Kermit : Just a little bit... further, Gonzo.
Gonzo : [panting] But... But I'm starved.
Fozzie : Starved? I thought you were Gonzo.
Kermit : Fozzie!
Fozzie : No, I'm Fozzie, he's Gonzo, you're Kermit, remember?

[Fozzie, Kermit, and Gonzo look at what Nanny was mixing in a bowl]
Fozzie : Gee, this must be what Nanny made for our snack.
Kermit : Oh, what is it, Fozzie?
Fozzie : Gosh, I don't know.
Kermit : Let me see.
[smells it]
Kermit : Phew! This stuff smells bad.
Gonzo : Oh, yeah? Heh! Let me see.
[smells it]
Gonzo : P.U.! What is this stuff?
Kermit : Shh! Listen, you guys.
Nanny : [on the phone] Uh-huh. I followed the recipe exactly, but it looks a little strange.
Gonzo : You can say that again, Nanny.

Kermit : Gonzo, what are you doing?
Gonzo : Let's face it, men. We gotta get rid of that stuff.
[gives everyone coats]
Gonzo : Here, put these on.
Kids : Huh?
Scooter : Gonzo, what's this stuff for?
Gonzo : A dangerous mission requires proper equipment, Scooter. Now suit up and follow me.
[heads to the door]
Gonzo : Okay, men, let's go!
Piggy : Stop calling us men, Gonzo. Skeeter and moi are ladies.
Gonzo : Sorry.

Animal : [after getting his gruel] Yucky.
Fozzie : I'll have a tuna sandwich and a glass of milk, please.

Rowlf : [sniffs his gruel after it is served] Man, this smells worse than yesterday.
Piggy : [after getting her gruel] I hate this stuff.
Mr. Bumble : WHAT?
Piggy : Um, I said, "My plate feels rough."
Gonzo : [after getting his gruel] Hey, kinda skimpy, isn't it? How about some more?
Mr. Bumble : MORE?
Gonzo : Okay, okay! Boy, what a grouch.
-
[while watching the other kids eat their gruel]
Piggy : Yuck-o! Blech! Ptu! How can they eat this stuff?
Rowlf : Gee, Piggy, maybe if you pretend it's something you like, it won't taste so bad.
[Rowlf pretends his food is a bowl of dog biscuits and eats it]
Piggy : Okay. I'll pretend mine is a chocolate sundae.
[Piggy's gruel turns into a chocolate sundae]
Piggy : Woo-wee! It worked!
Kermit : Hey, neat! I'll pretend mine is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
[Kermit's food turns into a peanut butter and jelly sandwich]
Gonzo : Wow! I'll have bologna and marshmallows on rye with pickles.
[Gonzo's food becomes a sandwich with bologna, marshmallows, and pickles]
Scooter : Hey, this is great! I want a bucket of ice cream!
Nanny : Hi, kids.
[the fantasy ends as Nanny enters the nursery with a bucket]
Kids : Hi, Nanny.
Skeeter : [smells the inside of Nanny's bucket] Phew! What's in the bucket, Nanny?
Scooter : Yeah, it doesn't smell like ice cream.

[while fleeing in their fantasy, the kids approach a man]
Man : What's the matter, kids?
Gonzo : [panting] Nanny's slop! It's after us!
Man : Nanny's slop? Oh, no! Head for the hills!
[a crowd of people run away screaming]
Man #2 : It's Nanny's slop!

Nanny : Okay, kids. Dinner's ready.
Kids : Uh-oh.
Nanny : And I have a special surprise for you.
Gonzo : I-Is it in that bowl, Nanny?
Nanny : Why, yes it is, Gonzo.
Gonzo : That's what I was afraid of.
Nanny : And as a special treat, we're going to have a picnic right here in the nursery.
Fozzie : Gee, I wonder why we're eating in here.
Rowlf : Are you kidding? Probably won't be able to walk after we eat this crud.
Fozzie : Oh.
Scooter : Well, at least we don't have to worry about picnic ants.
Skeeter : Yeah. No way any bugs will touch that stuff.
-
[the kids are surprised that their dinner is really a bowl of fried chicken]
Skeeter : What a relief!
Nanny : What do you mean, kids?
Gonzo : Well... Well, we thought we were gonna have to eat that smelly stuff you were mixing in the kitchen today.
Nanny : What? Ho ho! Gonzo, that was your after-dinner surprise.
Kids : Huh?
Gonzo : Oh, no. It's dessert.
Nanny : Come on. I'll show you.
Rowlf : We're done for.
Skeeter : Yeah, this is probably our last meal.

[Nanny takes the kids to the bathroom]
Nanny : Well, kids, what do you think?
[the kids are amazed at what they see]
Skeeter : Gee!
Kermit : Look!
Piggy : Ooh! Nanny made new walls for the bathroom.
Nanny : No, Piggy. I put up new wallpaper. That stuff I was mixing today was wallpaper paste.
Kids : It was?
Nanny : Uh-huh. It holds the paper to the wall, kind of like glue.
Kermit : Gee!
Piggy : Wow!
Skeeter : Neat-o!
Kermit : Gee, Gonzo, that stuff wasn't dinner after all.
Gonzo : Aw, I knew what it was all the time, Nanny.
[Gonzo trips and falls backwards, landing in the bucket of wallpaper paste]
Gonzo : Ho-ho! Oh, no! It's got me! Help! Let me go!
