Quotes 

• Doc : Careful, Sprocket. These may be from some foreign planet.

  Emily 'Ma' Bear : Actually, they're from television. I recognize Fozzie's weirdo friends.

  Dr. Teeth : Yeah, and we're proud of it, too!

  Sam the Eagle : Why am I here?

• Doc : There's one worried frog.

  Count : Ah, that's ONE! One worried frog!

  Robin : No, he's not the only one.

  Count : That's TWO! Two worried frogs! Ha ha ha ha!

  [thunder and lightning] 

  Sprocket the Dog : Rrrr?

  Doc : Search me. More "small talk" I think.

• Floyd : [of baby Piggy]  There's Miss Hamhock when she was just a little sausage roll.

• Doc : Excuse me! You promised me a nice, quiet Christmas.

  Emily 'Ma' Bear : You think you're disappointed? I just took three months of surfing lessons for zip.

• Floyd : [seeing Miss Piggy arriving with Doc]  Yeah, and she don't look bad... for a pig.

• Emily 'Ma' Bear : I'm afraid we're running out of room. Two of you will have to sleep on hangers on a hook on the wall.

  Gonzo : What a fabulous idea!

  Animal : Love hanger! Love hanger!

  [laughs] 

  Floyd : That's the only way Animal ever sleeps, ma'am.

• Fozzie Bear : See, Mom? I told you it'd be easy!

  Emily 'Ma' Bear : They're weirdos, Fozzie.

  Fozzie Bear : Yeah?

  Emily 'Ma' Bear : But, they're nice weirdos.

  Fozzie Bear : Yeah.

  [chuckles quietly] 

• Emily 'Ma' Bear : Aren't they adorable?

  Oscar the Grouch : Hey, don't encourage them!

• Emily 'Ma' Bear : There. Fozzie's stocking is hung by the mantle so Santa will bring him a present.

  Fozzie Bear : Aw, Ma, this is embarrassing. I mean, I'm not a cub anymore, I'm a grown bear.

  Emily 'Ma' Bear : Oh. Well, I'll take it down.

  Fozzie Bear : Oh, no, I didn't say that.

• Robin : Speaking of presents, Grover, I'd like *you* to have this Fraggle pebble.

  [gives the Fraggle pebble to Grover] 

  Grover : [gasps in astonishment as he accepts the pebble]  This Fraggle pebble here is for *me*? Oh, I just love Christmas! Ah-ha!

• Kermit : Another crisis solved.

  Robin : Yeah, there sure are a lot of us here.

  Kermit : Well, all families start to come together.

  Robin : We always get together at Christmas.

  Kermit : Yeah, life would just pass in a blur if it weren't for times like this.

• Robin : [as he and Kermit search for Fraggles at Fraggle Rock]  Do you think this is really Fraggle Rock?

  Kermit : Well, I don't know, but if I were a Fraggle, this is the kind of place I'd hang out.

• Rowlf : Oh, Mrs. Bear, I've been chasin' the truck, and boy - whoa!

  [slips on the icy patch] 

  Emily 'Ma' Bear : [as Rowlf gets up]  Oh, my. I guess Fozzie didn't tell you about the icy patch.

  Rowlf : No, I guess he didn't. Anyway, my name's Rowlf the dog; I've come for the holidays.
