The New Gig

[The Count]

Yes. The sixth episode I believe. Tony and Kermit did an opening number called "Firefly", where Spamela had a smoking hot dress... Literally!
And the episode revolved around Johnny being too nervous to meet his lifelong idol, Mr. Bennett. Then Sal and Tony came up with a plan to have Johnny and the real Tony meet, using Johnny's lifelike Tony Bennet automaton.
You should try to get it on tape from some of the traders here on the boards.

Meanwhile it was 8 at night. Back in the 4th floor of the building, the Electric Mayhem were preparing to play a few songs for a crowd of people. The band was in their dressing room getting ready.

"Like, I can't believe it. We're about to go on stage. I'm so excited and I think I'm about to tell another one of those stories that happened to me during my early years in life." Jance said.

Lips grabbed Janice by the shirt.

"For god sake, please, stop with those annoying stories. I'm begging you!" Lips desperately said to Janice.

By that point Lips had fell to his knees begging Janice not to say anything else. The rest of the band just looked at Lips, shaking their heads. Zoot came running to the dressing room.

"Oh my, oh my. Lions, and tigers, and penguins, and the upper east side of Montana!" Zoot said.

"Zoot, you're not making any sense man. Just be slow, and think, and then speak, like what I've been telling you for the last 23 years. What happened?" Floyd asked.

"Apples are red, people think Elvis is still alive, and..." Zoot said but then stopped.

Zoot tried to talk some more but stopped and started to stare at the ceiling. Everybody looked at the ceiling to see what was going on and then after they saw nothing, they turned back to Zoot.

"Does anybody know if Zoot had his six hour nap today?" questioned Dr. Teeth.

"Uh, I think he used that time after practice to watch old episodes of the Love Connection on the Game Show network." Floyd said.

"His one weakness. He loves that show. How in the world did anybody know that Zoot liked Love Connection besides us. Zoot's not even allowed to watch televesion anymore after he got upset and tried to break the television with his saxaphone when that lady choosed contestent number 3 instead of number 2 back in an episode in 1986." Dr. Teeth said.

"I think I got the trick to get Zoot back to reality, if there is anything such in Zoots world." said Floyd.

Floyd grabbed a picture from his coat pocket and showed it to Zoot. Zoot woke up in a second.

"Like how'd you get him to wake up, hun?" Janice questioned.

'I showed a picture of Piggy trying to play a saxaphone. That brings chills down Zoots spine." Floyd said.

"Okay, now that you're back with us, what happened?" said Dr. Teeth.

"The whole entire audience is packed. There is not any empty seats." Zoot said.

"Woah, that never happened back in the Muppet Theater." said Lips.

Bryan and Ryan came walking into the dressing room.

"Guys, and gal, it's time for you to get to the stage." said Bryan.

Ryan looked at Zoot, surprised that he was functioning fine, and Ryan then poked at Bryan which caused Bryan to look at Zoot. Bryan was also surprised. Animal was the only one from the band that noticed Bryan and Ryan acting strange.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!" yelled Animal who was looking at Bryan and Ryan.

"What's with your drummer?" questioned Bryan.

"Ya, he seems to not like us that well." said Ryan.

"Animal, how many times do I have to tell you, yell and attack Piggy and not anybody else." Floyd commanded.

"Soooorrrreeeeeeee." said Animal.

The band headed out the door and was walking to the stage. Bryan and Ryan looked at the band from the dressing room door.

"I thought you said that plan to get the saxaphone player messed up was going to work." questioned Ryan.

"I, I thought it was." said Bryan.

"Mr. Zwellen isn't going to like this." said Ryan.

And with that, we go to the band. The stage curtains open to reveal the Electric Mayhem. Ed Zwellen was near the stage and couldn't believe that Zoot was with the band. The band plays "We're an American Band" by Grand Funk Railroad." Zoot and Lips plays their saxaphone and trumpet respectively while Animal is on the drums. There is an announcer on the left hand side of the audience point of view of the stage.

"And now, please welcome Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem." the announcer said.

"On the road for forty days,
Last night in little rock put me in a haze.
Sweet, sweet connie -- doin' her act,
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact." Dr. Teeth sang.

"Up all night with freddy king,
I got to tell you poker's his thing.
A-booze 'n ladies keep me right,
As long as we can make it to the show tonight." Floyd sang.

"We're an american band.
We're an american band.
We're coming to your town, we'll help you party it down.
We're an american band." sang Dr. Teeth, Floyd, and Janice.

