Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

[WhiteRabbit]

No! She already mine! *Snuggling Claudia tightly. Poligamy? What that?

Ailie: Pfft...find somebody your own age and with the same evilness--like Martha Stewart! XP OH, BURN! *steals Claudia back*

[Winslow Leach]

Zoot: Tony, how could you? ! </3 *sobs and runs to the bathroom*

Dr. Teeth: O_o

(starts to chase after Zoot)

Tony: No Zoot, I didn't mean to....I mean....(stops)...zuh? What the h-e-double hockey sticks am I doing?

(dashes to his room, and slams the door)

[AnimatedC9000]

Zoot: Tony, how could you? ! </3 *sobs and runs to the bathroom*

Dr. Teeth: O_o

Caitlyn: *has been ignored* -_- *knocks on the bathroom door* Zoot? Honey, are you okay?

[The Count]

Meh... Stick to tickling the keyboardist's ivories. *Presses button ejecting Ailie, while Clauds is still in his death-glomp grip.

[WhiteRabbit]

Dr. Teeth: ...Fun. =)

Ailie: *blush* O_O ED!

Zoot: MEH! X_X

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Zoot, it's me. Wanna let me in and we can talk about it?

[The Count]

Huh? *Is snapped to senses... What got into meep? *Returns everything back to normal. Though Squeedom does look smexy in that hood over her head and...

*Is distracted from thoughts by the sudden appearance of Autumn. O-O! Ma baby doll!

*Hypnotizedly follows while roomies set Claudia free begging her to post fic update before Ed gets maniacally upset like this again.

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: ...-_- Nah. *falls asleep*

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: 0_0 *Gasping* Grip too tight, must...breathe....must...0_-...Ok, ok, ok!
I will post! I...I will....I...I wil *Sobs* ;_; AHAHAHAHA....AAAAAAAHAHAHAH.....;_; *Cries*

Dr. Van Neuter: Claudia, stop it...you're humiliating yourself. x)

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *somehow manages to open the door* *hugs Zoot* I'm here for you, babe.

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *wakes up* But still...you're not Tony... ;_;

Ailie: XP Zoot, go to bed.

[The Count]

*Count and UD: *Hugging Claudia. It'll be okay. Just please, do it for him... He might go crazy, erm, crazier if he doesn't get his fic fix. Especially from one who is such a big source of smileyness to him as you are.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Maybe I could... fill in the void? *kisses Zoot* <3

[Erine81981]

Herry: Hey Kyle!

*come running into the living area* What is it?

Herry: Lookie here. That weirdo, freak and that cook all have youtube accounts.

They do? I would have never known Gonzo, Beaker and Swedish Chef to have one. *watches some of the videos* Wow! Those are some funny home movies. Don't you think Herry?

Herry: Well i guess. I just thought you would get a kick out of it.

Thanks Herry. I'm going back into my room. Good Night....again.

Herry: Good night. *keeps watching more old Sesame Street clips* It's me back in the 70's. Wow, have i changed.

[Muppet Newsgirl]

(gang is gearing up for a party in room 7)

Beige: Jar of Insta-Gro pills...check.
Storyteller: One laundry tub with ten pairs of Fraggle socks...check.
Nora: One book of postcards from Traveling Matt...check.
Erin: One set of half-eaten tires...check.
Scooter: And one catapult...check.

(Happy birthday, Dave Goelz!)

[Muppet Newsgirl]

(Ed: check your e-mail; I've sent along my interpretation of the heinous hippo.)

Beige: Wait, isn't a hippo that big blubbery creature that lolls around in water?
Storyteller: Don't call them blubbery; they're awfully sensitive.
Erin: Hippo's the Greek word for horse...so a hippopotamus would be a "water horse."
Scooter: Wonder how you'd say in Greek, "A horse is a horse, of course, of course?"
Nora: (walking in, carrying a newspaper) And how would you say, "horsefeathers?"
Beige: Wait, horses don't have feathers.
Erin: Unless they're Pegasus, or Night Mare. What're you reading?
Nora: A report from Russia. About the Romanov children.
Storyteller: Oh, dear, that's right...is it true that they found...
Scooter: What happened?
Erin: Well, according to new DNA testing, Anastasia and her family didn't make it out of the Russian Revolution.
Nora: No...but here they're saying the missing girl was Maria. (tosses paper aside) Then again, the scientists never agreed on which girl was missing from the others.
Beige: Oh, well...at least the family's back together in St. Petersburg, sort of.
Storyteller: It is sad...I mean, maybe their father wasn't the most adept ruler, but they were all such nice kids.
Erin: Well, maybe Anastasia's since become some little girl's guardian angel.
Scooter: Or maybe she's on the bill at some comedy club up in heaven.

[Winslow Leach]

Newsie: Tommy, you didn't happen to catch the news tonight, did you?

Tony: Which one? The one you anchor?

Newsie: I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

Tony: What happened?

Newsie: I was doing a report on man-eating creamed corn and--

Tony: Lemme guess. A giant mound of man-eating creamed corn invaded the studio and ate you, right? It must have spit you back out, because you're standing right in front of me. Unless you're a g-g-g-g-host!

Newsie: WRONG! A giant mound of man-eating creamed corn didn't eat me...it was a giant mound of man-eating oatmeal, so there! And it was plain-flavored! Yeeech! But you're right. It did spit me out. Eventually.

Tony: I don't understand about the oatmeal...

Newsie: Apparently it was jealous that I was wasting air time reporting on the outbreak of man-eating creamed corn, and decided to teach me a lesson.

Tony: Makes perfect sense.

Lefty bursts into the room, screaming, his coat on fire.

Tony: Now that, on the other hand...

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *ejects "The Muppet Movie" from the DVD payer* Well, guys, how was that day of watching Muppet movies?

Marvin: It hardly had me in it!

Lips: I wasn't in any of the ones that we saw either, Marvin, but I'm not complaining.

Caitlyn: *sighs* *plops down onto her bed* Two more days. All of tomorrow and then Saturday morning I'm heading to camp.

Lips: But... I don't want you... to leave...

Caitlyn: I don't either, but my parents have had this planned for a while now, and I can't go back on it. Besides, Mom wants me to go to "interact" with other people, and "talk about the world in today" and not about "The Muppets are a thing of the past", and to make "friends" that I can stay with--she even bought me an address book-- and hang out with, and to talk about "what normal girls would talk about", and--

Lips: You're making it sound like it's a bad thing.

Caitlyn: But here's the thing-- my parents don't exactly understand me. Even when I talk at gatherings, it's about stuff that I like, and they tell me to not talk about them. That's why I'm usually quiet in public. ... although I'm strangely vocal on the Internet. *shrugs* Go figure, the people that really understand me and want to talk to me live nowhere near me in real life.

Lips: *nods* Tough.

Marvin: But you should make some new friendss-- and get an actual life!

Lips: Marvin!

Caitlyn: ... still, that leaves the decision on who you guys will be staying with while I'm away for the week. I wonder if there are any volunteers...

[The Count]

Got it Erin, sent ya a reply. Oh, and don't forget about hippogriffs like Buckbeak.

[tvlistingman]

PETER: So It is Dave Goelz's 62nd birthday

ZOE: Happy Birthday Mr. Goelz

BABY BEAR: The man who play's Gonzo

LITTLE BIRD: So why don't we watch Mr. Goelz's work and Gonzo's work on TV

PETER: Yes!

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: OMG! The Rock Honors: The Who was awesome last night...wasn't it?

Zoot: *drowsily* Uh huh...

Dr. Teeth: *still tired like Zoot* Mhm.

Chamberlain: MMmmmmm. Roger Daltrey's gone grandpa, though.

Ailie: *cries* Well, he's in his 60's. I think he's still cute...in an oldy way. *pulls out a picture of him from the Woodstock era and drools over it*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *rubs eyes* I shouldn't've had that Dr. Pepper right before bed...

Marvin: *stretching his arms* What time did you fall asleep last night, anyway?

Caitlyn: ... um... a little after 3?

Lips: And that's what happens... *yawn*

Caitlyn: We all tired?

Roomies: *sleepily nod in agreement*

Caitlyn: ... let's make an oath: we will not drink any caffinated drink before bedtime.

Marvin: *with not that much enthusiasm* AMEN!

Lips: *sleepily* Woo-hoo...

[WhiteRabbit]

Dr. Teeth: *lying facedown* So, Ailie, uh...what d'ya wanna do?

Ailie: Hm...wanna make out?

Zoot: Ailie...

Ailie: Nya?

Zoot: There are children here...like--like Chamberlain...

Chamberlain: Yes...because I'm really just eleven years old.

Zoot: Really?

Chamberlain: No.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *sitting on bed, typing on laptop* So, Zoot, whatcha wanna do today?

Lips: ... Zoot's next door.

Caitlyn: Sorry, somehow I get you two confused.

Marvin: I'm going out. *grabs the car keys and leaves to go.. somewhere*

Lips: Bon voyage.

Caitlyn: *takes a sip of Dr. Pepper* Well... today's the last day before I leave to camp. Wanna go see what Ailie and them are doing?

Lips: Any alternatives?

