THE RULES

2007 Muppet Presidential Election begins

By Dwayne1115


Quote:
Well i have been watching alot of news as of late and i think a neat kind of game would be "The Next Muppet President Campain 2008" with all the plotices going on i think it would be neat to see some muppet mud slinging in all clean fun. i want to see what people think before i start this though.

Those 3 players will be assigned certain Muppet characters, who will later be listed in the polls to be voted for by MC members. In the meantime, Dwayne1115 will be the Game Host, asking the "Muppets" questions (non-serious, obviously nothing controversial) as if in a debate. All the "Muppets" will be given a chance to answer the question before the next question is asked, thus trying to convince why they (ie, the Muppet Character) would be the best President!

And, at Kimp's suggestion here's the game thread.

This lends itself open to a good, long game of fun and mirth. I will close the game, however, if it gets out of hand and serious or not within Muppet Central's family-fun atmosphere.

To discuss this game along the way, use this thread:
http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=22606

To understand the rules of role-play as characters, see this post:
http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showp...07&postcount=1

The election committee has convened and the ballots for Muppety President are as follows. An important note ends this post for two of the characters that have been chosen need an exception to role-playing rules. Keep in mind that the campaign is for Muppet President, the MC member is the running mate, and all posts must be made in the character which he/she is to represent.

Here's what we'll do (more rules):
1) Each Muppet candidate will post one post to follow this announcement which will be his/her campaign announcement speech.
2) At the end of each person's speech the ballot will be cast for voting to begin.
3) At the end of a certain period of time, the one with the least amount of votes will have to concede to the other campaigning Muppets; however, he/she may still participate in the game by rallying for the Muppet he/she will be voting for.
4) The game will end when the last Muppet stands.

DISCLAIMER:-Game rules can be altered at any time. Keep a check on post #'s 1 and 2 of this thread.
-This thread may be locked if a new one has to be opened in the event the polls may not be altered when begun.

On the ticket for Muppet President are:
(Muppet Presidential Candidate/MC Forum Member Running Mate)

Dr. Bunsen Honeydew/Luke
Grover Monster/theprawncracker

Miss Piggy/Ruahnna (conceded to the other candidates)
Beaker/Beakerfan (conceded to the other candidates)
Yorick/G-Man (conceded to the other candidates)
Pepe the Kingprawn/Kimp the Shrimp (conceded to the other candidates)

(To see the outcome of prior voting, please see this thread:
http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=31572)

SPECIAL NOTE/RULE(S):
For the purposes of this game, rather than "meeps," Beaker will be able to speak and be understood; and, rather than grunts, Yorick will be allowed to speak and be understood (quite like we allow Camilla to speak in words rather than just clucks in other role-playing games in the past).

[redBoobergurl]

Cookie: Uh-oh, only one vote so far for Grover. This not look good.

[Katzi428]

Prairie:Check again, Cookie.;) :)

[The Count]

Count, a little sad: Yes. Check the wotes, I think you'll find our good friend Grover's in the lead now. Vell, seeing as how Piggy's run is over, Scooter and me and the others vill be joining Grover's little bandvagon.

[Beakerfan]

It's already tied! OOooooooooooh! :crazy:

[theprawncracker]

Grover: Oh, thank you Count, and Scooter too. And it is looking good so far everybody. Thank you for voting already! And as for my next campaign promise. I will be as cute, and furry, and huggable as ever! And I will get to be the president! Is that not exciting?

[Beauregard]

Pepe: Hello jou presidential competorators, hokay. I just want to ask jou dis question, hokay. What is your policy on Salt-water Taffy, hoay? And monogomy, also, hokay? Where do jou stand on dese issues, hokay? Ok, hokay?

[The Count]

Pops, wakes up: Hey! How are you presidential fellers planning to pay for all of this electoral hoo-haw?
Huh? What are your choices?
A. Cash.
B. Credit Card.
Or C. Sneak out in the middle of the night.

[redBoobergurl]

Cookie: Ooh look, Grover in the lead. Too bad for Pig, but nice to get her supporters. This kind of nervewracking. When me get nervous, me eat COOKIES! *gobbles up a plate of cookies and also the plate* Come on everyone vote for Grover. *urp* Scuse me.