"Four young chaquitas in omaha,
Was waitin' for the band to return from the show.
Feelin' good, feelin' right, it's saturday night,
The hotel detective -- he was out-a-sight." sang Janice.

"Now, these fine ladies, they had a plan,
They was out to meet the boys in the band.
They said, "come on, dudes, let's get it on,"
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down." sang Dr. Teeth.

"We're an american band.
We're an american band.
We're coming to your town, we'll help you party it down.
We're an american band." sang Dr. Teeth, Floyd, Janice.

"We're an american band.
We're an american band.
We're coming to your town, we'll help you party it down.
We're an american band." sang Dr. Teeth, Floyd, Janice.

Floyd and Janice then start to play their guitars with a guitar solo.

"We're an american band.
We're an american band.
We're coming to your town, we'll help you party it down.
We're an american band." sang Dr. Teeth, Floyd, Janice.

"We're an american band.
We're an american band.
We're coming to your town, we'll help you party it down.
We're an american band." sang Dr. Teeth, Floyd, Janice.

The song ends and the audience goes wild with applause. The band takes a bow.

"Alright, that's nice. Now what I would like to do is turn this over to the bass player, Sgt. Floyd Pepper, who is going to lead us in our next song." Dr. Teeth said.

"Alright, this groovy piece is by Neil Diamind." Floyd said.

The band play "Thank the Lord for the Night Time" by Neil Diamond. Zoot is now playing the tambourine along with Janice while Floyd plays the bass guitar and Lips plays the Trumpet.

"Day time turns me off
And I don't mean maybe
Nine to five ain't taking me
Where I'm bound
When it's done
I'd run out to see my baby
We get grooving
When the sun goes down." sang Floyd.

"Thank the lord for the night time
Do forget the day
A day of up-uptight time
Baby chase it away
And it's a time to groove
I thank the lord for the night time
I thank the lord for you." sang Floyd and Janice.

A beat comes and Janice and Zoot shake their tambourines while Floyd plays his guitar. Janice bounces her head to the beat and lets her hair fly around.

"I'll talk about plans
Now baby
I got plenty
But, nothing ever seems to turn out the way it should
Talk about money
Girl, well I ain't got any
Seems like just one time
I'm feeling good." sang Zoot.

"Thank the lord for the night time
Forget the day
day of up-uptight time
Baby chase it away
I get relaxation
And it's a time to groove
I thank the lord for the night time
I thank the lord for you." sang Floyd, Zoot, and Janice.

A beat and Lips plays his trumpet, Dr. Teeth plays the piano, Janice and Zoot shake their tambourines, and Floyd plays his guitar while Animal is still on the drums.

"Seems like just one time
I'm feeling good" sang Zoot and Janice.

"Thank the lord for the night time
Do forget the day
A day of up-uptight time
Baby chase it away
I get relaxation
And it's a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you." sang Floyd.

And with that, Zoot grabs his saxaphone, spins it around and starts playing it while Lips continues to play the trumpet. Janice continues to shake the tambourine and bounce her head back and forth from side to side jamming to the song.

The audience clapped and cheered and whistled. The band took another bow.

After the concert the band walks into their dressing room all excited from their performance and no boos or remarks from Statler and Waldorf. They felt great.

Meanwhile, in Zwellens office, Zwellen, Bryan, Ryan are sitting and discussing the concenrt that took place a few hours ago.

'Did you see the audience? They went wild." said Bryan.

"I can't believe the audience liked the Electric Mayhem. They're certaily more popular than they were when they were playing for Kermit." said Ryan.

Zwellen got out of his chair and looked out the window that overlooked the city. The city was lit up with lights everywhere, kind of like Las Vegas.

"Clearly this band is more dangerous than I thought. No matter, they will soon divide and I will make the band mine and they will do what I say. said a devious Ed Zwellen.

[Beauregard]

Wow. This story just gets better and better. Everyone is acting totally groovy, and it's great to see deeper into the charcters of the 'lecky Mayhem. Such as Zoot needing 6 hours of sleep, and the game shows, and...wow. Really cool.

 

[TogetherAgain]

"Lions, and tigers, and penguins, and the upper east side of Montana." I love it! (how did you know I was about to nag for more story? oh that reminds me-) I want more!

 

[ryhoyarbie]

Meanwhile back in the Muppet Theater, Kermit and company were doing there show with speical guest star Joan Allen, but the show was not going well. Fozzie, Lew Zealand, Robin, Beauregard, Annie Sue, Joan Allen and some other muppet what nots were walking from the stage dressed in western style clothes.

