Muppets from Space (1999) - full transcript

After Gonzo receives messages from his breakfast cereal, he determines that he is an alien and tries to contact his alien brethren, but is captured by an overzealous secret government agency determined to prove the existence of extraterrestrial life. It's up to Kermit and the gang to rescue Gonzo and help reunite him with his long-lost family.

[HORSE NEIGHS]

Hey, wait for me!

Hold the boat!

I'm coming!

Noah! Mr. The Ark! I'm here.

Barely made it. I thought

you were gonna leave without...

Oh. Oh. Gee, Mr. Noah, sir,

I'm gonna come too.

What are you, anyway?

Oh, uh... Good question.

Now, technically speaking, uh,

let's say, put me down

as a "whatever. "

What do you mean?

What is your species?

[STAMMERING]

I don't know.

I guess there's only one of me.

Then you are doomed!

Aah!

Wait. Wait! Oh.

[DOOR CREAKS]

Um...

Yes, sir?

You may need this.

[♪♪♪]

But, but, but...

Oh.

[THUNDER CRASHING]

Oh!

No! No! No!

I don't wanna be alone!

[SCREAMS]

[MUTTERING]

No, I don't wanna be alone.

No, no, no!

[RIZZO SCREAMS]

I don't wanna be alone!

RIZZO:

You're not alone.

Who said that?

RIZZO: Gee, I don't know. Maybe it's

the rat who's hanging out of the window!

[GRUNTS]

Rizzo?

No, it's Santa,

but I forgot my reindeer.

I'm sorry, Rizzo.

Yeah, right.

RIZZO:

Ah. Boy.

I had that weird dream again.

Oh, yeah? The one with the goat and

the dwarf and the jar of peanut butter?

No, it was the one where...

Forget it. You wouldn't understand.

I'd understand.

Come on, we're roommates.

Hey, hey, hey.

I'm here for you, man.

Okay. It's the one where

I'm talking to this Noah guy,

and he won't let me on his boat

because I'm all...

[RIZZO SNORING]

...alone.

[♪♪♪]

Good night, Rizzo.

[ALL SINGING "BRICK HOUSE"]

That was fun. Way to get down

Pass the bagel.

Good morning, Rowlf.

ROWLF:

Good morning, Bob.

Huh. Good morning, everyone.

ALL: Morning.

[CHUCKLES]

Hello, little people!

What an absolutely splendid day!

[GROANING]

How are you, Piggy?

Oh. Late. I start my fabulous

new job today.

We megastar TV journalists

have to be punctual, you know.

TV journalist...?

Gotta run. Bye, Kermie.

Kissie, kissie. Ha-ha.

[PIGGY HUMMING]

Is breakfast over?

No, why?

Because I think

the bacon just ran out.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

The raspberry flapovers

will be out in a moment.

Uncle Kermit, what'll you do

now that you're on vacation?

Robin, as soon as I get

those housepainters started,

I'm gonna kick back and relax.

When will you fix the oven, okay?

What's wrong with the oven?

[EXPLOSION]

That.

[SPEAKING IN

FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

Popovers kaput!

I'll put it on the top of my list.

There is a menu correction,

okay.

We will now be serving

bologna sandwiches.

[ALL GRUMBLING]

But no bread.

Ew.

I'm already gone.

[CHATTERING]

[GONZO GROANS]

Hey, Gonzo. Aren't you performing

at that bar mitzvah today?

No. The Electric Mayhem's

covering for me.

Shalom.

[♪♪♪]

Aah. Aah. Oy.

But you never miss the chance

to shoot yourself out of a cannon.

Something wrong?

No.

Okay.

It's just that I'm sick and tired of

being a one-of-a-kind freak, that's all.

[♪♪♪]

Gonzo, you are not a one-of-a-kind

freak. You're a, uh...

Uh...

A whatever?

Well, yeah.

You see?

See what I mean? I don't even know

where I came from or who I am.

Yo, Kerm.

Hmm?

You weren't waiting for

some painters, were you?

Yeah.

They're driving away.

What?

Animal bit one of them.

Oh, no.

Wait, guys!

Don't let them go!

You know what you are, Gonzo?

What?

Distinct.