[The Count]

Mmm. Good thing I already had me a Boston Scream doughnut with milk before getting here. Heh, guess that gives me a bit of an idea for Cookie.

Might have to post my. Oh sorry, got lost there.
Everyone vote for, well, whoever you want to vote for!

[Luke]

Dr Bunsen: In honor of my victory in the last round i have returned, and with a new look - cosmetically enhanced thighs, hips, and um, Bunz - so hellloooo lady voters. Secondly i would like to send my best wishes to former candidate Piggy and wonder which candidate she shall now be endorsing ! *sends giftwrapped Versace dress to Miss Piggy with card - Luv Bunzy x *.

Now then, onto business. First questions from my good friend pee pee. Where do i stand on Saltwater Taffy? Nowhere, i like to eat it, not stand on it. Secondly my policy on Monogomy - well in my view why have just one partner when you can have a party in your pants and invite everyone. Lastly - Pops, my campaign is fully funded by the sales of my political broadcast workout DVD which includes Penguins in Tutus, Josie and the Pussycat Dolls, and "The Bunzettes". An autographed complimentary copy is on its way to you!

Thanks everyone and keep voting for Dr Bunz !

[theprawncracker]

Grover: Oh, salt water taffy is one of my favorite subjects! I love to eat it all gone, it is so good, salty and sweet, genius! And monogomy? Well, whatever it is, does it have anything to do with these things? *two Snowths pop up* Every time I say monogomy-
Snowths: Doo do doo do doo!
Grover: They do that. Oh, and Count, sir, my campaign is being funded by Mr. Johnson! My dedicated customer who accidentally forgot his credit card last time he ate a Charlie's.

[The Count]

Count: *Leans in. Uh Grover, it vasn't I who asked that question. It vas Pops.
Maybe ve need some more people to count their wotes. Seems noone's come to help out your cause or Bunsen's for that matter since yesterday.

[theprawncracker]

Grover: Oh, sorry Pops, sir. Vote for Grover.

[Luke]

Dr Bunsen: My fellow Muppets, monsters, penguins, rats and whatevers. I would like to remind everybody of my campaign policys that will be brought into power should i be elected into office. People may say i'm not as cute and cuddly as Mr Grover, however many of you will not know that i was the centrefold of "Biology Magazine" in May 1979. My policys are as follows -


Free Muppet Underwear For All - It is important in this age of Muppet decline we all wear our Muppet underpants with pride. Preferably over the pants, or lederhosen for our European friends.
I will greenlight immediately "Fraggle Rock - The Musical" in a prime broadway location. I will hold televised auditions for Doozers, who will be encouraged to wear tutus.
I will repaint the white house "Kermit Green" and install a hot-tub in the Oval Office. Penguins will wear tuxes and invite you to take a dip, while Rats with laptops will calculate your tax refund check.
My head of Homeland Security will be Bobo The Bear, and Crazy Harry will handle foriegn relations. Rizzo The Rat will handle agriculture & cheese. Sam The Eagle will advise on patriotism.
I will send for Micky Mouse immediately and encourage him (with a scientific ray gun) to greenlight the Muppet documentary spoof currently being pitched. I will also kick his booty until he see's my point on new Muppet CD's, a Muppet corner of The Disney Store, and the Muppetworld theme park.
My campaign is all about fun. So everyday at 2pm we will have happy hour and you will be encouraged to nerf gun your friends.
I will campaign vigorously for the return of multiple exclamation marks, and ellipses to Muppet Central and request the Pussycat Dolls be added to MC Radio (and encourage them to record covers of Muppet songs for this occasion)
New shows for TV will include Interspecies Dating with Pepe The Prawn, The Electric Mayhem Live Concert, Kermit & Piggy - Live Wedding Broadcast, Kermit & Piggy - The Aftermath, Nerd Talk With Bunsen "Mr Science" Honeydew, 680 Minute Makeover With Miss Piggy.
I will campaign for the mastertape of Muppet Wizard Of Oz to be burnt immediately and anybody who ever mentions this production or any obscure foriegn language Muppet Commercials will be thwacked with a Rubber Chicken.Anybody who wishes to ask me questions about these policys or about anything else is welcome, and i hope i will get your vote. Thank you!

