wanna help me with my Triangle-Bob puzzle?
Ernie: uuh...
Big Bird: How about a game of Journey to Ernie?
Ernie: I'm not really in the mood right now, Big Bird. Maybe later though.
Bry: Do you need anything?
Ernie: I think I'm just gonna go for a little walk.
Bry: Okay, Ernie. Well, you know where to find us if you need anything.
Ernie: Thanks. (walks out to the hallway and passes by Oscar's can)
Oscar: Hey, there, Bath Boy!
Ernie: Oh, hi, Oscar.
Oscar: Say, why are you looking so gloomy? I love it!
Ernie: Bert went away for the weekend and I really miss him.
Oscar: Speaking of Bert, I found this in my can this morning (holds up a paperclip).
Ernie: A paperclip. (takes it from Oscar) This couldn't be one of Bert's. He wouldn't just throw away one of his paperclips.
Oscar: I wouldn't think so either, but it actually came from that new girl who lives with that looney scientist.
Ernie: Oh, really? Gee, thanks, Oscar. I'll give this to Bert when he comes home. Bye! (leaves)
Oscar: Hey, I didn't say you could have it! That's my trash! And most importantly...never thank a grouch! (groans)

[BeakerSqueedom]

OOC: XD LOL I loved that Bear but just to let you know Bunsen had created a walking talking trashcan (In an episode) that ate garbage so it was not meant for Grouch but then again perhaps Beaker went by the Grouch thinking it was a normal garbage can and threw it in there. XD That was cute though.

Claudia: Beaker you threw it away?

Beaker: *nod*

Bunsen: *Walking down the hallway then hears Grouch's comment* I beg to differ, I am a Scientist not a loon. *Says to Grouch*

Claudia: I second what the Grouch says. *Giggle* *Says from room*

[ZootyCutie]

One, two, three. Hit it!

Maddie: Who's that waddlin' down the street?
It's just me, 'cause I love to eat
Fudge and Twinkies and deviled ham
Who's real flabby? Yes, I am!
Every picture of me's
Gotta be an aerial view
Now my doctor tells me
There's just one thing left to do--

Janice: Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
Throw out the pizza and beer
Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
Oh, get those jelly donuts out of here
Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
Might seem a little severe
Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
I'm gettin' tired of my big fat rear
Blow, flatty!

Dr. Teeth: Well, I used to live on chocolate sauce
Made sumo wrestlers look like Kate Moss
Walked down an alley and I got stuck
I got more rolls than a pastry truck
When I'm all done eating
I eat a little more
When I leave a room
First I gotta grease the door

Lips: Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
Can't have another eclair
Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
I gotta decrease my derriere

Zoot: I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet

Maddie: No more pie now
No more creme brulee
Lay off the gravy
And souffle
No french fri-yi-yies now
No ice cream parfait
Mr. Cheese Nacho
Stay away

Janice: Oh, I think I'd sell my soul
For a triple patty melt
But I need a boomerang
When I put on my belt

Dr. Teeth: Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
Lay off the 3 Musketeers
Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
Until my big booty disappears
Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
Eat'em till they're comin' out of my ears
Grapefruit Diet (Diet)
'Cause I haven't seen my feet in years

Lips: I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
Zoot: I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
All: I'm on a Grapefruit Diet

[The Count]

*Passing by, making the rounds... Oh hi Claudia. Hmmm, though Oscar lives in the trashcan on the 2nd floor's common room (one full floor below yours), I suppose he could easily have some sort of ladder installed inside all of the trashcans on all of the common rooms and get from floor to floor just as easily as we do in the dumbwaiter elevator. Oh well... Wanted to drop off a batch of guava pastry cakes as thanks for the drawing you did. Enjoy them in good health.
*Leaves tray with goodies outside Room #44 and returns to the elevator to go downstairs to his room.

[ZootyCutie]

That last song was fun!

Janice: Fer sure! But I rully want to do another one!

Dr Teeth: I have an idea on what song we should do. Lips, do the honors of the disclaimer.

Lips: Sure thing. *ahem* This next song by all means is in no way to insult Canadians.

Zoot: Hit it!

Maddie: Don't wanna be a Canadian idiot
Don't wanna be some beer swillin' hockey nut
And do I look like some frostbitten hose-head?
I never learned my alphabet from A to Zed

Janice: They all live on donuts and moose meat
And they leave the house without packin' heat
Never even bring their guns to the mall
And you know what else is too funny?
Their stupid Monopoly money
Can't take 'em seriously at all

Dr. Teeth: Well maple syrup and snow's what they export
They treat curling just like it's a real sport
They think their silly accent is so cute
Can't understand a thing they're talkin' aboot

Lips: Sure they got their national health care
Cheaper meds, low crime rates and clean air
Then again well they got Celine Dion
Eat their weight in Kraft macaroni
And dream of drivin' a Zamboni
All over Saskatchewan

Zoot: Don't wanna be a Canadian idiot
Won't figure out their temperature in Celsius
See the map, they're hoverin' right over us
Tell you the truth, it makes me kinda nervous

Maddie: Always hear the same kind of story
Janice: Break their nose and they'll just say "sorry"
Dr. Teeth: Tell me what kind of freaks are that polite?
Lips: It's gotta mean they're all up to somethin'
Zoot: So quick, before they see it comin'
All: Time for a pre-emptive strike!

Once again, the song sung was by all means not meant to insult Canadians. It was just for entertainment value.

[The Count]

*Back in Room #1... Hey Count, I think we got ourselves a bit of good news.
Count: Oh?
Yeah, talked to Maddie... She said she could assist our sewing spider crew. So it looks like there'll be a surprise at the next anniversary similar to the first. The names and faces might've changed since we went around...
Count: But we're glad that they all can be found.
Oh, right here where we need 'em.
Count: Fright here where we need them.
Yeah, it'll be a great party this September when we open up for Year 3.

Take care guys and gals, and have a good weekend.

Prairie:Kathy...what's the matter?You all right? :concern:
Yeah...I'll be OK Prairie.blowing my nose and then wiping my eyes again I'm watching "Phantom Of The Opera" and Christine and Raoul just sang "All I Ask Of You" Oooohhhh Prairie...I just LOVE that song so much! I just wish I had a guy in my life to keep me safe when things aren't going right.
Prairie: Don't be sad,Kathy...please?Besides you have your family and us to keep you safe.You know that.
I know. I guess I get all weepy eyed during movie love scenes.
Prairie:And I didn't know this after rooming with you for the past few years?
:rolleyes: at Prairie
Prairie: Sorry.I'm a mush heart too when it comes to love scenes too.You know that.And this is a good movie!
Yeah.Where's Rosita?
Prairie: Over in the common room playing Monopoly with some of the other dormies.

[BeakerSqueedom]

EDIT: Omgsh Kathy I sooo can relate. I get teary eyed myself as I am a big romance freak. XD *Pats on back* <33333...Moulin rouge was one of em.

Claudia: *Brushing teeth and clad in a white pajama top and comfy loose pajama pants*

Bunsen & Beaker: *Snug in their beds*

Claudia: *Crawls into her new water bed* *Goes under her blanket with a small flashlight and reads Charlie Chaplin's Autobiography with great interest*

Bunsen: *Gets off from his bed and lifts her blanket* Hello, what are you reading there Miss Claudia?

Claudia: *Shows book*

Beaker: *next to Bunsen* Meemeeeemee!

Claudia: I did not see you Beakie! :)

Beaker: Meeemee

Claudia: Want me to tell you his story in story format rather than a autobiography?

Bunsen: It'd be interesting. It's been awhile since anyone has told me a story.

Beaker: *nodnod*

Claudia: Alright, Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Charles Spencer Chaplin. He had half-siblings but from what I remember I think he was the youngest. He had a rough start in his life as he became an orphan at an early age in his childhood due to his mother's medical absences and the passing of his father. Later in his life he developed an interest to acting but it was not something he intended really in fact it was quite the contrary!

Bunsen: How interesting!

Beaker: *nod nod* meemeeemomwee!

Claudia: *smiles and pulls off her blanket to give an appropiate storytelling experience* Want some marshmellows for this rare and educational storytelling?

Bunsen: Splendid idea.

Beaker: *Fetches them*

[ZootyCutie]

*Maddie and her roomies are in their pajamas*

Oh yeah? Well, what about the time that computer exploded on you?

Dr. Teeth: You can never prove that! What about the time Lips turned invisible and punched you in the gut!

Lips: I never turned invisible! What about the time Janice made that robot of me with a SpeakNSpell and a box of Grape Nuts!

Janice: Like, I never would do that. Well, like, what about the time Zoot drank that glass of soy sauce, and tried to fly the bus?

Zoot: That was fun.

Wait, you actually did that?

Zoot: Yes. So?

Uh, I'm going over here. *runs to the other side of the room*

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *rubs eyes* Uncle D., do I have to write tonight?
Uncle Deadly: Yes, but I'll tell you what, my fiend. You do not have to finish it tonight. You may do that on Monday.
Ryan: Alright, alright. *types 'Chapter 14'* Okay, I'm done now.
Uncle Deadly: *shocks Ryan with lightning* Would you like to retract that last statement?
Ryan: *twitches* Okay...

[The Count]

*In the 1st floor's bathroom, I'm taking a late night midnight shower. Thought it'd be better this way. See, we happen to have a tradition back in my home of Puerto Rico. Today, the 23rd of June, it's the birthday or day devoted to our patron saint, John the Baptist. So what do we do to honor him? The tradition holds that you have to be immersed in some form of water at midnight to have good luck for the rest of the year, not to mention wipe everything off of your slate. Most people either head off for the beaches, while others dive in pools or jump into public fountains.
As for me, well, I thought a shower would be good enough. And now that I've taken my bath, I'm dressed in my comfy sleeping clothes and ready for a good night's sleep.
*OCC: Though the tradition's real, I rarely partake in it myself.

Count: Ah, time for us creatures of the night to rest in peace. But before we do...

Me: MC Dorms were brought to you by the letter... Zzzzzz...
Count: And by the number 1.
*Count counts one batty bat flying through the room's window before promptly falling asleep himself.

[BeakerSqueedom]

*All three fell asleep through the story and are now crowded on the bed*

Claudia: *Sprawled*

Bunsen: *Snoring*

Beaker: *Curled up in a ball*

The Z was very suitable. XD

[Beakerfan]

*carrying a sleeping Animal* Boy's it's time for bed. Pepe, did you take a bath?
Pepe: Si! I am very clean and verrry sexy hokay! But jou knew that hokay!
Floyd: *walks in wearing a robe*
Floyd! You're dripping all over the shag carpet!
Floyd: Oh! Uh... I'll take care of that! *exits and comes back more dry, this time wearing a towel*
Floyd Pepper put some shorts on! *throws Floyds pajama pants at him*
Floyd: *leaves and comes back in pajama pants*
*looks adoringly at Animal* He's so cute when he's asleep. *gently lays Animal down on mattress* Good night Pepito! *gives Pepe a kiss on the forehead* Good night Floyd. *kisses Floyd's forehead* Sleep well boys. *climbs in bed and snuggles with her plushes*

[tiggergirl19]

Hi. I was wondering if there were any rooms left here? I would like to be here to be able to talk to the other people here after reading the description of what this place looks like. I wouldn't need a roommate, because I would go and talk to the other people in the dorm.

[The Count]

Ahem... If you're interested in joining the dorms Tiggergirl, please send me a PM with all your questions and I'll try to answer them as best I can.
Thank you.

[tiggergirl19]

I just read the website that' on the fron page of this forum and I was wondering if any of the info on that page was really current or if it had changed recently? I still want to come here, I just would like to know if I can get a room and I might pick a roommate since it listed some that were left. You can send me a pm I think, if you want to, to let me know anything. :halo: :) :concern:

[The Count]

Um no... The way it works is that all potential persons interested in joining should contact me first with whatever questions they have. That way I can instruct them on how to join, given that the rules of the game have changed. The first page is a good place to start to get an idea of what the dorm is and how we operate here, but there have been lots of changes since then.

Also, this is meant to all people interested in joining the dorms... Please don't post in the thread until you've contacted me and everything's been OKayed. This helps ensure that we don't get posts in here that are nothing more than vandalism (posts made by bad or negative forum members). It makes the dorms safer, as only the people who have been authorized to reside here by the review committee can post without fear of ill-intentioned interlopers.

Hope you can understand our policies, as they're meant to protect all dorm members. Thank you, and I hope to hear from you soon.

[The Count]

Hello everybody. Since we're seeing a drive of new applicants for residency here at the dorms, I thought I'd help out all prospective new members by posting a copy of the current register and where they're staying. If you have any questions, please LMK and I'll try to answer as best I can.

OOC: Good list! :D

Claudia: Back hurts. *Groans*

Bunsen: Oh, why do you say that?

Claudia: The bed was crowded.

Bunsen: Sorry, to make it up to you, I have decided to give you our oldest technique from muppet labs where you may kiss your pains away and welcome bliss to take its entrance.

Claudia: I'd rather welcome pain and kiss away bliss if it's going to come from your inventions. *Cringe* That garbage you invented could of ate me and I still am very tramautized.

Bunsen: Won't be so bad. :) Beaker has tried it himself and has been left without any real pain since then. *Brings in a metalic bat*

Claudia: Please, NOOOO! EEEEEEEEEEEEEE! *Runs out of her room and rushes through the halls crazily* CRAZY SCIENTIST TRYING TO WHACK ME WITH A BAT!

Bunsen: *Chases after in a calm cool fashion* *Holds a warm Mr. Rogers expression as he walks* Miss Claudia, I will not hurt you. It actually feels wonderful.

Claudia: You call whacking my back pleasent? *Pant*

*Corny child-like music plays as he skips along merrily with his bat*

Beaker: *Sees her running* Mee? *Sees Bunsen* MEEEEEEEEMEEE! *Flailing his arms*

Claudia: *Hides behind Beaker* ouch my back! I mean OH MY GOSH IT FEELS BETTER (horrible) ALREADY!

Bunsen: *waves finger side to side* Mmhmm *Shake head*

Claudia & Beaker: *SPLIT*

[ZootyCutie]

Okay Janice, the boys are still asleep, so we can just do the song together.

Janice: Like okay! But let's do one that won't wake them.

Agreed.

Maddie: Uh oh
There you go again talking cinematic
Yeah you!
You're charming, got everybody star struck.
I know
How you always seem to go
For the obvious instead of me
But get a ticket and you'll see

Janice: If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play the happy song

Maddie: (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah
When you call me
I can hear it in your voice
Oh sure!
Wanna see me
And tell me all about her
La la
I'll be acting through my tears
I guess you'll never know
That I should win
An Oscar for this scene I'm in

Janice: If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play the happy song

Maddie: Wish I could tell you there's a twist
Some kind of hero in disguise
And we're together
It's for real
Now playing
Wish I could tell you there's a kiss
Like something more than in my mind
I see it
Could be amazing

Janice: If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play the happy song

Maddie: If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play the happy song

Both: If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play the happy song

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: @_@ I may never walk again Bunsen.

Bunsen: Not to worry! It's all in a days work.

Claudia: *on bed with a worse pain* -__-

Beaker: Meeemeee..*pats Claudia on the back*

Claudia: *Groan*

Wanda: Me too

[Muppet Newsgirl]

MN: (walks in, singing in a hoarse voice) "You walk tall, got your head in the clouds, you talk soft, but you're thinking aloud..."
Storyteller: More like singing aloud, songbird. And what's that sticking out of your purse?
MN: Well, first things first. Went to Atlantic City to see Asia (the 80s rock band, not the continent) in concert.
Nora: Atlantic City? As in casino central?
MN: Yes, crazy as it may seem. But it was an incredible show, I'm telling you. It's their 25th anniversary, all the original members.
Nora: Wow...and isn't one of them a member of one of those groups you're nuts over?
MN: That's right, Carl Palmer is the drummer for both Asia and ELP...and wouldn't you love to see him challenge Animal to a drum duel.
Storyteller: Ooooh...now, what's that in your purse?
MN: Well, see, since a dragon is the central motif in some of the album artwork, they were selling little plush dragons at the T-shirt stand. (pulls dragon out) I'll have to give it a name.
Nora: Looks kind of like one of the dragons from Puppetman.
MN: You noticed. But it's too pretty to be Gertha.