[CAR ENGINE STARTS]

Hey, wait, guys! He didn't mean it!

He's just a musician!

ANIMAL:

Musician, musician, musician!

[♪♪♪]

GONZO:

Distinct, huh?

More like extinct.

Oops.

[♪♪♪]

"Watch the sky"? Hey, hey!

[RIZZO HUMMING]

Rizzo, come here. I think my Kap'n

Alphabet is sending me a message.

I know what you mean.

I had some guacamole last night,

and it's still speaking to me. Ha-ha.

No, really. Look, look.

I'm not kidding.

Well, it was there just

a second ago.

I swear, Rizzo.

It said, "Watch the sky. "

Are you sure it didn't say,

"You need help"?

But, but...

Look, maybe you and your cereal

would like to be alone.

[GRUNTS]

Oh, boy.

[SIGHS]

RIZZO [SINGING]:

My bologna has a first name

It's O-S-C-A-R

[♪♪♪]

Cool.

Huh.

"R U there"?

Rizzo!

[♪♪♪]

[NARRATOR READING

ON-SCREEN TEXT]

[NARRATOR CHUCKLES]

General Luft, welcome.

I'm on a schedule.

What have you got?

Hard evidence.

We finally got them.

SINGER: Rentro.

Yes, sir?

The remote.

The goat?

The remote.

The remote.

I thought he said, "The goat. "

Over the past few months,

we have received

some unusual communications.

Communications, sir,

that are not of this Earth.

Really?

RENTRO: Incoming.

Ooh. Sorry about that, general.

Here's your remote.

Thank you, Rentro.

We believe that aliens are using

a contact on Earth

to plan their invasion.

Now, this same message,

"R U there,"

has appeared all over the world.

We've been lucky enough to

capture these instances on film.

The pyramid at Giza.

Stonehenge.

Okay, now this one says,

"R U three," but we believe that

to be a simple spelling error.

This could be vandalism,

a practical joke.

Now, you see that?

Ha-ha-ha.

That's what I said, general.

These photos are, uh... Um...

I'll just be over here then. Ahem.

Right this way, general.

When I plotted

these anomalies sequentially,

a pattern emerged.

[BLEEPING]

A spiral.

Do you see the spiral?

Sir, they are out there.

They are coming here.

Do you have any idea

what you have here, Singer?

Sir, I have an inkling.

Bubkes.

Bubkes?

Good day.

But, sir,

we have to take action now.

I hired you to find me an alien.

And you bring me doctored photos

and a spiral.

You are on thin ice, boy.

I gotta hand it to you, sir.

I thought your presentation

was just wonderful.

[CHEWING]

And, uh... Mm. Ahem.

Yeah.

[♪♪♪]

Whoop, there it is.

Roberta. Dolores. Mm. Ooh.

Shannanay.

[CHUCKLES]

Yo, Kerm,

what should I do with the bills?

Just leave them inside.

All right.

Hey, Gonzo, do you want your

new issue of Insanity Fair?

GONZO:

No, I'll get it later.

[DOGS BARKING IN DISTANCE]

What is he doing up there?

His breakfast cereal told him

to sit on the roof.

Ooh. Talk about whole-grain

and nuts.

[ALL LAUGHING]

[WIND WHISTLING]

[♪♪♪]

Huh.

Cool.

[SCREAMS]

[EARTH, WIND & FIRE'S

"SHINING STAR" PLAYING]

[YELLING]

Hey, yeah. Whoo!

Cool.

[IMITATES MOTOR REVVING]

[YELLS]

[LAUGHING]

Whoa!

This could be painful.

[LAUGHING]

It is. It is.

Gonzo! Mr. Gonzo.

Mr. Gonzo.

BOTH:

Greetings, Mr. Gonzo. Greetings!

Whoa. What are you guys?

Space fish?

We are cosmic knowledge fish.

We know many, many things.

Would you like some tea?

No, thanks.

Mr. Gonzo, your people have

been trying to reach you.

My people? Are they fish too?

BOTH:

No, no, no.

We're not the same as you.

We are highly evolved beings.

Now, if...

What was I saying?

My people?

Oh, yes.

Excellent.

You must mow the lawn if you wish

to find what you seek.

I should mow the lawn?

Mm.