[The Count]

Fleet Scribbler: Any questions on your policies? Then how do you respond to the lawsuit levied against you by former assistant Beaker for multiple life-endangering hazardous work conditions and unfair salary payments pittiusly below the minimum wage? And the issue that some of the penguin waiters have been mercilessly mocking the cardboard cutout of the lovely Ms. Brittany Speares, going so far as to make a new bald cutout forced to drown in ice cold jacuzzi waters?

[Beauregard]

I will campaign for the mastertape of Muppet Wizard Of Oz to be burnt immediately and anybody who ever mentions this production or any obscure foriegn language Muppet Commercials will be thwacked with a Rubber Chicken.

Dr Bunz, Dr Bunz, would it be possible in your conflagration of the Mwoo mastertape, to accidently leave pirate copies of the Scooter scenes on YouTube? Twas nice to see him again.

And, will you campain for the release of Timepiece and The Cube on DVD? or recorded on YouTube in high-resolution?

[Luke]

Dr Bunz: Bunzy here and time for todays mailbag - firstly i hereby declare all Scooter scenes sacred and to be archived forever, and Timpiece and Cube on DVD are a must. The penguins would like to completely refute all allegations of impropriety with Miss Britney Spears and reassure me they're all fully paid up fan club members. Lastly, the subject of Mr Beaker is a controversial one but i can assure you that the meagre income he earns at the Labs is supplemented by opening shopping malls, pizza restaurants and mortuarys as a result of the fame he has earned. It has also improved his love life!

[The Count]

Fleet: That's not what a Quackvin Featherline says. According to him, the penguins have formed clicks in which they take turns throwing balls at the jacuzzi dunk tank to dunk the bald Britney cutout into the chilly waters. What's more, they've gone so far as to performing little sketches with the soggy Britney feeding and choking off of soggy popcorn and having to endure bad sitcom-like conditions with a Paris Hilton cardboard cutout at the jailhouse set in their waitering lodgings.

[Luke]

Dr Bunz : Ooooh yes, i do have some recollection of the events to which Mr Featherline refers to, although i can assure you that Miss Spears and Miss Hilton were willing participants and both enjoyed these activities. I would guess that these allegations are due to Quackvin being fired from my campaign team due to poor rapping and calling Mariah Penguin a "Ho", and thus no longer being permitted to play in the Jacuzzi.

Please vote for me everyone, and help me keep this shennaniganary under control - under my watch, all Penguins will wear inflatable armbands and be treated fairly within the guidlines of the Supreme Court Of Penguin Rights!

[The Count]

*Crazy Harry proceeds to inflate the armbands on Bunsen's penguin supporters. And keeps inflating them. And inflating them. And over-inflating them. Until the armbands and penguins blow up.
Hee hee hee hee hee hee.

[Luke]

Ummmm . hate to tell you this but Penguins can't vote !

Foiled again Crazy Harry . BWAHAHAHAHA

[The Count]

Supreme MC Justice von Count: No. That vould mean you vould be foiled good doctor. As that vould mean ve vould have to disqualify many of your wotes/woters and reconvene all MC Justices in a special emergency session to decide vhether to allow this round to go forward, declare you ineligible on the ballot and start the round over vith Miss Piggy on the ballot, or declare Grover the automatic vinner by default. So I'd reconsider that statement if I vere you and make sure that all penguins are legally registered to wote and afforded the privilege/right to do so.

[Luke]

Dr Bunz: LOL, After taking advice from my legal advisors Beauregard, and Stone Cold Steve Austin we believe the rules from Super Moderator Foz to be final and as far as we can ascertain no penguins have voted for us as they could not be MC members due to having to enter their email address to register. After scientific tests we do not believe this possible with flippers. We would also question how Gofers managed this in previous rounds, as well as Frogs, Pigs, Rats, Prawns and large fingered Muppet Monsters.

The Penguins do remain committed members of the Dr Bunz campaign team though and are busy decorating Bunz HQ for our party on the 18th.

[The Count]

Supreme MC Justice von Count: Vell. It's not that hard, all they have to do is wrap their flippers around the lever and pull down to cast their wotes. Either that, or my little hand here helps them cast their ballots.
*Motions to live female disembodied hand.