(up in heaven)

R: Or Rita.
JH: But Rita was the human star of Dragon Time, not a dragon.
R: Oh? Just try having to sing some absurdly sunny folk song with her.

[The Count]

Well... You could always go with Cinders or Desiree. Or if you need help with dragon names, I can roll some off of the ol' flaming tongue. Better mine than the flaming tongues from the fireplace.
*Small joke, very small, you'd need a magnifying glass to find it.

Uh-oh, better quit while I'm ahead. Or before I lose my head to the horseman.
Hope to hear from Beth soon, sent her a special PM earlier today. Glad you had fun at Atlantic City Erin. Oh, there are some guava pastry cakes in the common room's fridge if you or the guys upstairs want any.

[BEAR]

(Ernie is sitting on his bed holding his Rubber Duckie and staring down in sadness.)
Ernie: *Sigh*
Bry: (knocks on the door) Ernie?
Ernie: Come in.
Bry: (walks in the room) Hi, Ernie.
Ernie: Hi.
Bry: How ya doin'?
Ernie: Eh. Okay.
Bry: You wanna talk about it?
Ernie: I miss Bert a lot.
Bry: Oh...
Ernie: It's just not the same without my best pal around.
(Ernie starts his song as he tries to tell me how he is feeling)

When Bert's not here
The hours last forever
The toys aren't fun
And the cookies don't crunch
When Bert's not here
I don't feel so clever
And I never even feel like having lunch

When Bert's not here
The place is too quiet
The windows creak
Funny thoughts fill my head
When Bert's not here
No way to deny it
I feel I really should have stayed in bed

There's some peculiar things about him
What he likes and does can be a mystery
But to spend a rainy day without him
Makes me realize how much he means to me

When Bert's not here
The sky's not so sunny
My life seems blue
And from my point of view
When Bert's not here
The jokes aren't so funny
And I wonder what on earth I'm gonna do
When Bert's not here
To play with me and you

So you see? I miss him like crazy.
Bry: Well, it's only Sunday and he should be arriving back tomorrow.
Ernie: I wish he were here right now.
(the sound of the front door creaks open)
Bert: I'm home!
Bry/Ernie: (Both looking at each other) Huh?

(in the livingroom...)
Bert: Anyone home? Ernie?
Ernie: Bert, you're back!
Bert: Hi, Ernie!
(the two hug)
Bry: Bert, what are you doing here? You aren't supposed to be back til tomorrow.
Bert: I know, but I decided to come home early.
Ernie: Why? What about your family reunion?
Bert: Oh, it was terrific! And I was happy to see my family, but you know what?
Ernie: What?
Bert: I started to miss my other family too. My family right here.
Bry: That's sweet, Bert.
Bert: And my best friend in the whole world.
Ernie: Really?
Bert: Of course!
Ernie: Aww...I missed you too, old pal! (hugs him)
Bert: (laughs) Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh! So, what do you wanna do? How about a nice quiet and relaxing game of checkers?
Ernie: Checkers? I was hoping maybe we can play Hide-and-Go-Seek!
Bert: Checkers.
Ernie: Hide and Seek.
Bert: How about chess.
(the two argue for a bit)
Ernie: Bert...let's just go see a movie, huh?
Bert: Good idea!
Ernie: Khekhekhe!
(they go out)
Bry: Have fun! (watching them leave) Oh, those two!

[Bill Bubble Guy]

Bill(walking along to room 13) :How caring Beth, Wanda, Red and Cookie are. I'm so fortunate to have such supportive friends during this difficult time I'm going through. Hey. That looks like Big Bird at my door.
(calls out) Hey Big Bird! Are you looking for me?

[BeakerSqueedom]

Bunsen: People sing quite often here. It never seems boring which makes me feel even more inspired when I work on some of my most brilliant inventions. *Looks thoughtful*

Claudia: Yah, sure is cute.

Beaker: Meemee. *Tugs on her sleeve*

Claudia: Me sing? Nah I don't wanna sing. All these people have wonderful voices--who am I to butt in?

Bunsen: Usually you are the optimist in this group, I am shocked to see you stoop to such low esteem.

Claudia: It's not that. I've won first place in nearly all the school events but except the Christmas program...I ran from the stage of embarrassment. *Glum*

Bunsen: Beakie, get the electrical-

Claudia: *GASP*

Bunsen: Kidding, chin up Missy!

Claudia: *Smiles childishly*

Beaker: *Humming*

Claudia: I love your voice Beakie. *in bed*

Beaker: *In his own bed* Meemee

Claudia: No prob...Bunnie! Get in your bed! :D We're watching "Back to the future!"

Bunsen: I love that movie! Ooo count me in! *Goes to do the nightly basics before slipping into bed*

*Movie starts*

Claudia: Night guys. *watches*

Bunnie & Beakie: Night *Watching too*

[tvlistingman]

Peter: It's Monday Night and what should we do since there's no class

Zoe: Why not go swimming in the outdoor dorm pool

Peter: Good Idea in honor of summer

Little Bird: And After that, Some Ice Cream

Peter: Right On, Little Bird

Baby Bear: Gee, It's a Hot Summer Day!

[BEAR]

Bill(walking along to room 13) :How caring Beth, Wanda, Red and Cookie are. I'm so fortunate to have such supportive friends during this difficult time I'm going through. Hey. That looks like Big Bird at my door.
(calls out) Hey Big Bird! Are you looking for me?

Big Bird: Oh! Hi there, Mr. Bubble Gum (innocently mispronouncing the name)! I know you've been sad with your friend missing and all. So, the Birdkateers and I got together and made you a new friend. (holds up a man made of things out of the garden: body, legs and arms made of sticks/twigs, a head made from a pinecone, and glued to the pinecone are acorn eyes and a walnut nose, various flowers for "hair"; there is also a "bowtie" made of leaves.) We named him Artie, but you can change it if you want. I hope you like it!

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: *Humming as she turns on the vaccum cleaner* *Picks up a piece of a flask glass as well as a pair of googles* Good thing they are outside...

*Door opens*

Claudia: *Turns to the door threateningly* *Sticks out rainbow vacuum cleaner pipe thing* I WAS A SECOND YELLOW BELT SO BACK OFF! D:

Beaker: *Sucked tight on the sucker* MEEEMEEEEMEEEEE!

Claudia: BEAKER! OH MY GOSH! BEEAAKER! *Turns it off*

Bunsen: *Hand to mouth* Oh dear.

Claudia: *Unsticks Beaker* *Huggles to death* SORRY SORRY!

Beaker: MEEEMEEEEEEEEEMEEEE *Shaking* MEEEE!

Bunsen: You are overly paranoid Miss Claudia...you even scream when there is a little bug.

Claudia: Well, they are WIERD D: LIKE EW! *Cradling a traumatized Beaker*

Bunsen: *Pats her on the back before getting the vacuum* Do not worry yourself. He will be just fine, afterall, he has been through worse. He is a tough lad!

Beaker: M-mee-meee

Claudia: Sorry Beakie!

[Bill Bubble Guy]

Big Bird: Oh! Hi there, Mr. Bubble Gum (innocently mispronouncing the name)! I know you've been sad with your friend missing and all. So, the Birdkateers and I got together and made you a new friend. (holds up a man made of things out of the garden: body, legs and arms made of sticks/twigs, a head made from a pinecone, and glued to the pinecone are acorn eyes and a walnut nose, various flowers for "hair"; there is also a "bowtie" made of leaves.) We named him Artie, but you can change it if you want. I hope you like it!

Bill: Why thank you Big Bird. It's so beautiful. And I really love all the flowers for hair, the cute acorn eyes and the walnut for a nose. You all did such a wonderful job putting all the bits and pieces together. And how clever to use a pinecone for the head. He is very special indeed. The leaves for a bowtie are a perfect finishing touch.
Artie eh? I think I like that name. Artie he shall be. Marty would love him too. (Sigh) I hope he comes back one day. Be sure to say thank you to all the Birdkateers for me also.
(blows a few thank you bubbles)
Bill: Would you like a box of yummy birdseed? I always have some spare boxes of it lying around in case nice friendly birds like you come to call.
(Big Bird says yes indeed so he waits outside in the hall while Bill enters leaving the door open, places Artie on the kitchen table and goes to the cupboard to get the birdseed)

Voice: Biiiilll. Get awaaaay. Quickly. Ruuunuuunnnn.
(Before Bill has time to react he suddenly vanishes in a blink of an eye. Big Bird watching through the open door is terrified and goes running off back to his own dorm as fast as he can. What has become of Marty and Bill?)

[Bill Bubble Guy]

(Bill finds himself inside what looks like a dank, dark cave but light is shining brightly from a piece of crystal held by a hideous woman with a fang protruding from her mouth. Marty is standing nearby)

Bill: Marty! Where are we? (pointing to strange woman) And who is that?
Marty: I am afraid Bill that is Taminella the Witch who appears in Kermit the Frog's classic television special "The Frog Prince". At the end of the show Kermit and all the other frogs help Robin to defeat her by getting her to drop her cane breaking the ball in the handle of it, thereby destroying her power.

Taminella: Correct. And stripped of my powers I was transformed into a bird. But I have found a way to get new power and I'm achieving my goal.

Bill: What are you doing?

Taminella: I discovered this magic crystal that transported me to this parallel inter-dimensional realm. Here I can resume my original form. But to regain my full powers and be able to no longer be a bird in the physical realm I need to kidnap people and bring them here. With each new person I capture the magic of this crystal gives me new evil powers. Every few days when the crystal recharges I get somebody new and feel myself getting strong again.

Bill: So Marty. It really was you I heard calling out to me sometimes.
Marty: Yes Bill. And when I realized she intended to get you also I tried to warn you. But she was too quick.
Bill: So what do you intend to do with us?

Taminella: Why you'll stay here forever of course. Cackle. Along with all the others I shall go on to capture. I think I might start collecting those people who live in that room you with the curly hair and glasses had been visiting. Starting with that lady you called Beth.

Marty: (aghast) No! You leave my friend Beth alone!

(Taminella is laughing uproariously with her head thrown back when Bill quickly leaps up upon her and starts blowing bubbles in her face.)
Taminella: Aaaaaaauuuuuggghhhh!
(Marty takes the cue and snatches the crystal out of her hands. He smashes it as hard as he can against the rock wall while Bill keeps blowing bubbles in Taminella's eyes while she tries to throw him off her. Marty keeps on smashing until the crystal shatters)

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: I'm exactly where you want me you know! *Singing*

Bunsen: You are? Oh good! Now step into the machi-

Claudia: I was singing Bunnie.

Bunsen: *snaps fingers*

Beaker: Mee. >_>

Claudia: I feel romantic so perhaps I'll write up a new chapter.

Bunsen: *Takes out a red liquid in a flask* We have just the thing for finding that perfect soulmate. In fact the moment you drink this you-

Claudia: Start becoming a Harry Potter wizard rather than a Scientist. PUH-LEASE Bunnie...not even Albert E. could figure out how love starts but rather he said it as "foolish to make science out of something as phenomenal as love." or something of the sort. I do not remember.

Bunsen: Oh poo, I wanted to test it.

Beaker: Meeemeee.

Claudia: *Walks out giddily*

[Erine81981]

A letter comes in for Ed

Hey Ed.
Me and the Monsters and the grouch have been staying over at my parents house and are doing fine. Sorry we haven't been around lately. My cousin is doing alright that is of now there are still some stuff that we don't know of at the moment. But things are fine here and the monsters are having fun getting to play with my neices and friends.

Talk to ya'll later.

Sincerty your friends,
Kyle, Grover, Herry, Murray, Maurice and Oscar.

(Our internet is down so just to let ya'll know hope to be back soon)

[The Count]

Mmm... A letter from Kyle. *Reads it. Good to know he's doing fine. He'll have to catch the new episodes of MopFam on repeat or maybe someone's taping them for him. Oh well, plenty to keep busy around here.
*Moves off to tend to a few errands.

[BeakerSqueedom]

*Comes back in*

Claudia: *Sits between Bunsen and Beaker on the couch* Why do I not smell a burning Beaker or see an ash filled Bunsen? *Eyes wide*

Bunsen & Beaker: *Twidling their fingers*

Claudia: Ok, who are you and what have you guys done to my nerds?

Beaker: *Drinking Coffee* Meemee

Claudia: Bored?

Bunsen: Just a tinsy bit.

Claudia: Er...wanna go shop?

Beaker: *Gasps happily* Meeemeee!

Claudia: I did not know you had a feminime side...O_o

Bunsen: He doesn't. It's just that--the only thing we have to wear are our lab coats.

Claudia: Psh...let's get you some real clothes.

*They all go out of the building and into the car*

[ZootyCutie]

*wearing a viking helmet* I now bring this meeting of the 'Friendternal Helmet Wearers' to order!

*cut to other part of room. Janice has a fireman's hat, Dr. Teeth has a football hemet, Zoot has a British police officer hat, and Lips has a Samurai helmet.*

Now, let us sing the club's song.

Maddie: Singing,
All: Ever and more, ever and more, ever and more!
Maddie: Singing,
All: Ever and more, ever and more, ever and more!
Maddie: Singing,
All: Ever and more, ever and more, ever and more!

Good, good. Now, the main reason for the meeting, not only because it's the first one, but also we need a club handshake. Dr. Teeth, come help me with it.

Dr. Teeth: Sure thing.

Watch and observe.

*Maddie and Dr. Teeth do some strange wiggling moves with their hand on their hips.*

Okay, you guys practice that. I'm gonna get some water.

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Nora: So Amanda's doing an art project?
MN: Yeah, she's looking for art or photos related to or depicting Richard. It's going to be a present for Jane.
Storyteller: Oh, how nice.
MN: Yeah, she asked me to pass it along to everyone - I stuck a nice big notice about it up in the fiction and art thread.

(up in heaven)

R: By any chance, did I hear my niece's name come up in the conversation?

MN: You did. You probably know this by now, Richard, but Amanda's putting together a project for your mother, and she's asked us if we could help somehow.

R: I did hear about that, and I think my mother would love it.

Storyteller: I hear she's been through a bit lately...by the way, Erin, have you come up with a name for that dragon yet?
MN: Well, truth be told, I'm kinda considering Del at the moment.

R: Please, for the love of all that is good and sacred, don't choose Rita.
JH: Or Elmo.

[BeakerSqueedom]

*Back*

Claudia: I love the clothes you bought! XD *Takes out from bag a tux for special occasions*

Bunsen: I do have good taste. I don't sound very modest do I? *Chuckles*

Beaker: *Hanging his new clothes in the closet* Meeemee

Claudia: They make you look unusually swank.

Bunsen: *hangs his clothes* Too bad you bought nothing for yourself.

Claudia: Tight budget.

Bunsen: I see.

*They do the nightly basics*

*Later*

Claudia: *Giggle giggle*

Bunsen: *Polishes glasses*

Claudia: Bunnie, why do you not have eyes?

Bunsen: They are there...if not I would not be able to see you so vividly.

Beaker: Meeemeemomwee

Bunsen: Hush you.

Claudia: *Gigglesnort* *Snuggles into bed* *Giggles constantly*

Bunsen: *Goes and pokes her in the stomach* You sound like a little girl Miss Claudia..do grow up.

Beaker: Meeemeee *Next to Bunsen*

Claudia: NEVERRR! *Pounces on them randomly*

Beaker: *Screaming*

Bunsen: See?

