Tomorrow
is the special day for sweethearts everywhere... So what better way to
celebrate than with The Couple of The Eighties? Yes, joining me now -- the
Sean Penn and Madonna of the Muppet world...
|
|
Kermit
|
The
what?
|
|
Joan
|
Kermit
the Frog and Miss Piggy. It's nice to have you both with us!
|
|
Piggy
|
Hello,
Joan dear.
|
|
Kermit
|
Oh,
thank you, Joan. It's very nice to be here.
|
|
Joan
|
Oh!
And look at you... What a dress she has here! [ Piggy is
wearing a very Couple of the Eighties pink and lime outfit. ]
|
|
Kermit
|
Yes,
it's very special.
|
|
Piggy
|
Could
I have a close-up of the hat, please?
|
|
Joan
|
The
hat's wonderful. I love...
|
|
Piggy
|
There's
little kissys on the hat here.
|
|
Joan
|
Little
kissys on the hat.
|
|
Kermit
|
Is
that real candy?
|
|
Piggy
|
Yeah,
don't touch it. I'm gonna eat it later.
|
|
Joan
|
It's
a very beautiful outfit.
|
|
Piggy
|
Thank
you very much, Joanie. You look, uh, attractive too.
|
|
Kermit
|
Sure.
It's a nice outfit, Joan.
|
|
Joan
|
Well,
thank you, Kermit.
|
|
Kermit
|
Yes,
you look very pretty today.
|
|
Piggy
|
Yes...
|
|
Joan
|
Thank
you! Do you two have special plans for Valentine's Day?
|
|
Piggy
|
Yes,
they're personal.
|
|
Kermit
|
Um...
what?
|
|
Joan
|
They're
personal?
|
|
Piggy
|
Personal.
|
|
Kermit
|
Oh,
yeah. They're personal.
|
|
Joan
|
Personal.
|
|
Kermit
|
Mmmm.
|
|
Joan
|
Hmm.
|
|
Piggy
|
Yes.
We plan to have a nice little... evening.
|
|
Joan
|
A
romantic evening?
|
|
Piggy
|
Mmm
hmm.
|
|
Joan
|
What's
your idea of a romantic evening?
|
|
Piggy
|
Well,
first of all -- two of us, as opposed to three.
|
|
Joan
|
Okay.
|
|
Piggy
|
That's
for starters. And, well, Kermit, as a frog, likes to be in surroundings that
he's used to.
|
|
Kermit
|
Yes.
|
|
Joan
|
Like
water?
|
|
Piggy
|
I'm
not talking about a swamp... I mean, he's used to dark surroundings,
which I believe are romantic.
|
|
Joan
|
Dark
surroundings...
|
|
Piggy
|
Frogs
are used to that.
|
|
Joan
|
Is
he romantic?
|
|
Kermit
|
Uh...
Do we have to talk about stuff like this?
|
|
Piggy
|
Trust
me, it's love!
|
|
Kermit
|
It's
a professional relationship. You know.
|
|
Piggy
|
I
knew it.
|
|
Joan
|
All
right, all right. This brings up a subject... There seems to be some
question about your status right now.
|
|
Piggy
|
There
is no status.
|
|
Kermit
|
That's
true. It's a status of nothing.
|
|
Joan
|
I
thought you got married.
|
|
Piggy
|
No,
the status... There's no status. There's just love.
|
|
Joan
|
Just
love.
|
|
Kermit
|
Uh,
yes. Uh. Actually, why don't we change the subject? Why don't we talk about
something else?
|
|
Joan
|
I'd
like to know what it was about Miss Piggy that you originally fell for. What
are her qualities?
|
|
Piggy
|
Yeah!
|
|
Kermit
|
Well.
She's a very powerful lady. Y'know. I mean, she's, uh, she's...
someone you don't tangle with, so to speak. You see. And this is one of her
most attractive parts, I think.
|
|
Joan
|
She
has a unique personality. Unique qualities.
|
|
Piggy
|
But
Kermie? Kermie?
|
|
Kermit
|
Yes,
Miss Piggy.
|
|
Piggy
|
What
about, you know, the other things?
|
|
Kermit
|
Oh.
Well. Uh.
|
|
Piggy
|
About
the kissy-kissies? And the huggy-wuggies?
|
|
Kermit
|
Yes.
She's. Yes, anything you say. It's fine.
|
|
Piggy
|
He
talks like that in public, because he's shy.
|
|
Kermit
|
Mmmm.
|
|
Piggy
|
In
person... watch out!
|
|
Joan
|
Yeah?
|
|
Kermit
|
That's
right. That's what I was going to say. You just watch out. That's why...
Mmmm.
|
|
Piggy
|
We're
talking GANGBUSTERS!
|
|
Joan
|
What
is it about...
|
|
Piggy
|
We're
talking, y'know, like, three days! We're talking, like, you know?
Like, ROOM SERVICE! Look out!
|
|
Joan
|
Tell
us something about Miss Piggy that she would just die if we all knew.
|
|
Kermit
|
Well.
Uh.
|
|
Piggy
|
Or
somebody else'll die if you all know.
|
|
Kermit
|
Well,
she's an interesting sight in lingerie. I must say that. I mean. Uh, yes.
|
|
Piggy
|
Awww,
Kermie. Isn't that sweet.
|
|
Joan
|
Does
she wear real feminine, frilly stuff?
|
|
Kermit
|
It's,
uh, she has all kinds of things with buckles and snaps, and stuff... It's
really just...
|
|
Piggy
|
Are
you insinuating that I wear a girdle?
|
|
Kermit
|
No,
I don't know what that stuff is.
|
|
Joan
|
And
I'm not about to take a guess! Tell us something -- what did you fall
in love with? What are the qualities that you fell in love with, with
Kermit?
|
|
Piggy
|
Well,
to begin with... Flippers.
|
|
Joan
|
Flippers?
|
|
Piggy
|
Flippers.
Number one. Then, after Flippers, I'd say Green. And then there's that
certain... well, in Spanish, you say, je ne sais quoi.
|
|
Joan
|
Or
joie de vivre.
|
|
Kermit
|
That's
Spanish?
|
|
Piggy
|
Joie
de viv-ra...
|
|
Joan
|
That's
a good one.
|
|
Piggy
|
...
about a frog. It's something that only pigs could understand.
|
|
Joan
|
Okay.
I'll buy that.
|
|
Piggy
|
You
have to.
|
|
Joan
|
I
don't have any other choice. You two have a wonderfully romantic day
tomorrow.
|
|
Piggy
|
Don't
touch him!
|
|
Kermit
|
Oh,
thank you.
|
|
Joan
|
[
laughs ] Excuse me, Miss Piggy.
|
|
Piggy
|
That's
all right.
|
|
Kermit
|
It's
okay.
|
|
Piggy
|
Thank
you. Happy Valentine's Day.
|
|
Joan
|
To
you, too.
|
|
Kermit
|
And
Happy Valentine's Day out there!
|
|
Piggy
|
To
all of vous. Kissy kissy!
|
|
Joan
|
We'll
be back.
|
|
Piggy
|
We'll
be back. Not us. Her.
|
|
Kermit
|
I
won't...
|
