I know it featured Kermit, Old Mother Hubbard, and her dog, and I know it took place in the cottage, but:

1) What happens in this sketch?

2) How is it?

3) If there's ending music in there, how did it go?

I know Old Mother Hubbard is played by Jerry Nelson and her dog is played by Frank Oz.

Mother Hubbard tries and fails to find a bone for her dog in the sketch, as she does in the nursery rhyme. She then brings the dog various objects whose names rhyme with "bone", as Kermit comments on the rhymes. Mother Hubbard's first two substitutes (a throne and a stone) don't help the situation; but when Mother Hubbard brings a phone, the dog uses it to order from a Chinese take-out restaurant. (No music other than the usual News Flash theme plays in this sketch.)
