Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

[The Count]

Not at all. Already had dinner, shows are done for the night... Just hangin' here at the forums.

Kelly (stands): Well, it was nice talking to you, Ed. Hope that PM helped with your list. If you need anything, you know where to find me.

Cotterpin: Which means we're going to bed. THAT much I've learned already. And if you ever need some construction projects done ... I'm sure we Doozers will be more than happy to assist you. This place is HUMONGOUS! It'd take us a couple of generations to fill up this place with stuff!

 

[The Count]

*Getting up and headed for bed. Thanks Kelly, and we'll let you know if we need any work done Cotterpin.

Kelly (watching TV in the common room with Cotterpin): I love this episode.

Cotterpin: Um ... question. How can a creature be half bear, half man, and half pig? That's 150%.

Kelly (snickers): The joke is that he's bad at math. I wonder if Ed's heard of ManBearPig. The whole concept is just TOO hilarious.

Cotterpin: ... The WEIRD thing is ... I can't tell, based on where we're living, if this creature is plausible or not.

Kelly (falls onto the floor, laughing)

 

[The Count]

Corpse I have. Huge SP fan here... You should get the ImaginationLand trilogy on DVD. *Off to watch RPM.

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (is so bored looking at the ceiling in the common room): So, what do YOU want to do?

Cotterpin (also staring at the ceiling): I dunno. No construction projects today. What did YOU want to do?

Kelly (shrugs): Dunno. What do YOU want to do?

 

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Storyteller: (singing) Ah, how I laugh to see myself in the mirror...how I laugh to see how beautiful I am...
Beige: (muttering) Laughing is right.
Scooter: Isn't that the song Bianca Castafiore keeps singing in the Adventures of Tintin?
Nora: It is. It's Marguerite's jewel aria from Gounod's "Faust."
Erin: Herge had an aunt who loved opera...but he himself didn't like it. So that's where Castafiore came from.
Storyteller: His loss...opera is a wonderful, majestic art form, and so romantic...
Beige: Opera. That's where a guy gets stabbed in the back, and he's able to belt out one last song before he bites it.
Scooter: And when the soprano runs on stage with her hair down, you know she's lost her marbles.
Nora: And it's practically mandatory for the soprano to lose her marbles at least once, though occasionally the tenor loses his marbles too.
Erin: And don't sit in the front row during a Wagner opera, 'cause the Valkyrie just might pop a rivet off her armor on that high C.

Kelly (is sitting upside down on the sofa): We should go do something, Cotterpin.

Cotterpin (lying on the sofa seat): Why? I think I'm almost finished counting the specks on the ceil -- now I've lost count!

Kelly (smiles): Sorry! I got up to 1,300 myself.

Cotterpin: Can I go back to Doozer Dome now? I thought Doozers could be boring sometimes, but watching Doozer glue dry is more interesting than this place.

Kelly (carefully brings Cotterpin to the floor next to her scooter): There ya go. Have fun. *watches Cotterpin screech out of the common room* Sigh ... *begins to count the specks on the ceiling again*

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (quietly goes to Digit's room and leaves a rose at the door)

Cotterpin (on Kelly's shoulder): Why are you doing this again?

Kelly (whispering): I had a dream that I was Olivia Newton-John and Digit was John Travolta and we sang "You're the One That I Want". *blushes, smiles* It was rather enjoyable. *takes Cotterpin back to room 2*

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (carrying Cotterpin around the Dorms): Shut up.

Cotterpin: But your homework's due tonight!

Kelly: At 11. I've still got plenty of time. I wanna see if there's anything for lunch in the common room. *looks in cabinets* Ooh, peanut butter! *sets Cotterpin down on the counter to make herself a sandwich*
