Miss Piggy : [holding onto a cliff edge by her fingers] Never mind. Just get me out of here.
Wayne : [noticing Uncle Deadly's boots] Say, I know those boots. Weren't you a flamenco dancer in Kansas City?
Uncle Deadly : Why yes, I was.
Wayne : Harry's Boom Boom Room?
Uncle Deadly : You caught my act?
Wayne : I could never figure out how you did that passe double thing, though.
Miss Piggy : Paso doble.
Uncle Deadly : Oh, quite simple, my boy. Quite simple. Music, maestro, please.
Miss Piggy : [exasperated] Music?
[Uncle Deadly starts to dance. Miss Piggy turns to the camera in disbelief. Uncle Deadly's feet come dangerously close to her hands]
Miss Piggy : What? Hey, hey. Cool it up there.

Miss Piggy : I suppose you think that's funny!