"Kermit, when I requested to do the Arabian number dance, I thought I would be dancing as a Arabian dancer, not what I have on now." Joan Allen complained.

"I'm sorry Joan, but we couldn't find the Arabian costumes so we had to use those costumes you and the others have on right now." Kermit explained to Joan.

"I hardly call these costumes. I never thought I would dress as a cowboy dancing to cowboy music while the background setting was actually set in an Arabian desert." Joan Allen complained.

"I don't think anybody noticed." Kermit said, trying to ease Joan Allen's mood.

"Those two old guys who make fun of you all the time noticed it, and laughed at me the whole time too." Joan Allen said. My career in showbizness is ruined.

"Hey miss, you should have thought of that before you came here. Everybody hits rock bottom after they come on this show." Bearegard said.

"Thanks Beau." Kermit said sarcastically. "Now go make yourself useful by getting the next number ready."

Beauregard walked away to get the next number ready.

"Don't mind Statler and Waldorf, they make fun of everybody, including me." Fozzie said.

"That reminds me, you're on next Fozzie." Kermit said.

"Oh no, I have to face those two again. It was bad enough with that last number when they laughed before we even sang the song but to go out there again?!" Fozzie said, worrying what would happen to him.

"You can take my boomerang fish with you and throw the fish at them if they get out of hand." Lew Zealand said. "Just watch."

Lew Zeland through some fish but instead of going back to Lew, they went to Joan Allen and hit her in the head. Joan Allen was touching her head.

"Oops, sorry!" Lew Zeland said trying to apoligize.

"I got to lay down somewhere. Being on this show is driving me crazy." said Joan Allen.

"Here, I'll escort you to your dressing room, Mrs. Allen." Robin said trying to be thoughtful.

Robin and Joan walked off. Kermit went on stage to introduce Fozzie.

"And now ladies and gentlemen, it's time for that furry and funny bear, Fozzie bear! Yaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!" Kermit enthusistatically said.

Fozzie came running to the stage.

"Hi ya, hi ya, hi ya! How Do you catch a unique rabbit? Unique up on it!" Wocka Wocka! Fozzie said.

"Boooooo!!!!!!!" The audience yelled.

"Hey I got more. Why do gorillas have big nostrils? Because they have big fingers!" Fozzie said, trying to get a few more laughs in.

"And I thought the cowboy dance was horrible." Statler said.

"That wasn't supposed to be a cowboy dance. I think it was supposed to be an Arabian dance. Didn't you catch the background?" Waldorf said.

"Who cares. All I know is that these jokes are horrible. I wish I didn't bring my hearing aid tonight." Statler said.

"That makes two of us." Waldorf chimed in.

"Dohohohohohoho!" laughed the two old men.

"Hey bear, why don't you get off the stage before you make a fool out of yourself." Statler said.

"Too late for that!" Waldorf said.

"Dohohohohoho!!...." The two men continued to laugh.

Statler puts his hands together and looks at the ceiling.

"What are you doing?" Waldorf questioned.

"Praying to God to take Fozzie off the stage." Statler said.

"Dohohohohohoho..." Both two continued to laugh.

Annie Sue and Kermit looked at Fozzie being thrashed by Statler and Waldorfs jokes from the backstage.

"They're really getting Fozzie tonight." Annie Sue said.

"I can't believe I'm saying this but......I want to listen to that band with the crazy drummer." Statler said.

Waldorf put his hands together and looked at the ceiling.

"What are you doing?" Statler said.

"Asking God to give you forgiveness on what you just said." Waldorf said.

"Dohohohohohohohoho......" Both men laughed.

Kermit came walking to the stage. He moved in front of Fozzie.

"We don't have the band anymore." Kermit said.

"The band quit?" said Waldorf.

'Better late than never!" Statler said.

"Dohohohoho........" The two men continued to laugh.

"Here's a thought, maybe if we pray, we can have the whole show close down." Waldorf said.

"It would take a miracle to get that to happen." Statler said.

"Dohohohohohohoho...." The two men continued to put out as many jokes and remarks to Kermit and company.

The men continued to laugh and Kermit grabbed Fozzie and both walked off the stage. Kermit sighed and looked down. He was sinking deeper into depression. Fozzie noticed this and was trying to figure out what to do.