A lawn that is cut

in your own words, Gonzo.

A message that can be seen

from space.

Space!

So trim it well.

Goodbye, Gonzo.

And may the fish be with you.

Thanks, guys,

for the cosmic knowledge.

Goodbye, Mr. Gonzo.

Bye! Goodbye!

[SCREAMS]

Oh!

[GROANING]

[LAUGHING]

That's it! Ha-ha-ha!

[CHIPS CLINKING]

PEPE: Come on, Rizzo. Time to bet, okay.

All right, prawn cracker.

I'll see your Maryland crab cakes,

and I'll raise you

a 1958 cheddar cheese,

never been sniffed.

[ALL CHUCKLE]

Crab cakes and cheese?

Can't beat that.

GONZO:

Hey, guys!

The cosmic fish have spoken to me.

I'm from outer space!

Yeah, yeah, that's great.

RIZZO: Pepe, are you in or out?

I'm in.

I'm an alien!

You been tap-dancing

on the barbecue?

No, no, Rizzo. I'm just fine.

[SCREAMS]

[GRUNTING]

Aah! My cards!

Somebody get a fire extinguisher!

Not my cards.

Oh, no, no, no.

Heh-heh-heh.

Gonzo, are you sure you're okay?

Yeah, absolutely.

But I have to respond.

Gotta make contact. Ah.

Where's he going with those keys?

Who cares? Flying saucer, maybe.

Dos deuces.

Huh?

The prawn cracker wins.

Pair of twos! I swear

I had four aces. I really did!

[SINGING]

You got to know when to hold it

RIZZO:

No, no, no!

Know when to fold it

Know when to walk...

[CAR ENGINE STARTING]

GONZO:

Ow!

[JAMES BROWN'S "GET UP

OFFA THAT THING" PLAYING]

[THUD, THEN CAT SCREECHES]

[SIREN WAILING]

[♪♪♪]

Just a few things

for today, sir.

Let's see. Here's a winner.

Your Platinum Buns workout tape.

Huh? Ha-ha-ha.

And, uh... Uh, let's see...

Ooh. That new satellite photo

is here,

my Captain Kangaroo pajamas...

What? What?

What satellite photo?

Uh-huh.

SINGER:

"I am here. "

Mowed in the lawn.

Who did this?

[MOTOR SPUTTERING]

[SNORING]

This is not good. Ugh.

No.

Poor guy. He's hallucinating.

Getting weird messages.

Hearing things.

He listens to voices

and does what they say.

Hold your horseshoes.

Huh?

[SNORTS]

I think I've got an idea.

You're scary.

Okay. Yeah.

I have to call Luft.

Ooh.

Wait. Careful.

Careful.

Baby steps.

Baby steps.

We need more evidence.

More evidence.

Remember, we're just watching.

Watching.

And waiting.

Waiting.

[SNORING]

PEPE [VOICE SHAKING]:

Build it and we will come.

Build what?

PEPE:

Build a Jacuzzi,

and we will come, okay.

Ha-ha.

Shh!

I'm up. I'm up.

[GRUNTS]

Must build Jacuzzi.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Well done, pal.

[SPEAKS IN SPANISH]

[CHUCKLES]

[BRICK'S "DAZZ"

PLAYING OVER STEREO]

Put a little more paprika

on those, okay? Thank you.

Well, that's everything.

[RIZZO LAUGHS]

Whoa.

He built it.

And we came.

All right, now. Remember, I built

this new Jacuzzi for my alien family,

so no eating in the spa.

We gotta tell him the truth, Pepe.

You tell him

and I will smack you.

I will smack you like

a bad, bad donkey, okay.

Sal.

Yeah, Johnny.

There are no cannolis here.

Yeah, but try this cake.

This is a beauty.

That is nice. Would you...?

Gonzo, Gonzo!

GONZO: Go easy on the

buffet, fellas. I just want...

Who cut the cake?

Who cut the cake?

Who cut it?

What? Oh, look at that.

Who cut this cake?

That's awful, they would've...

I can't believe it. The guests

of honor aren't even here yet.

Hey, great party.

Yeah.

I just wish they'd get here.

SAL:

Hey, you! Did you cut Gonzo's cake?

I wonder if there really is life

on other planets.