Claudia: *Huggles them tightly* MY NERDS ARE AWESOME!

Bunsen: Beakie, you were supposed to see that she did not steal the cookie from the cookie jar. *Whispers*

Beaker: *Shakes head*

[TogetherAgain]

Rowlf: <peers out from behind piano> Lisa?
Lisa: GAH! <jumps> <glares at Rowlf> Don't SCARE me like that!
Rowlf: Oh, sorry. It's just... is that the notebook I think it is?
Lisa: ...<hides notebook behind back> What notebook?
Rowlf: The one you were just writing in.
Lisa: Um, uh- ME? Writing in a notebook? Uh... Must've been the new Vim Book you saw, y'know, um, Vimbo... Vimbie got full.
Rowlf: <shakes head> It was bigger than that.
Lisa: ...<ahem> Sure you weren't seeing things?
Rowlf: So which forgotten story is it? Heart of Gold? Flippersteps in the Sand? Or- dare I say it- Say Cheese?
Lisa: <big smile> CHEESE!
Chef: <takes a picture>
Rowlf: <shakes head> It was Heart of Gold, wasn't it?
Lisa: Rowlf, you KNOW Heart doesn't have a notebook. ...<wide eyes> I MEAN! Um- Not that I WAS... Writing in a notebook...
Rowlf: Flippersteps, then?
Lisa: <ahem> Do you think Clifford's still up?
Rowlf: <double take> Why?
Lisa: I need to talk to him about his love life.
Rowlf: <double take>
Lisa: <innocent look>
Rowlf: ...He might be up, but the rest of his room is probably asleep. Except Uncle Deadly.
Lisa: ...<shrug> Okay. I won't disturb 'em, then. Prawnie's baby sitting in the morning.
Rowlf: And you have a doctor's appointment. You should get to sleep.
Lisa: ...Um... I will... before TOO long...
Rowlf: When you finish the chapter?
Lisa: Probab- Uh, WHAT chapter?
Rowlf: I knew it.

Beth: I should go to work but the Moppet Family tv show is so exciting, I can't stop watching!
Wanda: I know, I really like that Izzy character
Beth: I thought you might
Red: Hey, come on guys it's a beautiful day, we should be outside
Cookie: Yeah, it real sunny
Wanda: In a minute
Beth: I really should go to work. A few more minutes won't hurt
*Beth and Wanda turn back to the t.v.*
Red: Come on Cookie, you and I can go outside
Cookie: Sound good to me

[Bill Bubble Guy]

(Marty and Bill find themselves back in their dorm again. Bill is holding a bird in his hands, blowing bubbles in it's squawking face)

Marty: We're free Bill. Taminella is a harmless bird again.
(Bill releases her and she flies out their window squawking off out of sight)

Bill: Marty! I'm so thrilled to have you back.
Marty: Bill! (They embrace) Thank you for saving me Bill. If you hadn't taken that witch by surprise I never would've been able to smash that crystal.
Bill: I didn't think consciously about hope Marty. I was simply so furious when she spoke about going after Beth and her friends I had to lash out. You were just as heroic in taking advantage of snatching it off her.
Marty: Goodness Bill. Do you realize this makes us both heroes? She may have trapped the entire population of our dorms in that zone eventually.
Bill: That's right. We will have to mention this when we announce your return Marty.
Marty: Let's have us a personal celebration first Bill.

(They spend the next 15 minutes filling their dorm up with bubbles.)

[Beakerfan]

*wakes up to find self in bed, being prodded in the back with Pepe's feelers, Animal is curled up next to her* WHOA! Hold it right there senior! *rolls over and grabs feelers in a tight fist* What the hey is going on?
Pepe: Well, ah, jou have been in bed for a couple ov days hokay. And ah, I was just checking to see if jou were still, ah, jou know... living. *glances around* IT WAS FLOYDS IDEA! DON'T KILL ME!
Floyd: *mumbles* dirty double-crosser....
Oh, I won't kill you Pepe.... *lets go of feelers*
Pepe: Ah, thank jou seniorita! *rubs feelers and backs away slowly*
*turns to Animal* Go for it.
Pepe: Wha?
Animal: AHHHHHHHHHHH! *jumps on Pepe and begins pummeling him* DONT TOUCH! *continues pummeling*
Floyd, have I honestly been asleep for two or three days?
Floyd: You sure have! I thought Animal was gonna go crazy without you around!
Floyd, Animal is crazy.
Floyd: Yeah, well. You know what I meant.
Pepe: HELP! Oof
No way. I may be living with you guys, but I girl like me will only put up with so much.
Pepe: HELP! Pleeease!
Animal: *still pummeling* *lifts Pepe up like a WWE wrestler and slams him onto the ground* *glares at Pepe*
Pepe: Oh! Thank you for stopping! *begins smoothing his clothes*
Animal: *threatens to beat Pepe more*
Pepe: Hokay, hokay! *turns to Alex* Seniorita, I am sorry for offending you. I promise, from now on, I will not do that!
Good! Now, let's all go down to breakfast!
Floyd: Um, I think you mean dinner.
Uh, right! Let's all go down to dinner! *confused look*

[BeakerSqueedom]

Beaker: *On Claudia's lap watching the History Channel*

Bunsen: So they suspect aliens created the pyramids of Egypt? *Next to Claudia*

Claudia: It makes sense.

Bunsen: *Scratches head at her weird comment* Well History is full of mystery but that is what makes discovering the unknown rather exciting.

Beaker: *Looking up to her reflecting Bunsen's uneasiness*

Claudia: Well, look at Gonzo. *Smirks*

Bunsen: *Looks confused*

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Nora: No, aliens did NOT create the Egyptian pyramids! And for that matter...
MN: Oh, pipe down, Nora, you're starting to sound like one of my old professors.
Nora: (parks on sofa in a huff) I resent that...ow. (rubs eyes)
MN: Sixth of July, same as me. And speaking of ancient Egyptian history, they've identified the mummy of Hatshepsut.
Nora: Oh?
MN: Yeah, it looks like she was one of a couple of female mummies found in a Valley of the Kings tomb in the 1900s. Apparently, they buried her in a plain tomb because her stepson was bent on erasing her from memory.
Storyteller: Goodness...royal silly creatures can be vengeful and petty sometimes.
MN: And so can the common silly creatures. But some silly creatures, royal or common, are capable of being nice from time to time.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: *Gasps* It's possible! *Listens for Nora's response* XD (LOL!)

Bunsen: There may be people sleeping Mi-

Claudia: *Covers his mouth with a slender hand* Hush up.

Beaker: Meemeee..

Bunsen: mmm I agree wif Noraff aff fmell Beakie *Trying to speak through her hand*

Claudia: *Alien freak major*

Bunsen: *Breaks free* You are acting childish. Be reasonable! Aliens could not have invited themselves to build such wonders as the pyramid--I mean they possess technology that we don't. So please explain to me...Why would they stoop so low as to build them...hmm? Consider that my wayward friend.

Claudia: hmph

Bunsen: *Whispers to Beaker* I'm afraid that we've a nutcase in the room.

Beaker: Mee *nod nod*


LOL!

[Erine81981]

Another Note:

Hey gang,
Just wanted to let everyone know that we are still at my parents house and still no internet. My mom called and it should be tusday of next week that someone will come out and cheak it and stuff. The monsters really miss everyone there. Grover hopes that Bill found Marty He told me that Super Grover tried his best but kept running into Old ladies, doggies, kitties and other people in help. Oscar is loving it and doens't want to come back. I don't know why. (You should see the old milk barn in the back of our house. It's torn down and just trashy. A Grouches heaven) But can't wait to be back and hope everything is going just fine there. In the words of some guys....Talk to yous guys later.

Sincerly your freinds,
Kyle, Grover, Herry, Murray, Maurice
and the grouch himself, Oscar.

[ZootyCutie]

Okay guys. From the top. One and two and.

Maddie: The color of infinity inside an empty glass
I'm squinting my eye and turning off
And on and on and off the light

Janice: It's for this experimental film
Which nobody knows about
And which I'm still figuring out
What's going to go in my experimental film?
Yeah—you're all gonna be in this experimental film
And even though I can't explain it
I already know how great it's

Dr. Teeth: I already know the ending it's
The part that makes your face implode
I don't know what makes your face implode
But that's the way the movie ends

Lips: And in my experimental film
Which nobody knows about
But which I'm still figuring out
Your face implodes at my experimental film
Yeah—you're all gonna be in this experimental film
And even though I can't explain it
I already know how great it's
Even though I can't explain it
I already know how great it's

Zoot: The color of infinity inside an empty glass
It's for this experimental film
Which nobody knows about
And which I'm still figuring out
What's going to go in my experimental film?

All: Yeah—you're all gonna be in this experimental film
And even though I can't explain it
I already know how great it's gonna—
Yeah—you're gonna be in this experimental film

Maddie: And even though I can't explain it
Janice: I already know how great it's
Dr. Teeth: Even though I can't explain it
All: I already know how great it's

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: *Running through the halls crazily* I LOVE MICHAEL JACKSON AND AM NOT AFRAID TO SAY IT! WHOOOHOOOOOOO! *Acts girly* OMG MY HAIR IS SO FAT--IT'S-IT'S SO AWESOME! I CAN MAKE AN AFRO OUT OF IT! HEEEEHEEE!

Bunsen: *Writing down notes* Excessive sugar (To be specific, 1 bag and a cup of soda which was was forced down her throat) in the body may cause: Lack of common sense, large smiles, wide eyes, confessing a love for strange celebrities, making ludricrous comments that are capable to make anyone raise a brow, and lastly be overly flirtacious.

Beaker: Meemee. *Concerned about her hyperactive state and his money* Meeemeeemeee?

Bunsen: Do not fear Beakie! In 30 minutes or less she will pass out from loss of energy where she won't have a chance to send us to court.

Claudia: I love your glasses Bunnie. They make you look cute *Grabs them and puts them on*

Bunsen: Oh well *Bashful* Thank yo- *Realizes he can't see* Where are my glasses? *Searches with his hands*

Claudia: Glasses make me look smart. XD

Bunsen: Beaker, get them for me or I'll have to reduce your salary! *Searches*

Beaker: D : MEEEMEEE!

Bunsen: Which is why you get it from her. The experiment is still in the process so anything that happens will put your check in constant liability.

Beaker: *Shakes head and sighs in agony*

Claudia: *Goes back into the room still in her own euphoria before sitting on the couch*

Beaker: *Tries to get the glasses off of her face*

Claudia: *Gives them to him* HEEEHEE *Twirls his hair* Hey there handsome. XD

Beaker: MEEEMEEEEMEEE! *Gives Bunsen his glasses and rushes out of the room*

Bunsen: *Puts on his glasses* *Sees a passed out Claudia* Er *Closes the room door*

Beaker: *Comes back in* Mee.

Bunsen: Good thing she is forgetful.

Beaker: *nod*

[Bill Bubble Guy]

New notice pinned up on community notice board:

Great news everybody. Marty is back. And so am I, Bill.
A terrible witch had imprisoned both of us in another dimension one by one and planned to trap even more dormies, but don't worry we were able to outwit her together and there is nothing to fear anymore.
We will be running around with bubbles every now and then to celebrate with our friends so you know in advance what to expect.
Thank you for all your support and concern and now we can have peace once more.

Regards Bill and Marty (It's terrific to be back folks)

[BeakerSqueedom]

Bunsen: Oh how delightful!

Claudia: Yes! YAY FOR MARTY!

Beaker: Mee!

Claudia: Are you sure that as you were working on your experiment I just passed out for no reason at all? *Scratches head*

Bunsen: But of course! *Collected*

Beaker: *Shaking*

Claudia: Oh well ok. : 3

Beaker: *Nervous/shaking*

Bunsen: *Clears throat at Beaker as a sign so that he can cool down*

Claudia: Oh Beaker, why are you shaking? *Blink blink*

Beaker: Meee. *Stiff*

Claudia: *Shrugs*

[Skeeter Muppet]

Kim: Whatcha up to, Betty Lou?
Betty Lou: I'm writing notes to Grover and Elmo, saying that I thought they did a good job singing for Paul Simon on television.
Kim: That's nice.
Boober: What's a Paul Simon?
Gillis: Oh, even I know this one! He's a Silly Creature Minstrel! Quite talented, too.
Kim: *nods* Gillis is right. They're giving him the Gerswin Prize for Popular Song.
Boober: Which song?
Kim: Dunno; a lot of them, I guess. Supposedly its hard to pick a favorite Paul Simon song. But they performed a lot of them during the award ceremony.
Gillis: Did they perform one of my favorites?
Kim: I don't know, Gil. If they did, I didn't catch it.
Tosh: What is your favorite, Gillis?
Gillis: Well, it's that one that got nominated for an Oscar a few years ago. It goes like this... If you leap awake
In the mirror of a bad dream
And for a fraction of a second
You can't remember where you are
Just open your window
And follow your memory upstream
To the meadow in the mountain
Where we counted every falling star

I believe the light that shines on you
Will shine on you forever
And though I can't guarantee
There's nothing scary hiding under your bed
I’m gonna stand guard
Like a postcard of a Golden Retriever
And never leave till I leave you
With a sweet dream in your head

I'm gonna watch you shine
Gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign
So you'll always know
As long as one and one is two
There could never be a father
Who loved his daughter more than I love you

Trust your intuition
It's just like going fishing
You cast your line
And hope you'll get a bite
But you don't need to waste your time
Worrying about the market place
Try to help the human race
Struggling to survive its harshest night

I'm gonna watch you shine
Gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign
So you'll always know
As long as one and one is two
There could never be a father
Who loved his daughter more than I love you

I'm gonna watch you shine
Gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign
So you'll always know
As long as one and one is two
There could never be a father
Who loved his daughter more than I love you.


Kim: *smiles* Beautiful, Maestro.

Claudia: *Sitting outside of the building* Check my homework?

Bunsen: Okie dokiee! Let us take a gander of your ability to get 'nerdy' and 'down with the game'. *Looks at her papers*

Beaker: *Sitting next to Claudia*

Bunsen: *Looks a little shocked* Where did Cyanide come into the equation of chemistry ?

Claudia: I got confused! XD

Bunsen: Here let me correct you,

In chemistry, we use symbols to represent the various chemicals. Success in chemistry depends upon developing a strong familiarity with these basic symbols. For example, the symbol "C" represents an atom of carbon, and "H" represents an atom of hydrogen. To represent a molecule of table salt, sodium chloride, we would use the notation "NaCl", where "Na" represents sodium and "Cl" represents chlorine. We call chlorine "chloride" in this case because of its connection to sodium. You should have reviewed naming schemes, or nomenclature, in earlier readings.

A chemical equation is an expression of a chemical process. For example:
AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) ---> AgCl (s) + NaNO3(aq)...*Continues blabbering*

Claudia: @__@ Oh I mistook chlorine for cynide, no wonder it sounded wierd. *Fixes*

Beaker: *Shakes head* Meemee.

Bunsen: Just like that time you mistook tentacles for-

Claudia: SHUT UP! XD

Bunsen: tstssst *Giggle*

Beaker: MEEP!

Claudia: WHY'D YOU GO AND SAY THAT BEAKER? XD *Glares*

Bunsen: Precisley so. *Smirks*

[Bill Bubble Guy]

Knocking on door 29.

Marty: Hey Bryan. It's great to be back! Hi Bert and Ernie.
Bill: And Big Bird, I hope you've gotten over the terrible fright you must have had when I suddenly disappeared before you. Here's that box of birdseed I promised you. And Telly, hi there to you as well.
Marty: Let's be merry everybody. It's time to celebrate.
Bill: Yeah. Here we go.