<sigh> I feel so bad for them. Very well written, ryan. How do you always seem to know when I'm about to nag for more story? Anyways, great job, and looking for more soon!

 

[ryhoyarbie]

The next morning, the Electric Mayhem woke up from their room in the hotel where Ed Zwellens office was and where the Electric Mayhem played. The building was that big. There room was really big too. It had four rooms and two king sized bed and two smaller beds. It also had a regular sized kitchen and a gigantic view of the city. The room had the color of a cream color or light brown to a peach color. The band felt really good. Good enough to do sing a song they would have normally done back in the Muppet boarding house, that is, if they were still there. They sang but not played "Then The Morning Comes" by Smash Mouth.

"Good morning." The alarm clock said trying to greet the band.

"Paint the town
Take a bow
Thank everybody
You're gonna do it again
You are the few, the proud
You are the antibody
Mind soul, and zen." sang Floyd

"And the world's a stage." sang Floyd.

"And the world's a faze." sang Dr. Teeth.

"And the end is near." sang Floyd

"So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna do it again." sang Floyd.

"The way the you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling." sang Floyd and Janice, who was dancing and bopping her head from side to side letting her hair fly.

"Then the morning come." sang Floyd.

"Take your knocks
Shake them off
Duck everybody
You're gonna take them again
You are you foe
Your friend
You are the paparazzi
You are the tragedian." sang Lips

"And the world's a craze." sang Lips.

"And the world's a faze." shouted Animal.

"And the end is near." sang Lips.

"So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna do it again." sang Dr. Teeth.

"The way the you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
And when it comes it moves so slow
Kinda like it's saying I told you so
Looking back before she goes
Tomorrow's gonna hurt." sang Zoot and Floyd who were dancing and boppin gtheir heads like Janice from side to side.

There was a break from the lyrics of the song and everybody started to dance and move around the entire room.

"And the world's a stage." sang Floyd.

"And the world's faze." sang Dr. Teeth.

"And the end is near." sang Floyd.

"So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody." sang Janice.

"It's just the way that you walk." sang Zoot.

"It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
Then the morning comes." sang everybody who were by that point on the beds and tables dancing and partying.

After the song, they got a phone call to meet in Zwellens office on the double. The Mayhem band got dressed and went to the floor where the office was and were walking to the doors to the office. The hallway was decorated with various plants and paintings. The color of the carpet was a redish brown with the color of the walls being dark red. There were a lights around the walls.

"I wonder what Mr. Zwellen wants this early in the morning." said Dr. Teeth.

"Maybe he's going to congradulate us." Floyd said.

"All I know is I need some coffee. I can't function this early." Zoot exclaimed.

"You need coffee after we sang that song and got are groove on." Dr. Teeth asked.

"Ya I need my coffee. Got to function properly." Zoot answered back.

"Like you never function during any time of the day. You just zone out into outer space." Janice said to Zoot.

"Don't get me talking about space. You know as well as I know the aliens are going to land." Zoot said.

"Right and Piggy and Kermit are actually married." Lips chimed in. "It was a movie, it was suppose to be for show, not for real."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh..." Animal yelled.

"Uh oh, I don't think Animal is doing good. Looks like he might go crazy." Lips said.

"Maybe he needs some coffee." Zoot said.

"We tried that one time. Animal was up til 4 in the morning banging on the drums. Nobody got sleep that night." Floyd said.

"I did. Best sleep of my life." Zoot said.

"That's because nothing wakes you up man." Floyd said. You even slept through that one time when the pig tried to sing her version of that opera song at the Muppet theater one night. Anybody remember the title of the song?"

"Like, it was crap, fer sure." Janice said.

The band started to laugh. They made it to the doors to Zwellens office where they were gretted by Bryan and Ryan.

"Ahhhh!!!!!! Bad man, bad man." shouted Animal.

Ryan went over to Animal and looked at him face to face.

"We're not bad men. I think you just need to let go of your....." Ryan said before being interrupted.

"Bad man!!!" Animal shouted in Ryans face.

Ryan was covered in some spit but managed to keep his cool and stepped back. He looked at Bryan and signaled him to open the door for the band to see Ed Zwellen.

The band went into the office. They saw Zwellen talking on the phone. he quickly finished, hung up the phone, and turned to the band.

"Lady, and gentlemen, and whatever your drummer is, you did great last night." Zwellen exclaimed.

The band looked at each other with grins. They were happy.

"Nothing to it but to do it." Floyd said.

"Fer sure." Janice chimed in.