What do you care?

You don't have a life on this planet.

[BOTH LAUGH]

[GROANS]

MAN [ON TV]: Earth, are you

ready? The Galaxy Channel presents:

UFO Mania Live, with close-encounter

expert Shelley Snipes.

Hello, I'm Shelley Snipes.

Coming up on UFO Mania Live,

I'll be taking a hard look

at some compelling new data.

Have you seen something in the sky

but were afraid to talk about it?

GONZO: I don't understand why

they didn't show up last night.

Well, perhaps we can

be of assistance.

I think we can help you contact

your alien brethren

by boosting your newly enhanced

conductivity.

Okay, Beakie. Let her rip.

Huh?

Mee-mee-ai. Whoo-hoo-hoo.

Hoo-hoo! Hoo-hoo!

Wait a minute.

I think I'm picking up a signal.

[YELLING]

SHELLEY: If you've had

contact with an alien,

or if you are an alien

and want to tell your story,

write to us or come to our studio.

SHELLEY [OVER SPEAKER]: Come to our

studio at 6577 Broadcast Lane now.

The mother ship

is calling me home!

[GASPS]

Ha-ha. Thanks, guys.

[GONZO LAUGHING]

The mother ship! It worked.

The mother ship!

[LAUGHS]

Beaker?

PEPE: You said you

going to tell him, okay.

Pepe, the Jacuzzi thing was your

idea, and you have to tell him.

Sí, I will tell him, okay.

Right.

GONZO: They're calling me!

Here he comes.

Hey, Gonzo.

I can't talk now, guys.

You should've told him.

I wasn't supposed to!

You said you'd tell him.

I said you. I meant you.

[JAMES BROWN'S "GET UP

OFFA THAT THING" PLAYING]

Hi, guys. I'm here.

I'll just leave the tractor

here in front, okay?

And that's the way it is.

This is Miss Piggy saying

good night, and have a great...

MAN:

Hey! Where's my coffee?

Uh, uh... I'm... Coming! Coming!

Coming! Coming.

I'll take one.

In a minute.

Light, no sugar.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Shelley's stuck at the airport.

She won't make it on time.

Okay, I am not gonna panic.

Who am I kidding? Yes, I am.

No, I'm not.

Okay, I'm panicking. Who can we

possibly get at the last minute? Who?

[PIGGY CLEARS THROAT]

Cappuccino?

[CHUCKLES]

WOMAN: Stand by, everybody.

MAN: Roll tape, please!

And cue I.D.

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYS

ON SPEAKERS]

WOMAN:

We're on in five, four, three, two...

[MUSIC FADES OUT]

[GASPING]

Look! It's Piggy's new show.

Ahh...

[WHISPERING]

Read. Read.

Oh, oh, oh. Um... Um... "Hello

again. I'm Shelley Snipes. " Mm.

Uh... Uh... "Today on UFO Mania,

flying saucers

and their extraterrestrial pilots. "

Wish I could find my pants.

PEPE:

You should come to see this.

"I'm sure you've often wondered

what might those alien creatures

look like?"

[GONZO PANTING]

People of Earth, do not be alarmed.

My message will be brief.

I am Gonzo.

Gonzo?

Hmm? Uh... Piggy?

I don't have a Gonzo.

Ha-ha-ha. There seems to be

some mistake. Ha-ha-ha.

Dang.

You better get down there, Kerm.

Relax. No one

is going anywhere, okay?

You see, I was contacted through

my breakfast cereal,

and it was confirmed

to me by the cosmic fish,

that I am definitely

from outer space.

So you wanna go now

or wait for the commercial?

Now. Come on.

What are you doing here?

Huh?

I'm making contact.

What are you doing?

Um...

Interview him.

I'm interviewing...

I'm interviewing you!

GONZO:

Great! What would you like to know?

The whole tearful tale

of your inner struggle, Gonzo.

GONZO: Oh. I want my people to

know I've received their messages,

and my response is:

"I am here. "

"I am here. "

Bingo.

I'm at 44 Bronson Lane,

and I can't wait to meet you.

And I can't wait to meet you.

Me too. He's very charismatic,

don't you think?

Freeze that!

Ooh.

SINGER:

I want him here and I want him now.