Caitlyn: Not at the moment. *with Lips, goes to Dorm 17's door and knocks on it* Hey guys, can we be bored together?

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: I don't know...can you?

Ailie: *ungluing her lips from the keyboardist's* Chamberlain, don't be a...Chamberlain. XP Sure, guys.

Zoot: Zzzzzzz...gravy...

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Thanks. *sits down on the floor with her laptop*

Lips: *leans against a wall* Welcome.

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: *glancing over Cait's shoulder* Ooh...and what is the teenager looking at?

Ailie: Chamberlain...you're gross.

Chamberlain: Thank you.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *shoves Chamberlain out of the way* Noneya business. *is looking at the Muppets' YouTube, Myspace & Vimeo accounts*

Lips: ... *shrugs* Hmm. *goes back to thinking to himself*

Caitlyn: *suddenly* I stayed up later than ALL of you! O_O

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: Well, we watched the rock honors twice and then messed around until 4...

Zoot: *wakes up* ..in the morning. *moans*

Ailie: Pfft...I'd pull an all nighter for The Who. Wait, no! I'd go a week without sleeping!

Zoot: O_O *faints*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: ... you win. *goes to YouTube to watch Muppet videos*

Lips: *watches Zoot as he faints* ... *goes back to his thoughts*

Caitlyn: ... Tomorrow, I'm leaving for camp. *plays a YouTube video of Fozzie singing "Oklahoma"*

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: =( It seems like you're always leaving every other week.

Zoot: *recovers and glances sadly at Cait*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: I know. =(

Lips: *looks at Caitlyn sadly*

Caitlyn: But... this time... *trying to hold back tears* I'll be gone for a whole week!

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *cries*

Zoot: ;_; No way... *pushes Lips aside and clings to Cait*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *sheds a tear* I don't... I don't wanna leave you guys. *hugs Zoot*

Lips: *walks towards Caitlyn* *softly* We don't want you to leave, either. ... I don't want you to leave. *cries softly*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *hugs her back* Well, we don't want you to leave either.

Ailie: At least have fun at camp, though. =)

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *looks at Zoot* I just said that!

Caitlyn: Thanks, guys. The camp I'm going is a special camp for autistic kids, so I'm bound to meet somebody who's like me.

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *slyly* Coming from me, it means more.

Ailie: I'm sure you will. And you never know...they could be into Elvis and the muppets too. ^_^ What are you going to do for activities there?

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *crosses arms* It means more coming from you? Okay, since when did you decide to be involved with Caitlyn's personal life?

Caitlyn: *thinks* ... I forgot. I remember that I chose some things when I signed up, but I forgot what I chose.

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: I didn't...she's just trusts me more. =P

Ailie: Okies. Maybe they'll have band or something fun like that.

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: No, she doesn't! I'm her roomate, man. She trusts me more!

Caitlyn: I didn't sign up for band camp.

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *shrugs* They had a band signup at this one I went to in middle school but the camp wasn't based around it.

Zoot: Yeah, you just go ahead and keep thinking that...

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: At my school, there were posters up in the band hall for band camps. I know that a girl that lives in my neighborhood has signed up for some band camps.

Lips: *glares at Zoot* What are you doing to her?

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: Cool. What instrument does she play?

Zoot: I'm not doing anything. I can't help it that she loves me more.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: She plays clarinet, and she has her own clarinet.

Lips: She does not love you more!

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: I used to play it too...but I sounded worse than Squidward. X_X Drums are more my thing. I have a guitar and this really old piano and I can play them a little but I'm afraid to touch those 'cause they're ancient. XP

Zoot: Does too. D'you think she'd turn down this? *interrupts the band conversation by wrapping his arms around Cait's back and kissing her just to spite Lips*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *blushes*

Lips: *using all of his might to fight the urge to kill/attack/strangle the saxaphonist*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *breaks apart from her* Just a going away kiss for you...and there's more where that came from. <3 *snuggles her*

Ailie: O_o *edges away from the furious Lips*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: ... uh ... Th-thanks... *thinks... or at least tries to, her mind seems to be blank right now*

Lips: *could strike at any moment*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *huggling Cait* Don't forget about me when you're away... <3

Ailie: O_O *hides behind Dr. Teeth*

Dr. Teeth: *wakes up* Wha'cha--? Whodunnit?

Ailie: *apprehensive* Let's go outside. *runs off*

Chamberlain: *watches, eating popcorn*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: I... I...

Li[s: *tackles Zoot to the ground* Stay away from her!

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *screeches and tries to shove him off* Make me, Spit!

Chamberlain: MMMmmm...this'll be a good youtube video. *recording it on a cell phone*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Gladly! *keeps Zoot pinned to the ground*

Caitlyn: *kind of out of it* Hudda-whadda?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *knees him in the chest and runs into the kitchen to escape him* *finds some ketchup and rubs a lot under his nose before hiding the bottle quickly* *sprints back into the room* Look what that nut Lips did!

Chamberlain: O_O

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *still out of it* *tilts head* Huh? Pi-ka?

Lips: Liar! I did not do that to you!

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: *not mildly concerned but tries to bring Cait back to earth* They're fighting again. And Lips made Zoot's nose bl--

Zoot: *trying not to wipe away the ketchup* Did too! You're crazy, you can't take that Cait doesn't love you as much as she loves me!

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Everything was fine with her until you decided to get involved in her love life!

Caitlyn: *pokes Chamberlain's cellphone* Pikapi...

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: If I didn't, she'd be stuck with you...and that'd be a fate worse than--

Chamberlain: AAAAAAAH! Pokemon burns! *whacks Cait with the cell phone* Snap out of it!

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *rubbing her head* OW! Stop it, Chamberlain! *pushes him down*

Lips: *makes a fist* Wanna run that by me again?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *in a high, mocking voice* Being stuck with Lips is a fate worse than--

Chamberlain: OWIE! ;_;

Zoot: --the worse fate in the world. *snickers*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: That is not my voice, whoever's doing that! ... Chamberlain, that's not my voice!

Lips: Just back off unless you really want to be harmed, Sleepy.

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: Heh heh...Sleepy.

Zoot: You back off, Dopey.

Ailie: *pokes her head in the window* Can I be the Blue Fairy? Oh, wait...wrong movie.

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Make me, Grumpy.

Caitlyn: Hi, Ailie! *waves at her* I wanna go to the ball. Can you help me?

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: Hey, no fair! I'm Grumpy! Zoot can be the evil queen.

Zoot: *glares at Chamberlain* Oh, shut up!

Ailie: Sure. XD But I have to dance for the Topsy Turvy day festival too.

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *to Chamberlain* Stay out of this!

Caitlyn: Oh. *looks around* So, where's Jiminy Cricket?

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: I ate him. He's always nagging about something...

Ailie: *as Esmeralda* Poor buggy. ;_;

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *eyes widen* You ATE Dr. Teeth! ? O_O I can't believe you!

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: Huh? *cries* Great, now I'm a widow!

Chamberlain: Noooo...I ate the stupid, singing cockroach. Then again, I do see the similarities.

Dr. Teeth: Hey!

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *laughing for some reason* *ends up floating to the ceiling*

Marvin: *returns* Hello, my audience!

*crickets chirp*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *watching Cait* O_o

Ailie: I didn't want to be a widow at this age...whyyyy?

Chamberlain: Didn't you just hear me, you ditz? I ate the bug--not your spouse.

Ailie: O_O Ohsh. *clings to him*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *also watching her* o_O

Caitlyn: Off to Neverland! *tries to fly out, but hits a wall and falls back to the floor* X_X

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: O_O Wait for me! *tries to jump out the window*

Dr. Teeth: *holds her back*

Chamberlain: *cocks his head at Ailie* You can't be Esmeralda. You're blonde... =P

Ailie: I'll be Kate Barlow from Holes then. XP

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *tries to get herself up* And if my hair were and darker or my skin any lighter, I could pass as Snow White. But I have Belle's/Lilo's personality. =P

Marvin: ... hello?

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: Aw, Lilo's cute! Belle's personality better than Snow White's, though. Snow White's kind of...meh. XP *plays with a yellow spotted lizard* Start diggin', Sam.

Dr. Teeth: I can fix that--I mean, okay, Miss Katherine. XP

Chamberlain: *bites Marvin*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Yeah. *lies down on her back*

Marvin: *strikes Chamberlain with a mallet*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *snuggles against Cait* Trusst in me...

Chamberlain: *eats the mallet*

[The Count]

*Watches everything going on above him... *Jumps off from one bell to another setting them ringing. No love for this misshapen monster, or am I the man? Solve me that riddle if you can. Ah mee, ah my... *Sadly keeps ringing the bells of MC Dorme.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *starts to nod off to Dreamland*

Lips: *glares at Zoot*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: --just in me...shut your eyes...and trusst in me... *smirks back at Lips*\

Ailie: *cocks her head at Zoot* Gollum?

Zoot: *facepalm*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *closes her eyes*

Lips: *laughs* Gollum. XD

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: Smeeeagol... *tries to lure Zoot over with a fish*

Zoot: We're not--I mean, I'm not Gollum! Shut up!

