- Yee-haw!

[all cheer]

- Moi has the fastest tricycle in all the west.

- Says you. My tricycle's faster.

- We'll see about that. - Hiyah! Hiyah!

- Okay, everyone. Time for lunch.

[all speaking at once]

- I have to go back inside to get the dessert.

You can pass out the sandwiches while I'm gone.

- All right, everyone.

Moi will take care of handing out these sandwiches.

- Hold on a second.

I happen to be an expert at passing out sandwiches,

and I think you should let me show ya how it's done.

- Oh, thank you, Gonzo,

but I don't need you to show me how to pass out sandwiches.

I'm already far more fabulous at it than vous.

- Says who? - Says moi.

- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

- Uh, guys.

- The day you can teach me anything

about passing out sandwiches, I'll--

- Guys, we don't need you to pass out the sandwiches.

We already ate 'em.

- [belches] Excuse me.

- Here we go.

Cookies and milk for dessert.

all: Yay!

- [whispers] - Yeah, yeah.

- Miss Nanny, can we serve up

the cookies and milk over by the stage?

- Fozzie and I reckon we got a plan for 'em.

- A plan, huh?

Well, as long as it's okay with everyone else.

[all speaking at once]

- Just don't let the chicks get them.

- Great! Come on, everyone.

[all speaking at once]

- Hold on, you two.

You need to finish your sandwiches first.

both: Oh. Yes, Miss Nanny.

Hmm!

[excited chatter]

- Ah, delicious! I do enjoy Nanny's sandwiches.

- Not as much as I do.

And now, this cowpoke is ready for some dessert.

- Well, you're in luck, partners.

Kermit and Fozzie are ready to show us

what they been planning.

Come on!

both: Hiyah!

- Welcome buckaroos to the grand opening

of Kermit and Fozzie's milk and cookie saloon.

- Step inside and let us serve you up the finest desserts

in all of Spud Junction.

[all speaking at once]

- Wow, ya'll are brave openin' a milk and cookies saloon

with the Cookie Time Bandits on the loose.

- Cookie Time Bandits?

Who's that? - [gasps]

You mean you never heard of the Cookie Time Bandits?

- They roam the land takin' people's desserts

without asking.

- Sweet Sarsaparilla!

Taking things without asking ain't right.

- Why doesn't somebody stop 'em?

- Well, the sheriff's supposed to stop them.

- They're the one who catches the bandits

and keeps the cookies safe.

- But our sheriff quit.

- Well, don't you worry none

'cause I will be happy to be your new sheriff.

- Hold your horses!

I'm thinking I'd make a much better sheriff

for this here town.

- Hey, that's great!

- You can both be the sheriff.

- Forget it, bear.

One sheriff is way more fabulous.

- Which is why it needs to be me.

This job's not big enough for the both of us.

- I'll say, and that's why I'm the one

who's gonna be protecting these here cookies.

- Not if I protect 'em first.

- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

- Hey, I think I know a way

we can settle this fair and square.

With a Rootin' Tootin' Sheriff Showdown.

That's a bunch of contests

to see who would be the best sheriff.

- Fine with me. - That sounds well!

- Then what are we waiting for?

Let's get this sheriff showdown started.

all: Yee-haw!

- [clucks]

- Yee-haw!

- All right, Sheriffs.

Your first competition will show just how good you are

at helping people in trouble.

Look, Potato is stuck over yonder

on the back of a runaway tricycle.

- Oh, no!

- He might fall off and get a boo-boo.

- Then get out there and save that spud.

First sheriff to get him off that trike wins.

- Hiyah! - Giddyap! Hiyah!

- Don't worry, Potato. I'll save ya.

- I think you mean moi will. - Not so fast.

The only one doing the savin' 'round here is me.

He's my best friend, and I'm gonna save him.

[gasps] Look out!

[both wail]

- [grunts] Gotcha.

[both whimper]

- Told ya I'd get him.

- Moi got him first.

- Um, I think it's a tie.

- Well, that's not gonna help us pick

who's da better sheriff.

- [whistles] Don't worry.

I'm sure the next contest in the showdown will settle it.

Come on. Let's head for the corral.

- [clucks]

- Yee-haw!

- All righty, Sheriffs.

For this next competition,

we're gonna pretend to have a big problem.

Animal, you're on. - Oh. Oh, yeah.

Oh, no! We got big problem.