This ruling will stand, as the honorable Judge Undertaker has lent his decision to our findings upon the matter. And you can't argue with his impecable record of fifteen, fifteen vonderful wictories and zero losses at the grandest sstage of all.

[Luke]

** Questions legality of the live female disembodied hand **

I just had to look twice at my sig, thought i'd written Drunk Britney Penguin . now THAT would cause a scandal on Muppet News !

[The Count]

Supreme MC Justice von Count: Please. The woters are the ones woting, my little helper does just that, help cast the ballot and emit the wote the woter has already decided upon. So it's no different than the lever pulled to send off one's wotes inside the woting booth.
*Sips dark brew to calm nerves after being caught in the recent MC timewarp.

[theprawncracker]

Grover: Hey everybodieeeeee! We need VOTES! I, Grover, can not win this thing on my little old own! So, come vote for Grover and you will get a cute, fuzzy hug! And, act now and we will throw in flying lessons from SU-*dramatic pause for effect* -per Grover! Flying lessons only void while supplies last, no refunds, no returns, and also, Su-...-per Grover is not responsible for anything broken, crashed into, or completely destroyed during the duration of the flying lessons. Thank you! Thank you, public!

[Luke]

Dr Bunz : Yes everybody, as my furry friend and opponent Mr Grover said, we need your votes. So please vote me, Dr Bunz, your Muppet President as then i will have a job to do and won't blow as many things up or experiment with Beaker and small kittens. To illustrate my point i will soon hold The Dr Bunz Telethon in this very thread where Beaker will be advertising the voting procedure whilst strapped to a nuclear powered massage chair. Yes we'll be easing poor Beakers aches and pains, but i need you to vote for meeeeeeeeee.

[Luke]

Only THREE Days To GO - Vote For Whoever Ya Like But VOTE!

[The Count]

*Penguins making out with Brittany cut-out... *A sudden flash goes off from the secluded corner of the jacuzzi area.
Squack! No pictures!
*Scurries off before Bunsen finds out.

[Luke]

* Bunsen sends Bobo (head of security) to chase strangely behaved and disguised guy wearing a bikini, wig, and trying to conceal a camera *

[The Count]

*Little does he know the pre-programmed camera has already been retrieved, and its owner fled the scene to publish said sneak peak photos in the tabloid's next issues.

[Beauregard]

Judge: *bangs gavel* Overruled! All pictures to be confiscated for my private viewing pleasure...I mean, so, legal reasons and American standards and values...which must be presented at all times by runners for the Muppet Presidential Campaign. *bangs gavel* Hand 'em over. *finds scrapbook*

[The Count]

*Thundercloud appears and lightning shoots out, striking down Bo's gavel.

Overruled on appeal by me, Supreme Justice von Count.
Bo, don't dress up pretending to be a judge in these wery important proceedings. Now leave the newspaper reporter to print his story with his riské photos or you'll have to clean out all the stalls at the batroom for a wery long time.

As for everybody else out there, please wote for whoever you vant to be the 2007 Muppet president please. We can't do this vithout your help and it's your wotes that count!
Thank you and please keep the memory of Jim in your hearts today, May 16th.

[Luke]

Um, how could photos of a penguin in a compromising pose with a cut-out of Britney be anything than a vote winner ..... there are people here who collect Piggy pics. Naked penguins, (well, wearing a bow-tie), that's Grade A stuff.

** thousands of Muppet Central members head to stores to buy special edition tabloid paper with Dr Bunz editorial centrefold. **

[The Count]

And yet... The people go and vote for Bunsen in spite of his staff being rocked by scandal, not to mention a not that flattering pic of Honeydew that looks like the melon's spoiled past its expiration date.
*Papers are thrown into the wastebasket, shoppers disgusted with the current political bruhahahahaha... Mothers are somewhat eased knowing Grover still has the lead. Patrons quickly exit, not wishing to do any business at the locals where the tawdry issues were stocked. And somewhere, a lonely printing press grinds to a hault, silenced by the droning of all the yellow journalism driving the political race to see who will win the office of 2007 Muppet President as if it were to be handed out to whoever doesn't get kicked off the island.

[Beauregard]

Meanwhile on a deserted island..."Oy!"...a goat is kicked into the sea.

