Beauregard and Beaker are building the set for the final number, a big ancient Egypt production, and Beauregard asks what shape Kermit wants the pyramids to be. Kermit is alarmed when Bo tells him Beaker's getting the power saw, crying: "He's dumber than you are!" Beaker is dragged around by the power saw and the set doesn't get finished, so Bo is still hammering while the number goes on.

• Bobby Benson's Baby Band plays "Pennsylvania 6-5000."