(they begin blowing bubbles all around dorm 29)

[Gloat]

*Adam (thats me), Boppity and Gloat walk up to the reception desk, Adam dings the the bell thingy* hello? I booked a room a while back, Room 23! *waits for reply...*

[The Count]

*Shows up at the reception desk. Sorry, didn't hear anyone ringing earlier. Ah yes, Adam and Boppity and Gloat... If you'll follow me, your room's ready.
*Grabs the key from its hook near the marble 23 from the desk's back wall and guides the new residents past the double doors. OK, that big room directly in front of us is the common room. Oscar lives in the trashcan in the back left corner. Your room's directly next to the common room. We just turn to our left, and it's the first door on our right.
*Hands the key to the room to Adam. This is probably the second most crowded area of the dorms. Most of the more popular people live in this part, Lisa, Ryan "Prawny", Kyle, Peter, Maddie, and Bryan, along with all of their roomies.

Hope you enjoy it here during your temporary summer-long triaal membership stay and have a great time. Welcome to the MC Dorms.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Bunsen: We must welcome the new person!

Beaker: *Opens the door fully to take a peek at Adam*

Claudia: Stop spying on the new resident.

Bunsen: We are not spying. We are thinking on how to welcome this Adam fellow..usually Big Bird does these type of things so wonderfully.

Claudia: Aw, that's nice!

Beaker: *Goes to Adam* *Clears his throat* Meep meep meep meeemomwee mee mee...mee mee! *Continues with the welcoming speech*

--

Claudia: Oh wait!

Bunsen: Mmm?

Claudia: Adam probably won't understand Beaker! O_o

Bunsen: Oh! Bust my buttons! I kind of get a little oblivious about Beaker's strange speech since I seem to understand him quite perfectly.

Claudia: It's because you've been working with him since--EVER!

Bunsen: *Goes to greet Adam and to assist Beaker*

[tvlistingman]

PETER: Good Morning, everybody

ZOE: Good Morning, Peter

BABY BEAR: Morning, Peter

LITTLE BIRD: Good Morning Pete, What should we do today?

PETER: We can do a little grocery shopping and before that some breakfast at Everybody Eats, okay

BABY BEAR: Okay!

[Gloat]

Adam: *waves to Bunsen and Beaker* hey guys, havent got time to talk right now, i gotta get my room sorted and it should be done within... say the next 2 days. I'll talk to you lot later *uses the keys to open the room and walks in*

Boppity: *shakes Bunsen and Beakers hands and follows Adam into the room*

Gloat: *thanks Count for keys and walks in*

(Room description coming soon)

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: It sure has been quiet in this room...
Clifford: I think Gonzo might be sick.
Ryan: Why?
Clifford: Why else would it be quiet, man?
Ryan: Good point.

[Gloat]

*Adam, Boppity and Gloat look around their room*

Boppity: ooh! i get that bed! *points to the bed by the window and jumps on it, which means Adam and Gloat have to sleep on the beds on each side of the room with no windows*

Adam: we cant call beds just like that, you have to call shotgun *jumps next to him* Shotgun! *Adam pushes Boppity off the bed*

Boppity: Dang

Adam: *looks around the room* hmm, this place needs decorating, and we need some drinks, was a long journey here, one of you get some please

*Boppity walks out to get some drinks*

[BeakerSqueedom]

Bunsen & Beaker: *Comes back to the dorm room*

Claudia: Hey guys. Got to greet him?

Bunsen: Mmhmm.

Beaker: Meep meep.

Claudia: Ok. : )

Beaker: ....

Bunsen: You seem less talkative today.

Claudia: Yah.

Beaker: Meep.

(A plate of fresh sesame seed honey bars are wrapped up and left on the doorstep of room 23 with a note from the people at room 29 (Bryan, Big Bird, Telly Monster, Bert and Ernie) welcoming them to the dorms)

[The Count]

Hope to hear from Bry to move on to Haunter #5... Also wonder when Cath will update KG in the fanfic library, so anxious to read what she's scheming...

[redBoobergurl]

Beth: Hey guys, sorry things have been so crazy lately and I haven't been around as much
Red: It's ok
Wanda: Yeah, we understand
Cookie: Me miss you though
Beth: Yeah, I miss you guys too. I promise we'll have lots of fun this week, it's the 4th of July on Wednesday and you know what that means!
Red: Party!
Wanda: Fireworks!
Cookie: COOKIES!
Beth: *laughs* All of the above.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: Oh my gosh. How could I forget July the fourth?

Bunsen: Do not worry I shall buy some of the firecrackers at the tent not so far away.

Claudia: Nah, we do not need those. We can just get your experiments and light them on fire. :D

Bunsen: Don't you dare Miss Claudia. I mean what are you? A pyromaniac?

Claudia: No...D: but but

Bunsen: Mmm-mm

Claudia: *Sulk*

[Gloat]

*Adam opens the door to find wrapped up honey bars on the doorstep* Oooooh, how nice, ill have to thank those guys next time i see them *sneaks the bars back inside and under his bed so no one else will find them, then goes out to buy paint for the room*

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Nora: So what are we doing for the 4th?
MN: Hmm, what about a picnic down in the park, near where they're doing the fireworks?
Nora: Not too close...
MN: Yeah, I know what you mean, I'm freaked by loud noises.
Storyteller: And I hear Bunsen's going to go buy some firecrackers.
MN: Poor Beaker...
Nora: About the picnic...what should we bring?
Storyteller: Hmm, hmm...well, some sandwiches, some salad...ooh, maybe a quiche...
MN: And assorted desserts and drinks. It's just got to be portable.

[anytimepally]

Johnny: Man, am I exhausted!
Randall: Why's that, Johnny?
Johnny: I had to get up today, didn't I?
Randall: (laughing) I guess you didn't have to... you don't have any shows this week.
Sal: Yeah, yeah.. it's Johnny's week off!
Don: A week off? July 4th week?.. no one wants you to sing at an Independence Day concert? I must've gotten fifteen requests today.. I'll be working from dawn to dusk!
Johnny: It's not that, it's Ma.. she insists that we drive the entire length of New Jersey every July 4th.
Don: Why?
Johnny: I dunno.. I always assmued it was because she wanted to make sure it was still there
Sal: Yeah, yeah, yeah.. it's hard to pay attention once she gets going, but I think it had something to do with 4th of July fireworks blowing small holes throughout the state.
Randall: So, she thinks Jersey is slowing being chipped away?
Sal: Yeah, yeah.. that's it!
Randall: (shrugging) Eh, that's a good enough reason for me.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *yawns* Uncle D., I've been writing all day... can I please take a break?

XD That made me giggle.


Bunsen: *Comes back with firecrackers* I know who will do the lighting.

Beaker: *Gasp* Meeemeee!

Bunsen: Exactly!

Claudia: Aw, they are just fireworks Beakie.

Beaker: *Stares at me as if I was run over by a truck* BOOM! Meeemeemee! *Points to self and flails arms madly*

*Adam is adding the finishing touches to the room, Boppity and Gloat walk in with Light Green and Dark Blue piant*

Boppity: We got the paint ya wanted, can we get lunch now?

Gloat: Yeh, we're hungry

Adam: You havent actually helped decorate the room at all yet, you left it all for me to do

Boppity: Good exercise

Gloat: And it means your not annoying us all the time, only occasionally with ya whining

Adam *opens paint cans and covers each of them in their own colour and begins slamming them against the wall* Now you're being helpful

[BeakerSqueedom]

Bunsen: *Hears slamming* Oh my.

Beaker: Mee.

Claudia: That's what lazy people get when they don't do anything to help their room buddy. I got us some cool clothes for tommorow's event! We are going to be uber patriotic--I think we'd make Uncle Sam jealous!

Bunsen: Sam is your uncle?

Claudia: *Blink* Not OUR Sam...America's old man Sam

Bunsen: So it is not the Sam that we know? It's the other Sam that we know that holds the flag?

Claudia: Yes, it's the patriotic Sam.

Beaker: Meemeemee!

Claudia: I know Sam is patriotic too but we are talking about the other Sam.

Bunsen: Oh I understand which Sam now. Yes, the one with the really huge finger.

Claudia: *Head spinny* I need to rest. Too many Sams.

Bunsen: Or perhaps Sammity-Sam...

Claudia: *Groans*

[The Count]

Just so long as it's not that guy who keeps pushing green eggs and ham on you for breakfast, lunch and/or dinner. It's a good dish to make when you want something new, but I'm not going back there anytime soon.
*Looks over first five entries. *Smiles. Just a little tweaks to that last one, and I'll either start work on the next five to finish the group or send 'em off.

Come on Count, let's go get a bagel or doughnut at Jim's Coffee House. Heard Christy's doing her shift there now.
Count: Coming... *Finishes fiddling with a red white and blue and white starred piece of sewing with the spiders, then goes to meet Ed at the elevator.

[Gloat]

*The room is finally finished, the beds are all fixed up with added drawers, the quilts are each coloured and lined with the same coloured fur. There are new curtains and a new thick wooden window frame. The door has a new shiny brass knob. The carpet is now cream coloured and soft on the feet, and there is a large dining table placed in the middle of the room with a candle holder (a hint of class to the room). Multi-coloured bean-bags line the edges of the room and there is a small desk in a corner with a portable coffee machine and several mugs. The final touch is that the wall around is painted purple, with Boppity and Gloat shapes in their respected colours placed conveniently on top of the purple, this came from the earlier rampage, Adam thought it looked good*

Adam: hmm... looks good i think, especially each of your shapes on the wall of you two being pummelled into it.

Gloat: *rubbing head* could you paint over it? its embarrasing

Adam: no

[The Count]

Hello from the dorms management team.

Just wanted to wish everybody a happy and safe 4th of July, or United States' Independence Day as it's more commonly known. There'll be a picnic in the park, barbecue at the poolhouse, and of course fireworks later tonight. Wonder if I still have some of the special ones from a few years back, will probably have to talk to Gonzo to get some new ones given we've had so many new faces join the dorms. Oh well... Have fun everybody. See you at the party this evening.

[Gloat]

Boppity: *sitting on his new bed* Hey Adam, what you doing this evening? you're British

Adam: I dunno, I'm new here and i need to meet new people, but its a day for the Americans, not a day i should be celebrating. I thought we could watch some TV *points at new TV which he just bought* and drink some latte. Sound alright?

Boppity: Latte?

Adam: Just had it installed in the coffee machine, along with Expresso. Gonna be the ultimate party here tonight

Gloat: Can we play Twister?

Adam: no

[The Count]

Hey Adam... Just cause it's an American holiday that doesn't mean you can't come to have fun with the rest of us. It's OK if you want to stay in your room, it's your choice. But know that you, as well as everybody living here are invited to the various parties planned for later today.

[theprawncracker]

Gonzo: Whoo! This party's gonna be awesome! I can't wait for the fireworks!
Ryan: You're not gonna pull another stunt like you did last year, are you?
Gonzo: Of course I am! What would a Fourth of July party be without it?
Ryan: Safe.
Gonzo: Exactly! How boring is that?

[The Count]

Well.. It won't be boring for a certain prawn I know if more story doesn't get posted, fright Uncle D?
*Moves off to start prepping the bat's claw cole slaw and potato salad.
Hope Kathy drops by, we'd sure love some of her famous devilled eggs. Ryan, you and Bry are on the grill. Count's spicing the burger patties and I hope Clifford doesn't mind brushing the ribs with some of his homemade BBQ sauce. Cookie and the Chef should have dessert ready, heard they were making American apple-walnut pies.

*Listening to MC Radio... *Chops veggies to the tune of Turn The World Around.

[redBoobergurl]

Red: Woo-hoo, party!
Beth: Everything all ship shape with the pools Red?
Red: I'm checking on that right now, see you! *goes to make sure pool is clean*
Wanda: I'm so excited
Beth: Me too
Cookie: Me like parties too

[Fragglemuppet]

Gobo: So Kate, will you be at the party this evening?
*sighing* I don't know. I really want to, and I know I haven't been socializing with the people here much, but I've got another party out of town to go to.
Wembly, *disapointedly* Oh.
But I'll tell you what. I'm sure this party will be going late, and I shouldn't be so late coming back from the other one. So when I get back, if I still hear the sounds of partying, then I'll come.
Wembly: Oh great!
So you just go and have fun, and I'll meet you later, okay?
Gobo: Okay, it's a deal!

[theprawncracker]

Clifford: Hey, hey, Ryguy!
Ryan: Hey Cliff, what's up?
Clifford: Not much, but I've got a little problem with the par-tay tonight.
Ryan: Oh? What's that?
Clifford: My man Ed wants me to rub barbecue sauce on the ribs.
Ryan: *blink* And...?
Clifford: Man, do you know what ribs are made of?
Ryan: Por- Ohhhh.
Clifford: Ya see my problem!
Ryan: Yeah, well... um, why don't you go talk to Ed, I'm sure that maybe we can find tofu ribs... or something.
Clifford: Yeah, well, that's the other problem.
Ryan: How do ya mean?
Clifford: I hate tofu!
Ryan: Sheesh...

[Muppet Newsgirl]

MN: I've finished the scones, I've got a pan of brownies in the oven, and I'm prepping a nice big pan of cranberry bars.
Storyteller: There are three salads - garden, pasta and Asian-style - in the fridge, and I am preparing a nice big bowl of radish gazpacho.
Nora: I'll get going on the sandwiches...where are those bagels and croissants we got at the bakery?
MN: In the cabinet, third from the right. And there are some tortillas in there, so you might want to get going on the cheese and vegetable enchiladas fairly soon. Storyteller, would you kindly prep the quiche while I start brewing a few pots of tea?
Storyteller: Will do.
Nora: It's rather neat that we're prepping foods that originate from all over the world.
MN: Well, why not? Seeing as we all hail from various parts of the world, it's only fitting. And the way I see it, we're not only celebrating the U.S. today, but also the world.
Nora: But...this is way more food than we could ever eat.
Storyteller: So we share with everyone else. It's more fun that way. And judging from what I've heard about the food that Ed and the others are preparing, no one's going to go hungry tonight.

[The Count]

*In the common room kitchen... Aw man, there's a new hot dog eating champ.
Count: That's 129 hot dogs between the two of them!

*Clifford comes to talk about the ribs. Oh hey, it's the host of Muppets Tonight... Clifford!
Sorry bout that man. You huh? Nah, they're beef ribs, nothing to worry about. Just make sure Ryan posts more story today, we'll want something good to entertain us while we eat.
Count: Hexcuse me, but the owen fries are ready.
Thanks buddy. Now get going Clifford, that grill's waiting for some meat.

*Checks on the spiderweb frosting oatmeal scotch cookie cakes.

[Katzi428]

Prairieknocking on Room 1's door Hi Ed. Kathy made her famous deviled eggs for the party.But she got hardly any sleep last night.Not from making the deviled eggs though.She had a bad stomachache.:( So we won't be at the party tonight.Hope you all have fun!

[The Count]

*Hears knocking. *Hollers through the emptied trashcan in the common room, we're upstairs!
Wonder if that was Prairie. Oh well. Count, keep an eye out for Bryan, he said he'd get the sesame seed buns and help with the gril. Bert and Ernie might be coming by later with the ice cream from Hooper's too.
Count: *Dipping a few fries in the mayotard-catsup sauce, yes sir.

[Fragglemuppet]

Me: *sigh*
Lou: What is it?
Well, the party I was supposed to go to is cancelled. So now we'll be going to my aunt's house, which probably means I'll be back sooner, but I can't really be too sure.
Wembly: Will you still come to the party here?
Yes, if I can, but you go and have a good time, and one way or another, I'll see you later.
Gobo: Okay then, let's go!
Well, I don't think it's actually started; some people are just now preparing.
*gets an idea* Say Lou or Gobo?
both: Yes?
Could one of you run down to the gorg's garden, and get me one or two nice fresh raddishes?
Lou: Sure, I'll go. I've been there with Mokey before, and she showed me how it's done. Shouldn't be too hard though, now that the gorgs know us better.
Thanks Lou, I know it's kind of a lot to ask at the last minute.
Lou: No trouble at all!