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *laughing his head off*

Caitlyn: *is kind of in a trance*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: -_-

Ailie: *smacks Zoot with the fish* Preciousss...?

Dr. Teeth: Hey guys, lay off the mutated hobbit--I mean, man, a'ight?

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *laughing so hard that it probably hurts*

Caitlyn: *waiting for command*

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: *whacks Cait with his cell phone again* Wake up!

Zoot: *hisses*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *opens an eye* Hmm? ... *closes eye again*

Lips: *laughter starts to die down* Sorry, man. That was just... You know. =P

[The Count]

*Long claws ring at #17's door.

Deadly (Shere Khan): Hello... Heard music coming from up here... So I thought the saxophonist must be entertaining someone. *Flecks claws out. You would tell me if you had company here in your abode wouldn't you? After all, I'd hate to lose such a talented tooter. Well, if you're quite sure that Cait's not in any trouble, I shall take my leave of you. Mmm, wonder why Chamberlain hasn't attacked that blood on the zoot suited one's nose. Ah, every thorn has a rose I suppose. *Stealthily skulks away.

[Katzi428]

Prairie:Grrrrrrrrr!:mad: slamming down the phone
May I help you?
Prairie: I just talked to my parents. They told me I can't have a youtube account! They're afraid that some jerk will get into it & post nasty stuff! It's not fair,Kathy! That weirdo Gonzo has one. The Swedish Chef has one. Beaker has one! Even those 2 old guys Statler and Waldorf have one! I'm not a little girl anymore!I just wish my parents would realize that!:(
OK..OK Prairie...take it easy. Rosita doesn't have one either,right?
Prairie:Right. snif
Well it's because your parents worry about you.
Prairie:But you have one.Doesn't your mom worry?
Prairie...there were times when idiots sent me nasty stuff. And I deleted it right away.Tell you what. Maybe later on we'll call your parents and Rosita's parents,and we'll ask permission for you to share my account.
Prairie:You'd do that?
Why not?
Prairie:Oh Kathy ..thank you!hugging me
You're welcome hugging her back Just one thing. You might want to apologize to your parents for slamming down the phone on them. I think they heard it.
Prairie:OK...I will.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Uh... uh... Let's see, Tony can take care of Marvin. Various people can take care of the Muppaphones. ... who could Lips stay with while I'm gone?

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *sits up in her bed*

Lips: *was practicing his trumpet* Caitlyn? I thought you were asleep/

Caitlyn: I know. I thought that going to sleep earlier meant that I Was gonna be more rested for the trip tomorrow. *shrugs* Instead, I got a two hour nap.

Lips: *sits beside her* Oh. ... look, I'm sorr about earlier. I shouldn't have lost my temper and... you know...

Caitlyn: Forgiven. But I don't know for what. My mind's still out of it.

Lips: *embraces her* That's okay.

Caitlyn: *nods* ... *rubs eyes* Hey Lips?

Lipd: What?


Caitlyn: *goes over to desk and picks something up* *gives it to Lips*

Lips: *looks at it* Chapstick?


Caitlyn: Keep it. I already have a new one that I'm taking with me to camp.

Lips: *grins* Thanks.


Caitlyn: *smiles back* You're welcome. *briefly takes the chapstick back*

Lips: What're you--


Caitlyn: *applying chapstick to her lips* Shh. *finishes, then does the the same for Lips*

Lips: *slightly confused*

Caitlyn: *gives the chapstick back to Lips* You and Marvin will be staying with Tony. He, Ailie, Claudia, Ryan, and whoever else wants to will take care of the Muppaphones. Is that a suitable arrangement?

Lips: Why are--

Caitlyn: Am I telling you this? ... well, you're the only one up.

Lips: ... Oh.

Caitlyn: *snuggles Lips* I'm gonna miss you and everyone, Lips.

Lips: *snuggles back* Me too, Cait. Me too.

Caitlyn: *smiles*

Lips: *kisses her neck*

Caitlyn: *after he's through, kisses him on the lips*

Lips: *kisses back*

Muppaphone #48: Woah, baby!

*the kissing stops, and both look at the little Muppaphone*

Caitlyn & Lips: ...

Muppaphone: *leaves*

Caitlyn: ... that was... oddly reminiscent of a Full House episode.

Lips: ... *nods*

Caitlyn: ... wanna do it again?

Lips: Sure.

*the two wrap their arms around each other and kiss again*

((I guess... this is goodbye. I'll be back from camp in about a week.))

[theprawncracker]

Sam: *obviously flustered* Ryan! What are--why are there furry little round talking things?
Ryan: *picks up a Muppaphone* You mean these guys? Aww, Sam, they're Allie's roommates! We're watching them for her while she's gone.
Sam: *shuffles a Muppaphone out of the way with his foot* Yes, but how many of them?
Ryan: *shrug* I didn't count 'em when they came in.
Sam: *gasps* What? That's like allowing illegal immigrants into your country!
Ryan: So does that make me a fine, upstanding American citizen?
Muppaphones: *laugh*
Sam: *frowns* I'm sleeping in the hall.
Ryan: Sweet! *goes to high-five Muppaphones* Oh yeah...

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Thanks for taking care of some of the Muppaphones for me, Ryan. Just remember that the rest are with Ailie, Claudia, Tony, and... well, everyone else. There's so many of them.

Marvin: *taking his stuff to Tony's room*

Caitlyn: Tony, you'll be watching Marvin, Lips, and some of the Muppaphones while I'm away at camp. They shouldn't be any trouoble.

Lips: Caitlyn...

Caitlyn: Yes?

Lips: *clings to her* I don't want you to go! ;_;

Caitlyn: Lips, we already went over this last night. You and Marvin will be staying with Tony, and I'll be back next Saturday.

Lips: ... r-really?

Caitlyn: Of course. *hugs the trumpet player* Now, let's move your stuff to Tony's place.

[The Count]

You know... Would look after some of the Muppaphones for you Cait, but I'm a bit fearful they'd distract me from my counting characters... Or derail my plans by spawning new plans... *Sigh. How did Jim do it? How do any of those toy manufacturers do it... Oh well. Have a great week at camp!

[Winslow Leach]

Newsie strums a guitar.

Newsie (singing)

I gave my love a cherry that had no stone,
I gave my love a chicken that had no bone,
I gave my love a ring that had no end--

Crazy Harry grabs the guitar, and smashes it to pieces against the wall. He stomps on the remains.

Tony: o_O...that's it! No more Animal House for either of you!

Tony puts a DVD of "The Three Amigos" into player.

Tony: There. Now that's more like it!

[Winslow Leach]

(on TV):

El Guapo: Would you say I have a plethora of pinatas?

Jefe: A what?

El Guapo: A plethora.

Jefe: Oh yes, you have a plethora!

El Guapo: Jefe, what is a plethora?

Jefe: Why, El Guapo?

El Guapo: Well, you told me I have a plethora. And I would like to know if you know what a plethora is. I would not like to think that a person would tell someone he has a plethora, and then find out that that person has no idea what it means to have a plethora.

Jefe: Forgive me, El Guapo. I know that I, Jefe, do not have your superior intellect and education. But could it be that once again you are angry at something else, and are looking to take it out on me?

[Winslow Leach]

(on TV)

Lucky & Ned

My little buttercup has the sweetest smile,
Dear little buttercup won't you stay awhile?
We'll settle down together in a cottage built for two,
Oh, dear little buttercup, I love you!

Lefty: Heh heh. Dis is pretty good. Dose guys in da bar tink dey're dangerous killers, heh heh heh!

Newsie: Shhhhhh!

Lefty hits Newsie over the head with a frying pan.

Newsie: Ow! You son of a motherless goat!

[Beakerfan]

A tumble weed blows past the door of room 24.......

[The Count]

Summer winds blow through the dorms, rattling a few fixtures, though not enough for any real damage nor enough to wake a certain number of roomies.

[Katzi428]

Room 6 is quiet except for West Side Story being on TV

[Beauregard]

Bo: *typing*
Beau: *dusting a tie-pin*
Bo: *sighing* Must we always alliterate?

[Erine81981]

In room 26 all that is heard is the TV which is playing the new recorded episode of "Hanna Montana."

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *watches Batman Begins* Oh I do so love this movie!
Gonzo: Michael Caine! Wow! He's brilliant! Too bad he didn't get to jump off the buildings like Batman!
Clifford: Yeah, I'm sure he's just as upset as you are...
Muppaphone: Hey, Gonzo, do you think you'd like to take my place in Marvin's performances?
Link: How much does it pay? I might be interested.
Other Muppaphone: Pay? Ha! Yeah right! That's rich! Hoo!
Sam: *gasps* Have you taken up a complaint with OSHA?
Ryan: ...Sam, do you even know what OSHA stands for?
Sam: "Oh, Susana, Help America."
Ryan: ...yes, Sam... that's exactly it. *resumes watching Batman*

[The Count]

*In Prawny's room...
UD, enjoying the movie: You know... I wonder if that eagle would enjoy the series American Dad. Ah well, to each their own.
*Lights a match in front of his face, then toasts his bag of popcorn feeding the little Muppaphones huddled in his tattered overcoat.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Shh! Uncle D., don't tell Sam about that show! You'll give him too many ideas!

