Laurie O'Brien: Piggy

Quotes 

• Gonzo : [while putting on a circus]  Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and get your tickets for the greatest show on the block.

  Rowlf : How much for, um, one ticket?

  Gonzo : What have you got?

  Rowlf : Uh, how about a baseball card?

  Gonzo : It's a deal.

  [Rowlf takes a ticket and enters] 

  Fozzie : One please.

  [Fozzie pays for a ticket and enters] 

  Scooter : I'll have one, too.

  [Scooter pays for a ticket and enters] 

  Skeeter : Me too.

  [Skeeter pays for a ticket and enters] 

  Piggy : All I have is my favorite record, Gonzo, and I hate to lose it. Catch my drift?

  Gonzo : Oh, uh, sure, Piggy. I couldn't possibly take your favorite record. You can come in for free.

  Piggy : Why, thank you, Gonzo.

  Gonzo : That is, uh, if you'll sit next to me.

  Piggy : Hmph! Here, take it.

  [Piggy gives Gonzo her record, puts his nose on it as it spins, takes her ticket, and enters] 

  Gonzo : Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Wow! She gave me her favorite record. It must be love.

• Nanny : Hi, kids.

  Babies : Hi, Nanny.

  Nanny : Lunch will be ready in a little bit. I hope you all like chicken salad.

  Gonzo : [gasps]  Did you hear that? Chicken salad? Nanny made Camilla into lunch!

  Piggy : Don't be silly, Gonzo. Camilla is a stuffed chicken.

  Gonzo : So? Maybe she's making stuffed chicken salad.

• [Gonzo turns off the lights] 

  Rowlf : Hey, who turned out the lights?

  Kermit : Oh, it's Gonzo. He's still playing detective.

  Skeeter : Let's just ignore him.

  Piggy : That won't be hard. I've been ignoring Gonzo since I met him.

• Fozzie : [after imagining himself in jail]  I don't want to be in jail!

  Kermit : Um, you're not in jail, Fozzie.

  Fozzie : I'm not?

  Piggy : No, and you obviously didn't take Camilla either.

  Fozzie : How do you know?

  Piggy : 'Cause you're not the criminal type.

  Fozzie : Gee, what type am I?

  Piggy : The airhead type!

  Fozzie : Why didn't I think of that?