But back to the regularly schedualed programming...

[The Count]

And as a consequence, a certain clumsworth custodian is rained upon by a shower of hot, then cold, then hot again, then subzero cold iced tea.

[Luke]

Penguin Announcer: Welcome to Bunzathon - The 24 hour Telethon, asking you to vote Dr Bunz your Muppet President. And now ...... here's Bunzy !

*canned applause*

Dr Bunz: Thank you, Thank you. I'm Dr Bunz, your host, campaigning to be Muppet President 2007, and Nobel Peace Prize Winner 2008.

Dr Bunz: Ah more calls from my loyal voters, keep em comin, and remember we need your vote too so please scroll to the top of this page and vote for Dr Bunsen Honeydew, that's me. Later, we'll have Penguin ballet, but first, The Great Gonzo performs blindfolded knife throwing on the spinning wheel of death, with none other than my trusty assistant- Beaker !

Beaker: MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP !

Gonzo: Stop shaking Beaker, you're making it harder for me to hit the target !

Penguin Announcer: We'll be right back after these messages from Quackers, THE brand leader in Rubber Ducky Invisibility Spray ....

[Vibs]

I vote Bunsen! Bunsen! Go Bunsen! <3 <3 <3! (those are hearts... apparantly.)

And now, Beau, I'd LIKE an explaination... and 500 dollars.

[Beauregard]

Screen cuts to a darkened room where a group of quakers enter, bowing, and eating breakfast cereal...

Beau: You did say Quakers, right, Dr Buxom?

EDIT: Vibs? 500 dollars? What are you talking about there? *hands the money under the table* I said quiet money!

Money: *starts screaming*

Drat...I hate when that happens...

[The Count]

*Patrol Officer Octopus busts into the clandestine closet and arrests all gathered there. So, trying to pay off the voters huh? Well, you can't get away from the long arms of this lawman. *Slaps handcuffs on Bo and Vibs and leads them away to Muppet Jail.

[theprawncracker]

Grover: Come on everybodieeeeeeeeeee! VOTE FOR SOMEBODIEEEEEEEEE! That is all.

[Beauregard]

*in Muppet jail*

Any chance of a parol, officer? And by parol, yes, I do mean pay-roll...*waves secret stash of golden goodies*

[redBoobergurl]

Cookie: Oh look at that. They tied again. This close race.

[Luke]

And now, Beau, I'd LIKE an explaination... and 500 dollars.

Well done Beau, i ike your style!

* looking through members list of old friends and hangers on *

[Luke]

Penguin Announcer: ..... and now it's time for part two of the Dr Bunz Telethon. Bunzathon presents a mixed up Muppet movie of epic proportions as we delve deep into a dark void to reveal ..... BUNZ IN SPACE (HOSPITAL)! (echo)

* We join Dr Bunz, his trusty sidekick Beaker, and patient Bean Bunny onboard their spaceship lab, The SwineShrek *

Bean: Doctor, i'm feeling kinda hot

Dr Bunz: Well you must be a hot cross bunny

Bean: I can't feel my tail and the producers keep editing out my lines

Dr Bunz: Sounds like you've been clipped!

Bean: So you said this won't hurt. Just a little liposuction to make me look trim on screen .......

Dr Bunz: Of course not. *aside* Beaker, you always said you wanted a lucky Rabbits foot right?

*Bean Bunny faints*

Dr Bunz: Just a little joke my furry friend. As you wish, just a little suction .... oh here's my special guest for this episode - Dr Phil Van Neuter

Van Neuter: Nothing like a little BRAIN SURGERY my guinea pig patient.

* Bean faints again *

Dr Bunz: He's a Rabbit actually

Van Neuter: Are you sure, cos i'm feeling horse.

* scene fades to black as the characters look around and a voice emerges *

Penguin Announcer: Tune in next time for more bad jokes and medical science .... and later, Penguin Ballet. But first, make sure you vote for Dr Bunsen Honeydew or we'll go back to BUNZ IN SPACE !

[The Count]

*Two tentacles shoot out to grab the bag of golden goodies and tag it with an "Exhibit A" label, before one of the two tentacles puts said bag in the evidence locker.
Right, that'll be used as evidence against you. Now sit tight and let the process of Muppet law run its course with your case.
*Keeps Bo and Vibs in jailcell until the voting results are announced tomorrow.