RENTRO:

Yes, sir.

So you're our fancy little landscaper.

We're gonna take a break.

Oh, oh, oh! Ha-ha-ha. Yes. We are going to

pause here, and we'll be right back with Gonzo,

the geek who fell to Earth,

with moi, Miss...

And we're out.

Ninety seconds, folks.

[GROANS]

Now that is TV.

The phones are lighting up like Vegas.

What power, what heat. You're a hit!

Oh! Oh, thank you.

Not you. Him.

Huh?

Me?

You've got it.

Sure wish we could find a cure.

[♪♪♪]

Rizzo?

Gonzo?

Kermie?

Piggy?

What's going on?

Listen, aren't you taking

this alien thing a little too far?

Kermit, I realize that it may be hard

for you to accept me as an alien,

but I didn't choose to be one.

Well, I've always had

alien tendencies.

This just makes sense.

Beautiful, big G.

I see a follow-up episode here.

Me too.

"The Alien in My Life. "

A Miss Piggy special report.

What are you talking about?

You're the coffee pig.

Huh?

Ha-ha-ha.

Kermit, he's such a joker.

Ha-ha-ha.

AGENT:

We'll take this from here.

[♪♪♪]

We're with the Society for

the Prevention of Cruelty to Aliens.

We feel your pain, Gonzo.

They feel my pain.

I got a paper cut that's a

doozy. You feel my pain too?

Can you help me make contact

with my alien tribe?

Yes, we can, Gonzo.

Somebody believes me.

Come on, fellas.

Take me to my leader.

KERMIT: But, but... Gonzo.

But, but, but...

I don't like the look of them.

This rat smells a rat.

The limo's right this way.

Oh, oh. Ooh!

Did he say limo?

Wait, I'm his translator.

Wait!

You know this Gonzo, right?

Um... If the price is right.

The price?

Look,

I deliver Gonzo's exclusive

life story, okay,

if you make moi

your new anchorwoman.

WOMAN:

We're back in 15 seconds.

What about Shelley?

Shelley, shmelly.

Yes, yes! Go.

All right! Hey!

Oh! Excuse me.

Excuse me. Ho, ho, yo.

Ho, ho. Hey, studmuffin, hold it.

I'll deal with her.

[PIGGY CHUCKLES]

You'll deal with moi?

Look, chumpo, I'm just trying to

get a story.

How about this story?

It's about a big bad wolf

and a little pig.

No, that's three pigs, okay?

Not in this version.

Wait a minute. You're not part of

that alien-protection agency.

Who are you?

Where are you taking Gonzo?

Hai-ya!

I'm impressed.

[GRUNTS]

Black belt, third degree.

Hai-ya!

Platinum belt,

with an unlimited line of credit.

I like this party.

[GROWLING]

Tough guy. Tough guy!

[LAUGHS]

Come on. Show me!

Show me!

Look! Cindy Crawford. Hai-ya!

Huh?

[LAUGHS]

[GROANS, THEN LAUGHS]

Where have you been all my life?

[GRUNTING]

Is that all you got?

Is that all you got?

Is that all you got?

Is that all you got?

[YELLING]

Not the noogie!

Hey!

Unh!

[GROANS]

[YELLS]

Mama!

CROWD [CHANTING]:

Gonzo, Gonzo, Gonzo!

What the hey?

CROWD:

Gonzo, Gonzo, Gonzo!

There are no aliens here.

Only good, old-fashioned,

hard-working Americans.

[CLUCKING]

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.

[CROWD CHATTERING]

Yuck.

AGENT: 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!

[LAUGHS]

Come on. Please. You think

Ted Koppel never gets excited?

[GRUNTS]

RIZZO: So this is the car that

takes us to the limo, right? Oh!

Somebody should look

at those shocks.

At least they carried our stuff.

Don't hold your breath for a tip.

Oh! Heh-heh-heh.

Ahem.

As ambassador of Earth,

I welcome you.

Uh, yeah.

I'm Edgar,

but I want you to call me Ed.

That's Ed.

Oh, Ed.

And it's an honor

to meet you, Mr. Gonzo.

Yeah, yeah. Me too.

Hors d'oeuvres! Ha-ha-ha!

