Bang: A Fozzie belt buckle? Can I get a Kermit instead?
Cashier: We're all out of Kermits.
Pound: We'll, can they have that one?
(The cashier turned to the display where BABY KERMIT and BABY FOZZIE were standing)
Cashier: I'm sorry, those are for display only.
POUND: Thanks anyways. Come on, guys.
(Baby Kermit turns to Baby Fozzie)
Baby Kermit: See? I told you we're never gonna get played with.
Baby Fozzie: But we're just here to sell pixie dust.
NAWT: All right! Ball pit!
Baby Kermit: Hey, hey, wait a minute.
(He saw the Nerdlucks entering the Never Play Land through the ball pit with Pepé–and Kermit!)
Blanko: Splash!
Baby Kermit: I think I just found our ticket to playtime. Come on, let's go!
Baby Fozzie: I better not. I don't want to get in trouble with the pixie dust people.
Baby Kermit: Fine. You stay here with the Belt Buckle. Me, I'm gonna get played with! See ya, baby Fozz!
(He left)
Baby Fozzie: Oh, boy.
Belt Buckle: (BUZZES)
(INT. NEVER PLAY LAND, PIXIE PALACE – DAY.)
Nawt: Oh, no! Hot lava!
(The Nerdlucks push Kermit and Pepé down a slide. They landed into a ball pit. The Nerdlucks were right behind them)
Bupkus: Splash!
POUND: Come on, guys!
Bang: Coming!
(They leave the ball pit, leaving Kermit and Pepé behind)
Pepé: I loved playtime!
Kermit: It's a little unsanitary but... Ho!
(Abruptly, he is pulled down under the ball pit and Baby Kermit rises)
Baby Kermit: Playtime's the best!
POUND: Guys, don't forget your friends.
(Pound dragged Pepé and Baby Kermit out of the ball pit)
(EXT. ENTRANCE TO PIXIE PALACE, DOWNTOWN DISNEY – DAY. They exit the building)
(INT. LOCAL GYMNASIUM, HAPPINESS HOTEL – DAY. TINKER BELL and THE MUPPETS (Fozzie, Beaker, Rowlf, Link Hogthrob, Miss Piggy, and Gonzo) enjoy relaxing until the door opened and the Nerdlucks enter)
Bupkus: Hi, Muppets. Bye, Muppets.
Pepé: Hi, everybody! We're home!
Tinker Bell: Hey, welcome back! How was Pixie... Ugh! What smells like chicken fingers?
(Baby Kermit enters the penthouse)
Baby Kermit: H-ho, Kermit the Frog, here.
(The Muppets (Floyd, Tinker Bell, Fozzie, Scooter, Gonzo, Miss Piggy, Link Hogthrob, Bunsen, Dr. Teeth, and Rowlf) knew that Miss Piggy is missing)
Miss Piggy: Uh... What happened to Kermit?
Pepé: He says the plastic in the ball pit made him shrink!
Baby Kermit: Yeah, yeah, that's right, prawn. Say, when's the playtime start around here?
Tinker Bell: All right, where's the real Kermit?
(INT. PIXIE PALACE – DAY. Kermit rose up from the ball pit, gets out, and tries to open the door put it's locked)
Kermit: Blast.
(He uses the air vent. He climbs up the air vent. He walks through until he falls out...)
(INT. STORAGE, PIXIE PALACE – NIGHT. ...and landed into the crowd of happy meal toys)
Neptuna: Well, hello!
Kermit: (GASPS)
Neptuna: Welcome to the support group for discarded Fun Meal Toys. We're just about to begin. T-Bone?
(T-BONE appeared)
Neptuna: Would you find him a seat.
T-Bone: Right this way, sir.
(He sits down and speaks up)
Kermit: I think there's been a mistake. You see, I was just left in the ball pit and I...
Neptuna: Oh, we've all been left in the ball pit of life, haven't we? Yes, Tae-Kwon Doe? You have a question?
Tae-Kwon Doe: What? Oh, I'm sorry, this is just my play feature. Hi-yah!
Neptuna: That's super. Now why don't we just go around the room and introduce ourselves? My name is Neptuna.
TOYS: Hi, Neptuna.
Neptuna: I was from the Mermaid Battle Squadron tie-in. Summer '98. I was thrown away, and that's okay.
T-Bone: I'm T-Bone, leader of the Steak Force. We battled the Vegi-Tanarians for dinner table dominance. Well, I never got played with.
Koala Kopter: G'day. The name's Koala Kopter from the Down-Underables. I got swapped for a Kangaroo Kanoe!
Recycle Ben: My name is Recycle Ben and I got recycled!
Franklin: (STAMMERS) I don't get it. Why don't the kids like me? I'm like history, but on wheels!
Vlad the Engineer: Nobody wanted to board the Vampire Express.
(The howling wolf on top of the train appears)
Roxy Boxy: My name is Roxy Boxy. I was recalled because... (accidentally hits Lizard Wizard with her boxing glove) Sorry!
Nervous Sys-Tim: I mean, who wants to see an accurate depiction of the human nervous system when they're chowing down on a burger.
Pizza Bot: Kid not like Pizza Bot. Pizza Pot sad.
Kermit: My name is Kermit.
ALL: Hi, Kermit.
Kermit: And I need to go.
T-Bone: Wait, don't run away from your problems, brother.
Kermit: Look, I need to get back to my friends.
Neptuna: We're your friends now, Kermit? Look around you. We've all been discarded and we need to stick together. Isn't that right, Super Pirate?
Super Pirate: Yar.
