And now, for another fast-breaking news story, we take you to Kermit the Frog!

Kermit

[ Kermit is dancing with a female frog. ]  So, listen, uh... what's a nice girl like you doing in a palace like this anyhow, hmm? Oh. Ahem. Pardon me.  [ Noticing the camera, he ditches the girl. ]  Uh -- hello there, this is Kermit the Frog of Sesame Street News, and I'm speaking to you now from the palace where Prince Charming is back there dancing with Cinderella. Right at this very moment. Let us see if we can get a word with the happy couple, huh?

[ Kermit tries to get the dancing couple's attention, circling around and around them. ]

Kermit

Uh, pardon me, excuse me, Prince Charming, uh, pardon me, uh, this is Kermit the Frog of Sesame Street News, uh, Prince Charming, uh, Kermit the Frog, uh, Cinderella -- can I, hold it one second...  

[ Kermit finally gets Cinderella's attention. ]

Kermit

Listen, hey, can I ask you, uh, to describe your outfit for our home audience out there?

Cinderella

Oh, well, I'd love to.

[ The Prince shoves Cinderella out of the way. ]

Prince

Why, yes, I'd be delighted to. You see, I have on my magnificent sky blue velvet suit with tapered trousers, and ruffles at the neck and wrist.

Kermit

Uh, yeah, that's very nice, Prince Charming, but, uh...

[ The clock begins to chime. ]

Cinderella

It's twelve o'clock already!

Kermit

Oh...

Prince

On my waist is the golden belt encrusted with rubies and twinkly things.

Kermit

Yeah, uh...

Cinderella

I have to LEAVE!  [ Cinderella runs off. ] 

Kermit

But...

Prince

Now, on my head is the crown, with the family jewels.

Kermit

Uh, Prince Charming, I think there's...

Prince

Now, of course, here on my fingers, the terribly expensive turquoise ring that Dad gave me. 

Kermit

Listen, Prince Charming, Cinderella just left.

Prince

Oh. 

Kermit

Yeah.

Prince

Hey ho! What's THIS?

Kermit

Oh, look at that! 

Prince

Why, it looks like... a glass slipper!

Kermit

That's Cinderella's glass slipper! 

Prince

It's beautiful! I must find that girl!

Kermit

Oh! Oh, yeah -- you want to find the girl, because then you can marry her, and live happily ever after! Right?

Prince

Wrong! Then I can get the other slipper, and have a PAIR! One for each foot... OOOPS!

[ The Prince drops the slipper, which smashes on the ground. ]

Kermit

Oh... you broke it... now you'll never be able to find her and live happily ever after... Prince? 

Prince

Mm. Easy come, easy go.

Kermit

Oh.

Prince

The Prince is free to dance! Who'd like to dance? Get your tickets!

Kermit

Well, uh, this is Kermit the Frog of Sesame Street News, and I'm returning you now to your, uh --

Kermit