*two and a half hours later...*

There, now I've done my part. I hope everyone likes a nice Greek salad as much as I do!
Gobo: Boy, it sure looks good!
Thanks. Say, I probably won't be here, so would the three of you please carry this dish down to the pool area for me? Oh, never mind. The Count and Ed are probably down there now, not to mention a lot of the other guys. I'll just cary it down now. Thanks again for the help.
Lou: No problem.

*I take the dish and bring it outside.*

[The Count]

*With the help of some of the Muppet residents, the food's moved over to the poolhouse. Aw, that's too bad Prairie. Tell Kath we hope she gets better. Maybe if Storyteller made some, and there's enough left, we can send some good thin lentil or noodle soup her way. Along with a pack of soft sweet-salty soda crackers, I know you like those too.

Oh hi Kate. Thanks for the salad, it'll go great with the burgers. Hope you have fun at your aunt's. The Fraggles are welcome to hang out here, we could use some fine merry music makers like them to liven things up.

[tvlistingman]

PETER: Happy 4th of July, Everybody

LITTLE BIRD: I Hear theres a Party for the 4th tonight

PETER: Yes

BABY BEAR: I'm going to bring the apples and oranges

PETER: And I'll Bring the Angel Food Cake

ZOE: And I'll bring the Strawberries and Blueberries

LITTLE BIRD: And I'm going to bring Fruit Punch!

PETER: This is going to be a GREAT 4th OF JULY AT THE DORMS!

[BEAR]

Bry: Hey, Ed! Hope we're not too late. Had to pick up some salmon fillets from the store to put on the grill. Big Bird, did you bring the sesame seed buns?
Big Bird: I thought Telly was getting those.
Telly: Oh no! I forgot!
Bry: No worries. I'll go back upstairs and get them.
Bert: Hey, Ernie. What kind of ice cream did we get.
Ernie: Well, I couldn't decide on what flavor and we all have such different tastes.
Bert: Yeah...?
Ernie: So I got all 31 flavors! Khekhekhe!
Bry: I wonder if Ed still has some of those special fireworks I gave him last year...

[ZootyCutie]

Janice, could you come here for a second?

Janice: Like, sure. What is it Maddie?


I can't decide what song would be the best to play at the Fourth of July party. I can't decide between this one and this one.

Janice: Like, I'd do that one. But why did you want my decision instead of one of the boys?


Because you were the only one not hanging on a step ladder trying to put up a banner that we're going to have to help them with.

Janice: Good point. I rully hope that we will rock the song tonight.


I'm sure we will. With the Mayhem, anything is possible. Except for hanging up a banner.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Hey Cliff, how's the barbecue goin'?
Clifford: *watching ribs cook* Goin' good, dude.
Ryan: Great! Well I'm upstairs with Uncle D. and Camilla making some mac 'n' cheese, Gonzo's distracting Rizzo from the food.
Clifford: Cool dude. Hey, could ya ask Uncle D. to make some punch or something? Think we're a little short on drinks down here.
Ryan: I'll have Gonzo and Rizzo pick up some soda and juice boxes.
Clifford: Thanks dude! Now get back to writin', or I think you'll be the one goin' up in smoke.

[The Count]

Oh hey Bry... Just in time. Cliff's taking care of the grill and the grind, talk to him about those lumps of lox you brought.
Actually... Not sure whether to use those ones I got from you or the ones for our friends... Wanna have something really special since so many new people have moved in... Guess that's why I'm going with the second set that Gonzo provided. Hope that's OK.

[Ruahnna]

(Piggy emerges from her room swathed form head to high heels in her dorm robe, a large straw hat, large dark sunglasses, and carrying a beach bag the approximate size of Texas. Kermit looks up. He is dressed as usual, which is to say, not at all, and it is possible that he registers some disappointment at Piggy's attire, or at least the amount of it. Fozzie is wearing swim trunks with pictures of rubber chickens on them.)
Kermit: Got the relish tray?
Fozzie: Check.
Kermit: How 'bout the baked beans?
Fozzie: Check.
Kermit: Brownies?
Fozzie: I've got brownies.
Piggy: I've got blondies.
Kermit: Okay, as soon as Catherine comes out, we're good to go.
Piggy: Why on earth does it take her that long to get into her bathing suit?
(For a moment, Kermit and Fozzie try not to look at each other or let the corners of their mouths quirk up.)
Kermit: (murmuring) Yes, pot, the kettle is black.
Piggy: What?
Kermit: Nothing. Um, maybe she's not dressed yet because she made all this food.
Fozzie: Oh, yeah.
(Catherine emerges. She is not--quite--as covered up as Piggy, but she is smiling and ready to go.)
Catherine: I'm as ready as I'm going to get! Let's hit the road!
Fozzie: To get to the other side.
(Kermit just looks at him.)
Fozzie: Sorry--reflex.
(The men hold the door and the ladies sweep past them. Out in the hall, Catherine turns to Piggy, looking at her complete coverage.)
Catherine: (dryly) Worried about sunburn? I think it's a little too late in the day to be worried.
Piggy: (smugly) Nope.
Catherine sees the look in her eye and wonders about it They arrive poolside, and after they have added their food to the table, she steps close to Piggy, her voice pitched low.)
Catherine: Piggy--why are you dressed like that? Doesn't seem your style.
(Without warning, Piggy throws off the robe and hat, and takes off the sunglasses while she shakes her blonde hair around her shoulders. Kermit's mouth falls open and he sits suddenly, staring in happy befuddlement at her spandex-clad form.)
Kermit: Wow....
Piggy: (murmuring to Catherine) Any more questions?
Catherine: Nope. *sigh* C'mon Fozzie--last one in is a rotten egg!
KERSPLASH!

[The Count]

*Floating peacibly in the innertube chair... Mmm, good times this July 4th. Wonder if Maddie'll do an ode to Encyclopedia and show up with frizzy rocked out red-white-and-blue hair ready to belt out a tune on the glockenspiel along with the rest of the band.
*Goes back to dreamily hoping for more fanfic from a certain aunt who will remain nameless.

Count, happily counting the friends around him and just sitting on the steps near the shallow end off to the side not blocking anyone's path who wants to get into the pool there: Mmm, this is nice. Good to just get avay from everything once in a while. Hope Gonzo got the message to get the firevorks lit around elewen tonight.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *lounging on a raft in the pool* Hey Ed my man, Gonzo's got the fireworks set-up and ready to launch whenever you give him the go-ahead.
Uncle Deadly: *at the snack table* Yes, yes, and we do hope you like the snacks we've prepared.

[ZootyCutie]

Hello, Muppet College Dorms! Are you ready to rock?

Dr. Teeth: Two, three, four!

Maddie: They come from the cities
And they come from the smaller towns
Beat up cars with guitars and drummers
Goin crack boom bam

Janice: R.o.c.k. in the u.s.a.
R.o.c.k. in the u.s.a.
R.o.c.k. in the u.s.a., yeah, yeah!

Dr. Teeth: Said goodbye to their families
Said goodbye to their friends

And very little money in their hands
Some are black and some are white
Ain't to proud to sleep on the floor tonight
With the blind faith of jesus you know that they just might, be
Rockin' in the u.s.a.

Zoot: Voices from nowhere
And voices from the larger towns
Filled our head full of dreams
Turned the world upside down

Lips: There was frankie lyman-bobby fuller-mitch ryder

Thank you! Patriotism swells in the heart of the American band.

[The Count]

*Applauding the performance...

To Ryan: Thanks buddy, that'll be the big finale of the night.
*Sips at his glass of lemon-lime soda while the bats bring over a platter of tarantula fry legs.
Mmm, crunchy!
Count: Probably used some finger-ling potatoes and plenty of garlic salt eh Uncle D?
*Light chuckle.

Come on guys, the band's a rockin' and the hunger's a knockin'.
All gather either at the buffet line (sorry Rizzo, it's not Jimmy's) or divert their attention playing in the lapping waters of the pool, while others auditively appreciate the inhouse tunes of the Electric Mayhem, backed by Hoots on secondary sax.

[theprawncracker]

Rizzo: *sitting in the chip bowl chowing down* Man, I love holidays! Heh heh!
Gonzo: *shakes head* Well, just make sure you're ready to help me with the fireworks.
Rizzo: Yeah, yeah, I got it, whatever.
Gonzo: Can't you just call me Gonzo?

[The Count]

You know... Rully thought there'd be a bigger turnout. Draw out some of the reclusive people and maybe some of the newer people. Oh well, I'm sure they're having fun wherever they are.
Hey Cliff... Gimme a couple of ribs and a mess of your mama's barbecue.
Hmm, that sounds like a song cue to me.

*Gets paper plate loaded up with ribs and oven-made garlic fries, a brownie or two, an oatmeal scotchi cookie cake, and a cup of cole slaw along with a mini bottle of soda.

[theprawncracker]

Clifford: Heh heh, enjoy man! Worked hard on that food, ya know.
Ryan: I know, I was there. *dries self off*
Clifford: Done swimmin', eh?
Ryan: Yup. Too dark out. And I'm hungry. *eats*

[redBoobergurl]

Red: Ooh, it's starting to get dark!
Wanda: Almost time for fireworks!
Cookie: Me still hungry
Beth: I think there's still plenty of food Cookie, go help yourself
Cookie: Ok!

[theprawncracker]

Rizzo: *defends the food with his life* Back off fuzzy!

[redBoobergurl]

Cookie: Who you call fuzzy? Me make you deal, me just want more dessert, you get all the meat and cheese and bread

[theprawncracker]

Rizzo: *ponders* ...Okay, deal, but only if ya save me a piece of cake.

[redBoobergurl]

Cookie: Deal! Me mostly after cookies anyway. Kind of in my name, you know?

[theprawncracker]

Rizzo: ...Oh! So d'at's what d'at means!
Ryan: Hey there Cookie Monster! Everything going okay? Lemme know if you like the cookies, Uncle Deadly, Camilla and I made 'em.
Camilla: Bragawk bawk byuck bawk!
Ryan: Oh, yeah, and um- *whispers in Cookie's ear* We've got batch hidden under the table for you to take home.

[tvlistingman]

At the Party

PETER: This is a Great Party

LITTLE BIRD: Good Food

ZOE: Yummy FOod

BABY BEAR: Great Fun and Swimming

PETER: We are waiting for Fireworks!

[ZootyCutie]

Janice: Like, here we go! One and two and.

Maddie: If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
With just my friends and my life,
I'd thank my lucky stars
To be livin' here today.
Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away.

Janice: And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

Dr. Teeth: From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea
From Detroit down to Houston
And New York to LA
Well there's pride in every American heart
And its time we stand and say

Zoot: That I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

Lips: And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

[The Count]

Oh man... Am I stuffed, good food though. Hi Cookie Monster, was hoping you and your roomies would show up.
There are some cookie cakes cut up into small squares if you want some. They're made using a Tollhouse recipe, after I sampled the cookie they're made from myself last week, oatmeal with crushed nuts and butterscotch pieces.

Hey Ry, better tell Gonzo we're almost ready for the fireworks display.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *salutes* Yessir, Ed, sir! Gonzo! Fireworks!
Gonzo: *on the roof of the Dorms* Finally! Ready, Rizzo?
Rizzo: *eats a popsicle* Yeah, yeah.
Gonzo: Fire one! *lights off first rocket* Whoo! Fire TWO! *fires second rocket*
Rizzo: *gets caught by second rocket's rope* AHHHH! I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR D'IS!
Ryan: Ooh! Look! I'm seeing stars!
Clifford: Nah, that's just Rizzo.

[Fragglemuppet]

Me: *hearing Rizo screaming, and standing nearby laughing* Boy, I'm glad I didn't miss this. Nice way to kick back after the kaos at my aunt's house, what with four of the most ill-mannered children you could ever want to see running around. Oh well, I wonder where the fraggles are?
*goes to get a plate of food and bumps into someone* Oops, sorry... Oh, high Lou! I was wondering where you guys were.
Lou: Oh, hey! I was helping Wembly decide which foods to take, and I think Gobo's..um..somewhere.
Okay then, I'm going to get myself a plate.
Lou: Alright, we'll come join you whin a few minutes.
Alright, see ya! *goes down the table, filling plate with ribs, a sampling of each type of salad, a blondie, and a couple of scottie cookies*

[Ruahnna]

(Kermit and Piggy are sitting on a bench near the pool watching the fireworks display with their arms companionably around each other. Piggy leans her head over on Kermit's shoulder.)
Piggy: Happy, Mon Capitan?
Kermit: Yeah. Nice Independence Day.
Piggy: (dryly) Independence is highly over-rated.
(In the darkness, Kermit gulps.)
Kermit: I was, um, thinking that myself.
Piggy: (uncertain) Kermie?
Kermit: I, um, especially liked the fireworks.
Piggy: The sparkly kind or the loud kind?
Kermit: (turning to look at Piggy. His bulbous froggy eyes are all dreamy) Neither.
THere is a long silence, then Piggy snuggles a little closer and sighs.
Piggy: Good answer.
Kermit: Yeah--I thought so, too.

[The Count]

That's weird... Then again, anything involving Gonzo is weird. But I thought we remembered to light the rocket, not the rat... Light the rocket not the rat. Oh well.

Ladies and gentle-Muppets, I give you the 2007 Fourth of July MC Dorms fireworks display!
*Flails arms about in the air... Yaeey!

The rockets burst into colorful outlines of all the Muppets currently living at the dorms, along with a few additional notable names from all sections of the Muppet Universe.
Count: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9... 23, 24, 25 Muppet friends in firevork form!

The voices of the dorms' raise high to the heavens.
Count: O say, can you see?
Red: By the dawn's early light.
Clifford: What so proudly we hail.
Big Bird: At the twilight's last gleaming.

Prairie: The broad stripes and bright stars.
Beth: Through the perilous fight.
Uncle D: O'er the ramparts we watched.
Ryan: Was so gallantly streaming.

Erin and Nora: The red rockets bright glare...
Bert and Ernie: The bombs bursting in air.
Kathy: Gave proof through the night...
Fozzie: That our flag was still there.

Catherine: O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave.
Miss Piggy: For the land of the freeeeeee.
Bryan: And the home...
Ed: Of the...
Kermit, taking the lead, though everyone else harmonizes at the same time carrying the last few words: Braaaaaaaaaaaave!

[BEAR]

Bry: hey who's up for some of my delicious frozen pina colada drink with festive red cherries and blueberry garnish on top? Non alcoholic of course.

[The Count]

*Rats and bats show up singing... If you like piña coladas... And walks in the rain...
Sure Bry, I'll take one. Haven't had a taste of the homeland's delicacies in a long while.

[Fragglemuppet]

Sure, why not? Thanks Bry. *takes sip* Mmm, very good! You wouldn't happen to have some dixie cups for the fraggles, would you?

[The Count]

Dixie cups... Fright here on the table Kate.
*Flexes wrist and hand showing her where the paper cups are located amidst all the food on the buffet.

[redBoobergurl]

Beth: Mmm pina coladas...so festive

[The Count]

Uh yes... No offense, but if it's what I think they're made of, I'll leave the "pina" coladas alone and stick to "piña" coladas instead.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Dang... I didn't get any of the frozen drinks Bry had last night.
Uncle Deadly: Why not? I'm sure they were non-alcoholic.
Ryan: Sure, the ones with the little tilda over the 'N' were, but not the ones without the tilda!
Uncle Deadly: And...?
Ryan: And I don't know how to type a tilda!
Uncle Deadly: *headslap* Unbelievable...

[The Count]

Ry, it's easy. Just drop me a PM and I'll show you how to do it.

Mmm, lots of good food last night. And there's plenty for leftovers for today and tomorrow.
Count: Not if Rizzo or Cookie Monster get to it first.
Good point.