"Absolutely positively. It was nice." said Dr. Teeth.

"Now to move on to the next order of business. Take a look at this." said Zwellen.

He grabbed his computer monitor and turned it around for the band to see. it showed a picture of a limousine, a very nice one at that that was white.

"This is going to transport you to different places around town." said Zwellen.

"What about our bus?" questioned Dr. Teeth.

Zwellen hit a key and the picture in the monitor switched from a limousine to the Electric Mayhem bus. It was parked in a parking garage along with the limousine.

"We'll keep it there for safe keeping. But since you all are under the Cartier record lable now, it's time to ride with some style. You all are going to be living the good life now, and this is it." said Zwellen. Just give me your keys and I'll keep them here in storage.

"Sounds totally groovy man." said Zoot.

Dr. Teeth gave Zwellen the keys since he thought the idea was good and solid.

"Now to the next order of business. How would you all feel about doing a music video?" asked Zwellen.

The band started jumping for joy. Clearly, they were excited.

'Like we've never been in a video before." said Janice.

"This is going to be great." said Lips.

"Great, great! Music video!" exclaimed Animal.

"We've got just the song we want to sing in the video." said Dr. teeth.

"Really, what a coincidence, so do I." said Zwellen. I was thinking about letting you all sing "In the Navy."

"That song by The Village People?" said Floyd.

Ed Zwellen nodded to Floyd.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I don't do Village People songs. We don't do them. They're just a laughable group." said Floyd.

"Ya, man, and they dress in those crazy outfits too." added Zoot.

"How is that different from what you all are wearing right now?" said Zwellen. Look, your band leader is dressed up as somebody who looks like he sells drugs or hookers for a living. The bass player is dresed up as somebody from the Beatles. You're drummer looks like somebody from a grunge band, with that metal collar and all. The guitar player looks like a hippie from the 60s, with her haird and all."

"Rully. Thanks for pointing that out. I love my hair." said Janice who was shaking it every where.

"The trumpet player looks like a Budest priest and you Mr. Zoot look like a homeless guy, with the raggy shirt and hat you're wearing." continued Zwellen.

The band looked at each other with a "who cares look." They liked the way they looked.

'So I don't see how dressing up as The Village People is worse than the clothes you all have on right now." added Zwellen. "Go down to the fourth floor. We keep a variety of costumes in storage. Somebody will be down there to help you get your costumes for the music video. Now go."

"We'll do it your way then." said Dr. teeth.

"That's good since I've scratched your back a few times so far." said Zwellen.

"Nobody has scratched my back today, or yesterday, or the day before. And another"...Zoot said before being interrupted by Lips.

"It's a figure of speech." said Lips.

Zoot thinks for a moment. Suddenly the light came on in his head....for a change.

"Oh ya, now I get it." said Zoot.

And with that, the band walked out of Zwellens office and past the hallway to get to the elavtor.

Zwellen signalled Bryan and Ryan to come to him as soon as the band was gone.

"I want you two to get rid of the bus of theirs. I don't care how either." said Zwellen.

Zwellen gave the keys to Bryan and Ryan and they walked out, ready to the job of getting rid of the Electic Mayhem bus.

Oh dear, it looks like there's a whole lot of trouble ahead. But I love this chapter! Just imagining Animal on coffee- what a scary thought! Keep it coming, this is great!

 

[ryhoyarbie]

Several days later back at the theater, there was a new show, however, there wasn't a guest star. Not every show needed a guest star. The act that was out on stage at the moment was Sweetums and Robin singing "You got a friend in me" that was done by Randy Newman when he did that song for Toy Story. The song was over and everybody clapped. There were a lot of people in the audience, although there were still several seats empty. Sweetums and Robin went back stage after the number.

"Alright guys, way to go." Kermit said, trying to sound as thrilled as possible. However, his depression was getting worse. He had been skipping a lot of rehersals and stoped giving meetings after the show.

"Thanks Kermit and thank you pal, you know how to hit the right note to get the audience cheering for you." Sweetums said politely.

"Thanks Sweetums. You were great out there too." Robin replied, also giving his big harry friend a compliment.

Sweetums and Robin walked away from Kermit. Kermit looked at his notes to see who was on next. Then Gonzo came running to Kermit. Kermit then realized that Gonzo was the next act.

"Kermit, I got a new act that's going to bigger than Russell Crowe's attitude, Tom Cruise's ego, and Rosie O'Donnell's waist line! Gonzo entusiastically said.

