We take you now to Kermit the Frog with another fast breaking news story!

Kermit

[ Kermit is talking to the horse. ]  I see. So that used to be a pumpkin, and you used to be a mouse, huh?  [ The horse snorts. ]  Mm. I wonder if the audience would believe that. Uh. Oh! Hi ho, this is Kermit the Frog of Sesame Street News, and I'm standing here, uh, next to the horse that used to be a mouse, and on this side right here, we have -- Cinderella!

Cinderella

That's me!  [ giggles ]

Kermit

Uh huh. And over here, we've got Cinderella's Fairy Godmother! 

Godmother

Righto!

Kermit

Mm hmm. And this is a very exciting moment, because in just one second, Cinderella's Fairy Godmother is going to make a beautiful gown so Cinderella can go to the ball and meet the prince! Mm? 

Godmother

Yes. She'll hop in that coach over there -- 

Kermit

Right...

Godmother

And she'll go to the Prince's place!

Kermit

Aw, that sounds just wonderful. So, Fairy Godmother -- do your stuff! 

Godmother

Right!

Kermit

Okay. Tighten in on her there, folks. 

Godmother

Eye of worm, more or less, make Cinderella a beautiful dress!  [ She waves her wand, and there's a puff of smoke... ]

Cinderella

Ewwwww! This is no dress! This is a BATHING SUIT! I can't wear THIS! Ewwww!

Godmother

Oh, dear... I'm so sorry, Cinderella. I made a mistake, didn't I?

Cinderella

Uh huh.

Godmother

Well, I'll have to try it a-gain!

Kermit

Ah hah, do you see that, folks? She is going to try a-gain. Carry on.

Godmother

Ahem. Eye of worm, more or less, make Cinderella a beautiful dress!  [ She waves her wand again, and in another puff of smoke... ]

Cinderella

PAJAMAS? Ewwww! What IS this? I can't wear this to the ball! Ewwww!

Godmother

I'm sorry, Cinderella, I made a mistake. I'll try a-gain.

Kermit

Ah ha, you see that, folks, Cinderella's Fairy Godmother is going to try a-gain; she is not going to give up. 

Godmother

No, no. All right, but I'll use my super duper magic words for this! Ahem. Nose of bat, possum thigh... lion's foot, and ten french fries! Tail of mouse, fur of teddy -- make Cinderella a DRESS already!  [ She waves her wand, and in a puff of smoke... ]

Cinderella

Ewwwww! I'm in my RAGS again! Oh, no! Ewww, ewwww, ewww, ewwwww!  [ Horrified, Cinderella runs back into the house. ]

Godmother

Oh, I'm so sorry, Cinderella -- please...  [ The Fairy Godmother follows Cinderella. ] 

Kermit

[ wearing Cinderella's dress: ]  Ah, wait a second... uh, Cinderella! Come back here!

[ The two Coachmen approach, and drag Kermit to the pumpkin coach. ]

Coach #1

Okay, Cinderella -- let's go! You're gonna be late for the ball! C'mon!

Kermit

I've got her dress on! No, no! I'm not Cinderella! She's inside the house!

Coach #2

Come on, you look lovely...

Coach #1

You're gonna be the belle of the ball! 

Kermit

Wait a second! I don't WANT to go to the ball!

Coach #1

Yeah, don't worry about a thing.

Kermit

Uh, this is Kermit the Frog, returning you to your regularly scheduled program... this is embarrassing... 

Coach #1

Think we can do anything about her face? 

Kermit

No, no, no. What kind of food do they serve there, anyhow?