[The Count]

*UD: Very well prawn... Just don't make me lock you in your room to update again. And don't spill any of the sequel to the big bats downstairs... They're planning to go on the midnight scremiere this Tombsday.
Now then... Green tea? *Produces cup filled with the foggy liquid as they get to the party where Raz crashes Bruce's birthday.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Oh thank you very much Uncle D. And I promise... no sequel spoiler from this prawn! It's best to go into it with no prior knowledge!

[The Count]

*UD: Well... A little knowledge is good. Especially for the master, he likes to have as much information as he can on a movie he's going to, blind batty eyes you know.

*Voice: You either die the hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

UD: And don't get him started on his Bat-villain laughs. They're positively bone-chilling.
*Small gleam of a smile courses across the dragon's wrinkled visage.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Well... the only knowledge you really need to know... is that the Joker is fantastic. I'm sure Ed will love it!

[The Count]

*UD, dunking a cookie in his bat's milk: Yes... But then he'll be asking where you get all your wonderful toys... Or my favorite, have you ever been dancing with the devil beneath the light of the blue moon? And then he'll be rooting for that riddle fellow and feline femme fatale to appear in the third movie... His faves you know. Though I'm a bit partial towards Dr. Crane, such a splendid scarecrow he made, much better than the frog.

[Winslow Leach]

(Tony pokes his head in)

Well, if you're a fan of Dr. Crane, he does make an appearance early on in The Dark Knight...

[The Count]

*UD, casually: Yes... That Mike Angal did a fine report on Dr. Crane's latest entrepeneurial endeavors... Shame he got sidetracked though. And to think, everyone was running rampant speculating this Anthony Michael-Hall would be the Riddler. *Waves hand in a Dr. Forester shrugging mannerism.

[Winslow Leach]

And to think, everyone was running rampant speculating this Anthony Michael-Hall would be the Riddler. *Waves hand in a Dr. Forester shrugging mannerism.

LOL, yeah! How did that rumor start anyway, about Anthony Michael Hall playing the Riddler?:zany:

[The Count]

*Walking down the hall...

Me: It started with Warners and Michael-Hall being hush-hush about his role... Making us think it'd be some big villain they didn't want us to know about, before the stuff about confirming Dent would be turned into Two-Face that is.
Stil have to wait till Tuesday to seeit though... Meh.

Night all... And don't let the batty bats bite.
UD: Pleasant screams. Prawn, the sponsors are yours to announce tonight.
*Hugs his former roomie and departs for his deadroom down below in the basement graves.

[Winslow Leach]

Tony: So...been pretty quiet here lately, huh? (pause) Said it's been pretty quiet here lately. Huh?

Lefty: Wha...? Oh...riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

Newsie: So Tommy...do you like...stuff?

Tony: Yeah. Stuff is cool.

Newsie: I like certain kinds of stuff. Some I can do without.

Crazy Harry lights a cherry bomb, and throws it across the room. It's a dud.

Tony: Man. Even Harry's cherry bombs are quiet.

Newsie: Yep.

Lefty: Yep.

Crazy Harry (sniff) Yep.

[Winslow Leach]

Tony, Lefty, Newsie and Harry stare at the wall.

Tony: Hey, I think it moved!

Newsie: What moved?

Tony: The wall, man!

Lefty: Huh.

Newsie: Interesting.

Mr. Turtle: My word, the dunces are bloody annoying today...moreso than usual!

[The Count]

... Yeah, it's too quiet in here.
Count: A little 2 quiet.
That's a little bit better.
Count: A little too little too bit better.
UD: Ah, Ally Sheedy's Frankenstein.

[Beakerfan]

Floyd: *opens the trap door* Hey man! I heard the walls are moving in Tony's room!

Janice: Like, that is SO psychadelic! Are we going down there Floyd?

Floyd: You bet we are! I've never seen the walls move before!

Janice: What about that time in the van when like, you and Zoot and I, like, shared that bag of shr-

Floyd: Let's not talk about that in front of the kids!

Bean: *eyes wide, nibbling on a carrot*

Sweetums: *eyebrow raised, slicing mushrooms*

Floyd: *glares at Sweetums*

Sweetums: What? I'm making a salad! *throws a mushroom at Floyd*

Animal: *throws a waterballoon at Floyd*

Floyd: *drenched* HEY! Come on, Janice. Let's go stare at Tony's wall.

[Winslow Leach]

Janice: What about that time in the van when like, you and Zoot and I, like, shared that bag of shr-

Floyd: Let's not talk about that in front of the kids!

Bean: *eyes wide, nibbling on a carrot*


><

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!:zany:

[Winslow Leach]

Tony: Sure guys, come on down, and watch the magical moving walls! Oooooooh! There's room for everyone!

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie and her dormies: *poke their heads into Tony's room and gaze at the wall* O_O

Dr. Teeth: Trippehhh... O_O

Zoot: *nudges Janice* <3

[The Count]

*Meanwhile...

Ha ha, they don't suspect a thing. Little does Tony and all in his room realize the walls are indeed moving... Because they're slowly being attacked by a crossword puzzle!
Oh hey Uncle D. Shouldn't you be getting ready to frighten Claudia into posting again?
UD: Not yet. The movie's not being released until next week remember?
Yes... But what fun we will have here and maybe in the fic section. *Secret plans to spookify Squeedom.

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Storyteller: Five across, six letter word for either pandemonium, or the name of a rock group.
Beige: Mayhem.
Storyteller: Eight down, with the X-Files, I want to...
Scooter: Believe. (whistles a few bars of X-Files theme)
Storyteller: Nine across, the leaves in this season were turning to the color of her hair.
Nora: Autumn.
Storyteller: Ten down, the skull in a certain recent movie was made of this mineral.
Erin: Crystal.

[The Count]

Mwahahahahaha! *Huggles Erin.

Oh, BTW... Tomorrow Sci-Fi's airing a Ghost Hunters International episode eminating from... The White Lady's rest in peace residence at Kenwothy. Uncle D, is that the place?
UD: Could be, but Erin and the gofer know more on that subject than I. Should really visit her and Fughetta this year...
Would watch it myself, but we'll be heading out to the cinema for a jaunt to Gotham City.

Take care. And I hope you're able to avoid the spine-shattering clue of 13 straight down dead center.

[The Count]

Ah... The big day's here! Count, Uncle D, you guys go get bathed and dressed, I'm ready and will be waiting in the common room. My bros will come with us, but we'll meet up at the Rainbow Connection Moviehouse.
*The fiends head off to the bat-room, chatting about their excitement over going to see The Dark Knight. And yes, Deadly can leave the dormhouse... Tunnels beneath the entire city that link him back to the theater you know. He'd never let anything happen to his first place of resideathe, especially after that incident with Benny. Wonder if Sean will use that for some of his fanfic...

*Waits for his party to all be presentable before leaving for our appointed final hours.
:batty:

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *after seeing the Studio DC promo* O_O

Chamberlain: O_O

Ailie: Well, whatever gets them back in the spotlight...it's coo' with me. *eye twitch* *turns to Dr. Teeth and Zoot* Why--were--you--working--with-- *inhales* MILEY CYRUS? ! YOU TRAITORS!

Zoot: *gulps*

Dr. Teeth: I--we--RUN, ZOOT! O_O

Ailie: NYAAAAAAAA! *chases after them*

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *dives in front of Allie* NO! Stop! Think, Allie, how much popularity this will bring our mostly-silent Mayhem! They're speaking! It's a good thing!
Gonzo: Yeah, and Miley's a babe!
Ryan: ...You can hurt Gonzo, though.

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *crying while strangling Dr. Teeth* ;_; </3 I know and I'm glad but...but...not Miley...that's just cruel and unusual to force them to perform with--O_O *chases after Gonzo*

Dr. Teeth: X_X

Chamberlain: Psh...Ashley Tisdale's way more of a babe-- *gets hit with a brick* ACK!

Zoot: And that Zac Efron...hubba hub--er, I mean, he's okay...

Ailie: -_- I quit.

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: Good thing you didn't hit Gonzo with the brick, he would've enjoyed it too much.
Gonzo: You ruin everything, Ryan!
Ryan: Uh huh... *pats Chamberlain's head* Please don't eat me.

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: Mmmmmm... *stalks Ryan* O_o

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: ...not again! Can't I go one month without a Skeksis stalking me?
Gonzo: What fun would that be?

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Mwahahahahaha! *Huggles Erin.

Storyteller: Mmm, close...it's Kneb...something.
Nora: Knebworth, Knebworth House.
Scooter: Yeah...also known as the Mallory Gallery, and Wayne Manor.
Beige: So how many spooks live in that place?
Erin: Well, there's the White Lady and the graveyard ghost, there's Ed Lytton himself...and Jenny and her spinning wheel.
Scooter: Hey, didn't you go there when you went to England last spring?
Erin: Nope, but we were within screaming distance.
Nora: So to speak.
Erin: The house is in Stevenage, see, and that's a straight shot out of King's Cross.
Nora: The Flying Scotsman's route...same for the Hogwarts Express.
Beige: Nice...but what about Fughetta, where does she live?
Scooter: Oh, she's got a place up near Newcastle - right on the Tyne, and Wild, Mimi and Riff live with her.