"That's great Gonzo. Go knock your socks off." Kermit said reading a newspaper. He didn't bother to look at Gonzo. He was uninterested at what the blue alien/weirdo was going to do.

Gonzo looked at Kermit and then shook his head. Usually Kermit would ask him what he's going to do, but not tonight. Gonzo saw the look of sadness in Kermit's eyes. He thought Kermit might start crying. Gonzo and the others knew that Kermit was still depressed over the Electric Mayhem quitting, but he and the rest of the Muppets were trying to move on. Kermit obviously had not. Gonzo headed to the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen. I'm about to do one of my craziest stunts ever. Behold this television set. I will turn on this television set and watch the show on MTV called the Osbornes where I will try to interpret what Ozzie Osborne is trying to say!" Gonzo said as he clicked the television set on.

"The blue, big nosed freak is going to watch television as part of his act. He really is running out of ideas." Statler commented.

"Have you ever heard Ozzie Osborne speak? Even with my hearing aid turned up full blast I can't even understand what the heck he's saying." Waldorf said.

Both the two old men and the audience watched Gonzo as he watched the Osborne show. They and the audience were now getting tired of Gonzo's act. Waldorf brought out a television and started to watch it.

"Hey, you brought a tv with you." Statler said.

"Hey, your eye sight isn't as bad as I thought it would be." Waldorf sarcastically said.

Statler made a scrunched face at Waldorf.

Waldorf started flipping channels until they came to one where it showed the Electric Mayhem singing "In The Navy."

"Hey Stater, get a look at this." Waldorf said.

Statler looked at the television and watched the Electric Mayhem play the song dressed up as the Village People. Both old men started to laugh.

By now the audience got bored from Gonzo's act and started booing him. Kermit didn't notice as he was still reading the newspaper. Rizzo, Bobo the bear, Bean bunny, and Pepe noticed Kermit and noticed Gonzo was still doing his act. All four opted to get Gonzo off the stage.

Bobo grabbed Gonzo while the other three looked at Gonzo and then the audience. The audience started cheering now that Gonzo was getting off the stage.

"Hey, I was about to interpret Ozzie Osborne! Put me back!" Gonzo said, trying to get away from Bobo who was carying Gonzo.

"Gonzo, can you interpret boredom because that's what you were doing to the audience." Rizzo said.

"Those Osbornes aren't cute, especially that daughter, Kelly. Yuck!!" Bean replied.

"Clearly not my kind of woman. She didn't even make it in Pepe's 1000 hotest celebrity women." Pepe said.

"Please tell me Cindy Crawford got in there. We had something going on in Muppets Tonight." Bobo recalled still carrying Gonzo to the back stage.

"You and Cindy had something going on? Unbelievable okay." Pepe remarked.

"I find that hard to believe too. Liars aren't cute and I think you're lying to us." Bean said.

"Bahhh. I don't have to porve anything to you guys, just my love and devotion to Cindy." Bobo said.

"I think I'm going to be sick." commented Rizzo.

They got Gonzo to the back stage to see Kermit still reading the newspaper. Fozzie and Scooter were looking at Kermit and then at Gonzo. All couldn't believe that Kermit was still reading the newspaper and not paying any attention to the show.

"Hey, turn to channel 12." yelled Waldorf from the audience who was trying to get the Muppets attention.

Scooter grabbed a tv and placed it on top of Kermits desk where he had been reading the newspaper. He then turned to channle 12 to see what Statler and Waldorf were laughing at. Suddenly they saw the Electric Mayhem. Everybody from Kermit to Fozzie, Scooter, Gonzo, Rizzo, Bean, Pepe, and Bobo were surprised to the their fomrer band on the television. All six members were on a ship signing "In The Navy." Dr. Teeth was dressed as the construction worker. Janice was dressed as the Native American with paint around her face. Lips was dressed as the cowboy. Floyd was dressed as the biker. Animal was dressed as navy officer. Zoot was dressed as the police officer.

Kermit and the gang couldn't believe what they were seeing. It seemed their former friends were now in the big time, with their music video out. That would increae their popularity with the public, even more than what Kermit and the rest of the Muppet gang had if they continued to climb upward in the stardom ladder.

[TogetherAgain]

I love Gonzo's line about how big his act in. Heck, I love his act! And I love the conversation between Pepe, Bobo, Bean, and Rizzo. It's great! And poor Kermit, not even paying attention to the show... Very well written, and I can't wait to see more!