[Bill Bubble Guy]

Bill: Sorry we were unable to make the party.
Marty: Yeah. I've been very busy since I escaped from that witch catching up with my mother and making arrangements for starting some volunteer work with Salvation Army.
Bill: And I've been supporting Marty as best as I can.
Marty: But let us liven things up with some bubbles to put an end to the festivities.
(bubbles bubbles bubbles flying all over the place while the two of them jump around dancing and laughing)

[Katzi428]

Prairie:Hi Kath! Feeling better?
Yeah..thanks,prairie.Sorry I missed the celebration last night though.
Prairie:That's OK.We know you weren't feeling well.Besides...we saved some stuff for you.
You did?
Rositacoming out of the kitchenWe know how much you love piňa coladas.So I made a small pitcher for you.:)
Ahhh...bless you two!pouring myself a glass Mmmmm...just the way I like it!Thanks!
Rosita:You're welcome. We got you some potato salad and hot dogs.
Prairie:And for dessert.....a slice of cake that looked like a flag!See...the strawberries are red,the star marshmallows are white and the blueberries are blue!
Incredible! Thanks so much,girls.
Rosita:You're welcome.There's more stuff in the refrigerator in Common Room 1 if you want it.
Good.I might,later.

[theprawncracker]

Rizzo: *laying in hammock in pain* Oh my poor little achin' body...
Ryan: *swims up to the side of the pool* That firework really made you hot under the collar, eh?
Rizzo: I'd laugh, but my poor little lungs can't take it.
Ryan: Hm, well, sorry Riz. If ya feel better you can come jump in the pool with us.
Gonzo: *does a swan dive into the water, splashing Rizzo*
Rizzo: ...I t'ink I'll nearly drown enough from up here.
Ryan: *shakes off water on head* Suit yourself! Gonzo! Get your big blue nose back here! *swims off after Gonzo*

[The Count]

*Observing Prawny from within our two-man sub... Wery intereschting... But schtupid.
The periscope sinks back beneath the waves before attracting any unwanted attention.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Bunsen: *Wearing big uncle sam hat*

Beaker: Meemee.

Bunsen: Claudia is missing!

Beaker: MEEE! D:

Bunsen: I will have to locate her with my machine...but first I must attend the party. :3

Beaker: *Looks at him blankly* *shakes head*




OOC:3 I will not be here. Internet is down at home. I am at the college.

[The Count]

*Drying off and going to go get some of the blondies Cath made that were leftover and stored in the fridge. Hah, that's a good bit of fun in the pool. Just waiting to hear from Beth, maybe she'll have some story posted soon or some advice for that project of mine.
Count: Which project?
You know the one, the one I keep switching my mind on.
Count: Ah yes... The ones done so far are wery much to my liking.
Thanks, I try. Stumped as to #7, but let's see what we hear from that cyber-cousin of mine.

*Both leave to get a snack and then watch some afternoon TV.

[Beakerfan]

Aw, I missed another party... Oh well. I don't think it would have been safe to have Animal around on Independence Day. *begins cleaning up the mess left over from last night*

[Erine81981]

Letter arrives:

Hey guys, girls and other creatures,
This is your one and only freind Kyle wanting to let everyone know i'm still alive and that our internet is down still. The monsters are alright and even Oscar is having fun. (Kind of weird that he's having fun) But talk to ya'll later and we'll be back later on. See ya'll soon. Bye.


Your freinds,
Kyle, Grover, Herry, Murray, Maurice and Oscar.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Bunsen: Oh Beakie--the sensors on my machine are sounding strongly but there is still no sign of Miss Claudia. Perhaps, there is an error? *Sighs*

Beaker: *Sighs*

Bunsen: *Rests head on hand sadly*
-
Claudia: *Comes out from the closet* Wow, it's a jungle in there!

Bunsen and Beaker: *Jumps*

Claudia: *Giggle snort* Hey guys!

Beaker: MEEEMEE! *Clings to leg*

Bunsen: Oh Miss Claudia! We missed you so!

Claudia: It's only been a few days!

Bunsen: I little too long to be stuck in a closet.

Beaker: *Nod nod*

Claudia: I was being eaten once again by your man eating garbage can.

Bunsen: *Looks innocent*


OOC: I AM FREE! I'VE THE INTERNET BACK! XD WHHOOOHOO!

[Fragglemuppet]

*sigh* I'm hot, and bored.
Wembly: Me too.
Gobo: Yeah.
Lou: Wanna go for a swim in the pool?
Sure,just let me get changed, and I'll be ready. Be back in a few minutes!
*goes in closet to change, and the four of us head to the pool*
*at the pool*
Gobo: Oh, hi Ryan! Some party last night, eh? Boy, those fireworks were really something!
Wembly: I'll say!
Lou: Oh, they were something alright. Just look at poor Rizo! *goes over to Rizo* Honey, are you alright? Should I go upstairs and make you a miniature moss pack?
jMe: *looking on from my own floating chair and trying not to laugh*

[Muppet Newsgirl]

(at table, over a dinner of leftover quiche, salad and gazpacho)

MN: From the sounds of it, they've put an APB out on Claudia.
Nora: I heard. She went AWOL earlier today.
Storyteller: No, perhaps closer to MIA.
MN: Sending out an SOS...
Nora: WTH?
MN: (warning note) Translation, please?
Nora: What the hey?
Storyteller: That's what I thought you said. But anyway, she's back safe and sound now, so I've heard from Bunsen and Beaker.
MN: That's good, we don't like it when our dorm mates vanish without rhyme or reason. (slurps up some gazpacho) After dinner, what say we go out for ice cream?
Nora: Oooh! I hear Deep Freeze has a new flavor - chocolate-orange swirl.
Storyteller: And Cold Comfort's now offering ice cream cake.
MN: Ah, decisions, decisions. They're both within walking distance, so either one will work. But that chocolate-orange swirl sounds awfully tempting.

[The Count]

Would recommend you get the chocolate-orange swirl, we've got flag cake in the fridge. You know, if you added vanilla to that, you'd get one of my fave flaves, which my tombmate happens to like as well, Transylvania Twist.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: I feel like hugging every single person here after that terrible fight with the garbage can.

Bunsen: Quite impossible but very sweet.

Beaker: Meep.

Claudia: Everyone knows I went missing eh? But then again the adorable Nora probably heard my slams and smacks here and there. *looks sheepish*

Bunsen: Yes, we were pretty worried. Now...some people are still going to the pool even after the event. We should join our fellow dorm members.

Beaker: Meep.

Claudia: Go ahead. I'm bushed!

Bunsen: Alrighty!

Beaker: Meep.

*They step out of the room and to the pool*

Claudia: *Sighs* *Flops on bed* ._. phew.

[Katzi428]

Would recommend you get the chocolate-orange swirl, we've got flag cake in the fridge. You know, if you added vanilla to that, you'd get one of my fave flaves, which my tombmate happens to like as well, Transylvania Twist.
Rosita: Hey girls! I heard Ed say that he has chocolate-orange swirl ice cream.I'm going to get some.You want any?
I'll have some Rosita.Just make sure there's enough.
Rosita:OK.Prairie?
Prairie:I'll have the Transylvania Twist.That has vanilla added to it.
Rosita:Gotcha.See you in a few.she leaves.
Prairie...you all right?
Prairie:Just hot.I think that ice cream will hit the spot though
Gaffer walks inMeow?
Prairie:Oh Gaffer...you poor kitty!You must be so hot with all that fur!
Actually Prairie...Gaffer's fur keeps her cool in the summer & warm in the winter.
Prairie:Really?
Yep.She does need to be brushed though.
Gaffer looks wide eyed at me when she hears the word "brush"
Gaffer..you'll feel much better,honey.
Rositacoming in:sing: 3 ice cream coooonnneess!
Rosita..don't you dare pull that baker stunt!
Rosita:Me? Never! Here's your ice creams girls.

Prairie:Mmmm...thanks SO much Rosita! Boy,this is refreshing!
Sure is!Thanks Rosita!taking a lick of mine.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Uncle Deadly, what do you know about soups?
Uncle Deadly: Uh... you... eat them out of a soup bowl?
Ryan: Oh.
Uncle Deadly: Why do you ask?
Ryan: Because Ed and Claudia are threatening to make Prawn Soup if I don't write more.
Uncle Deadly: Ooh, really? Is it a potluck? I have some spook-tacular garnishes I could add! I must go find Eduardo!
Ryan: ...Oh good grief... *goes to write*

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: *Cackles all the way from her room* XD

OOC: I could not help myself. XD

[The Count]

*Opening door, tending to Uncle Deadly. *In deepest voice possible: You raaaang?
Count: Come in my fiend, let us count the vonderful garnishes for that delicious Cannaball Prawn soup. Kill-basas? Monster mashed potatoes? Blood sausages? Ah, that's 3, 3 terrific tantalizing dishes!

[BEAR]

Bry: (getting ready to go to bed but has noticed that Telly is missing) I wonder where Telly is at. Haven't seen him all day. (sees Hoots out the window) Hey, Hoots. Have you seen Telly?
Hoots: Not since last night before the fireworks. In fact...I didn't even see him during the fireworks.
Bry: I wonder where he could be...
Hoots: Ah wait. I think I found the furry guy right over there.
(Bryan goes outside to discover Telly sitting curled in a ball against the fence which closes off Big Bird's nest area)
Bry: Telly what are you doing out here?
Telly: (shaking) Taking cover.
Bry: Taking cover? What are you talking about?
Telly: The bombs. They're after us again!
Bry: What? Who's after us?
Telly: The bad guys.
Bry: Telly...those were just fireworks that Gonzo was shooting off last night. They're just for fun and pretty to look at. Don't you remember last year on Fourth of July? We had fireworks then too.
Telly: But they're just so loud and scary.
Bry: Oh, Telly. I know they are loud but they really aren't something you need to be afraid of. We really need to work on this with you. It's okay to be scared sometimes but it's a matter of how you handle your fears.
Telly: What should I do? You're a smart guy. Help me!

Bry: (sings)
When I'm so jittery my knees buckle,
Ice water tickles my spine,
I 'm trapped like a butterfly in a net
Then I say to myself:
I'm the bravest individual
I have ever met.
Telly:
I'm the bravest individual
I have ever met.
Bry:
This game makes very good sense
I get results
Telly:
Isn't that great!
Bry:
Get back my confidence
And then even pulse seventy-eight
So when I panic and feel each day
I come to the end of the line
Then I say that fear hasn't licked me yet
I keep telling myself
I'm the bravest individual
I have ever met
Telly:
Funny, but suddenly I can't swallow
I think I'm going to die
Sometimes, if you pardon the word, I sweat!
Bry:
Then you say to yourself,
"I'm the bravest individual
I have ever met."
Telly:
I'm the bravest individual
I have ever met
Bry:
Good!
Telly:
Your game makes very good sense
I get results
Bry:
Isn't that fine?
Telly:
Got back my confidence and then
Even pulse a hundred and nine
Bry:
So when you panic and think each day
You fail at whatever you try
Telly:
I just say that fear hasn't licked me yet!
Bry:
And keep telling yourself
Telly:
I'm the strongest, soundest stoical,
Daringest monster, most heroical
I'm the bravest individual
Both:
I have ever met!
(song ends)

Bry: So, Telly...how do you feel now?
Telly: Great. No, Bryan! Better than great! I feel...amazing! I'm not afraid anymore.
Bry: Oh, I'm so glad, Telly!
Telly: Thank you, Bryan. You're wise...very wise.
Bry: Eh, I do what I can.

[Gloat]

*after a couple of hours looking around the building, Adam, Boppity and Gloat appear by the pool*

Adam: You know what? That walk has really put me off swimming

Boppity: How come? It wasn't that bad

Adam: You almost killed me on a flight of stairs! *Grabs Boppity and chucks him in the deep end of the pool, then walks up behind Gloat* I don't know what you did, but oh well, you probably did something *throws him in with Boppity* Now that those two are busy i'll have to find myself a place to sit and look around while i'm at it, ive never been here

[Muppet Newsgirl]

(last night)

(group walks in, slurping up last little bits of ice cream - for Erin (MN), it's the chocolate-orange swirl, Nora's got the Transylvania Twist and Storyteller's got the radish crunch cake)

MN: Oh, man, that's good stuff.
Nora: Mmm, yes...ow, I've got an ice cream headache coming on.
Storyteller: (devouring last bit of cake) Are you sure it's the ice cream, and not your vision-related headaches?
MN: That's right, we're off to the eye doctor's tomorrow.

(today)

Storyteller: I do hope those two don't walk into any light poles on the way back here.
(door opens)
MN: (singing, wearing sunglasses) Fill my eyes...with that double vision...
Nora: I can't believe it. I'm going to look like the terror twins now.
MN: Now, there's worse things than that...like being photophobic for the next few hours.
Storyteller: Well, dear girls, how did it go?
MN: Nora needs glasses.
Storyteller: Oh, that's nice, very nice!
Nora: Nice? My little brother and sister wear them, too!
MN: In case you haven't noticed, both your roommates wear them as well. And Frank, and Dave...and I've seen Richard wearing them from time to time - wire rims look good on him.
Nora: I guess you're right.
Storyteller: And you, Erin? You're squinting quite a bit.
MN: My eyes are still feeling the effects of those medicated drops. I'll be all right eventually. (singing) I wear my sunglasses at night...

Zoot: Maddie, what are you doing?

Counting celing tiles, it's the only thing to keep me occupied. Great. I just lost count. Say, where are the others?

Zoot: At EB Games.

Well, why are they there?

*door opens, and Dr. Teeth, Janice and Lips come in. Dr. Teeth is holding something behind his back*

Guys, what is this about? What's that behind your back?

*Dr. Teeth reveals it to be a Wii*

No way! You managed to score a Wii?

Janice: Like, it was the second to last one there! We got rully lucky.

That's why your my friends. You guys are just so awesome!

(OOC: I did manage to score a Wii today. And it was also the second to last one there.:excited: )

[Fragglemuppet]

Man, did the dormhouse just get washed with a massive psunami of bordom juice? It's hot, it's sticky, and everyone here's just so...
fraggles: Booooring.
No, of course the people here aren't boring; it's just that...
fraggles: Booooring.
*glares mock daggers at the fraggles* Shhh!

Ryan: Gonzo... what are you doing?
Gonzo: *lights fuse* Decreasing boredom.
Ryan: What? Wait! How?
Gonzo: Adding another room.
Ryan: ...Beg pardon?
Gonzo: Well, okay, not adding another room, just... ditching yours.
Ryan: WHAT? Gonzo! Clifford's in there!
Clifford: *pokes head out of room* What?
Ryan: *grabs Clifford* *grabs Gonzo* *dives for cover*

[BEAR]

(Bert and Ernie appear outside Kate's window)
Bert: Well, if you need something fun to do, I've got some books here you can read. May I suggest this one? The Island of the Grey Pigeon. It's a classic! Eh-eh-eh-eh!
Ernie: Bert, you aren't getting it, are you?
Bert: Huh?
Ernie: Let's just go down to the pool, huh? (leaves)
Bert: Okay. (to Kate and Fraggles) I'll just leave this here with you incase you change your mind. (hands Kate the book)
Ernie: (calling) Beeert!
Bert: Coming! (leaves)

[The Count]

Bored? Hot? Got nothing to do tonight?
Then crank up the AC and tune in to another Muppet movie night.
Which one will we be playing in the common room? That's up to the whim of fate to decide. We'll be starting in a few minutes at 10 o'clock, so get some popcorn or peanuts and soda or whatever you want to drink... Pull up a chair or get comfy cozy in the sofas... And get ready to enjoy a fine film starring our feltened friends.

Beaker: *Twitch twitch* Meeemeeeeeee *Shakes*

Claudia: *Giggles* I think it's one of the roomies.