[WhiteRabbit]

Ryan: ...not again! Can't I go one month without a Skeksis stalking me?
Gonzo: What fun would that be?

Chamberlain: *sniffs Ryan* O_o Mmmmmmmmm...well, I need something to occupy myself.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *comes back from camp wearing... her camp T-shirt* ... *pulls it off to reveal her EM T-shirt underneath* Man, I miss everything when I'm gone! *leaves stuff by the room and plops down on the common room couch*

[Beakerfan]

Alex: *sitting on the floor holding a were-Smurf figurine, eyes wide, rocking back and forth*

Floyd: She's a wreck!

Sweetums: She's been this way since last night.....

Bean: She's gotta snap out of it! What's the matter, anyway?

Floyd: Withdrawl..... just leave her alone for now. She'll come out of it.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Know that feeling... *tries to locate some water and an eye dropper thing* I've been away from my laptop for a week. Also have a serious lack of sleep issue. Man, I sleep light when I'm away from home... By the way, where is everyone?

[Beakerfan]

OOC: Haven't seen Squeek for a couple days, I think Ailie's been around, and Tony...... well, lets just say he's the reason I'm suffering from withdrawls.

[AnimatedC9000]

OOC: Ooh... gotcha.

Caitlyn: *sighs* *unlocks the door to the room and puts her stuff by her bed* *goes to find her roomies* ... *puts her Tinker Bell hat & sunglasses back on* <_< ... >_> ... *continues on her search*

[The Count]

Yeah... Been too quiet here lately. Where'd that Squeedom go anyway? People have gone off on vacations, work, or plain haven't dropped by in ages. We should do something about that before it all ends. They'll probably come back next weekend for the big Muppets special though.

[Winslow Leach]

OOC: and Tony...... well, lets just say he's the reason I'm suffering from withdrawls.

OOC: I'm here for you, sweetie!:):flirt::flirt:

[BEAR]

Bryan: Hi, everybody!
Big Bird: Bryan, where have you been?
Bryan: I'm sorry I haven't been around here much at all.
Ernie: Now we understand how Ryan's roommates used to feel.
Bryan: I'm sorry. So much has been going on lately, I never have time to come to the dorms except for late at night when you're all sleeping. And even then, I'm too tired to even do anything.
Cookie: You still in play about guys and their dolls?
Bryan: (chuckles) You mean "Guys and Dolls"? No, that ended weeks ago. But now I have a new job that's been taking up so much time. I started teaching theater at a summer art camp for kids this month.
Big Bird: An art camp? Do kids draw pictures and things? I love to draw!
Bryan: Yeah, there's four different classes - Ceramics, 3-D Art, painting and theater.
I get to teach theater. The children are of all different ages ranging from 7 to 14 and at the end of the month session, we put on a short play.
Snuffy: Sounds fun!
Big Bird: Can we go to art camp?
Bryan: Well, I think the classes are pretty full right now, but maybe you can come by and check it out.
Bert: But wait...you said that you only come home at night. The art camp can't last all day.
Bryan: Well, the camp is only part of the day. The other part is spent at the store and restaurant working. The camp is only for another week, so it should all end soon and I can relax more. The good news is I have the next few days off! So what do you want to do?

(All at the same time...)
Big Bird: Rollerskating!
Bert: Pigeon watching!
Ernie: Kickball!
Cookie: Eat cookie!

Snuffy: Oh...
Bryan: dear...

[The Count]

Aw man... Could use some of that Figgy Fizz about now.

*Bad acid...

*Sends up a slim box wrapped in our familiar batty paper, containing a pasteboard with some mint bottlecaps of Muppet friends enjoying their summer state-by-state vacations. The box has a card saying Happy B-Lated B-Day to Bert. Hope he likes this... As the day was brought to you by the letter B and the number 6.

[Winslow Leach]

Tony is facedown on his bed.

Lefty: Da slug hasn't moved since last night...I know dat on accounta I lifted his wallet outta his back pocket, an' he didn't even punch me!

Newsie: Yeah...it's on account of her...(gestures upward)

Lefty: Da ceiling?

Newsie: Okay, Lefty..."dude"...you need to come up with a new catchphrase. "Da ceiling" is getting so old!

Lefty: How 'bout....riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight?

Newsie: Er...

Lefty: Or whatta 'bout...POTATO PANCAKES!

Newsie: That's not exactly what--

Lefty: Or...how 'bout "see dat?"

Newsie: "See that?" I don't get it.

Lefty holds his fist out like Moe.

Lefty: See dat?

Newsie: Ahhh...

Newsie hits Lefty's fist; Lefty responds by bonking Newsie on the head with said fist.

Newsie (staggering) You...crum-bum...outta my way...

Newsie pushes Lefty aside and kneels by Tony.

Newsie: Tommy...hey Tommy...she's not that far away, you know! All you have to do is open the trap door!

Beat.

Tony lifts his head, looks at trap door, and looks at Newsie. He smiles and pats Newsie on the shoulder.

PETER: So Guys Checkout

ZOE: What

PETER: This is on Youtube, it's Sesame Street preview for season 39

LITTLE BIRD: Wow,that is awesome

BABY BEAR: Look at 30 Rocks and Are You Smarter than an Egg Layer

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *spinning around in her computer hair* Where can they be? It's not like Lips, Marvin, or the Muppaphones to just disappear like they have! I mean, they'd still be here. ... oh yeah, Tony told me before I left that he could only take care of them until Tuesday and... darn it! Now they must be starving! And I had a "welcome back" number planned, too! Where's that sparkly red tuxedo...

[theprawncracker]

Link: Mmm... Ryan...?
Ryan: *blink* Yeah Link? What's up?
Link: I... I had something to remind you of.
Ryan: ...You did?
Link: Mmhm... but... I can't remember it.
Ryan: Go figure...
Link: It involved... fur...
Ryan: Link, EVERYTHING here involves fur.
Link: *nods* Mm, true.
Ryan: So...?
Link: And... pain...
Ryan: *rolls eyes* Everything in this dorm room involves pain!
Link: *points* Yes.
Ryan: So... furry pain.
Link: Yeah.
Ryan: ...Muppaphones! *runs out and pulls open the hall closet letting out a horde of Muppaphones* Sorry guys, forgot to let you out. Cait's back.
Muppaphones: *assorted mutters* *leave and head back to Caitlyn's room*
Ryan: Sorry... watch out for sparkly red tuxedo wearing women!

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *hugs the Muppaphones* I missed you guys!

Muppaphone #753: We missed the wide open spaces of the world beyond the closet...

Caitlyn: That still leaves Marvin and Lips to be found... Any ideas? Anyone?

Muppaphones: *replies of "No", "Haven't seen 'em", "It'd be better without Marvin", "Sorry", "Do you know what it's like to be trapped in a closet?", etc.*

Caitlyn: ... I could at least name most of you while I figure out where the heck they might be...

[theprawncracker]

Ryan: *bursts through the door* Name one after me! ! !
Link: Why do you get to be named first?
Ryan: ...there's really nothing going on up there, is there?
Link: Upstairs? I'm not sure... is there anyone living in the dorm room above us?
Ryan: *groans*

[Winslow Leach]

Lefty pokes his head into Cait's room...

Lefty: Ka-nock, knock! 'Ey. I hear youse are missin' two of yer roomies...dat frizzy haired guy dat youse are sweet on, an' dat strange character what likes ta give pain ta dose li'l furballs...riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

Lefty pulls Lips and Marvin to him; both are bound and gagged.

Lefty: I, er...I found 'em like dis! Riiiiight, riiiiiight! I'll let youse have 'em back fer da unbelievable price of just one nickel apiece. Only have one nickel? Den you'd hafta decide which one youse love more! Heh heh...

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: O_O *quickly unties both of them* Are you guys okay?

Lips: *gasping for breath* Must. Get. Alive. O_O

Marvin: *looks slightly dazed* Who is anybody? O_o

Caitlyn: ... I take that as a "maybe". And yes, Ryan, I'll be sure to name one after you. Now... what first, the naming or bringing my two roomates back down to earth?

[theprawncracker]

Link: ...are we on another planet? Don't panic! I am a highly trained space captain!
Ryan: Oh good grief...

[Winslow Leach]

Lefty (does quadruple-take at how quickly Cait saves her roomies) What da...? Where's my dime? Youse owe me a dime! (beat) Okay...how 'bout dis? Youse name one a dose furballs after me, an' we'll call it even!

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: And we're all glad for you, Link. *to Lefty* Deal. *turns to roomies* Now... what was the last thing you guys can remember?

Marvin: ... I remember... striking something... a baseball?

Lips: I think I was listening to a song about somebody named Sandy.

Caitlyn: ... this is hardly getting us anywhere. Ry, do you know of anybody else that could help?

[The Count]

*Clown mallet bonks Lefty on the noggin, sending him crashing through the floor to the basement level below, where he's then slid over to Slug's room.

