1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:04,400
15 seconds to curtain, Mr. Borga. Fine,
I'll be ready when you're ready.

2
00:00:06,520 --> 00:00:08,360
Say, what's that you're playing?

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:09,760
It's Beethoven.

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:11,440
Any requests?

5
00:00:11,740 --> 00:00:12,740
Yes.

6
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:14,580
Don't play Beethoven.

7
00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:22,980
It's The Muppet Show with our very
special guest star, Victor Borga. Yay!

8
00:00:51,190 --> 00:00:57,030
I'm the most sensational, inspirational,
celebrational, Muppetational. This is

9
00:00:57,030 --> 00:01:00,150
what we call a Muppet Show.

10
00:01:05,750 --> 00:01:12,490
Thank you, thank you, and

11
00:01:12,490 --> 00:01:15,090
welcome to another one of those things
we call a Muppet Show.

12
00:01:15,470 --> 00:01:19,130
Tonight, our very special guest star is
that master of comedy and culture, Mr.

13
00:01:19,190 --> 00:01:21,870
Victor Borga. And we're all very excited
about it.

14
00:01:22,950 --> 00:01:25,090
You know,

15
00:01:27,330 --> 00:01:29,010
Victor Borga is not Swedish. He's
Danish.

16
00:01:31,290 --> 00:01:32,290
Well,

17
00:01:35,730 --> 00:01:36,870
sorry about that.

18
00:01:37,190 --> 00:01:40,230
Anyhow, before we get to good things
like guest stars, we have to pass

19
00:01:40,230 --> 00:01:41,910
some strange and unknown territory.

20
00:02:08,699 --> 00:02:14,640
Everybody wants to be a macho, macho
man. To have the kind of body that's

21
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:15,640
in the man.

22
00:04:27,470 --> 00:04:28,930
the street than on the stage.

23
00:04:31,990 --> 00:04:34,750
Okay, nicely rumbled there, gang.

24
00:04:35,990 --> 00:04:36,990
Well done.

25
00:04:37,790 --> 00:04:40,630
Excuse me, you have a Bobby Benson
working here?

26
00:04:40,910 --> 00:04:43,490
Yeah, he's downstairs rehearsing. Thank
you.

27
00:04:45,410 --> 00:04:48,550
Say, who was that guy? I've seen him on
television.

28
00:04:48,850 --> 00:04:49,930
I don't know. He wanted to see Bobby.

29
00:04:50,150 --> 00:04:51,710
I wish I could remember the show.

30
00:04:52,010 --> 00:04:53,230
I wish you could remember this show.

31
00:04:53,450 --> 00:04:56,090
Oh, right. Tell Mr. Borger to get ready
for his opening number.

32
00:05:13,830 --> 00:05:15,550
Hey, Bobby. Bobby, they're just great.

33
00:05:15,770 --> 00:05:17,650
I know. I know. Yeah.

34
00:05:18,090 --> 00:05:19,470
You Bobby Benson?

35
00:05:19,870 --> 00:05:21,030
Well, I sure am.

36
00:05:21,430 --> 00:05:26,030
I'd like to talk to you someplace in
private. Well, gee, I don't know. The

37
00:05:26,030 --> 00:05:28,990
babies. It's okay, Bobby. I'll take care
of the babies.

38
00:05:29,210 --> 00:05:31,330
Hey, thanks, Fozzie. Yeah.

39
00:05:31,730 --> 00:05:32,870
Babies take five.

40
00:05:33,310 --> 00:05:35,290
Hey, baby. Hey, baby. Hi.

41
00:05:35,790 --> 00:05:38,630
Hi. Hey, my name is Fozzie the Bear.

42
00:05:39,170 --> 00:05:43,230
Yeah. Yeah. And I am going to tell you a
whole...

43
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,380
He's truly one of the most distinguished
and funniest pianists in the world.

44
00:06:11,420 --> 00:06:13,020
Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Victor Borga.

45
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,680
Ladies and gentlemen, there seems to be
a dog on the stage.

46
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,180
Well, I hope you don't mind. I'm just
here to admire your technique.