SINGER:

Please,

won't you sit?

Oh. Thanks. Ha-ha.

Careful, careful.

You'll get gas.

So when do we begin, Ed?

I'm very excited about all this.

Uh...

Me too, my friend.

Me too.

Yeah.

PIGGY:

Kermie, Kermie, Kermie!

Kermie! Yes! Yoo-hoo!

Kermie! Everybody!

Come here. Come here. Oh, oh, oh. 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...

I've got the story!

I've got the story!

Oh! I need to change. Something

that says journalistic integrity.

Oh! Oh! Oh! I've gotta pee.

Oh, brother.

Oh. 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.

[ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]

[♪♪♪]

What do you got, Bunsen?

Oh. There you are.

Well, Mr. Kermit, here at Muppet

Labs, we've come up with many devices

that should aid you

in your covert operations.

Excellent.

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.

BEAKER: Mee-mee!

"Door in a jar"?

Mee-mee-mee! Mee-mee!

That's absolutely right, Beakie.

All you do is open up the jar,

fling the contents

onto the wall, and poof!

Poof!

Instant door.

Wow. What is this?

A secret communication device?

No. That's Scotch tape.

Useful if something tears.

Ah.

PIGGY: Ahem.

ALL:

Ooh.

And what do you have for moi?

Ah.

Ooh.

Well, Miss Piggy, for you

we have Muppet Labs Mind Mist.

Simply spray it on the subject,

and they will obey

your every command.

[LAUGHS]

I dou... Ooh-ho!

Mee-mee-moo-hoo.

[GRUNTS]

I doubt I'll need any.

Okay, guys. Let's go get Gonzo.

RIZZO:

Yeah. Come on.

PEPE: We'll find him, okay.

Gonzo! Gonzo! Gonzo!

Yeah!

[♪♪♪]

I've been looking for

something like you

all my life.

And now, at last, my search

has come to an end.

May I?

Before you answer,

you better be clear

on the final destination

of that finger.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Oh. Thanks.

Hmm.

No nostrils.

How do you smell?

Awful. Trust me,

I'm his roommate.

[BOTH LAUGH]

RIZZO:

That's a killer!

[ALL LAUGHING]

Don't...

laugh...

at me!

[GULPS]

[♪♪♪]

I hope I'm not imposing, but I thought

you were just great on TV.

Could I get your autograph?

Rentro?

Yes, sir?

It's not a good time.

This is probably not a good time.

Yeah. Ahem.

Forgive me my earthly manners.

But do you have any idea

what it's like

[CHUCKLES]

to be laughed at?

Yeah. Sure I do.

To be called names like "wacko"?

Uh-huh.

And "freak boy"?

Oh, yeah.

And "paranoid delusional

psychopath"?

Got me there.

To feel

completely alone

in this world?

Yeah. I think we're starting to get

the general idea there, Ed.

Yeah.

[♪♪♪]

It's wrestling legend

Hollywood Hulk Hogan?

Have the rat sent down

to Dr. Tucker for some tests.

Tests? But I haven't studied. I

don't even have a number-two pencil.

This is for

all my NWO-ites out there.

I will continue to dominate wrestling.

I'll make your back crack, your knees

freeze and your liver quiver.

I will continue to put so much pain

on you, you'll become my "painiac. "

SINGER:

Hollywood.

Would you mind? The rat.

Oh, yeah.

RIZZO: Oh...

Where you going with my friend?

RIZZO: What'll your fans think?

Hey, what you gonna do?

I'm a bad guy now.

Gonzo! Gonzo, help me!

No, no! Ah!

Rizzo!

Shh-shh-shh.

He's going to be fine.

[RIZZO SCREAMING]

RIZZO:

Ow!

Huh?

[GRUNTING]

Yo.

[♪♪♪]

How you doing? I'm Bubba.

Hey. Rizzo. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

How'd you like to meet the boys?

Uh... Sure. Heh.

Up there, that's Fast Eddie,

harmonica extraordinaire.

How you doing, Ed?

Well, I ain't dead.

Over here's Troy.

Yeah, hi.

This back here,

that's Shakes.

Hi. Hello.

How you doing? Welcome.

They're doing a new

caffeine substitute on him.

That's the Birdman.

Where are you? Gladys?

