SPECIAL GUEST STAR: WILLIE NELSON
OPENING THEME
OPENING NUMBER: Janice and two Anything Muppet backup singers sing "Leader Of The Pack". At the appropriate time, Floyd rides in on a motorcycle, but something goes wrong with the brakes and he goes flying into Statler and Waldorf's box, breaking his leg in the process.
STATLER: Wow! I didn't know Floyd was doing Gonzo's act tonight!
FLOYD: I got news for you, I didn't know I was doing Gonzo's act either!
BACKSTAGE: Floyd is carted backstage on a stretcher by Rowlf and Fozzie. Janice is alongside the stretcher, visibly freaking out...thus unnerving Fozzie and making him drop his end of the stretcher. Kermit also has a dilemma--with Floyd on the disabled list, he has to audition a new bassist to fill in...and Gonzo has to find a new act, since he was going to reprise his motorcycle stunt (i.e. riding it through S & W's box).
GUEST STAR: Willie Nelson sings "Crazy" with Crazy Harry lurking around...and detonating his explosives...in the background.
STATLER: That's an appropriate song for tonight.
WALDORF: Yeah, Willie would have to be CRAZY to appear on this show!
BOTH: DOHHHH, ho ho ho...
VETERINARIAN'S HOSPITAL: Floyd is the patient (not like he could just get up and walk away this time) and Nurse Janice gets very overdramatic, threatening Dr. Bob if he can't fix Floyd up properly. In a role reversal, Nurse Piggy is actually laid back for a change.
BACKSTAGE: Kermit auditions new bass players, including Emmet Otter (who can only play washtub bass) and Big Jeffy (who thought the audition was for bass singers).
UK SPOT: Boober Fraggle sings the Yiddish song "Help! My Nerves" (translated into English, of course). (LONG story behind this one!)
SKIT: At The Dance
TALK SPOT: Kermit and Willie Nelson sing "The Rainbow Connection".
SONG: Gonzo the Great unveils his replacement act, dressing up as a gypsy and singing "I Sniff The Rose" from "Fraggle Rock".
SKIT: Fozzie Bear does stand-up routines incorporating Willie Nelson song titles, but as usual, can't avoid Statler and Waldorf's smart cracks.
STATLER: I heard Willie was going to sing a song dedicated to you, Fozzie!
WALDORF: Yeah! "Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Comics!"
BACKSTAGE: Kermit auditions yet even more bass players (including Sweetums, who breaks a bass guitar the minute he picks it up). Finally Floyd says he can still play on a broken leg. Kermit agrees, mainly because he really has no choice.
CLOSING NUMBER: Willie Nelson sings "On The Road Again" with the jugband and Beauregard on harmonica.
CLOSING THEME
WALDORF: Can you wait to get on the road again, Statler?
STATLER: Only as long as it's away from this theatre!
BOTH: DOHHHH, ho ho ho...