[both chuckle]

- Looks like Animal's pet tumbleweeds

have broken out of the corral.

Tricycle's spook 'em, so you'll have to catch 'em on foot.

Now get going.

- Yee-haw! - Easy-peasy.

- Let's see which one of ya can bring back the most.

- Not so fast, tumbleweed.

Gotcha.

- Ha! Watch this.

Yeeeee-haaaaawww!

Easy there, lil' fella.

Just gotta get you back in the corral.

- One for me. - And one for me.

- One more to go.

- When I catch that tumbleweed, I'll be the sheriff.

- You ain't catchin' nothing.

- We'll see.

- Ooh! [both grunt]

- I got it! - No, I got it!

- Leggo! - Gimme that thing!

both: Huh?

- Aww. Good little tumbleweed.

Here you go.

- Wow, it's another tie.

- You two are both really good at helping people.

- But only one of us can be sheriff.

- Exactolutely!

- Well, there is one more event in the sheriff showdown.

Ya'll ready to settle this? [all speaking at once]

- Tumbleweeds need snack after all that.

Animal take them back to town.

Giddyap! Hiyah!

- Okey dokey, partner.

The rest of ya, saddle up, and let's head for the canyon.

- Yee-haw!

- Here it is: the toughest contest

in the Rootin' Tootin' Sheriff Showdown.

As you can see, the bridge over Molasses Canyon is out,

so we'll be pretending two townsfolk are

stranded on the other side.

- Ooh, that's us.

- I can't believe my flippers!

It's the third tie in a row.

all: Aww!

- Then how do we know which one of us should be sheriff?

- Partners. We got big problem.

- Animal, we already did that part, remember?

- Not tumbleweed problem.

Cookie Time Bandits are stealing milk and cookies

from saloon.

all: Oh, no!

- Come on! We gotta get back to town.

- [cluck]

- There they are!

- Wait! Stop!

- [clucks]

[evil laughter]

- We're too late. They took everything.

- Looks like our dreams

of opening a milk and cookie saloon have crumbled.

[sadly] Wocka wocka.

- Gonzo, this is our fault.

We were each so busy trying to be the only sheriff in town

that we didn't do the one thing that we promised to do.

- Protect the cookies.

Oh, cheesy chalupa, Piggy. You're right.

- I guess neither one of us deserves to be sheriff.

- Don't worry, best buddy.

We'll get through this together.

- Get through this... - Together.

[gasps]

Piggy, one of us doesn't deserve to be sheriff.

both: We both do!

all: Huh?

- Instead of tryin' to out-sheriff each other...

- We sheriff together.

- Remember the canyon? - Yep.

You lasso, I'll do the walking.

- You got it. [grunts]

- Now, hold her steady. Gently.

- [grunts]

- Almost there.

Aha! Freeze, varmints!

Your dessert-stealing days are over.

Whoa, Nelly!

- Oh, no, you don't!

We got you now, Cookie Time Bandits.

- Put your wings in the air!

- [clucks sadly]

- We did it!

We got the cookies and milk back.

I couldn't have done it without your help, Sheriff Gonzo.

- And I couldn't have done it without yours, Sheriff Piggy.

- I guess sometimes you can do more working together

than you can alone.

- Yer darn tootin'.

From now on, you've got yourself a partner.

Partner.

both: Yee-haw!

- Good news, cowpokes.

- Dessert time is back on!

- Hey, our cookies and milk.

[all cheer]

- How can we ever thank you?

- You don't have to thank us.

- Helping the town's just part of being a sheriff.

- Although I do reckon

some milk and cookies might go down nice.

[both chuckle] - Yep.

- Milk and cookies for everyone!

[all cheer]

- Oh, no! We got biggest problem.

Tumbleweeds getting away for real this time.

- Don't worry, Animal. We'll wrangle them rascals.

To keep healthy and safe,

wild animals have to stay in the wild.

Have fun playing, everybody.

- Everyone, incredible news.

Beaker and I discovered a new planet.

It appears that when a Koozebanian chicken

eats something that isn't from its home planet,

it turns into it.

Beaker, make a note of that.

I'd do it myself, but the chickie just ate my clipboard.

- Hey! Let's take chickie back to playroom.

Then chickie and Camilla can be best chickie friends.

These Koozebanian chickens live in the wild.

Miss Nanny said wild animals need to stay there, remember?

Okay, chickie.

Animal have to go now. [sniffles]

Bye-bye.