[The Count]

Uh Bert... You do realize Kate's room's up on the third floor don't you? So you'd probably have to be up on a ladder to appear outside her window. Either that, or crane your neck upwards and shout all the way up there. But would a Fraggle jump out and into yur arms? Or would you get another shark as a result of your vociferations...
*Chuckles and leaves to prep for the movie night.

Gonzo: *lights fuse* Decreasing boredom.

Gonzo: But hey, at least we're not bored anymore! Ha ha!


(after the explosion...)
Telly: What was that?
Big Bird: More fireworks?
Telly: But Fourth of July is over, isn't it?
Bry: That wasn't a firework, guys.
Telly: You mean...?
Bry: No, Telly. It wasn't that either. Atleast not exactly. Just relax. (Hears commotion of voices down the hall) I know exactly what it was. I'll handle this. (runs out the door to go twist Gonzo's nose in a knot)

Ernie: Khekhekhekhe!

Gonzo: Hey! ...Thanks! Ha ha! And I, personally, think we could use another hole over there. *points*

OOC: I CANNOT TYPE TODAY *Falls on knees and does a cheesy scream*

New W ladder? Oh well, an X ladder would've been sturdier.

OK Count, pop the DVD into the machine and let's get this show started.
*The Muppets Take Manhattan starts rolling, cause I know how much Prawny and his half love the opening song, and it's in honor of Cath's great fanfiction stories.

[BEAR]

Bry: Wow, Gonzo. I realize that there is a certain amount of mayhem and zaniness that go on around these parts, but I might have to ask you to stay clear of my room.
Telly: (peaks in) Unless it involves lemon pudding. That was fun!

[The Count]

*Zany shows up, holding a cue card that reads "Laughter".

New W ladder? Oh well, an X ladder would've been sturdier.

*The Muppets Take Manhattan starts rolling, cause I know how much Prawny and his half love the opening song, and it's in honor of Cath's great fanfiction stories.

Ernie: Oh, it's sturdy alright, Ed. But only turned upside down. Then again, that would also make it an M ladder. Oh, us and our alphabet word play! Khekhekhe!
Bry: Oh, us and our 2 different scenes going on at once!
Big Bird: So much for the bordem!

[theprawncracker]

Gonzo: See, Ryan? The penguins liked it!
Ryan: *loads penguin into cannon and shoots him out hole* *glares at Gonzo* Alright hook-nose, you're next.
Gonzo: Neat!
Ryan: *grabs Gonzo by shirt collar* Listen here weirdo, either you fix my room, or you'll be living in a padded cell!
Gonzo: You mean the towel closet?
Ryan: ...*falls over*

[The Count]

Eh... Beats living in a bus depot locker.

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: Gonzo, he means he will send your butt to Mars.

Bunsen: Oooo...send me as well!

Beaker: *Blinks at Bunsen's comment* Meee? *Looks to Ryan and shakes head*

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *sighs* Bry, do you still have Biff and Sully's number?

[BeakerSqueedom]

*They take their leave for movie night*

Bunsen: Hmm, Ed will have company!

Claudia: Yes, I am ashamed I have not been able to attend the drawing at all. Perhaps you could brainwash him with that invention of yours?

Bunsen: Claudia, you must be more responsible!

Beaker: *Waves to Ed* Meep.

Claudia: X3 MMOVIEMOVIEMOVIE!

[The Count]

*Waves hi back at Beaker and his friends. Hey Claudia, no worries, I'm no stranger to procrastination myself. When you can get it done, it's OK.
For now, just sit down and enjoy the movie. Ooh, it's starting, there comes Kermit whistling that tune Lisa loves so.

[BeakerSqueedom]

*Giggle*

Bunsen: That movie was interesting. I prefer Muppets from Space.

Beaker: Meemee.

Fozzie: Are there any more blondies left?
(Piggy looks up from her perch in one of the lime-green tween armchairs.)
Piggy: I trust vous were NOT speaking about me?
Fozzie: What? No! NO! I was talking about the brownies. THe non-brown brownies, that are blonde. (desperately) Um, Catherine calls them blondies.
Piggy: (mildly) Bring me one, won't you?
Fozzie: Yes ma'am. Will do once I find them....

[BeakerSqueedom]

YAY FOR RU! XD

Bunsen: *Looks through a microscope* This is most disturbing yet exhilerating!

Claudia: What?

Bunsen: I am examining my hand and it turns out that every living organisim has a parasite. Billions living on our skin without notice. They dwell on the hair of your arms and even beneath your skin. Thay've been known to live in your stomach as well. Their physical appearance is repulsive--just like any strange insect you've encountered in this very lifetime. The feed on your dead skin cells or (depending) feed on the food you eat which causes you to eat more.

Claudia: *Eating* ....Oh my gosh! EW! EW! *Rushes to take her second shower of the day*

Bunsen: To your misfortune, they are not easily removed! You must take a colon cleanser to remove them from your stomach and avoid sweets as they pretty much live upon that!

Claudia: SHUT UP BUNSEN!

Bunsen: Hmph, how rude.

Beaker: *touching stomach and face* Meeemeeemeeee! *Panic*

Bunsen: *Looks sly and peeks into his microscope once more* Did you know we have baby eggs floating about in our bloodstream and into the arteries? *Jokes*

Beaker: MEEEMEEEMEEEE! *Runs to see a doctor*

Bunsen: Tsstsst *Chuckles*

[Erine81981]

Ryan: *grabs phone from Kyle* Kyle? KYLE? Quick! I need you to call Biff and Sully! Tell them I need my room salvaged from the pile of... of... room below!
*on the phone* Uh sorry Ryan that is not me. That's my robot that Bunsan made while i would be away. So your taking the phone away from my robot. I'm still at home with Grover, Herry, Murray, Maurice and Oscar. Understand now? Here is the number to Biff and Sully. 555-7890. Now i'll call Bryan and see what he's up too. *hangs up phone and diels Bryan's phone*

Bunsen: I think that robotic imitation of Kyle was quite a success! Hopefully nothing goes wrong...

Claudia: What do you mean Bunnie?

Bunsen: Bunnie means he feels a bit insecure. I think I installed the red wire with the blue wire...

Claudia: SO IT MIGHT EXPLODE?

Bunsen: No, probably shut down and then explode

Beaker: *Shakes head* Meeemeee!

Claudia: Oh you checked it at the last minute and fixed it?

Beaker: Mee.

Bunsen: Oh thank goodness! We would not want poor Kyle to suffer third degree burns and experiencing a bad hair day. In other words pull a Beaker.

Beaker: MEE!

Claudia: You should check on Kyle Bunsen...

--
*Is in front of Kyles door*

Bunsen: Alrighty! *knocks* Mr. Kyle? I hope you are not too busy. Oh wait--he's not here! Silly me! *Goes back to his room*

Claudia: That was airheadish of us. XD

Bunsen: Indeed, I still can't help but feel a bit of fear for his room. XD

Beaker: Mee?

Bunsen: Yes, I think I am just paranoid.

Claudia: *Shakes head* Oh Bunnie. *Rolls eyes*

Bunsen: Hmph.

[BEAR]

Bry: (on phone with Kyle) Hey, Kyle. Not too much. Ryan's room got destroyed again. I've been busy with work this week and then there was that great Fourth of July celebration. What have you been doing? We miss you. Telly misses you and the Monsters. When you coming back!

[theprawncracker]

Camilla: Brawk! Bagawk byuck bawk brawk bagawk!
Ryan: I know, I know, the noise from the construction team is bothering me too.
Camilla: Bawk brawk bagawk!
Ryan: Don't squawk at me! It's your boyfriend's fault, not mine!
Camilla: Brawk bawk!
Ryan: Gah...*goes to find something to eat*

[BEAR]

Big Bird: what's all that noise?
Telly: what!
Bry: biff and sully! they're fixing Ryan's room back up!
Telly: what!
Bry: c'mon! Let's get some dinner!
Telly: what!

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: *Bawling*

Bunsen: *Gives her milk and cookies* Yes yes, stop crying over your boredom for Mr. Al Gore's boring unrealistic theory of Global Warming on the Live Earth show. If you'd like I could explain mine!

Claudia: It's not that! ;__; *Sniffles and drinks the milk*

Bunsen: What is it then? *Looks concerned*

Claudia: I WANNA SEE MICHAEL JACKSON ON THE SHOW! Not talentless singing big hot shots!

Bunsen: You're starting to sound quite like Simon Cowell. Do get ahold of yourself.

Beaker: *Sits next to her* Meee?

Claudia: Well yah..Alicia was good...but some of them stunk!

Bunsen: Just eat the cookies. >_o

Claudia: *Sniffles* *Munch munch* Ok Bunnie. ;_;

[Gloat]

Gloat: What ya think of the concert?

Adam: I didn't watch it, and i didnt watch it because whenever they have these massive lives shows they never play anything i'm intersted in

Gloat: Well surely you liked at least one of the performers

Adam: nope, they need to get a bigger variety of music up there

Boppity: What artists?

Adam: I dunno, like Kula Shaker, that would be different

Gloat: Who else?

Adam: Fish

Boppity: Isn't he Scottish

Adam: Yeh, whats your point?

Boppity: nothin

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: *Scrubbing the bathroom floors*

Bunsen: Need assistance?

Claudia: *Growls* *Hair messed up*

Beaker: *Hides behind Bunsen* Meemee

Bunsen: I forget how she gets when she is cleaning the bathroom.

Claudia: Hate...cleaning..but..compulsive cleaning...can't stop. *Twitch*

Bunsen: Um..toodle-loo! *Chuckles nervously* *Leaves with Beaker*

Beaker: MEE! *Feels his ankle being gripped on*

Claudia: Help me clean please. *Glare*

Beaker: *Nods quickly out of fear* ME!

Claudia: You too Bunsen.

Bunsen: *Snaps fingers* Oh poo.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *lays out lower bunk* Ahh... man, that Biff and Sully really do a gangbuster job.
Clifford: *stretches on upper bunk* Yeah man, it's great, room looks even better than it did before.
Ryan: Yup... and we don't even have to worry about Gonzo anymore.
Clifford: ...Why not?
Ryan: *ahem* He's being handled... by top men.
Clifford: *brief silence* Who?
Ryan: Top. Men.

*cut to tied-up Gonzo being dragged away by Sweetums and Uncle Deadly*

Sweetums: Where're we takin' 'im?
Uncle Deadly: I have no idea.

[Beakerfan]

Floyd: *comes running* Alex! Are you ok? *helps her up*
I am sooo exhausted Floyd! I'm not sure I can even make it back to our room! I have been so busy with the wedding, and I went to Discovery Kingdom today.... ugh. I need to ge-zzzzzzzzz *falls asleep*
Animal: *comes running* AL-EX!
Floyd: shhhh..... help me with her!
Pepe: Oh jou guys may need some help hokay!
Floyd: She's not that heavy. I think we can handle it. We just need to get her on the couch over there.
Pepe: But I want to help hokay!
Animal: qui-et!
Floyd: Ok, if you really want to help, here, help support her middle. Animal, grab her feet.
Animal: OK.
*they all pick Alex up*
Floyd: Ok guys! right over there... careful... careful... don't drop her.... careful Animal...right over here.... ok, now lift her up and set her down gently...
Animal: *raises Alex's legs then drops them back on the floor*
Floyd: No no Animal! Not like that! *drops Alex's arms* Don't wake her! Put her on the couch!
Pepe: *gets squished*

[The Count]

*Doing a few midnight checks on the residents... Finds Gonzo tied up and under guard in the basement office. What the... Oh well, so long as Uncle D's got everything under claw...
*Moves on and feels he should check the lobby. *Finds Alex snoozing on the lobby couch and hears a bit of muffled protestation, though not so loud that it wakes her up.
Hmmm... Lemme see... *Checks out the scene and fishes Pepe out from under the sleeping lady.
Come on now, we don't want to have squashed prawns, it's better to have prawns with squahsh. And after last time, bruised prawn left a bad taste in your mouth too.
*Lets Pepe scurry off to Floyd and Animal, before covering Alex with a spare blanket.

MC Dorms were brought to you by the letter M for moon and midnight, and by the number 3.

[The Count]

Well... Can't put it off any longer... Hey Count, I'm headed to the bat-room to shower and dress up, will be spending the afternoon at the campuss library taking care of that bothersome chore.
Count, to self: About time. Wery well...
Oh, and tell Prairie and Rosita Bryan'll be looking after them for the week until Kathy feels better.
Count: Check. Vhat about Gaffer?
She's a tough kitty, she'll either pop up at Bryan's or want to play with Fatatita.
Count: Ah... OK. Good luck vith everything.
Thanks... I'll need it.
*Trudges off to get washed down and dressed up before leaving the dorms.

[Gloat]

*Adam brings in acoustic guitar*

Boppity: you play music?

Adam: *sarcastic voice* nah, i'm unplugging the sink with a guitar

Gloat: Better get to it then

Adam: *Slaps Gloat with Shoe Horn*

Gloat: Hey, stop that!

Adam: no

[BEAR]

Bry: Early work day at Hooper's. I wonder if the guys got the message that Prairie Dawn and Rosita will be staying with us until Kathy recovers from her illness. She's been sick.
AM man: Where are my eggs!
Bry: right with you, sir!

[theprawncracker]

Rizzo: Hey, Ryan?
Ryan: *writing* Yeah, what is it, Rizzo?
Rizzo: Can we let Gonzo back in?
Ryan: *sigh* I guess, but tell him no explosives in the dorm room.
Rizzo: Gotcha.
Uncle Deadly: *swoops in* Ah, writing more of Men Are Pigs, I see?
Ryan: No, actually.
Uncle Deadly: *head tilt* Then what on Earth are you writing?
Ryan: A short story.
Uncle Deadly: About... us?
Ryan: Nope.
Uncle Deadly: About what, then?
Ryan: I'm not sure yet. But I'm writing it for my Honors English summer homework.
Uncle Deadly: Oh.
Ryan: Yup.
Uncle Deadly: Homework, you say?
Ryan: Mmhm. Devious, no?
Uncle Deadly: Quite.

[The Count]

*Back home and changed into casual clothes...

Count: Everything go OK?
No... Stupid new computer wouldn't let me do a thing, and the man who's in charge of the computer equipment never showed up. Gonna have to take care of it tomorrow. But at least now I'm home...
Count: You have a lot of posts to get to.
Yeah, I know. And Bo's probably already at 16K by now, pushing me back down to the lower 700's again. Oh well, gotta get to it all. And hopefully a couple of haunters too.
Count: Oh! That'd be great if you could get to it, but no vorries if you don't.
Thanks buddy. Know how much you're rooting for me to get that finally moving, just like how Uncle D's always prodding Ryan for more story.
Count: Yes... Do you plan to talk to them this time around?
Could do that... Not sure though, they seem to get along together, and Uncle D's the best warden Ryan has to get more story out of him until they're finished... So let's just see what happens.
Count: Good. LMK vhen you wish to have dinner and ve'll order it fright up.
OK... *Goes to start checking the backlog of posts.

[Beauregard]

Bo: *stretches, and emerges, blinking, into the light of the hallway* I swear I haven't left that room in a hundred years.
Bobo: I swear I have't eaten in a hundred years.
Bean: I SWEAR! Wait...no...
Beau: My mummy said never to swear...

Bo: Look...guys...I have to tell you something, my semester here in the Muppet Dorms is coming to an end.
Bobo: Look...huh?
Beau: Are you going to go bye-byes?
Bean: FREEDOM!

Bo: Ed, I'm checking out of the Dorms. If anyone wants to take on my roommates, and will take good care of them, they may feel free. Or they can joined the database of free roommates until such a time as I return to MBH. I've enjoyed my stay! Thanks for everything!

[The Count]

Hey Bo... You sure man? If that's your decision, I'll respect it. But you know in spite of my disgruntlement, you're always welcome here at the dorms. Hope everything's OK across the pond and take care pal.