[The Count]

*Back at home... Hmmm, I kinda liked Bunsen Space Hospital.
*Changes channel. Wonder if the Monster-Thon's started for Grover's campaign yet. At least those guys know how to get things done, and won't quit until it gets done.

[Luke]

* Hands in "Get Out Of Jail Free" card from Muppet Monopoly. Vibs and Beau are let out of jail and walk free with their reputations intact. *

(glad i finally reached you with Bunsen Space Hospital, we're not all Penguins and smut here at Dr Bunz HQ .... nearly, but not quite!)

[The Count]

*Two more tentacles shoot out and grab hold of Bo and Vibs, while another one places an "Exhibit B" label on the Get Out of Jail Free card.
You're just making it worse for yourselves. *Releases Bo and Vibs back into cell, locks the door, and turns on the TV.
Just sit there and keep quiet... Squid on Patrol's coming up next on the Grover Monster-Thon.

[Luke]

Penguin Announcer: .... And we're back with more Bunzathon. Here's your host ..... Dr Bunz

*canned applause*

Dr Bunz: Thank you fans, voters paid and unpaid - and those who voted in exchange for Piggy pictures or Bill Baretta souvenirs. It's getting very exciting, only one day of voting left and we're tied. So c'mon guys, i'm reaching out to you ..... scroll up and make your mark on the Bunz !

**** goes into celebrity phone room ****

Dr Bunz: Now many Muppets volunteered to answer the phones for us, and we blackmailed the others so lets meet them. Ah hello, Pee Pee

Pepe: Hola lady viewers. This is Pepe. I am a King Prawn hokay? I am looking to meet a lady with good Bunz si? Cos i'm big fans of Bunz hokay? Vote Bunz .... or i will spank you, i will spank your Bunz hokay?

Dr Bunz: Indeed Pee Pee, well THAT will probably get us taken off the air. Ah here's Johnny Fiama and his monkey bodyguard Sal Manilla.

Sal: Hey back off Bunz, no interviews. Johnny Fiama's on the phone to his Mama

Johhny: *into phone* Yes Mama, I got the pasta sauce, and the clean underwear, and Sal's ironed my vest.

Dr Bunz: Moving on .... ah, here's former candidate Miss Piggy. What a lovely suprise ......

Miss Piggy Bonjour Monsiour Honeydew. Moi is hoping the voting is going well for you ....

Dr Bunz: Always room for more votes Miss Piggy. Strange, i thought things were quite hostile between us before. Did you come here for the free buffet?

Miss Piggy: *angry* Enough of the food jokes melonhead. *looks to camera sweetly* Miss Piggy is always happy to appear on tele-vision. Especially when you have provided such a generous clothing budget for moi.

Dr Bunz: We did? *whispers to Penguin aide - It's tax deductible right?* Ah, and here's head of merchandising, Rizzo The Rat.

Rizzo: T-shirts, caps, short shorts, Bunz Thongs - Get em while they're overpriced and the Ebay markets good. Limited stock - The Dr Bunz Party Blowout!

Dr Bunz: Party blowout? Is that like a Party Blower?

Rizzo: Yeah, we're gonna have a party tommorow night, and if you lose this thing it'll be a blowout. Then we'll go get drunk on wine and cheese at the Grover party.

Penguin Announcer: .... and now, here it is, our feature once in a lifetime presentation performance of PENGUIN (SWAN) LAKE. To preserve the dignity of this moment, there will be no flash photography.

* cuts to stage where Penguins are dancing the sugar plum fairy in tutus backed by a Chicken orchestra*

[The Count]

*Recording Penguin Swan Lake on vidcam for uploading to youtube and Muppet Musique later on.
*Holding up sign that reads "Vote for Grover! Vote for Grover, so says Bunsen Honeydew."

[Luke]

* Dr Bunsen has somewhat bitter campaign manager of former candidate evicted via Rentro Security Services and put into Muppet jail for illegal video recording. *

There is no hostility between the Grover/Bunsen camps, and neither of us will stand for campaign sabotage during this monumental broadcast.

