Oscar at the Oscars

[minor muppetz]

BTW, I remembered seeing a clip of Piggy at the Oscars with some celebrity. Who was he?

I don't know of any "he" at the oscars, but during the 1996 Oscars, there was a sequence where Whoopi Goldberg was talking to Babe the Pig, who was on a monitor, and then the satelite suddeny changed to Miss Piggy, who was sabotaging Babe's appearance.

Chapter 7

Oscar was feeling miserable. More miserable than even a grouch should be. He was laying in his bed, talking to slimey.

"Oh, Slimey", moaned Oscar, "They nominated my movie for an Oscar, and they want me to go. What should I do?"

"Scream!", said Slimey.

"That is a good idea", said Oscar, and then oscar screamed so loud that the entire neighborhood could hear.

"Wow", said Big Bird, "That's a lot of screaming."

Bert was taking a nap, and oscar's screaming woke him up.

"Oh, great", said Bert, "Just when Ernie promises not to wake me up, Oscar wakes me".

"That's one! One loud scream!", said The Count.

Telly was at Hooper's Store.

"You know, Alan, I'm starting to worry about oscar", said telly.

"I think we all are", said Alan.

"Maybe we should get the grouchkateers, and a pile of garbage to make him feel better", said Gina.

"That's a grea tidea", said Telly, "I'll get the grouchkateers togetehr right now!"

Baby Bear then entered Hooper's Store.

"Hey, Telly, do you want to play with my new basketball?", asked baby bear.

"Not now", said telly, "We've gotta get oscar back to his old self".

Telly and the grouchkateers came to oscar's can. Telly banged really loud, and the grouchkateers all screamed really loud. Oscar came out of his can.

"What?!", growled oscar.

"We've all brought you soem nice, high-quality, unused trash", said Telly.

"Oh, yeah?", said oscar, who started to feel better. He saw the big bag of trash that was given to him.

More people started coming.

"And we've got more presents for you", said Elmo, "Elmo brought you this broken lamp".

"And I have brought you this food from Charlie's resturaunt", said Grover, "I accidently spilled it on the floor".

"I brought you a dusty bath towel", said Ernie.

"And I've decided to part with my rustiest paper clip just so you can have it", said Bert, "And I'll give you two drink bottles. But I'm keeping the caps."

"I broke my bicycle", said Mr. Snuffleupagus, "You can have it."

"Me give you empty cookie box", said Cookie Monster, "Me don't need desert anyway".

"I've brought you this broken door", said herry.

"Hey, I'm getting a lot of trash", said oscar, "this is nice..", then a htought crossed his mind, "..but.. You're all being nice......Augh!"

Oscar went back into the cna and slammed the lid down really hard. Then he popped back up.

"But I'm keeping all of your garbage!", sneered oscar.

Chapter 8

Bruno drove a garbage truck to Sesame Street. Nearly everybody on Sesame Street was there to say "goodbye" to Oscar.

"Bye, Oscar", said Cookie Monster.

"Good bye, Oscar", said The Count.

"Hasta Luego", said Rosita.

"Bye, Bye", said Telly.

"So long", said Bob.

"Why, everybody's saying 'bye' to me...", said Oscar, "..maybe this trip to the oscar's isn't as terrible as I thought it was".

Oscar saw that Bruno's garbage truck was pulling up, so he took Slimey and a suit case with him.

"Come on, Slimey", said Oscar.

He walked past Grungetta.

"Come on, Grungetta", said oscar.

"Oh, I'm goin', too?", said grungetta, "Yuck!"

They got into the garbage truck.

"Next stop, Bruno, the Oscar Awards!", said Oscar.

"Okay", said Bruno.

Everybody waved goodbye as the truck left.

A few hours later, Slimey started being a pest.

"Are we there yet?", asked Slimey.

"No", said bruno.

"Ar we there yet?", asked Slimey.

"No", said bruno.

"Are we there yet?", asked Slimey.

"No!", huffed an annoyed Bruno.

"Hey, this gae sounds like fun", said Oscar.

Oscar and Grungetta joined Slimey saying "Are we there yet". Eventually, Bruno got them to stop.

"Hey.. is that the Oscar Awards?", asked Bruno, as he pointed to a building that said "The Ozker Awards".

"No, you dumb old garbage man", said Oscar, "That's the ozker awards, you idiot!"

They went past another building.

"Ooh! Is that th Oscar Awards, Oskie?", asked Grungetta.

"No, that's the Oswald Awards", said Oscar.

"Look! Look!", said Slimey.

"Oh, are we at the oscars?", asked Oscar.

They saw the sign at the building.

"Oh, no", moaned Oscar, "That's the Frank Oz Awards. Keep driving, Bruno".

Then, oscar stopped thinking back, and we were back to the present.

"Hey, Oskie!", said Grungetta, "The award for 'Best Picture' is going to be announced next!"

"Okay, let's see how this turns out", said Oscar.

"Oh, you never looked so nervous before", said grungetta.

"Well, I've never had an Oscar nomination before", said Oscar, "I really hope I lose".

Chapter 9

It was time for the "Best Picture" nominations to be announced.

Ernie and Bert were watching the oscars at their apartment.

"Who do you think will win, Bert?", asked Ernie.

"It's hard to tell", said Bert, "maybe it will the most obvious, maybe it will be the least obvious."