47
00:06:40,860 --> 00:06:42,500
I play the piano, too, you know.

48
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,080
Oh, you do?

49
00:06:44,260 --> 00:06:45,340
That is interesting.

50
00:06:45,700 --> 00:06:47,140
Yeah, I hope that's okay with you.

51
00:06:47,380 --> 00:06:50,040
Yes, it certainly is. I chase cats once
in a while myself.

52
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:51,640
I hope that's all right with you.

53
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,200
Listen, be my guest.

54
00:06:53,580 --> 00:06:55,340
No, you be my guest. Let's play
something together.

55
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:56,680
Hey, can I do that?

56
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,520
What do you know? Do you know anything?

57
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:00,200
Maybe something by Bach.

58
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,460
My Bach is worse than my bite.

59
00:07:05,420 --> 00:07:10,480
There are three barks, you know. Johan,
Sebastian, and often bark.

60
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,140
I often bark myself.

61
00:07:15,180 --> 00:07:16,720
He's a witty dog.

62
00:07:17,740 --> 00:07:19,080
Okay, what do you want to play?

63
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,120
How about Liss, Hungarian Rhapsody,
number two?

64
00:07:22,380 --> 00:07:24,020
Oh, don't you know number one?

65
00:07:24,660 --> 00:07:26,760
Okay, number two.

66
00:07:26,980 --> 00:07:28,760
I'll start and you try to follow me.

67
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:30,980
Here we go. Okay.

68
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:55,920
A talking dog.

69
00:07:57,820 --> 00:07:59,080
Piano playing also.

70
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,620
I wonder how his violin playing is.

71
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,740
Sometimes I fiddle around.

72
00:08:58,340 --> 00:08:59,340
The cadenza.

73
00:09:01,700 --> 00:09:04,120
This is really the way it goes.

74
00:10:03,370 --> 00:10:06,990
Oh, Victor, hey, that was a nice number.
Nice going, Rolf. Oh, thank you, thank

75
00:10:06,990 --> 00:10:10,510
you very much. But I had a bone to pick
with you. They gave me my fee for my

76
00:10:10,510 --> 00:10:12,190
performance, but look what I got. It was
a mistake.

77
00:10:12,810 --> 00:10:14,430
I think you must have gotten Rolf's.

78
00:10:15,130 --> 00:10:17,090
Hot dog, I just got a raise.

79
00:10:20,370 --> 00:10:22,850
Well, I'll tell you, I worked for
Peanuts before.

80
00:10:23,870 --> 00:10:25,230
Yeah, Peanuts.

81
00:10:31,150 --> 00:10:33,670
Kermit, I'm just going to step out for a
few minutes with my friend.

82
00:10:33,930 --> 00:10:34,930
That's fine, Bobby.

83
00:10:34,970 --> 00:10:36,670
Have somebody watch the babies, will
you?

84
00:10:36,890 --> 00:10:37,529
Oh, sure.

85
00:10:37,530 --> 00:10:40,570
Not Fozzie. He doesn't seem to have the
nerve. Come on, Benson.

86
00:10:40,830 --> 00:10:41,830
Come on.

87
00:10:42,010 --> 00:10:46,650
Wait a minute. Hey, I just remembered
what TV show I saw that guy on. It was

88
00:10:46,650 --> 00:10:47,650
6 o 'clock news.

89
00:10:47,730 --> 00:10:48,730
He's a cop.

90
00:10:48,770 --> 00:10:49,770
I know.

91
00:10:51,650 --> 00:10:54,010
Not a problem now.

92
00:10:54,390 --> 00:10:55,790
Who's going to take care of the babies?

93
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:11,680
Miss Piggy? Of course. I just love
children and they adore me. I don't

94
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:12,680
this.

95
00:12:05,580 --> 00:12:06,720
One, two, three o 'clock.

96
00:13:21,260 --> 00:13:22,260
Something wrong.

97
00:13:22,820 --> 00:13:23,820
Just a minute.

98
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:29,900
The Blue Dandruff by Joe Strauss.