*Unseen assistant hands Cait her sparkly red tuxedo.

Welcome back number in 30 seconds! Muppaphones on stage next!
Take it away Caitlyn... *Arm waving yaey!

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *looks at tuxedo* ... thanks. *to Marvin 'n Lips* Do you guys know who I am?

Marvin: Who knows anybody anymore?

Lips: *looks at Cait for a while* That face... those eyes... the hair... the body... It all comes back to me now!

Caitlyn: *eyes light up* Yes?

Lips: *shakes Caitlyn's hand* It's an honor to meet you, Miss Funicello.

Caitlyn: ... close enough. -_-;

[The Count]

Hey... Where's that welcome back number? We've got a show to put on!

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *pokes head out from behind the curtain* I'm sorry. We're still setting up, I'm still trying to get Lips back to normal, and Marvin...

Marvin: LADY OF SPAIN! 0_0

Caitlyn: ... is the only one out of the two that's starting to act like he was.

[The Count]

Ah... Okay then. You could always give Lips the end-all memory returner... *Nervous chuckle.
*Into intercom: Muppaphones, on stage for the opening number, Eight Balls of Fur!
*Sends Count out to sub for Chris at the rock 'n' roll organ tonightas the wall behind him is turned into a discotech scene, complete with random neon glowing 8's.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: I wonder if Jerry Lee Lewis ever played like that... I mean, pounded on the keys so hard, they started to fall apart. *goes towards drerssing room* I'll be changing into my costume, Ed. You and Lips... talk. *closes door behind her*

Lips: ... hello? You must be... Lips, right? Weird name.

[The Count]

*Meanwhile... Nah man... You're Lips. As in "hot" lips.
*Raspy Floyd laugh.
Come on pal. Doncha remember? You're the man on the horns. You know, Satchmo? Louie Armstrong? And all that jazz?

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: ... the dude with the blinking eyes? Or the guy that's Spanish who hits the lil' fuzzy things?

Muppaphone: *to Marvin* Repeat after me: Ow.

Marvin: ... ?

Muppaphones: *conk Marvin on the head with a huge mallet*

Marvin: OW! *rubs his head* What was that for?

Muppaphone: A taste of your own medicine... which you don't remember.

Marvin: Nonsense! I am not a cruel man!

Muppaphone: O_O; Oh shoot, he's snapped out of it!

Muppaphone # 453: Run for your lives!

*the Muppaphones who aren't involved in any musical numbers run away*

Marvin: Shut up!

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia: My mouth is sore from doing daily conferences. Honestly, I don't know how I can bare another smile. It hurts too much. Not that I'm plastic or anything, but who wouldn't get tired of stating facts over and over with one? Ah well, the price of being an executive. This job pays me really, really well.

Blind Pew: Somezing spoke! Ez coming from ze clozet!

Claudia: Do not interrupt my research with your constant blabbering! *Bares teeth*

Dr. Van Neuter: That's not Claudia, that's for sure. She's an airhead! And a new job?

Bunsen: Dearie me! I thought something had been mumbling queer things over there. Do take a peek, Beakie. I'm afraid I haven't the courage to bare my breast in the face of danger. *Pushes Beaker lightly*

Beaker: Mee meee meee?

Bunsen: Please do.

Beaker: *Sighs* *Opens the closet*....*Faints*

Dr. Van Neuter: Squirt, is that you? *Shocked*
*Frowns suddenly* Ugh, like, manicure major! *Points to her nails*

Claudia: *Imitating the Joker* Morning, commisioner....*Shuts the closet door again*
Leave me. I've yet ANOTHER health conference to attend to tommorow, and I expect nothing short of perfection. I must educate the people!

Composta: *Sniffling* She no get play anymore for...stupid...work...*Cries loudly*

Dr. Van Neuter: Aw, honey, come here...

Composta: *Bawling*

Claudia: *Opens the door again* Work is important. You'll see--right now--I may be missing the best times of my life. But I can promise that in the future, I will have more time to frolic about.

Bunsen: Goodness...

Claudia: I'm just busy, that's all. It looks as if I'm growing up too fast....but...eh, I was born old. *Giggle* *Closes the door*

Bunsen: You don't have time to even play with Mr. Peepers? He's been missing you for quite an awfully long time.

Don't you, Mr. Peepers?

Peepers: *Whimper*

Blind Pew: *Throws Peepers out the window* Now, my pet, let me properly diagnose you wiz ADD....*Closes the door* *Giggles*

[A minute later]

Claudia: *Runs out of the closet screaming* AIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[Claudia leaves the room and into the hall]

Blind Pew: *Goofy expression* Zyou know she fanzies me, no?

Bunsen: *Shakes head* As accurate as my ever-declining success rate, Mr. Pew.
Quite an imagination you posses. I trust you won't be eating that last....hmm?

Blind Pew: Zure. Go ahead. Eat it.
*Hands him his cookie*
*Stumbles across the room*
Oh, dark peeeeaaaarrrrlllllllll! <3
*Stalks Claudia*

[A choir of cats groaning sound from the hall]

Blind Pew: Get outta ze way, zyou stupeed cat!

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *comes out of dressing room dressed in the sparkly red tuxedo, a.k.a. in an outfit similar to what Leslie Uggams wore in her opening number on her episode of TMS* *sees Claudia, then Pew run by* ... okay. Either now's not the time to do the number, or I should wait until more people get here.

Lips: Who are you?

Caitlyn: ... Lips, it's me.

Lips: Why do people keep on calling me Lips? And I don't know you! Who are you?

Caitlyn: Your name is Lips, and you play the trumpet with the Electric Mayhem. One of your all-time idols is Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong. You live with me and Marvin Suggs in Dorm 15. You used to be good friends with Zoot, the band's saxaphone player. Unfortunately, something happened and you guys aren't on the best of terms. In fact, both of you frequently get into an argument about who I like better. My name is Caitlyn, and I'm your roomate along with Marvin. You and I have kind of been an item for a while now, and we went out on our first date about a week ago. I'm considering on becoming an entertainer when I grow up, and that's about all I know. Got it?

Lips: ... I'm sorry. Could you repeat that? I couldn't understand what you were saying.

Caitlyn: *sighs* You're L-- *gets an idea* ... Dr. Teeth, the leader of Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem.

Lips: I am?

Caitlyn: *nods* Here's a picture of you. *hands Lips a picture of Dr. Teeth*

Lips: Wow, I look great in this pic!

Caitlyn: Yup.

Lips: So who are you, if I may ask?

Caitlyn: Me? Well... my name is Jaye P. Morgan, and I'm a singer/actress.

Lips: Hey, I've heard about you. Didn't the frog say that you were guest starrin' sometime?

Caitlyn: Yes, I think so. And you know what?

Lips: What?

Caitlyn: I've always wanted to do a duet with you.

Lips: *grins* All right!

Caitlyn: Do you think that you and I could sing "That Old Black Magic" at the end of the show?

Lips: Sure, baby. Y'konw, I believe I've heard of the little green man speak very fondly of the memories of him and an aquaintance of his performing that very song during the whimsical days of Sam & Friends.

Caitlyn: ... *blink* Yeah. Yeah! Listen, I have to rest up a little bit before my opening number, but I'll be sure to chat again after the show. Sound okay?

Lips: Sure, baby.

Caitlyn: *moves to dressing room* All right. *before she closes again* Until then, I bid you adieu... at least for now. *closes the door behind her*

Lips: Mmm! Man, havin' Jaye P. here on the show is exhilerating experience of very heavy-duty proportions. She is one of the many greats in the singing world and I-- *feels head for something* ... I need to go find my hat. *goes to find it*

[BEAR]

Bryan: Okay, guys! I'm off to work! Now, remember, we are going to see the free screening of The Muppet Movie in the park tonight.
Big Bird: I'm so excited! This is the one where I make a cameo.
Bryan: The movie starts at 8, so be ready to leave here around 6:30 so we can get a good spot. You all know your assignments. Big Bird and Snuffy, you go around the Dorms and see if any of our other friends want to come along.
Snuffy: Right!
Big Bird: We can do that.
Bryan: Bert and Ernie, you guys are in charge of packing our picnic dinners, okay.
Ernie: Aye aye! (salutes)
Bert: Ernie...
Ernie: Khekhekhe!
Cookie: Bryan, what do me do?
Bryan: You...leave Bert and Ernie alone while they make dinner.
Cookie: It going to be challenge, but me up for anything!
Bryan: Good. Okay, see you guys later!

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *pokes Zoot* WO-MAN?

Zoot: *wakes up* Meh... *rolls over*

Ailie: *nudges* I'm bored. Read me a story.

Zoot: *whine* Bluh, I'm too tired...

Ailie: AH WANTS A STOREH, GRANDPA!

Zoot: O_o All right...all right... *picks up a sheet of music and reads it dramatically* B, F sharp, G, A flat--

Ailie: A good story.

