The Muppet Show1976

Sam the Eagle:
Excuse me, Mr. Mostel.

Zero Mostel:
Yes?

Sam the Eagle:
I am Sam the Eagle.

Zero Mostel:
I am glad to know you.

Sam the Eagle:
Yes, glad to know you. I am the upholder of decency and dignity for this show.

Zero Mostel:
Are you really?

Sam the Eagle:
Yes. [behind Sam, Zero mocks him, though Sam doesn't know it] I believe this program is trivial and not fit for family viewing. [looks behind him and sees Zero not mocking him anymore] It is disgracefully lacking in culture.

Zero Mostel:
[mockingly] It is disgracefully lacking in culture.

Sam the Eagle:
Hmm, I'm glad you agree with me. Yes. [Zero takes a hammer and raises it over Sam's head] I personally have always felt that this program... [looks at Zero again, who drops hammer behind]... must... must, I say, be cleansed of all nonsense... [Zero now takes a gun and aims it at Sam]... and silliness! [looks at Zero once more, who puts gun in his own mouth] Don't you agree with me, sir?

Zero Mostel:
[taking a glass of water and pouring it out] Of course! It must be cleansed!

Sam the Eagle:
Now, it seems to me that you and I... [behind Sam, Zero continues to mock him]... think alike. [looks at Zero again, who stops mocking him] True?

Zero Mostel:
True.

Sam the Eagle:
A pleasure talking to you, sir. A man of dignity. [walks off]

Zero Mostel:
[mockingly] Dignity! Always dignity! Dignity, dignity! [mimics squawking like an eagle]
