"Easy... It's right here in the script." is Scooter's line in the Muppet Movie, when he's asked to explain how he and the band found Fozzie and Kermit in the middle of the desert.

There's no way I'm going to believe you two don't have every line of that movie memorized, so just what exactly are you trying to pull by leaving it off the references page?

Actually, I have no strong feelings one way or the other towards Muppets. I may have seen the Muppet Movie at some point maybe--I recall having seen two movies with Muppets in them, and one of them was Muppet Treasure Island. But I certainly don't remember it line by line.

Kyle, on the other hand, probably does know it line by line, so chances are it is a reference he put into the script that I didn't recognize.

Oh, speaking of inadvertent references, it's been pointed out to me that Snowball looks very much like Cierra Wilson, particularly when she was six. I can't refute that. So there you go.

It's not a specific Muppet line, the joke has been used in so many things you can't just put that one down as a sole reference. but ya we should have mentioned it

I'll know they're coasting on Muppet References when I see reference to the following:

"I seem to have lost my sense of direction"
"Oh? Have you tried Hare Krishna?" (or Harry Krishna, or Reverend H Krishna).

"That's a Myth! A Myth!"
(young lady pops into screen/view) "Yeth?"

"Bear Left!"
"Right Frog!" (one of my personal favourites)

"Oh Kermie, whisper sweet nothings in my ear!"
"Motorcycle Cop".

"Sparkling Muskatel. One of the finest wines of Idaho"

"If I'm not funny I don't think I'll be able to live with myself."
"Well you'll just have to find another apartment then"

Or just go to the imdb quote page for the Muppet Movie. Classic lines :smile:
