Mr. Arrow: Roll call! [reads from list] Long John Silver?
Long John Silver: Aye aye, sir!
Mr. Arrow: Short Stack Stevens?
Short Stack Stevens: Aye!
Mr. Arrow: One-Eyed Jack?
One-Eyed Jack: Aye.
Mr. Arrow: Black Eye Pete?
Black Eye Pete: Yeah.
Mr. Arrow: Walleyed Pike?
Walleyed Pike: Aye.
Mr. Arrow: Polly Lobster?
Polly Lobster: (Squawks and whistles)
Mr. Arrow: Mad Monty?
Mad Monty: Aye.
Mr. Arrow: Sweetums?
Sweetums: [from behind them] AYE.
[The captain and Mr. Arrow jump]
Mr. Arrow: ...Old Tom?
Old Tom: Aye aye.
Mr. Arrow: Real Old Tom?
[Puppet controls Real Old Tom]
Real Old Tom: Aye!
Mr. Arrow: Dead Tom?
[Same puppet controls a skeleton]
Dead Tom: Aye aye!!
[Captain Smollett whimpers]
Kermitv um...
Gonzo: Cool.
Mr. Arrow: Clueless Morgan?
Clueless Morgan: Huh?
Mr. Arrow: Headless Bill? [no response] Headless Bill? [leans to the side and sees a headless puppet saluting in acknowledgment] Big-Fat-Ugly-Bug-Face-Baby-Eating O'Brien?
[a woman walks into view]
O'Brien: [in her deep voice] Aye.
Mr. Arrow: [stands in aghast momentarily before reading off the final name] Angel Marie?
Angel Marie: [in his deep voice] Aye, aye.
Captain Smollett: Hmm...hmm...Gentlemen, may I see you in my cabin? Immediately?
Captain Smollett: [Later, in his cabin] Who hired this crew?! This is without a doubt, the seediest bunch of cutthroats, villains, and scoundrels I have ever seen! So, who hired 'em?! [whimpers with a pant. Jim, Rizzo, Gonzo, the rest of The Muppets, and officers point at Trelawney, who in turn points at his finger] Your finger hired the crew?
Trelawney: No, that's silly. The man who lives in my finger hired the crew - Mr. Bimbo. What? [listens ti his finger] Ah. Yeah, he relied heavily on the advice of our excellent cook, Long John Silver.
Captain Smollett: [stunned] A cook, and a guy who lives in a bear's finger?
Trelawney: Exactly!
[Mr. Arrow faceplams]
Captain Smollett: I'm starting to worry about this voyage.
Captain Smollett: Here's the plan. Once the pirates are ashore, we take the Hispaniola back to Bristol, and leave them stranded on Treasure Island.
Doctor: Excellent plan.
Rizzo: Except for one thing: the pirates have Jim!
Rizzo: Terrific. Captured by crazed wild pigs and sacrificed hideously before a pagan altar.
Gonzo: Are we lucky or what?
Trelawney: Probably not lucky. I'm starting to worry about those storm clouds!
Benjamina Gunn: Next time, Kermie and I are going to find that below deck instead of that drenching Crow's Nest. [Rizzo whimpers before screaming and grabbing Miss Piggy's hand heading to the Crow's Nest] Hey! Let go you no good big beluga!
Benjamina Gunn: Of all the backwater, no-class piles of sand in the ocean, you had to wash up on mine!
Captain Smollett: Benjamina, I just want you to know that I'm sorry.
Benjamina Gunn: Sorry? No, no; "Sorry" doesn't cut it. You left me standing at the altar!
Captain Smollett: I was on a ship headed for Zanzibar. I got cold feet.
Benjamina Gunn: You're a frog. You're supposed to have cold feet! My mother came all the way from France. I was wearing her white lace dress. The cake was filled with lemon custard!
Captain Smollett: Benjamina, fate has brought us together again. Well, actually, buried treasure and pirates brought us together--
Benjamina Gunn: Don't you start with me about pirates! After you jilted me, I took up with this Bernie Flint. The man was totally co-dependent.
Captain Smollett: You and Captain Flint?
Benjamina Gunn: Well, he was a pirate, I was a lady, you know the story. Smollett? He marooned me! Me! [sobs] Oh, what have I done?!
Captain Smollett: Oh, this it all my fault! What have I done to you?
[Smollett flings his sword at Long John Silver, and is able to cut off parts of his clothing during it; Smollett contently flinging while casually chuckling]
Long John Silver: Excuse me?
Captain Smollett: Pardon? [distracted, he loses his sword. Mr. Arrow facepalms, before punching Polly without looking] Uh...I'm a frog. You know, slippery hands? [Long John Silver laughs and points his sword at his] Erm...Y'know, I never really believed violence solved anything anyway.
Long John Silver: Really? Allow me to disagree with you, Captain.
Jim Hawkins: [appears with sword] Kill Captain Smollett and you'll have to kill me.
Gonzo: [also appears] Kill Jim and you'll have to kill me.
Trelawney: [also appears] Kill Gonzo and you'll have to kill me.
Rizzo: [also appears] Kill Squire Trelawney and Mr. Bimbo and you'll have to... negotiate strenuously.
Benjammina Gunn: [also appears] Going somewhere, John-John?
[Then a gang of native pigs surrounded Long John]
Long John Silver: Well, Master Hawkins, it seems your little family has come together against me.
[Long John handed over his sword to Jim, much to the gang's approval]
[Jim Hawkins catches Long John Silver in the lifeboat]
Jim Hawkins: Silver!
Long John Silver: I suppose you'll be blowing the whistle on me now, won't you, Jim?
Jim Hawkins: I suppose I will. You have to return to Bristol to stand trial. [raising his whistle]
Long John Silver: Oh, I'm sorry, Jim. [aims his pistol at him] I got a terrible fear of hanging. We're shipmates, aren't we, Jim? Gentlemen of fortune, together. Give us one more chance? [Jim does not drop his whistle. After a long pause, he lowers his pistol; changing his heart] Oh, hell, Jim. I could never harm you. You're honest and brave and true. You didn't learn that from me.
Jim Hawkins: I learned it from my friends, Mr. Silver. Now take your oars and row away. I never want to see you again, ever.
Long John Silver: [begins to row away, but stops] Oh, Jim? [throws Jim back his compass and rows off] 'Tis a shame, really. We'd have made a great team, Jim.