Zoot: ...Go bug your freakhead spouse. -_-

[redBoobergurl]

Abby: Hey Beth, Big Bird just said that he and his roommates are going to see the Muppet Movie in the park tonight, can we go? Please, please?
Red: Ooh yeah, can we?
Mokey: That sounds lovely
Beth: Sure, I think that would be fine
Abby: All right!
Wanda: I'd better find something cool to wear, this heat is not great for my fur

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *still in sparkly red tuxedo outfit* AILIE! *hugs her* It's great to see you again! I missed you so much while I was at camp!

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *admires the outfit* O_O Sparkalehhh... *blinks* Hi Cait! =) I missed you so much too! How was camp? Wicked fun?

Zoot: *gazes for a moment and smiles* Hi Cait.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Camp was awesome! I met some Muppet fans there-- even a counselor!-- and got their e-mail addresses. I also participated in archery--I got 41 points the last day--, riflery--I shot my target 3 out of 5 times--, NOVA--which is like school but more fun; we did an egg drop thing, and my group's contraption didn't let the egg break--, dance class--which I was awarded for my knowledge of swing dancing and the 1950s on the last day, not to mention the ability to pick up on new dances very quickly--, team sports, and free swimming--which I didn't get to do from Wednesday onward 'cuz something happened. I also drew two Muppet pictures at camp--well, three if you count the first one I tried to do. And I drew one on the car ride home. I'll show them to you guys later. *to Zoot* Hi. How are things going?

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: That sounds so awesome! I'm glad you had a great time. Heck, I wanna go! XD I was in Cape Cod for a couple days with my Dad if it looked like I disappeared for a bit. T'was...all right. XP I can't wait for Sunday!

Zoot: *kisses her on the cheek* Same old... *huggles* I really missed you.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *blushes* Aw, Zoot... *hugs him back* I missed you, too. I missed all of you. Even the ones who... can't exactly... remember me... right now... *trails off towards the end*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: Why would anybody forget about you? =) Hey, if I forgot about you--would I-- *coughs* Would I have been working on this song while you're away? *nudges Ailie to grab their roommates to play backup* I didn't write it...but I hope you like it.

Ailie: *pokes a Whatnot to start playing the opening guitar riff* (The song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJCMGzJsmIM&feature=related)

Zoot: She's blood, flesh and bone
No tucks or silicone
She's touch, smell, sight, taste and sound

But somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothing's gonna happen
Yeah, yeah

'Cause she's so high...
High above me, she's so lovely
She's so high...
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
She's so high...
High above me

Chamberlain: *tries not to gag*

Zoot: First class and fancy free
She's high society
She's got the best of everything

What could a guy like me
Ever really offer?
She's perfect as she can be
Why should I even bother?

'Cause she's so high...
High above me, she's so lovely
She's so high...
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
She's so high...
High above me

(Guitar Solo)

Zoot: She comes to speak to me
I freeze immediately
'Cause what she says sounds so unreal

But somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothing's gonna happen
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
'Cause she's so high...
High above me, she's so lovely
She's so high...
Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
She's so high...
High above me...

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *blushes* Aw, Zoot... *embraces and kisses him* That's so sweet. Thank you for singing it for me. <3

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: You're welcome. =) *shyly* It, um, it makes me think of you. *kisses her back*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Aww... isn't he the sweetest thing?

Lips: That depends. Who is he?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *stroking Cait's hair* <33 *scowls at Lips and gloats* ME!

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *nods* And who are you?

Caitlyn: ... ah... er... hmm... *thinks* ... Elton John?

Lips: Huh?

Caitlyn: He's Elton John.

Lips: ... okay, whatever you say, baby. *leaves* Now, where did I put my hat again...

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: O_O Elton John? ! *sobs*

Chamberlain: ROFL!

Dr. Teeth: *in hysterics*

Zoot: -_- Oh, so that's how it's gonna be, huh? *pokes Chamberlain* So how are you today, Keith Richards? Man, those wrinkles are as deep as potholes!

Dr. Teeth: HA!

Zoot: Oh, and Don "Magic" Juan--I think I owe you. =P *gives the keyboardist a quarter*

Dr. Teeth: O_o Um, yay?

Zoot: *facepalm* That was an insult.

Dr. Teeth: ...ohhhh. o_O Yer goin' down, Zoot. *chases*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *chuckles some* *shakes her head* I'm serious! See, that's what I meant earlier about people not exactly remembering me. Y'see, I left Marvin and Lips with Tony, and Lefty apparently tied them up and gagged them. At first, both of them were kind of out of it. Right now, Marvin's the only one who's returned to himself, and Lips thinks that he's Dr. Teeth, I'm Jaye P. Morgan, and we're singing "That Old Black Magic" as the closing number for the show. *puts hand to face* I feel so guilty about telling him that...

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *while running* Oh, that's just great... -_-

Dr. Teeth: But--then...who is I?

Ailie: Will Smith. XP

Dr. Teeth: O_O Yessss. *goes off to fight aliens and rap about it*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: I don't know what convinced me to tell him that he was Dr. Teeth. I just... *sighs* I don't know. I feel guilty about it. And I need to stop using "I" in these sentences, I'm starting to feel self-centered!

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: Wait! Er...Dr. Teeth?

Dr. Teeth: It's Agent J now! And I'm bizzeh. So shut yo--

Zoot: Not you. -_- *walks over to Lips* You're not Dr. Teeth anymore! *snickers* You're Madonna.

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: ... I'm sorry, who? *tilts head to the side*

Caitlyn: *facepalm* And both me and Zoot are making it worse... And I suddenly have a huge headache. I think I'll... lie down for a while... *lies down on the floor* Can someone hand me a pillow?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: Ma-donn-a. Now put these cones on your chest and start singing Vogue. =P

Chamberlain: *gives Cait a dead owl*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: ... funny, I didn't know about ice cream being served.

Caitlyn: *to Chamberlain* HEY! What'd the owl ever do to you, huh?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: ... *throws a brick at Lips, hoping the blow to the head will bring his memory back*

Chamberlain: He gave me prank howlers. =P

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: OW! *rubs his head* ... *blinks* Where am I?

Caitlyn: *throws the owl back at Chamberlain and lies facedown on the floor*

[The Count]

Aw... A dead owl, it must be true love. *Goes off to pack picnic dinner for the park screening of The Muppet Movie. S'okay in there Squeeks? *Picnic basket lid: S'okay.

[Beakerfan]

A loud BELCH can be heard from room 24

Everyone: ANIMAAAALLLL!

Animal: Sah-ree.

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: Yesss. <3 *offers chocolate roaches to Ed*

Zoot: =P ...Disney World...where we ditched you in the '90s, Lips.

Dr. Teeth: Burn--I mean, that's not coo', Zoot. X_X

Ailie: *applauds Animal's burp* <333

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Still? *rubs head* Man, I thought I already got out of the Mexican pavillion...

Caitlyn: Headache... neck hurts... X_X

[The Count]

Thanks Chamberlain. *Packs the choc roacs for Uncle D. *Laughs at Animal's belching power. Still got it. Okay, so, just have to finish some errands here, and then we're off. *Still carrying Claudia cramped in the basket amidst all the food.

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *still spellbound and in awe from the belch* O_O *wants it for a ringtone and doesn't even have a cellphone* XP

Zoot: *squealing* EWWWWWW!

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Well, who are all of you guys, then?

Caitlyn: *looks at thermometer* I have a fever. 100.2. *head down* This isn't helping at all...

[redBoobergurl]

Beth: Hey Ed, hope you got my last message to you with the last of the songs you were looking for. Enjoy! Now, to pack up for the picnic.

[WhiteRabbit]

Lips: Well, who are all of you guys, then?

Caitlyn: *looks at thermometer* I have a fever. 100.2. *head down* This isn't helping at all...

Ailie: *gives her medicine* Reading my updated fanfic might help...hint hint. X_X JK.

Zoot: *throws the brick at him again*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: OW! *rubs head again* Why do I have a headache?

Caitlyn: Nice... any other suggestions? Maybe some from the good doctor?

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: Pfft...he flunked medical school. =P

Dr. Teeth: Did not! ;_;

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Guys, stop arguing. You're making my headache even worse. -_-;

Lips: Somehow, I felt like I was hit by a ton of bricks... that all landed on my head... *holds head* Ow... X_X

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *sighs at the others being immature even though he was squealing like a girl a few minutes ago* Right. I'll help you, Cait. *gives her a pillow and some Motrin to numb the pain* Better?

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *kinda monotonous* A little bit. Can you get me something comfortable to wear, a blanket, the remote, and can you put me on a bed?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *15 or 20 minutes later* Done. Anything else? O_O

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: ... I dunno. Whatcha wanna do?

Lips: Can I plesae have an explaination as to what's going on?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *kissing her on the head* Just rest. *to Lips* Nothing's going on. I'm just taking care of my girlfriend.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Okay. *closes eyes to rest*

Lips: ... your girlfriend?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *smiles winningly* That's right. *rubs Cait's shoulders*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *sighs* Zoot, I thought we had this discussion before. Why can't you let her choose who she wants to be with?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *under his breath* And why can't you get lost in Florida again...?

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: What did you say? O_o

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *singsongy* No-thing. *goes to get some more medicine for Cait*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: ... *sits at Cait's side, holds her hand* Feel better soon. I missed you while you were at camp. *strokes her hand*

[The Count]

Yesh, thanksees Beth. Oh, and I'm planning something nice to repay you. *Hums Abba songs to self.