99
00:14:00,170 --> 00:14:06,650
Gonna make a big star out of me Make a
film about a man who's sad and lonely

101
00:14:13,370 --> 00:14:19,670
I'm gonna be a big star Like winning an
Oscar, you can never tell

102
00:14:19,670 --> 00:14:26,450
The movie's gonna make me a big star
Cause I can

103
00:14:26,450 --> 00:14:27,450
play the part

104
00:14:30,220 --> 00:14:32,980
Well, hope you'll come and see me in the
movies.

105
00:14:33,740 --> 00:14:37,240
Then I know that you won't plainly see.

106
00:14:37,660 --> 00:14:38,660
Who are you?

107
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,080
The biggest fool that ever hit the big
time.

108
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,800
Oh. And all you gotta do is act
naturally.

109
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,660
Hey, wait a minute. You can't do this.

110
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:49,920
Why not?

111
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,100
Well, you're a reflection.

112
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,660
You're supposed to do just what I do.
But you do ludicrous things.

113
00:15:04,100 --> 00:15:08,300
Naturally, I'll bet you I'm gonna be a
big star.

114
00:15:09,060 --> 00:15:12,160
Mike winning an Oscar, you can never
tell.

00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,900
The movie's gonna make me a big star.

116
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,060
Because I can play the part so well.

the movies.

00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,020
Be very quiet because I'm practicing.

Why? See what it says here? Con molto
tedioso.

130
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,190
What does that mean? That means... with
great dullness.

131
00:16:26,410 --> 00:16:28,850
I don't think you'll like that. Not the
way you came in here.

132

133
00:16:32,630 --> 00:16:33,970

Okay. Shh. Shh.

00:16:38,930 --> 00:16:40,170
That's the Spanish composer.

me tie my shoes.

137
00:17:56,590 --> 00:17:59,590
Gee, Miss Piggy and the baby seem to be
getting along fine.

00:17:59,870 --> 00:18:01,030
Yeah, I don't understand it.

139
00:18:01,370 --> 00:18:02,650
Miss Piggy!

Thank you.

00:20:00,780 --> 00:20:03,580
Ladies and gentlemen, it's my privilege

Yep, that's my bag.

145

Okay, if you're ready, please.

146
00:20:39,980 --> 00:20:45,280
All right, you all right there? Yeah, I

147
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,280
I know, I know. The short piano.

148
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:50,800
Okay, if you will try it again.

149
00:22:22,070 --> 00:22:26,950
But before we all sink slowly in the
West, let us pause to say thank you to a

150
00:22:26,950 --> 00:22:29,850
very special guest, our lady and
gentleman, Mr. Victor Borga.

151
00:22:30,810 --> 00:22:37,630
Thank you very much,

152
00:22:37,710 --> 00:22:42,190
Kermit. It has been a great experience,
particularly the baby band.

153
00:22:42,970 --> 00:22:44,010
Come on, baby.

154
00:22:44,830 --> 00:22:48,970
Mr. Borges, since you were our guest
soloist tonight, the babies would like

155
00:22:48,970 --> 00:22:50,550
to have this baton as a souvenir.

156
00:22:50,970 --> 00:22:53,530
Oh, but you have given me so much
already.

157
00:22:54,030 --> 00:22:55,030
Oh, like what?

158
00:22:55,090 --> 00:22:56,290
A chicken pox.

159
00:22:58,310 --> 00:23:00,150
We'll see you next time on The Muppet
Show.

160
00:23:05,180 --> 00:23:09,300
Stay tuned for the magic hour. I dream
of Jeannie and Bewitched. And make up

161
00:23:09,300 --> 00:23:14,100
your own mind who's more powerful. Does
Jeannie get the nod or is it Samantha by

162
00:23:14,100 --> 00:23:17,680
a nose? Find out how you can vote next
on Nick at Night.

163
00:23:38,190 --> 00:23:39,350
Berger played the Muppet Show.

164
00:23:39,550 --> 00:23:42,830
Yep. Who won? This time, Victor was the
loser.
