*Newsie is attracted to sounds of a political rant, heads for Sam*

Ahem! Mr Eagle. I am conducting a survey of all the HV residents. What Muppet-related issue would you most want addressed by the White House this coming year?

*meanwhile, a pink thing and a blue thing materialize in Apt 2*
Blue: Wabbawabbawabba...mm. Sniff, sniff. Foood. Food. Yip yip yip food.
Pink: Foood, yipyipyipyip uh huh.
*they head for clothes washer where Chef's socks are churning in soapy water*
Pink: Hea-vy! Ungh. Yip yip. Ungh.
*together, using all twenty-seven tentacles, they manage to lift the washer lid and start scooping out socks*
Pink: Om nom nom nom!
Blue: Chew-y. Nom. Nom nom.

*hurries after the muffled Muppets* Er, excuse me! Come on! Serious newsman here! Could all of you please just give me your answer to my question?

Rhonda *catching up to him* I don't think they have any interest in current events, sunshine.

Well they should! This stuff affects everyone, felted or not!

Rhonda: Calm down. Here, have a gummi heart.

A wha-- *Rhonda pops a candy in his mouth* Umf...um...thanks. Whew...this...this is a little, er, spicy...

Rhonda : *reads box label* Whoops...that one was the gummi red hots...

*blows out a tongue of fire* WHOOOO!

Rhonda *sullenly viewing the hall potted palm on fire* Great. Ya hadda do that. It'll probably set off the -- *Alarm sounds, water gushes down* -- sprinkler system...ack! My perm! *dashes for cover*

*sigh* Doesn't anyone here want to be a sound bite for the broadcast tonight? Anyone?

*Martians are hanging upside down from rafter in Apt 1*
Blue: Me-yow. Yip.Yip yip.
Pink: Cat nice. Yip yip yip uh huh.
Blue: Cat...eat? *offers a half-eaten bit of Chef's sock to Batty*

*meanwhile, roaming the halls...*

I can't believe this! Is NO ONE here concerned what the election could mean for Muppets?

Rhonda: Newsie...you're overreacting. I very much doubt any of the candidates care either way about us.

And you don't think that's worrisome?? What if an anti-felted Congress votes to revoke our right to unlimited healthcare?

Rhonda: I can see how that would be a problem for some of us. Namely YOU.

Funny. *scowls* Come on, rat, help me out here!

Rhonda: Fine. *deep breath* Okay...I would like to see our government hand out more free cheese, whether we have a hundred offspring or not. I hope whomever gets elected, they keep in mind that not everyone is able to reach public water fountains! We need more accessibility!

Thank you. I'm going to see if that robot guy will consent to an interview. He seems politically up-to-date, at least.

Rhonda: Hurry it up. I wanna go watch "Alcatraz." And that news show you like is on tonight.

I'm hoping to be asked to be a special correspondent.

Rhonda: You? On that show? *blinks* WHY?

Er...ahem...well...they don't show enough Muppet news!

Rhonda: Lemme get this straight. You want to go network?

Naturally!

Rhonda: ...so millions of people can see stuff whacking you as opposed to thousands?

Ye---er...

Rhonda: You haven't thought this through, have you?

Linda Mezzo: Hey, everyone. Heh... so... wassup, Teeth? S'been a while since we last talked. :3

Annie Sue: ... wondering why everyone's hugging? o.o

Link Hogthrob: *hugs Annie Sue* My Teddy Bear... <3

Annie Sue: *hugging Link* Oh... <3

Link Hogthrob: Now, wouldn't you mind doin' the laundry for me once we get home?

Annie Sue: Well--

Link Hogthrob: Now, now. Be a dear, Annie Sue. I asked you, because I love you.

Annie Sue: That's how you want to be loved; you're the number one priority. Hmmph! *crosses arms*

Link Hogthrob: *smirks smugly* That's right. *whips hair back* <3

*checking calendar* Whoops...did you realize we missed Wayne and Wanda's birthday, guys?

Rhonda: *not looking up from an issue of Vogue Rodent* Who?

We did? Owch. Poor Wanda. Why don't we truck out to one of the bakeries and get her something? Do you think she'd like a fancy cupcake?

Rhonda: I'm sorry, did you just say cupcake? I'm in.

Good idea. I'll announce it on the news tonight!

(the roomies head out to find a suitable birthday cupcake for Wanda...no one mentions Wayne again)

Ernie: That's okay Ellie...

Ellie: *cuts Ernie off* Its okay? I was busy filling my head with history and English and boring midterm stuff and it made me miss your birthday! Bert, Susie, did you two give Ernie gifts?

Bert&Susie: *nod yes*

Ellie: May I ask what?

Susie: I got Ernie a note-pad that looks like a saxophone with a brand new pen! You never know when you'll need to jot something down! *shows her own notepad and smiles wide*

Bert: And I got Ernie a little boat for Rubber Duckie.

Ellie: That's cool guys...aw, well, its not much Ernie, but you can have this scarf! *gives Ernie a royal blue scarf*

Ernie: Thank you Ellie! It doesn't matter, its the thought that counts!

Ellie: *smiles* Well, at least you guys had a little party while I was gone!

 

[LinkiePie<3]

Angie: *barges in* HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, ERNIE! *hugs Ernie*

Johnny Fiama: Happy Birthday, kid. This gift 'ere is from Sal, Linda, an' I. *gives Ernie a well-wrapped box; inside is a brand new Rubber Duckie saxophone strap, with a little handmade Rubber Duckie carrier pocket sewn on*

Sal Minella: Since you're so attached to that duck, we thought it'd be accurate ta buy ya' that. Now, Rubber Duckie will be close by ya' when you play your gigs. Happy Birthday, kid. Enjoy. :3

Angie: *gives Ernie a Rubber Duckie candy necklace*

Johnny Fiama: Shall I sing you your Birthday song, Ernie-Baby? ;D

 

[DramaQueenMokey]

Susie: Yes Mr. Fiama sing to me...I mean Ernie..ahem. *is blushing, she just really wants to hear Johnny sing*

Bert: Nice of everyone to drop in.

Ellie: Figured you guys would be used to that sort of thing by now.

Bert: It's not that simple Ellie.

Ellie: I s'pose not.
