Thank you.

- They like it. - They love it.

They're still applauding. Kermie, you have to go out and take a bow.

Kermit! Kermit! Kermit!

Go.

Yeah.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you. I really don't know what to say, except we're really glad...

...you liked Manhattan Melodies. We all worked hard...

...to make it the best Senior Variety Show ever.

Hey, Kermit. Next time we'll see you on Broadway.

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

That's a great idea.

Why don't we take Manhattan Melodies to New York.

- What? - Yeah.

Broadway is dying to get a great musical like this.

Broadway?

Thanks, everybody, for having so much faith in us.

It's not often that a frog and a bear and a pig and a chicken...

...and a whatever even get accepted into college.

We're all so proud to be graduating now.

Some with honors...

Woman! Woman! Woman!

Woman!

And some with the help of daily psychological counseling.

Anyway, thank you again.

Thank you for everything, guys. Thank you. Yeah.

Back at you. Thank you.

- Broadway? - Yes, yes, yes.

But this show's not good enough for Broadway.

And the script needs a lot of work. I still think something's missing.

No. No, no, it's fine, Kermie. Really.

Remember you said we could not get married until we had enough money?

Yeah.

Well, we'd have enough if we had a hit on Broadway.

- Yeah. Right. - Yeah.

- Broadway of what city? - Gonzo.

What did I say? What did I say?

Well, even if the show was good enough, we're all just graduating.

What about our future plans?

- Well, this could be our future. - Yeah, yeah.

- That's right. - And if we don't do it...

...then we just say goodbye to each other.

Broadway! Broadway, Broadway!

Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go to Broadway.

- Yeah! - Broadway!

New York.

Look at everything.

Well, we made it, guys. We're really here.

What a great-looking place.

And it's filled with New Yorkers. Look at them.

Isn't this great?

Well, we better dump our stuff and find a place to stay.

- Scooter, break out the quarters. - Yes, sir.

Stop that. You're getting the walls messed up.

- What do you think, guys? - What?

How do you like it?

Much better than that cement mixer I lived in.

I'll trade with anyone that has a Jacuzzi.

Come on, it's just for one day. We'll all be on Broadway tomorrow.

Yeah.

- We'd like to see Mr. Price. - Do you have an appointment?

No. But we've got this great show called Manhattan Melodies...

...that he'll wanna produce on Broadway.

It's about kids that come to New York to marry...

...and has a wonderful opening number. It goes like this. Hit it.

Hold it. Hold it.

What's going on out there?

Just a frog with a musical, Mr. Price.

- A musical? Send him in. - Okay, guys, let's go on in.

Net, I'm talking net.

You gotta be kidding with gross.

Nice upholstery.

Hold it a minute. I'll get back to you.

Mr. Price, I'm Kermit, and these are my friends. We've got a show...

...that you'll wanna produce on Broadway.

It's about kids that come to New York to marry...

...and it opens with a great number. It goes like this:

Look at me, here I am

Frog, frog. No singing, okay? Just give me the general idea.

- It's all about life in the big city. - In the big city, huh?

With cops, shootings, car chases, that kind of thing?

Well, no. No shooting stuff. It's more like songs and dances.

- Songs and dances? - Yeah.

That might be interesting.

Nobody cares about shootings anyway.

Are you thinking big-name stars?

Actually, we're gonna be the stars.

That's exactly what I was about to say. You be the stars.

Unknowns.

Songs, dances, shootings.

No. No shootings.

You know what?

I smell something.

- Why does everyone always blame dogs? - No, no. What I smell is a hit.

- A what? - A hit.

You mean...?

Absolutely.

I'd be proud to produce your show. Fellas, you're gonna be on Broadway.

Hey, Kermit, we did it. We did it. We did it.

Thanks a lot, Mr. Price. But I'd like you to read the script.

There's still something missing...

Don't worry. We fix those things in the previews.

I've gotta call the papers, rent a theater...

...and I need $300 from you.

Three hundred dollars?

Yeah. Apiece.

Apiece?

Today. Yeah.

What?

Fellas, that's standard Broadway procedure.

You give me money, we start rehearsals tomorrow.

- But we don't have... - Kermie, I don't think that's right.

Yeah. Now I smell something.

- Fellas... - Mr. Price?

There are two police officers outside. They'd like to speak to you.

That's him. That's Murray Plotsky.

I gave him my life savings.

Murray? I thought his name was Martin.

Let's go, Murray. You've pulled your last con job.

Guys, I don't want any trouble.

Get back. Get back or the chicken gets it.

- That's a threat? - Don't hurt her. Take me.

Whatever you say, pal.

Get away from that door. Move!

Let go of my nose.

Watch it.

You too.

Bad man.

Easy.

Bad man.

Bad man!

Bad man! Bad man!

Get that chicken off my ear!

Chicken... Chicken on my ear!

Bad man!

Get off!

Get him off my ear!

- Bad man. Bad man. - Way to go, everybody.

- Where were you when I needed you? - Murray.

Animals! You're crazy, all of you!

And I want my money back.

Gonzo, are you okay?

I just saw my whole life flash before my nose.

Camilla.

She's hyperventilating. She needs mouth-to-beak resuscitation.

Kermit, he never wanted our show. He just wanted our money.

Gonzo, is Camilla all right?

Yeah, but I think we're engaged.

Come on, we're gonna get this show on Broadway.

- Come on, yeah. Let's go, guys. - Let's go.

You can't take no for an answer

No, no, no

Whenever there's a dream Worth a-dreamin'

And you wanna see That dream come true

There'll be plenty people talkin' Say forget all about it

Say it isn't worth the trouble

All the trouble That you're goin' through

What can you do?

You can't take no for an answer

No, no, no

What you gonna do When the times get tough

And the world's treating you unkind?

You've gotta hang onto Your optimistic outlook

And keep possession Of your positive state of mind

You can't take no for an answer

No, no, no

This is turning out to be a little tougher than I thought.

Kermit, I'm not good at this. I don't take rejection well.

Maybe we'd sell the show with more special effects, like exploding socks.

- Oh, Gonzo. Like, that's a lame idea. - Oh, yeah?

- Stop yelling at her. - He wasn't yelling.

- Yes, I was. - Gonzo, don't make trouble.

Fight! Fight! Fight!

- Kermit, should we change the script? - Yeah, what should we do?

I don't know.

How should I know?

Why are you always asking me? Can't you take care of yourselves?

I don't know what to do next. We failed, okay?

We tried and we failed.

Scooter, how much money do we have left?

Enough for two nights, unless we find cheaper lockers.

Well, we have to eat.