[tvlistingman]

PETER:Man it is hot, and what should we do

ZOE: Why don't we go swimming in the Dorms' Outdoor Swimming Pool

BABY BEAR: And why don't we get a snack at Everybody Eats then watch a Little Tv

LITTLE BIRD: Sounds Good

PETER: I'm thinking of what should we be doing tomorrow?

[BEAR]

Bert: Ernie, I'm going to the store. Do you have that shopping list for me?
Ernie: Right here, Bert. (hands Bert a piece of paper with writing)
Bert: Thank you. Bye! (heads out to the market)
Bry: (coming in almost running into Bert) Oh! Hi, Bert. Hey, guys! I'm home.
Big Bird: Hi, Bryan! And look who's here. Rosita and Prairie Dawn!
Prairie: Hello there.
Rosita: Hola! We've come to stay with you while poor Kathy is sick.
Bry: I know. Welcome. Just make yourself at home as usual. Ernie, any messages while I was gone?
Ernie: Ed called.
Bry: He did?
Ernie: Yep.
Bry: What did he want?
Ernie: I forget. I wrote it down somewhere. (scratching his head)
Bry: Eh, don't worry about it. I think I know what he was calling about. I'll get back to him a bit later tonight. Right now, I need a short nap and then dinner. Does Everybody Eats sound good to you all?
Rosita: I love that place!
Big Bird: Me too!
Bry: Great! We'll go in an hour or so.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: 'Tis a sad day... dear Beau hath moved out of the Dorms...
Gonzo: Then can I go blow up his room?
Ryan: Normally... yes. But fortunately, you're anything but normal.
Gonzo: Drat!

[The Count]

Well... One good thing out of Bo's moving away, though I hate to have it happen...
Bobo's now stationed at the lobby's desk in lue of Pops, as he'll take over security duties for the dorms.
And Beau will still be employed as dorm janitor... Though I think he's got a few other places to tidy up as well.
As for Bean, well, he skipped off back to his family's hutch near the church.
Count: Vhat church?
Oh surely you've heard of it...

Both: The hutchback of Notre Dame.

[Muppet Newsgirl]

(chorus of groans)

Nora: Is it true that Bo's moving out?
Storyteller: It's what I heard, yes. His roommates are being reassigned.
Nora: We can't take Bean in, I'm sorry.
MN: Too right. (pause) Come on, Nora, let's see your new glasses.
Nora: (sighs, and puts glasses on)
Storyteller: Oh, they're perfect on you. They look like Scooter and Skeeter's glasses.
Nora: Yeah, but it feels weird just having them on my face.
MN: You get used to it. I've worn glasses for thirteen years.
Storyteller: Too true...now, what's on tomorrow?
MN: I'm on assignment for the paper.
Nora: File sorting down at the shop.
Storyteller: I'm working on a new legend of the Merggles.

[The Count]

Well... At least Bean's feet brought him some luck.
Count: Oh? How so.
Well... Though he needed new shoes, they were so low-maintenance they cost him only a penny.
Count: 1 cen for 2 shoes? Vhat kind of shoes vere they?
What else... Penny loafers.
Count: Boo... That's a bad joke.
Yes, but his shoes have passed on to a better place.
Count: You don't mean...
Yes, the shoe store.
Count: And here I thought they died.
They did... Of shoe poisoning.
Count: Vhat? The shoes vere poisoned? Vhat did they die of?
Arsenic and old lace.
Count: Boo, that's an old joke.
Well, those were old shoes.

[Beauregard]

Hey, Count, I am serious about moving out. But it's got nothing to do with our age old dissgruntlement, just that I've never really been able to keep up with the Dorms and only get to post here about once a month or something, so it seems odd to stay here as a resident. I'll be sure to still pop in from time to time as a guest at parties, if I may though?

[TogetherAgain]

Lisa: <runs around the dorm room like a crazy woman> <...Oh, all right, IS a crazy woman, but that's beside the point>
Robin: <follows Lisa around>
Rowlf: Hey- what's the rush about?
Lisa: Pardon?
Rowlf: One, since when are you awake this early?
Lisa: ...Um... Since I can't sleep?
Rowlf: Oh.
Lisa: <still running around> Was there a two?
Rowlf: Yup. What are you running around for?
Lisa: Something's come up!
Robin: And I'm helping!
Rowlf: What came up?
Robin: I don't know. She hasn't told me.
Lisa: CHEF! I need wood! Hammer! Nails!
Chef: <loading things into Lisa's arms> Yabber hammedie bang bang de knock un de knock knock un nay de nay de nay.
Lisa: <examines items> Chef, I meant nails for WOOD, not finger nails!
Rowlf: Here. <Pulls a box of nails out of nowhere>
Lisa: Thanks! Where'd those come from?
Rowlf: Don't ask.
Lisa: And don't look down.
Rowlf: Beg pardon?
Lisa: Nevermind. Robin, you with me?
Robin: Yup!
Lisa: Good. Follow me! <runs downstairs to Bo's room and nails the door shut with Bo, Beau, Bobo, and Bean inside> HA! They'll NEVER leave dorms now! <Shifty eyes> C'mon, Robin. <runs back upstairs>
Robin: ...Gee... Wonder what she needed me to come with for. <Hops off after Lisa>

[Beauregard]

Bo: *locked in room* This would be so much better if Bean could fit out of the window...
Bean: *bounces off the walls* We are prisoners, together, forever! We'll die here, starved, but happy! Holding hands!
Bobo: I bet 'cha I could break that door down with my bare hands...
Beau: Bear hands?
Bo: No...oh, wait, yes. Weren't we leaving?

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *chases after Lisa* Hey, slow down there Camille! ...I want in on this too!
Gonzo: Me too!
Ryan: So, what's the plan, Stan?

[TogetherAgain]

Lisa: <looks around> Stan? Who's Stan?
Robin: I think he was rhyming.
Lisa: Stan was rhyming?
Robin: With plan.
Lisa: Huh. Anyway. Hi Prawnie! Hi Gonzo.

[Beauregard]

Beau: *ear against door* Who's Stan?
Bobo: Stan back, the door's coming down. *runs towards door*
Bean: *bounces into Bobo's way* I love you! Don't leave us!
Bobo: *trips and lands in a rolling heap*
Bo: *leaving against wall* This is why we turn off television?

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Hi Lisa! Hi Robin!
Gonzo: Shouldn't we get on with this?
Ryan: Ask her. She's the brains of this outfit.
Gonzo: Are you sure? Because no one with brains would wear that outfit.
Ryan: *blink*
Gonzo: Sorry...

[Leyla]

Leyla <sporting camoflage, a Canada, eh? hat and a bucket of tar> : C'mon! Move it, move it, move it!

Hilda: This is the craziest-

Leyla: Never say never! Or craziest! There's always room for crazier! It's the Jello (TM) of mental states! Now move!

Wanda: But where are we going with all this-

Leyla: Beau... er... Bo... er... BoBo... Bean... Oh, I DON'T KNOW! Them guys are trying to move out, and Toga's trying to keep them here! It's anarachy! WHEEE! And we must join in the cause!

Jimmy: <holding feathers> <utter reasonable> Now, ah'm no diplomat er nothin', but it seems ta me, that y'can't really keep them here. They have a right ta make ther own decisions, and really, we should be out there, sapportin' them.

Leyla: <stares at him> They've GOTTEN TO YOU! 50 lashes, and then you WALK the PLANK! Later.... for now... you got the feathers, Piggy?

Robot PIggy: <sniffle> My boas... my beautiful boas.

Robot Kermit: There there. I'll get you something nice when Leyle becomes sane again, honey.

Hilda: What are we doing with the tar and feathers anyway?

Leyla: We're going to seal them in to the room! Keeping them here forever! Whahahaha!

Hilda: Won't that kill them?

Leyla: Uh... no! Because uh...

Hilda: And what about the feathers?

Leyla: You can't have tar without feathers! I... think. Let's move!

[Beauregard]

Bobo: Do we have an icepack lying around here, someplace, mebbe?
Bean: I'll get one! *runs to the kitchen and starts chipping ice out of the freezer*
Bo: ... Here, I'll find something...
Beau: Something? Or Something? Is there a difference?

Bo: Maybe we could just use the phone, and call someone from the front desk to come down here and let us out?
Bobo: Oh...now there's an idea, there.
Bean: Sorry, I used the phone to chip off this ice! *holds up reciever*
Beau: You know you should use a tv remote for chipping ice...

[TogetherAgain]

Lisa: Don't go offending my brain count, Gonzo, I've got three minds, remember? <Looks at Prawnie> <Looks at Gonzo> Three and a half minds, beg pardon.
Robin: How do you have half a mind?
Lisa: The better question is, how DON'T YOU have half a mind?
Robin: Huh?
Lisa: Nevermind the mind thing.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *rolls eyes* *sees Layla and friends* *blinks* *decides not to say anything*
Gonzo: Hey! Look! There's Layla and friends!
Ryan: ...Yeesh...

[Beauregard]

Bo: *knocks on the door from inside* Prawnie? Is that you? Would you let us out?
Bobo: *knocks on the floor* Maybe there's some kind of passage or...
Bean: *leaps on Bo's shoulder and knocks on his head* Hel-lo, we are going to die here!
Beau: *knocks on wood* *shrugs* It helps.

[TogetherAgain]

Robin: <head pressed against door> Ryan, he wants you to let them out!
Lisa: Don't. Oh, hi Leyla! Hi Hilda! Hi- Jimmy. <hides behind Prawnie>

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *to Bo's door* Argh! Avast ye lilly livered scoundrel! Aye, it be me, but there be no way I'll let ye out of yer prison! Argh!
Gonzo: What are you doing?
Ryan: Adding pop culture references.
Gonzo: Oh.
Ryan: Argh!

[Beauregard]

Bo: Tyical...we're trapped by pirates. What is this, the most complicated sit-com on earth?
Bobo: I could check the tv guide?
Beau: We used it for defroasting the freezer...
Bo: Why are you doing that again?

[Leyla]

Leyla: Look! Oh, everyone's here to help! <sniffle> It does my warrior's heart proud!

Hilda: You're an elementary school teach-

Leyla: My cold mein and muscular form quiver at the sight of such a touching-

Jimmy: She's been a little high strung, lately, ain't she?

Leyla: Seal them in! They must not be allowed to escape! We will keep them, or kill them trying! Bwahahahaha!

Hilda: But you LIKE them-

Leyla: Meaningless words and hesitations! I'll have no cowards in my unit, soldier! Bring on the fluffy purple feathers! Tar up the door!

Robot Kermit: They're gonna have a hard time getting the deposit back after this.

[TogetherAgain]

Robin: <looks around> ...Sometimes, I wish I could blink...
Lisa: <hiding from Jimmy behind Prawnie> <whispers> Brig. I think pirates call prisons brigs.
Robin: <looks around> <shakes head>
Lisa: <Gasp> Prawnie! The hole! The hole to Christy's room! He could get out through there! WE'VE GOTTA FIX THAT HOLE!

[Beauregard]

Bo: You know we never did fix that hole to Christy's room...
Bobo: Oh, oh, I know! It just has that sofa in front of it.
Bo: ...You knew that?
Bobo: Oh, yes sir, I just didn't want to mention it.

Beau: *aims hairdryer at freezer*
Bean: Great! Now we can build a boat and float out!

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *gasp!* Argh! Gonzo! Get ye to that hole! Fix it shut!
Gonzo: Aye, aye Cap'n Prawn! *darts off into Christy's room* *shields eyes at Skeeter coming out of the shower* Sorry about this! *uses Christy's bed to plug hole* There, all done.
Meanwhile...
Ryan: Argh, and Robin, m'lad? Try nictitating membranes, they can change yer life. Argh.

[Leyla]

Leyla: Lieutenant Jimmy, we have a situation! There's a hole... there's a hole... there's a hole in the bottom of the se- I mean... there's a hold that needs patching! Now, I need you to go fetch a few more planks... Jimmy.

Jimmy: <to Lisa> Hi there, sweet thing. I see ya over there. Listen, if you ain't busy er nothin'-

Leyla: JIMMY! OVER HERE, PRONTO!

[Beauregard]

Bo: Quick, move the sofa, move the...
Bobo: *lifts sofa* Uuch...where'd cha want it?
Bo: Anywhere Bean is.
Bean: *leaps in front of the hole to Christy's room* We cannot leave! We must stick together!
Bobo: *drops sofa on Bean, in front of hole*
Bo: We need another exit...
Beau: *still chipping at freezer*

[TogetherAgain]

Robin: ...<stares at Prawnie>... Argh?
Lisa: <steps out from behind Prawnie> <slaps Jimmy> Get to work! Do as you're told! Quit yer lollygaggin! <Mutters> Lilly-livered scoundrel... Where's my Cap'n Jack Sparrow voice when I need it?

[The Count]

All of youz back to your rooms. That's an order!
Bo, just use the hole between your room and Christy's to get out, she's not there at the moment so it's safe to crawl through.
Not sure if you could come to dorm parties though. You'd be welcome here of course... But I'm trying to keep the dorms thread for only the people who are registered as residents to post in, thereby avoiding any outside parties coming here, either asking about the dorms or causing nonsensical vandalism with their idiotic graffiti.

Hope you can understand... It'll be explained better when the rules are reposted at the anniversary. In any case, we all thank you for being a resident here at the dorms.
Now give him a farewell salute.
*Penguin cannons fire off sixteen times in honor of Bo.

[Beauregard]

Bo: *slides out beside ths sofa, into Christy's room, and out the door*
Beau: *keeps chipping, then turns around to find everyone gone* Ooh...another ice age?
Bobo: *squeazes out of the room with Bo* It was nice knowig you buddy. *slaps Bo on the back, throwing him accidently out the door*
Bo: *lands in a taxi-cab* Perfect...
Bean: *turns around from the driver's position* Where to, sir!

[Gloat]

Adam: *walking through the college doors with a massive heavy box, its so heavy he drops it after a few steps, panting*

Gloat: *walks up behind* Sure you dont want help?

Adam: you wont be able to lift this, its far to heavy, and your even shorter than me

Gloat: Why dont I get Boppity?

Adam: He said he was having a bubble bath, but knowing him he's ended up lost and is now on the roof of the building, you should be hearing something falling down the air vents in a minute

Gloat: Oh

Adam: So now i need to somehow get this to my room *tries to lift it and walks a few more steps before dropping it again*

Gloat: Why not hire a forklift?

Adam: no

*Sounds of something falling down a metal vent in the wall*

Adam: Oh, there he is

[Erine81981]

*kicks at the door* OW!

Herry: No no Kyle. This is how to do it. *kicks door to the dorms which flies off* And that's how you do it.

Whoa.

We all step inside

Grover: Helloo everybodieeeeeee!

Murray: We are back in service.

A trashcan with furry green legs walk in, "Where are we?"

Maurice: We are back at the dorms.

Oscar: *pops out* What? We're not at Kyle's anymore?

Nope. We are back here.

Oscar: Why? I was really enjoying myself....uh i mean i hated it out there. Oh well. *trashlid slams*

Ok guys. To our room!

Grover: That is only a few feet away, Kyle.

I know.

We all head to our room to finally get settled in

Pepe: Whow. She is loco, no? Jou think she is hon something hokay?
Floyd: *snorts* NO! *continues watching Alex run amok* She seems a little frenzied though. Probably because of her brother's wedding. THAT is why I stay away from stuff like that! Hey Alex! What's up with your hair?

Animal: STOOOPPP! *grabs Alex and makes her hold still*
*twitching slightly*
Pepe: Nhow what?
Floyd: I don't know. Lately it seems we're taking care of her more that she's taking care of us, and none of us really know what we're doing! Animal, why don't you just have her sit down for now. But don't let her get up!
Animal: *sits on top of Alex*
