• Capt. Link Hogthrob : [to Luke]  Who's your tailor? I love that outfit!

• The Newsman : Here's a bulletin from the Muppet Newsroom. The spaceship Swine Trek is about to make a soft landing on a distant planet. In other planetary news, Venus is about to make a hard landing on the Muppet Newsroom. That doesn't make sense.

  [suddenly, the Venus de Milo falls down on top of the Newsman's desk] 

• Waldorf : Do you think there's life in outer space?

  Statler : There's certainly none in this theater.

  [they both laugh] 

• Fozzie Bear : [to Mark]  You could be a guest on this very show!

  [he addresses Kermit as he approaches] 

  Fozzie Bear : Right, Kermit?

  Kermit the Frog : Oh, well, maybe. What do you do, Mark?

  Mark Hamill : [imitating Kermit]  Oh, uh, well, you know, I've been known to do impressions. Yaaay!

  Kermit the Frog : Hm-mmm. Who do you do?

  [Mark looks perplexed] 

• Robin the Frog : Uncle Kermit, Uncle Kermit!

  Kermit the Frog : Oh, just one second, Robin. One thing at a time. That's how I'm able to put on this show without falling into a panic. Next, we have, uh... Pigs in Space! Pigs in Space next, please!

  [He directs his attention to Robin, who is facepalming and shaking his head] 

  Kermit the Frog : Uh, now what was it?

  Robin the Frog : Well, I was trying to tell ya the Star Wars people have hijacked the Swinetrek.

  Kermit the Frog : [stammering in a panic]  They've hijacked the... they've hijacked the Swinetrek?

  [Kermit runs onstage and crashes into something] 

  Robin the Frog : ...Well, at least he didn't panic.