He don't bother nobody.

Been here forever.

[GRUNTING]

Gladys! Come on,

the guys are watching.

He just likes to hang out with

his birds. Know what I mean?

So that about does it for all

of us here at Medical Research.

[GRUNTING]

Medical Research?

Yeah.

But that would mean we're

lab rats!

RIZZO:

Gonzo, get me out of here!

SINGER:

Now, Mr. Gonzo.

Hm?

What can you tell me about these?

Whoa. They really have been

looking for me.

SINGER:

And they are coming to Earth?

GONZO:

I don't know.

SINGER: How many are there?

GONZO: I don't know.

When will they be here?

And don't you dare tell me

that you don't know.

Uh... I know not?

[GRUNTS]

But maybe I could find out?

Could you?

Okay.

Well...

Okay, then.

I'll keep in touch. Thanks.

Oh. Heh. So back to the limo?

It's a shame, really.

Huh?

I really need that information.

So I'm afraid

we'll have to perform

an invasive quadra-lobal

brain probe on you

and pluck it from your head.

The information?

No, your brain. Take him away.

What?

My brain?

But just a second. I...

Where are you taking me?

SINGER: Rentro, get General Luft.

I need my brain!

I need my brain!

[♪♪♪]

Hey, Fozzie, tell me again.

Why are we doing this?

To save Gonzo.

Gonzo! Gonzo! Gonzo!

Right. Because Gonzo's

one of us.

No matter what happens, no matter

what obstacles we face,

we never forget one of our own.

PIGGY: I love it when you take charge.

Hey!

We left Bunsen and Beaker

back at the gas station.

Okay. Well, uh...

From now on,

no matter what happens,

we never forget

one of our own.

That's right.

Hmm.

Cheese Twiddle?

Is this movie time or something?

Oh, no.

So you're the new guy.

From this moment on, if I say

you're hungry, you eat.

If I say you're sleepy...

I eat?

Oh, you shouldn't have...

Well, well, well.

We got a funny boy here.

Is that bad?

Very bad.

Looks like funny boy's

going to the maze.

Since we don't want funny boy

to get lonely,

you'll all do time

in the maze.

I'm sorry. I didn't know.

See, no one's ever escaped

from the maze, funny boy.

Even if you did,

it's four feet to the ground,

12 feet to the door

and four feet to the doorknob.

That's 18 feet.

Twenty.

Funny thing about doorknobs:

Rats can't turn them.

No opposable thumb.

[LAUGHING]

[THE O'JAYS' "SURVIVAL"

[YELLS]

This is ridiculous.

No, no.

Hey, Riz, watch out

for them red circles.

RIZZO: Yeah? What's wrong

with the red...? Aah!

Nobody ever listens.

Red circles. Right.

[COUGHS]

Now, let me see.

Cheese, rat poison.

Cheese, rat poison. Duh.

What do you guys think, I'm crazy?

This is a no-brainer.

This ain't so bad.

A little breezy. Oh, boy.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa!

Auntie Em! Auntie Em, it's a twister!

This is just like

one of those carny rides.

You just gotta hang on, and at

the end I get some cotton candy.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

[SCREAMING]

I'm gonna hurl!

You're just trying

to play mind games here.

But I know the cheese is safe,

because you think I'm going

for the poison, right? Huh? Huh?

Psst.

Huh?

Hey there, little fella.

How you doing?

While they're warming up the brain

Sure.

Okay.

I'm channeling my voice through this

Great! What's the message?

Ahem.

We arrive at midnight tonight.

Really? And do all of you

Forget about the sandwich!

I'm sorry.

We're landing at your house.

No, no, wait.

Those guys know where I live.

And they're not the best

examples of earthlings.

Gosh, where else can we land?

Let's see, uh...

I know! At the beach.

Go to Cape Doom.

Just look for the lighthouse.

SANDWICH:

The lighthouse at Cape Doom it is.

Oh, boy. I didn't hear that.

I didn't hear that.

This is great.

But how do I get out of here?

Hey, I'm just a sandwich.

Some things you gotta

figure out for yourself.

By the way, you go ahead

and eat me now.

You're gonna need the energy.

Ah.

But won't that hurt?

