Muppets Most Wanted Page #5

Synopsis: Flush with their revival's success, Kermit the Frog and his friends are approached by Dominic Badguy to go on a world tour. Unknown to them, this is all part of the sinister plan of Constantine, the world's most evil frog, to become the greatest thief of all time. After making sure that Kermit is jailed as himself, Constantine impersonates him to use the Muppets' tour as cover for his scheme. While Sam the Eagle and Inspector Jean Pierre Napoleon investigate, the Muppets find their boss seems strangely changed even as Kermit desperately attempts to escape to stop the impostor. Only when Walter, Fozzie and Animal realize the truth is there a chance to prevent Constantine from pulling off the crime of the century.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please welcome...

"Study Kermit tapes." Nonsense.

It's...

Oh, no.

Kermit! Introduce the show.

It's the Muppet Show!

With our very special guest star,

Christoph Waltz!

What is happening? Why am I flying?

- What the...

- We gotta do something!

Please welcome our first act,

Herr Christoph Waltz dances the waltz!

Darling, you set my world on fire.

Did somebody say "explosion"?

No! He says I set his world on fire.

There it is again!

Wait for me! Please! Wait for me.

One more!

Keep Waltzing, Mr. Waltz!

Hey!

It was vertigo.

Not stage fright, if that's

what you're thinking, Number Two.

Sure.

Right, now to cover our tracks.

Let's get out of here!

CIA.

Interpol!

What is the CIA doing here?

This is myjurisdiction.

Not to mention, my badge is bigger.

One of the stolen paintings was on loan

from the New York

Metropolitan Museum of Art.

So, this is CIAjurisdiction.

Also, this is my travel badge.

Here's my real badge.

You must have been

looking at the wrong...

- Badge!

- What?

You've won this round, Pierre.

- My name is "Jean."

- Okay, Shawn.

It looks like we're gonna

be working together.

But that doesn't mean I have to like you.

I didn't like you first.

I didn't like you before I met you.

So, what have we got?

Two priceless paintings stolen

and one average painting

of an obscure English colonel.

This has all the markings

of the work of the Lemur.

What's a lemur?

Only the second most wanted

criminal in the world.

And my personal nemesis.

Unfortunately for me,

his identity is a mystery.

No, literally, what is a lemur?

It is also a rat-monkey

from Madagascar.

Just as I suspected.

This coin is his calling card.

The Lemur, he is playing with us.

I have a delivery here for Mr. Eagle.

Right here.

And here's your rope.

You were saying?

Look at that.

"Muppets sell out in Berlin." Five stars!

Kermit the Frog is liking this news.

Choc-choc, yeam!

Tunnel.

It's not there.

You were wrong!

Not so fast.

Oldest trick in the book.

Write it in lemon juice,

then simply apply heat

to reveal Colonel Blood's map.

Of course, today,

the Crown Jewels lie behind

the most sophisticated

security system on the planet.

And this map, along with

Blood's key and locket,

is the only way to get close to them.

Good work, Number Two.

What does it say

about location of Blood's key?

Right.

Something, something.

"Finest wooden teeth."

That is not helpful.

Wait.

There's the name of a city here.

Madrid.

You've got the wrong frog!

Hey, hey, hey!

It's Constantine.

- What?

- He's back.

What are you doing?

I'm not Constantine. My name is Kermit.
