Frank Welker: Kermit, Beaker

Quotes 

• Piggy : [about baby Robin]  He's adorable, just like his Uncle Kermie.

  Kermit : Uncle Kermie? I never asked to be an uncle.

  Skeeter : Kermit! Nobody asks to be an uncle. Your big sister had babies, that makes you an uncle, and the babies are your nieces and nephews.

  Kermit : Oh, that's different.

• Piggy : One day, you and I might have a little tadpole of our own. Wouldn't that be nice, Kermit?

  Kermit : Uh, gee, I, uh, uh...

  Piggy : WOULDN'T IT?

  Kermit : Right. Sure, Piggy.

  Piggy : And we can rock our little polliwog and tell him sweet stories like Piggy in Wonderland.

  Gonzo : You mean Alice in Wonderland, don'tcha?

  Piggy : [grabs Gonzo's nose]  If I meant Alice, I would have said Alice, you nerd!

• Kermit : Hello there, little nephew Robin. I'm your Uncle Kermit.

  Robin : [thinking]  Boy, what a big frog! I wonder if I will look like that when I grow up.

• Fozzie : I know, Kermit. Your nephew, Robin, would probably love to hear one of my funny jokes.

  Kermit : I don't think he'll understand your jokes, Fozzie, but then none of us ever do either. So, go ahead.

  Fozzie : Here's one you'll just love, Robin. Why are fish so smart? Give up? 'Cause they swim in schools. Get it? Ha ha ha ha!

  [Robin spits water at Fozzie] 

  Fozzie : Oh, yuck!

  Kermit : No, no, Robin. You shouldn't spit water when Fozzie tells you a joke, no matter how bad it is.

• Gonzo : [about Robin]  He crawled right into the picture book!

  Kermit : Oh, no! That book is 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea!

  Fozzie : Gee, a story about an underwater bowling alley?

  All : Oooh!

  Fozzie : Sorry.