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *whispering something to Chamberlain in the kitchen*

Chamberlain: Well, okay...but I want 3 dead rats this time not just 2, cheapskate. *skulks into Cait's room* Mmmmmmm... *lunges after Lips and bites into his hand.*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *is bitten* AH! Chamberlain! *kicks the over-grown vulture in the face* Why'd you do that?

Caitlyn: *lazily opens one eye* Get lost, turkey. Please... *closes eyes and tries to rest*

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: *hisses* FOOD! *tries to bite off Lips's arm*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Hey! Get offa me!

Caitlyn: Oh boy... Ailie! Dr. Teeth! Could one of you git Chamberlain outta here?

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: They're a little "tied up" at the moment. *cackles*

In Chamberlain's closet...

Ailie: ...this is sexy O_o <33333

Dr. Teeth: X_X

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Great. -_-

*a wave of Muppaphones come in and carry Chamberlain out of the room*

Lips: ... thanks, little guys.

[WhiteRabbit]

Chamberlain: *tries to fight them off and eat them all*

In Chamberlain's closet again...

Ailie: <3333 *licks* I love you...

Dr. Teeth: I'd love ta get outta here.

Random audience: O_o

[AnimatedC9000]

*a bigger wave of Muppaphones comes in and carries the first wave and Chamberlain out of the building*

*another group of Muppaphones is trying to break Ailie and Dr. Teeth out of the closet*

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: NO! NO! Don't break us out--this is so suspenseful and hot. XP

Chamberlain: *attempts to surf and falls on his face*

[AnimatedC9000]

Muppaphones: O_o

Caitlyn: ... are they gone?

Lips: *holds arm* I think so. Just rest for a while, honey.

Caitlyn: *nods* *closes eyes again*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *storms into the room and sneers at Chamberlain* Can't you do anything right? *spots Lips and slaps his hand away*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Hey! This was your doing all along, wasn't it?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *halfheartedly trying to play innocent* What-ever. Just keep your paws off my Caitlyn.

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Your Caitlyn? What if she doesn't want you right now? What if she wants me?

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *smirks* Right. Why would she want you?

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: One: I'm her roomate. Two: I've known her longer than you have. Three: I haven't seen her in a week and you're trying to steal her from me.

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: I don't have to steal her. She comes to me anyway; she's smart enough to know who's the right man.

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *scoffs* Yeah, right. I know for a fact that she's not like that at all, Zoot.

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: Really? That's surprising considering you have NO BRAIN.

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Oh yeah? Well, you're so self-centered, you think the whole solar system revolves around your big, swollen head!

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: Better mine than your deflated one. =P

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: ... *punches Zoot in the face* So there. =P

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *screeches and lunges at Lips to pull a chunk of his 'fro out*

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *screams and twists Zoot's arm back*

Caitlyn: *watching "Saludos Amigos"/"The Three Caballeros"*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *tackles Lips to the floor*

Ailie: *rushes back into the room with the good doctor* O_O

Dr. Teeth: O_O Ya guys! *crawls in between them and tries to break up the fighting* Knock it off!

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: *points to Zoot* He started it!

Caitlyn: *specifically, she's watching the bonus features*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: And I'll end it! *goes to punch Lips in the mouth and accidently hits Dr. Teeth instead*

Dr. Teeth: Look, guys--ACK! X_X *gets his gold tooth knocked out* ZOOT!

Zoot: O_O *backs away apprehensively* L-Lips did it...

[AnimatedC9000]

Lips: Don't listen to him, Dr. Teeth. He's just trying to framee me... because he's so untrustworthy!

Caitlyn: ... *shrugs & goes back to watching movie*

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: Shut up!

Dr. Teeth: O_O Zoot...I'mma kill ya.

Zoot: *screams and runs off*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Huh? *to Ailie* What's happenin'? Did I miss something?

[WhiteRabbit]

Ailie: *shrugs* *paints Chamberlain's talons*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Ah. *goes back to watching movie* *muches on popcorn*

[BeakerSqueedom]

Thanks Chamberlain. *Packs the choc roacs for Uncle D. *Laughs at Animal's belching power. Still got it. Okay, so, just have to finish some errands here, and then we're off. *Still carrying Claudia cramped in the basket amidst all the food.

Claudia: O_o But I have to sort out today's investments!
*Is stuffed into the basket* ;_; Money, my precioussszzz.
Moneeeyyyyy!

Dr. Van Neuter: *Alongside Edward* Shut your trap, Claudia.

Claudia: :3 Tell me, who's carrying this luffily basket?

Dr. Van Neuter: Ed, why?

Claudia: *Scrambles out of the basket, and throws herself on Eddie* Eddie, Eddie, Eddie! I missed you! XD *Snugglesglomps* You know, we have a bit to catch on! Oddly enough, moi came prepared! *Shows soymilk*

Bunsen: ...Dear, I sure do hope you are joking.

Claudia: O_O THE SOY KNOWS ALL, BUNNIE!...
The soy knows all...>_O

I also brought ginger-flavored chips....ORGANIC! :3

*Choir of angels*

[BEAR]

Bryan: I'm home! Everyone ready to go?
Bert: I've got the chairs and blankets!
Ernie: I've got the picnic basket!
Cookie: Me got empty tummy.
Bryan: We'll fill that up soon.
Big Bird: And Snuffy and I gathered up some more friends to join us.
Snuffy: Hey, Count! How many people are coming so far?
Bryan: Yeah, let's get that head count and be on the way. We don't want to be late.

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *watching "The Three Caballeros" with the Muppaphones* *laughs*

Muppaphone #593: What's so funny?

Caitlyn: I swear, between me, Lips and Zoot, we could reenact the whole Brazil part in this movie.

Muppaphone #482: You're right!

*all the Muppaphones start to laugh*

Caitlyn: *laughing* I have GOT to show this movie to them sometime!

*A little bit later...*

Caitlyn: And between Zoot, Dr. Teeth and Lips, they could probably reenact the whole movie. XD

Muppaphones: *chuckling*

Caitlyn: Now, give me your opinion: should Zoot or Lips be Donald?

Muppaphone #433: *through laughter* Definately Zoot!

Caitlyn: I know! ... wait, what? *giggles*

Prairie:Hi Kathy. My mom made some deviled eggs to cheer you up.
Oh Prairie...how sweet of her!I'm going to call her to thank her.

Prairie's mother:Hello?
Hi Mrs.Dawn...it's Kathy..Prairie's friend.
Prairie's mom: Not to mention a young lady who's like a second daughter.*laugh* How are you doing honey? I know today's been kind of rough & we were thinking of you.

[Winslow Leach]

Lefty, holding a video camera, approaches Newsie.

Remember, kids: Lefty holding a video camera is bad news for ANYONE, not just Newsie...

Lefty: 'Ey monkey-face, do sometin' funny.

Newsie: I beg your pardon.

Lefty: Ya hoid me lemon-head! Do sometin' funny. I'm makin' dis video fer dat show where people an' animals do sometin' "spontaneous"...riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight...an' end up winnin' a lotta green if dey do sometin' funny.

Newsie: And you'd like me to be your guinea pig?

Lefty: Naw, just be yerself. Pretend yer readin' da news an' pick yer nose or sometin'.

Newsie: I will not demean myself in such a way. I am a respected journalist!

Lefty: Yeah, yeah, yadda yadda yadda.

Newsie: Why don't you ask your turtle friend?

Lefty: He's bein' a crum-bum on accounta he's rehoisin' Da Tree Sisters by dat Russian guy. Now come on. If I win da prize, I'll give youse...uh...oh! I'll give youse da last stick of gum in dis pack here!

Newsie: Wow, a whole stick?

Lefty: Y-well...not da whole stick...maybe half...

Newsie: Pass.

Lefty: Hey Tomm--

Tony: Pass.

Lefty: Crazy Harry ol' buddy--

KA-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Crazy Harry accidentally blows himself up.

Lefty: Aw, jeepers! Why does all da good stuff happen when I don't have da camera runnin'? Criminey!

Lefty turns and slips on a discarded banana peel, conveniently located in his direction. He slides across the room, crashing into the CD bookcase; CDs rain upon him; the almost-empty bookcase crashes on top of him; only his legs and feet are visible, like the Wicked Witch at the beginning of The Wizard of Oz. They twitch for a moment, then are still.

Newsie: Anyone catch that? Why isn't there ever a camera around when we need one?

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: *knocks on Dorm 17's door* Hello? Anyone there? Have any of you seen Lips? I can't seem to find him. ... what am I doing? *silently sneaks behind Zoot and hugs him* Hi! ^_^

[WhiteRabbit]

Zoot: *hugs her back* Hi. Feeling better? <3

Dr. Teeth: *sneaks into Tony's dorm to kidnap Mr. Turtle*

[AnimatedC9000]

Caitlyn: Uh-huh. Look, I know you might not want to answer this question, but... Have you seen Lips recently? I wanted to talk to him about something.

Five Muppaphones: *silently follow Dr. Teeth*
