There are a few segments that I recall seeing, maybe once each, but haven't seen them in a long time, and also haven't seen any info on Muppet Wiki. Does anybody remember them?

One of them is a segment where a couple is driving, and the car breaks down, and Maria comes by with a gas can to refill the gas tank. I recall Maria wearing a renchcoat and mayeb a aht in thats cene.

Another scene takes place at the fix-it shop, and may or may not have been part of a plot. But maria shows Telly that if you listen to a seashell you can hear the ocean. However, whenever Telly listens, a Honker appears behind him and honks, and all Telly hears is the honk (Maria isn't there in those instances).

And yet anothe rinvovles Gordon, wearign a magicians hat and holding a magic wand. Gordon makes himself disapear, and his vocie is heard saying "Oops!" I recall this sketch lasting only a few seconds.

And one final one took place at Finders Keepers. Ir ecall seeing it in a season 25 episode. But Zoe finds a magic lamp at finders keepers and frees a genie. Zoe likes the way the genie popped out of the lamp, and her first wish is for him to pop out again, which teh genie doens't want to do, as he has a headache. Aftert hat, Zoe wishes for him to pop aagin, though the genie doesn't want to. After the secodn time, the genie remarks that he wishes his headache would go away, and Zoe says "Me, too". And with that, the ehadache is gone, and he's willing to pop out again. I rememebr Gina being in that sketch as well.

Well, I just found out that it was part of a fantasy sequence in episode 2900.
