The Muppet Show1976

The Newsman:
Here's a Muppet News Flash. Orchestra leader Zuben Beckmesser was nearly electrocuted at the Metropolitan Opera today when he absentmindedly inserted his baton into an electrical outlet.

[an orchestra conductor walks up, holding a baton, his hair messed up and his body shaking; the Newsman sees him]

The Newsman:
Uh, Mr. Beckmesser, I understand, according to doctors, you would've died instantly had you not been such a poor conductor.

[the Newsman laughs at his own joke; the conductor jams his baton in the Newsman's nose]

The Newsman:
I'm sorry! I take it back!

[the conductor nods and removes his baton]
