Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who was Arnie?

Answer: the alligator

Arnie was Kermit's alligator friend who scared off Bernie the agent (played by Dom DeLouise), the balloon salesperson at the carnival was played by Richard Pryor, and the sailor in the El Sleezo Cafe was played by Telly Savalas.
2. What was Kermit's first mode of transportation?

Answer: a bicycle

He rode a bike to get started, but it was crushed by road construction vehicles. The bus was when The Electric Mayhem came to rescue them from the middle of the desert. A car came along when Fozzie joined. There wasn't a train involved at all.
3. Who played the owner of the El Sleezo Cafe?

Answer: James Coburn

Yup, the late James Coburn played him. He was tossed out of the place just before Kermit entered. He tells Kermit it's "the toughest, meanest, filthiest pest-hole on the face of the earth." Kermit asks why he doesn't complain to the owner, to which he says, "I am the owner."
4. What was the brand of Fozzie's car?

Answer: Studebaker

Kermit - "Gee, a Studebaker. Where'd you get it?" Fozzie - "Oh my uncle left it to me." K - "Oh. Is he dead?" F - "No, he's hibernating."
5. How often did Doc Hopper say Kermit would be earning $500 working for him?

Answer: every year

"There's $500 in it for you up front. $500 is just the beginning. You could be earning this much every year." Oooooooooo! I earned more allowance a year from my parents.
6. What kind of building did The Electric Mayhem occupy?

Answer: a church

Which they planned to turn into a coffee-house. Isn't that considered blasphemy?
7. Where did Gonzo say he was going to in order to become a movie star?

Answer: Bombay, India

Gonzo - "I wanted to go to Bombay, India to become a movie star." Fozzie - "You don't go to Bombay to become a movie star, you go where we're going. Hollywood." G - "Sure, if you wanna do it the easy way." F - "We picked up a wierdo."
8. How many billboards did Kermit and Fozzie encounter?

Answer: 3

First, the Doc Hopper billboard with Kermit's face on it. Then, the soda-pop ad which the Studebaker camoflaged with after "The Electric Mayhem" got done painting it. Then the billboard with the cream pie that got thrown at Doc Hopper's car after the gang crashed into it.
9. What kind of car did Mad Man Mooney sell them?

Answer: a station wagon

Mad Man Mooney (played by Milton Berle) tried to sell them a Volkswagen beetle for $2000, but it fell apart on him. Then Sweetums, after moving the VW out of the way, killed a fly on the price tag of a Ford Woody Wagon, ultimately turning it into a decimal point, changing the price from $1195.00 to $11.95, providing the chance for the gang to snap it up with the trade in allowance they were given.

A Mercedes or a pickup truck wasn't offered.
10. Who was the runner up to Miss Piggy in the beauty pageant?

Answer: Debbie Sue

Debbie Sue was the first runner up. Ami Jane helped Debbie Sue crown Miss Piggy. The other two names are unknown.
11. How many balloons did Gonzo wind up buying for Camilla?

Answer: a whole bunch

Gonzo offered to buy her a red or green balloon, then the balloon salesperson (Richard Pryor) suggested he buy her both, then when he told Gonzo girls go ga-ga when their boyfriends buy them a bunch of balloons, Gonzo went for it... and the rest is history. :-)
12. Professor Krassman told Kermit his machine would put enough voltage into his brain to light up what city?

Answer: Cincinnati

13. Professor Krassman told Miss Piggy that in ten seconds Kermit wouldn't know her from what?

Answer: kosher bacon

"THAT DOES IT!"
14. What patriotic song did Fozzie sing?

Answer: America, the Beautiful

"Patriotism swells in the heart of the American bear."
15. Answer Doc Hopper: "Boys this is Snake Walker. Tell 'em what you do, Snake."

Answer: kill frogs

"Kill frogs." Said in the most sleazy voice I ever heard.
16. Who turns huge after taking one of Dr. Bunsen Honeydew's insta-grow pills?

Answer: Animal

And just in time, too. That's who you want huge to scare off the likes of Doc Hopper... or anybody for that matter.
17. When they finally rolled into Hollywood, what landmark did they not drive past?

Answer: The Hollywood Bowl

18. What was the name of the character Kermit and the gang auditioned for?

Answer: Lew Lord

They had to almost kill the receptionist to get in (she was allergic to animal fur, and they turned up the electric fan and shook it at her until she collapsed), but when they got in, they finally got to meet the man, and he, without question, gave all of them the "Standard Rich and Famous" contract.
19. Which Muppet busted through the movie screen at the end?

Answer: Sweetums

Sweetums, who played Mad Man Mooney's assistant, busted through the screen and said, "I just knew I'd catch up with you guys!"
20. Who was this movie dedicated to?

Answer: Edgar Bergen

Edgar Bergen (who, with his puppet sidekick, Charlie McCarthy, played the judges for the beauty pageant Miss Piggy won) passed away on October 1, 1978, about a year before the movie was released. They also appeared on "The Muppet Show" before his passing. That's all, now take my "Great Muppet Caper" quiz.
