Episode 203: Heather Locklear

Muppets Tonight
Air Date	September 21, 1997
Written by	Dick Blasucci, Paul Flaherty, Darin Henry, Jim Lewis, Kirk Thatcher and Patric Verrone
Director	Gary Halvorson

Heather Locklear ignores Beaker's warning about the chimichanga.

"They've Got An Awful Lot of Coffee In Brazil"

The Muppets just try to survive the rest of the episode when Heather Locklear begins changing between "Good" and "Evil" Heather after eating Dr. Bunsen Honeydew's experimental mood-altering snack foods. And later her mood changes by hypnotism whenever she hears two taps. In the final number, every time Kermit tapped his cane twice, she changed her personality but didn't really hurt anyone at the times she was evil. Then Bunsen undoes the hypnotism by hitting her with a small mouth bass.
