I like this party.

Tough guy. Tough guy!

Come on. Show me!

Look! Cindy Crawford.

Where have you been all my life?

Is that all you got?

Is that all you got?

Not the noogie!

Mama!

What the hey?

Gonzo! Gonzo! Gonzo!

There are no aliens here.

Only good, old-fashioned,

hard-working Americans.

Good grief.

Now get off my Kentucky bluegrass.

Look! It's a little green man.

Excuse me, but what are

all you people doing here?

We were drawn here by the alien.

That's all I know.

So let me get this straight now.

This government agency, C.O.V.N.E.T.,

has abducted Gonzo...

...and taken him

to its top-secret facility?

Yes, Miss Piggy.

Thank you.

You've been most helpful.

At last! A real story.

Intrigue, danger, new outfits.

And it's mine, mine, mine!

All mine!

Come on, please. You think

Ted Koppel never gets excited?

So this is the carthat

takes us to the limo, right?

Somebody should look

at those shocks.

At least they carried our stuff.

Don't hold your breath for a tip.

As ambassador of Earth...

...I welcome you.

I'm Edgar...

...but I want you to call me Ed.

That's Ed.

And it's an honor

to meet you, Mr. Gonzo.

Yeah. Me too.

Hors d'oeuvres!

Please...

...won't you sit?

Thanks.

Careful, careful.

You'll get gas.

So when do we begin, Ed?

I'm very excited about all this.

Me too, my friend.

Me too.

Kermie!

Kermie! Everybody!

Come here.

Listen, everyone, listen.

I've got great news!

Gonzo has been kidnapped

by the government...

...and it could be

a life-threatening situation!

How can that be great news?

Because...

...l've got the story!

I've got the story!

I need to change. Something that

says, "Journalistic integrity."

- I've gotta pee.

- Oh, brother!

What are we gonna do?

Okay, guys, it's up to us.

We have to save Gonzo from

a whole army of government agents.

Well, I have a joke book.

Drumsticks! Drumsticks!

I have some loose Jell-O, okay.

Okay. Well, that settles that.

In circumstances like this,

there's only one place to turn.

- What do you got, Bunsen?

- There you are.

Well, here at Muppet Labs,

we've come up with many devices...

...that should aid you

in your covert operations.

This seemingly ordinary

rubber ducky...

...actually contains

invisibility spray.

However, the effect is,

sadly, temporary.

The old rubber-ducky-with-

invisibility-spray trick. Check.

And, Beaker, if you would.

Here is something that

we're very excited about.

"Door in a jar"?

That's absolutely right, Beakie.

All you do is open up the jar...

...fling the contents

onto the wall, and poof!

Instant door.

What is this?

A secret communication device?

That's Scotch tape.

Useful if something tears.
