Quotes

[the kids were able to send away for their playhouse with five cents and 25 cereal box tops from Gonzo's collection]
Kermit : Gosh, I wonder what they do with all those box tops anyway.
Fozzie : Hey, maybe they have a million boxes without tops already and they need our tops to close those boxes so they can sell them to other kids like us who save the tops and send them back again so the people can cover more boxes and sell them to even more kids.
Kermit : You know, it's kinda scary, but I think I almost understood that.

Animal : Looky! Looky! Truck coming!
Rowlf : Truck? Hey, maybe it's the playhouse.
Gonzo : The playhouse!
Fozzie : Hurrah!
Skeeter : It's here!
Piggy : The playhouse is here!
[Kermit looks out the window]
Gonzo : Can you see it, Kermit?
Piggy : What does it look like?
Rowlf : Is it really big?
Kermit : Um, well, it's just an old ice cream truck.
Animal : Ice cream! Ice cream!
[laughs]
Rowlf : Ice cream? Wow! Maybe our playhouse is an igloo. You know, one of those houses made of ice.
Kermit : But that doesn't...
Gonzo : Gosh, do you think Nanny will let us keep it in the refrigerator?
Kermit : You guys...
Skeeter : No way. We'll just have to turn the heat way down in the nursery and wear heavy coats.
Kermit : HOLD IT!
Kids : Yes, Kermit?
Kermit : There is no playhouse in the ice cream truck. The mail lady has to bring our playhouse in the mail, remember?
Kids : Oh, yeah.
Fozzie : Gee, but how is she gonna carry a great, big igloo all by herself?
Kermit : Huh?
Gonzo : I got it. She's just gonna bring us a bunch of water.
Rowlf : Yeah, and we'll have to freeze it into ice cubes.
Scooter : And build the igloo ourselves? Oh, wow.
Kermit : Oh... Mmm... Gee!
Skeeter : [pulls out a picture of the playhouse] Wait a minute, you guys. I think Kermit's wrong about this igloo thing. The picture doesn't look anything like an igloo.
Kids : Yeah.
Gonzo : That's right.
Piggy : What's the big idea, Kermit?
Kermit : I KNOW IT'S NOT AN IGLOO!
Gonzo : Gee, then why did you tell us it was?
Kermit : But I... You see... Whew. I'll never mention the word "igloo" again. Ever.

Rowlf : Gee, Nanny, do you think the playhouse will ever get here?
Nanny : Well, Rowlf, the ad did say it would take six to eight weeks.
Fozzie : 68 weeks? Oh, no. This is awful. I'll be about a million years old by then and Nanny will be about a million and ten.
Kermit : Not 68 weeks, Fozzie. Six to eight weeks. Some time between six and eight weeks.
Fozzie : Oh, that's better. I'll only be about 100 by then.

[while imagining their playhouse as a haunted house, Skeeter appears as a ghost]
Skeeter : I am the ghost of Skeetlejuice!
Rowlf : W-W-W-W-What's that?
Scooter : That? Oh, that's just Skeeter fooling around. She doesn't scare you, does she?
Rowlf : [quivering in fear] S-S-S-S-Scare me? Heck, no.
Skeeter : I am not Skeeter. I am Skeetlejuice! This is my haunted playhouse and I'm going to scare you away!
Scooter : You can't scare us, Skeetlemoose.
Skeeter : That's juice! Skeetlejuice!
Scooter : Mm, whatever.