[The Count]

So where do you usually go?
*Laugh from the hecklers booth.

Oh come on Bunsen... It's OK to have a recording of the great penguin ballet performance for posterity. Besides, if it was always banned to do so, we wouldn't have such a great tribute like Jim's memorial services to remember him by after his death.
And when did I say it was Scooter who was recording the performance? Eh, just let it go man.

*Goes back home to watch some Batswatch.

[Luke]

Hey dude, you'll have to talk to the Penguins agent Bernie. The Penguins are sacred. However we'll let you out of jail in exchange for Beau and Vibs! lol

[The Count]

Yeah... So's Jim. Besides, my legal team already sprung me. As for Bo and Vibs, they'll get out tomorrow, let 'em chill till then, they don't seem to mind it too much.

[Luke]

VOTES VOTES, WE BOTH NEED YOUR VOTES!

(otherwise the Penguins can't do the victory cha-cha-cha)

[theprawncracker]

Grover: Yes! Today is the last day to vote! Somebody needs to vote so it is not a tie!

[Beauregard]

VOTES VOTES, WE BOTH NEED YOUR VOTES!

(otherwise the Penguins can't do the victory cha-cha-cha)
And there's something we can't do without...

[The Count]

*Back at Muppet Jail.
Officer Octopus: Here's your bread and water. Now you two keep waiting, a call from the newly elected Muppet president will be forthcoming and you'll be set free then. So make yourselves comfortable in there and let the voting process finish.

[redBoobergurl]

Cookie: Uh-oh, Grover is losing. Hey people. Vote Grover. He real good guy. It the right decision.

[The Count]

Count: Vell... I sincerely vish Grover the best of luck in catching up to Dr. Honeydew's lead in the polls.

[Luke]

Penguin Announcer: And now, it's time for another dose of Bunsen Space Hospital. Please remember - VOTE BUNSEN! (Or your preferred candidate)

*Todays episode begins on an island of Space Penguins, where Dr Bunsen and Beaker are treating those who cannot afford private health care. *

Beaker: Meeeep Meeeee Meeep Mee Mee

Dr Bunz: Whats that Beaker? The penguin patient is waving his arms around? Maybe he's flipped !

* Dr Bunz prepares a Penguin nose bandage *

Penguin Patient: Erm Doc, what ya gonna do with that?

Dr Bunz: I'm going to put it on your bill !

2nd Penguin Patient: Dr, after i have this operation will i be able to walk again?

Dr Bunz: Of course you will, don't talk t-waddle.

*scene fades as an announcers voice emerges from nowhere*

Penguin Announcer: Tune in next season for more corny jokes about foot corns in Bunz In Spaaaaaaaaaace (Hospital).

*thunderous applause*

[theprawncracker]

Grover: *falls over* *waves white flag* You doctor Honeydew, have won! I am so tired!

[Beauregard]

Beau: *rushes Bunsen to the white house via taxi service, shattering the front door and screeching to a stop in the oval office* Did you want me to stop, or what?

I'll leave this thread open for the discussion of the election game and for cabinet announcements and such to resume.

[MuppetsRule]

Hhhhmmmm . . . just yesterday this election was tied. And now today Dr. Bunsen wins in a landslide? I suspect election fraud. I demand a recount. There must be a hanging chad somewhere! Where's Beaker? I think I know how he did it, too. He had the steel rabbit pose as a voting machine. Simply un-American. :attitude:

[Teheheman]

Hanging Chad? I think he's hanging from that flag pole to symbolize how much he loves America. He he he, Crazy cuban immigrant.

Beaker: What I do is my business. Not that I did anything, but if I did, you wouldn't be able to prove it. I'm a scientist, remember? That means I'm smart.

[Luke]

And now today Dr. Bunsen wins in a landslide?

President Bunz: WHOA! There was a landslide? I wondered why everything looked upside down this morning. .... and there i was thinking i just had too much of that alcee-hol at the victory party.

..... cabinet announcements - Super Moderator Foz now becomes Supreme Moderator Foz, Homer Simpson is going to be in charge of nuclear safety. Pepe gets his own dating show. All money in Muppetland will now show Dr Bunz posing with a penguin in lederhosen. That is all!