No, it's fine. I'm going away now.

distinctly one of a kind.

We welcome you back

with our most

ceremonious of ceremonies.

What's that?

We gonna blow you up, baby.

[THE ISLEY BROTHERS'

"IT'S YOUR THING" PLAYING]

Yes, yes, yes! Ha-ha-ha!

[GASPS]

[LAUGHS]

[YELLS IN SPANISH]

I love these people! Whoa.

Coming down!

Cowabunga!

[GONZO LAUGHING]

Oh, no!

[CROWD CHATTERING]

Where's he gone?

Ta-da!

[CROWD CHEERING]

He's okay! He's all right.

Now, that is what I call

the Great Gonzo.

RIZZO:

It's so good to see you.

[LAUGHS]

Yee-ha!

[SCREAMING]

Yes! Yes!

SINGER:

Hold it!

Hold it.

Get out of the way, you freak.

[♪♪♪]

Very, very moving,

my little alien friend.

But I'm afraid your timing is off.

Now,

you're coming back with me

in my cement truck.

[ALIENS GIGGLING]

What's so funny?

[ALIENS LAUGHING]

SINGER:

Don't laugh at me.

Don't laugh...

All right.

I'll show you laughter!

No!

COMPUTER VOICE:

Please load weapon.

Please load weapon.

Please load weapon.

[ALIENS LAUGHING]

Come on. Come on.

Aah!

[LAUGHING CONTINUES]

Aah! Oh!

My toe!

This certainly is good!

That was a close one.

Not as close as you think,

my friend.

"Please load weapon. "

Ah.

[ALL LAUGHING]

[SOBBING]

We are honored to meet you.

A most extraordinary performance.

What are you talking about?

Gonzo of Earth, who is this most

entertaining friend of yours?

That's Ed.

Hi, Ed.

Hello, Ed.

The cape.

The cape!

The cape for Ed.

Ed, because of

your comic instincts,

we have chosen you

as ambassador to our planet.

You mean

you want me to go with you?

[♪♪♪]

To boldly go where

no man has gone before?

It would be our

great privilege, Ed.

Uh... May I call you Zongo?

Zongo.

Zongo.

To travel the stars

like a modern-day Magellan?

To be up there with John Glenn,

Neil Armstrong.

I think you better get going.

They're waiting for you.

Run along now.

This way, Zongo.

ALIENS:

Zongo. Zongo.

Baby steps, sir. Ha-ha.

Baby steps.

Time to beat feet.

Come along, little brother.

Oh. Oh, boy.

This is happening so fast.

Well, guys, you know,

I'm gonna miss you.

And I'll be thinking about you.

Rizzo, buddy...

No, no, not me.

I do not do goodbyes.

Well, I just want to tell you...

I just want you

to take care of yourself.

Don't worry about me. I...

[VOICE BREAKING]

I can always get another roommate.

Oh, buddy.

Take care.

You too.

And, Kermit,

you're the best friend

any alien could ask for.

Oh...

We love you, Gonzo.

Um...

So you'll write?

Oh. Yeah, sure, I'll write.

There's probably a mailbox

every couple of light-years.

Ha-ha. Yeah.

Adiós, Mr. Spaceman, okay.

Man, you keep saying goodbye,

and you'll never get home.

Oh, yeah. Home. Home.

Time to go home.

Ah. Ah-ah-ah.

[CRYING]

The stars beckon.

Shall we go home?

I don't think so.

Gonzo?

Thank you for going

to so much trouble to find me.

But I can't go.

I love these guys.

My life is here.

This is my home.

If that is your decision,

then we shall abide by it.

We will miss you.

So good luck, Gonzo.

Yes.

People of Earth, later.

Yes!

[LAUGHING AND CHATTERING]

Oh, boy.

Goodbye!

RIZZO: Ha-ha!

You're back! You're back!

People of Earth,

this is one small step for man

and one giant step for...

Forget it.

[CHATTERING]

[♪♪♪]

GONZO: What a great day.

KERMIT: Uh-huh.

GONZO: That was probably the

best day of my whole life.

There's one thing

I still don't understand.

KERMIT:

What's that, Gonzo?

GONZO: Why did they ask

me to build a Jacuzzi?

KERMIT:

Hmm.