Telly, Elmo, and Zoe were watching it at Baby Bears house.

"I'm so excited!", said baby Bear.

"I hope oscar's movie wins", said telly.

"So does Elmo", said Elmo, "But then again, Elmo doesn't know what other movies are being nominated".

"Neither do I", said Zoe.

Big Bird, Herry, Gina, and Rosita were watching the awards at Hooper's Store.

"Well, this is it", said Big Bird, "Will Oscar be happy or sad with the results?"

"Well, with oscar, it's hard to tell", said Gina.

"Let's just hope for the best", said Alan.

"And now the nominations for Best Picture", said Guy Smiley, "The nominiees are..."

Guy Smiley turned to the screen that showed clips from the movies.

"...Walk The Line..."

A clip was shown of a boy walking on a straight line painted down a road.

"I'm almost at the end of the line", said the boy, "I'm almost at the end..."

Grover was watching this on TV at his house.

"I would have been perfect for that role", said Grover.

The Count was also watching at his castle.

"One! One oscar nomination for best picture!", said The Count.

Guy Smiley announced the next nomination, "....Hurray For Trash!...."

"Hey, oskie, they're showing your clip!", said grungetta.

"You don't need to make me feel more miserable", groaned oscar.

A clip was shown.

"Me love these trashy cookies", sung Cookie Monster, who then stuck a cookie near his mouth, and an obvious cut to a grouch stunt double eating the cookie was made.

"Hey, that's oscars movie", shouted Telly.

"hooray for Oscar!", said Elmo and Zoe, at once.

Prarie Dawn was watching the show in her living room.

"I'm surprised that this movie was such a hit", said Prairie dawn, "Maybe I should have been involved".

"That's two! Two nominations!", said The Count.

"....The Pacifire...", continued Guy Smiley with the nominations.

A clip was shown of a baby sucking on his pacifire.

"Well, I'd rather my movie win than that movie", said Oscar, "Yecchhh!"

"Oh, The Pacifire", said Elmo, "Elmo did like that movie better than Oscar's".

"Three! Three nominations!", said The Count.

"Well, one more nomination to go", said Rosita.

"Yeah", said Herry.

"....And The Fantastic Four", said Guy Smiley.

A clip was shown of a big number four. Several numbers were cheering.

"Hooray! Hooray! Hooray for the fantastic four!", cheered the numbers.

"Yeah, I am fantastic, ain't I?", said the fantastic four.

"That's four! Four wonderful nominations! Ah ha ha!", said the count.

"oh, The Fantastic Four", said Big Bird, "I just adore the fantastic four, the fantastic number for me..."

"..And the winner is....", said Guy Smiley, who looked in the envelope.

Oscar held onto the arm of the chair, nervous about the response.

Ernie and Bert were also clutching onto their chairs, nervous.

"Well, this is it", said Bert.

"I hope we can live through oscar's response", said Ernie.

Guy Smiley announced the winner, "....The Fantastic Four!"

The audience cheered.

"that's one! One wonderful best picture!", said The Count.

"oh, no", said Telly, "Oscar didn't win".

"Don't worry", said Elmo, "Oscar might be happy".

Oscar was the only one in the theater not moving. His eyes opened widely, his jaw dropped a bit. He looked like he couldn't move.

"Oskie? Oskie?", said Grungetta, "Are you alright?"

"Alright?", asked Oscar, "Are you kidding? I lost. Of course I'm alright", said Oscar, "And I'm upset that I'm alright".

Oscar came home the next day. Bruno carried oscar to Hooper's Store.

"Well, Oscar, I saw the awards", said Alan, "congrats... err, oh, rats,.. err, how are you?"

"I enjoyed the fact that I lost", said Oscar.

"So, you're not a sore loser?", asked Alan.

"No", said oscar, "But the director of The fantastic Four wasn't a sore winner. In fact, I'm unhappy because there were not any sore losers at the awards".

"How was it at Hollywood?", asked Telly.

"oh, you won't beleive all of the trash that was there", said oscar.

"oh, yeah, we still need to unload the trash", said bruno.

"I was in one of the fanciest trash cans there, and although I didn't get an oscar, I did get a grammy", said oscar, who brought out a rusty grammy award.

Later that night, everybody was talkign to Oscar at his can.

"So, what did you hate the most, Oscar?", asked Zoe.

"Oh, it's either the acceptance speeches or the cheerful applauds of the audience", said oscar.

"What did you like the most?", asked Maria.

"oh, I really liked the language in Hollywood", said Oscar, "You never hear that kind of language here on Sesame Street, that's for sure".

"Hey, oscar, can I count all of the money you made?", asked The Count.

"Oh, yeah, the money", thought oscar, "you know, with the money I made, i could..."

"Give it to charity?", asked Rosita.

"No", said oscar.

"Invest it into the paperclip company?", said Bert.

"No!", said oscar.

"Buy me lots of cookies?", said Cookie Monster.

"definately not", said oscar.

"Then what?", asked maria.

"I can buy myself a lot of trash!", said Oscar.


The End.

 

[minor muppetz]

Well, since tonight is oscar night, I thought I'd bump this thread so that people who are in an Oscary mood can read this. Or perhaps so that people who didn't see it can read it.

 

[MartyMuppets]

I'm bumping this again right now. I love Oscar and it's a great story.