(INT. LOCAL GYMNASIUM, HAPPINESS HOTEL – DAY. Baby Kermit is feet skating)
Baby Kermit: Playtime's coming super-soon
Doo-dah, doo-dah
Pepé: Guys, I'm telling you, this is the real Kermit!
Baby Kermit: ...all playtime day
Tinker Bell: Pepé, he's like three inches tall.
Fozzie: Yeah, but he's a pretty good ice dancer.
(Baby Kermit spin jumps)
MUPPETS: Whoa!
(The Muppets (Fozzie, Dr. Teeth, Scooter, Beaker, Zoot, Animal, Floyd, Beauregard, Link Hogthrob, Camilla, Gonzo, Janice, Rowlf, Bunsen, and Lew Zealand) applauded)
Tinker Bell: Well, I'm gonna go find out what happened to our friend.
(Baby Kermit keeps skating)
Tinker Bell: Yoo-hoo! Little Kermit guy!
Baby Kermit: Oh, playtime day
Tinker Bell: Listen, about this playtime...
Baby Kermit: Playtime? Hey, I'll be the princess.
Tinker Bell: Hey! Come back here!
(Baby Kermit comes to Fozzie)
Baby Kermit: Get along, teddy bear! Hee-haw!
(He slaps him and skates)
Fozzie: Could somebody tackle him, please?
(Baby Kermit keeps skating)
Baby Kermit: Playtime is your friend
(Abruptly, Tinker Bell tackles him)
Fozzie: Thank you.
(INT. PARTY ROOM, PIXIE PALACE – DAY. The Fun Meal Toy support group finish the affirmation)
TOYS: Even though I have been thrown away, I am not garbage.
(They applauded. Poor Kermit. He doesn't know what to do)
Kermit: (SIGHS) How am I gonna get up there?
Neptuna: All right, everyone, this is a good time for some reenactment therapy. Let's break into groups of two. And let's have Beef Stewardes with Ghost Burger…
Ghost Burger: Oooo!
Neptuna: Bozu the Ninja Clown with Funky Monk.
Funky Monk: Wassup.
Neptuna: And then Conderman
Conderman: All right!
Neptuna: With DJ Blu-Jay. Lizard Wizard? I'm gonna put you with Kermit.
(Lizard Wizard rolls up to him)
Neptuna: Now Kermit, you are a child who has received this toy. Pick him up and play with him.
(Kermit grabs Lizard Wizard)
Kermit: Oh, boy. Play, play, play.
Lizard Wizard: Oh. (LAUGHS)
Neptuna: Good. Now, to simulate the abandonment, discard him.
Lizard Wizard: What?
(Kermit lets go of Lizard Wizard, dropping him)
Neptuna: And walk over there next to Gary Grappling Hook.
Kermit: Gary Grappling Hook?
Gary Grappling Hook: Hey there.
Kermit: So, wouldn't it be more devastating if I left the room?
Neptuna: Oh, what a fabulous idea! Thank you, Kermit.
Kermit: Gary, do you mind?
Gary Grappling Hook: Yeah, sure, whatever.
(Kermit grabs grabs Gary Grappling Hook)
Gary Grappling Hook: Whoa! Oh, yeah!
(Kermit pushes Gary Grappling Hook's trigger and his grappling hook flew up and caught the air vent)
Gary Grappling Hook: That was awesome.
(Kermit hoists himself up into the ceiling where he will have his chance to escape Pixie Palace)
Neptuna: Now, how did that make you feel?
Lizard Wizard: Well, let's see now. It made me happy when I was played with, but sad when he left.
Neptuna: Good. Okay, good, hold that thought. We're going to have Kermit come back in now. Kermit?
(Neptuna and Lizard Wizard turned and saw Gary Grappling Hook)
Gary Grappling Hook: Uh, he left.
(Abruptly, Lizard Wizard burst into tears)
Lizard Wizard: (SOBBING) No!
(INT. LOCAL GYMNASIUM, HAPPINESS HOTEL – DAY. Tinker Bell hatched a rescue mission to the Muppets (Pepé, Link Hogthrob, Dr. Teeth, Lew Zealand, Fozzie, Rowlf, Floyd, Animal, Bunsen, Beauregard, and Beaker)
Tinker Bell: Okay. To save Kermit, we need to find a way to get inside Pixie Palace.
(Baby Kermit is all tied up. Miss Piggy is next to him)
Baby Kermit: So, I used to work at Pixie Palace. You like honey mustard sauce? Yeah, you do.
Tinker Bell: Come on, guys, think. How do we get inside?
Gonzo: We could jimmy the lock.
Lew Zealand: Let's act our way in!
Scooter: Oh! We could drive a truck through the front door!
(Until…)
Kermit: Or, you could use the drive-through.
(Tinker Bell and her gang (Beauregard, Sweetums, Beaker, Rowlf, Bunsen, Pepé, Janice, Fozzie, Gonzo, Floyd, Lew Zealand, Dr. Teeth, Scooter, Link Hogthrob, Zoot, and Animal) saw the real Kermit)
ALL: Kermit!
(Miss Piggy hugs Kermit)
Miss Piggy: You're back!
(Then Kermit turns to Baby Kermit)
Kermit: So, what do you have to say for yourself, Amphibian-American?
(Baby Kermit gulps)
(INT. STORAGE, POULTRY PALACE – DAWN. Kermit and Baby Kermit hold the support group)
Baby Kermit: I've done some things that I'm not proud of. I've spent a lot of playtime thinking I was the prize that came with the meal, but with the help of my sponsor, I know now that the real prize is inside of each and every one of us.
(The Fun Meal toys applauded. The boxing glove is accidentally shot by Roxy Boxy and hits Lizard Wizard)
Roxy Boxy: Oh! Sorry.
