Doc Hopper
- Doc Hopper: Max, I've done my best with that frog, now's the time to do my worst. Open the door.
- Max: No, YOU open the door!
- Doc Hopper: What?
- Max: I'm through, Doc. The frog is right. You're asking him to do something terrible. I can't be a part of it. It's a moral decision and I'll stand by it.
- Doc Hopper: I'll double your percentage.
- Max: I'll open the door.
- Doc Hopper: [appearing from behind a billboard showing a bucket of "Doc Hopper's French Fried Frog Legs"] Ha-ha-ha-haaa! You got the picture, boy! You see what I mean? Kermit *the* Frog, symbol of Doc Hopper's French Fried Frog Legs! Isn't that splendid? Just splendid! Just take a look at it.
- Kermit: All I can see are millions of frogs on tiny crutches.
- Max Krassman: It is important to remember that you have to hold on to your hat.
- Doc Hopper: What for?
- Max Krassman: When a German scientist tells you to hold on to your hat, it's not casual conversation. HOLD ON TO YOUR HAT! HAT! HOLD!
- [Doc Hopper grabs his hat brim]
- Max Krassman: Good.
- Doc Hopper: I'll be back later to pick up what's left of the frog.
- Max Krassman: What's left of the frog? You can have everything - excuse the brain!
- [after Fozzie speeds off from the TV shop]
- Doc Hopper: Max! Follow that frog!
- [Max drives off leaving Doc Hopper behind]
- Doc Hopper: [screaming] Max!
- [Max stops and reverses the car]
- Doc Hopper: Follow that frog with *me* in the car!
- Doc Hopper: And remember, this frog does everything: he talks, he sings, he dances, he tells jokes, he even rides a bicycle. Max, find me a frog and a bear in a tan Studebaker.
- Max: [Fozzie and Kermit appear in Fozzie's Studebaker, now rainbow-colored] Gee, Doc, all I can see is a frog and a bear in a *rainbow*-colored Studebaker.
- Doc Hopper: Listen, we're a small business but we've expanded. Expanded! Just like you frogs expand. Don't you frogs expand?
- [puffs his cheeks]
- Kermit: That's a myth.
- Doc Hopper: What?
- Kermit: Myth! Myth!
- Myth: Yeth?
- Kermit: Huh?
- [same with Fozzie]
- Kermit: [to Fozzie]
- Kermit: C'mon, bear, burn rubber!
- Kermit: If that's not the kind of man you are... or... what I'm saying doesn't make any sense to you, well then... go ahead and kill me.
- Doc Hopper: [takes off his hat and fluffs his hair; reluctantly] All right boys. Kill him.
- Doc Hopper: This is Snake Walker. Tell 'em what you do, Snake.
- Frog Killer: [removes his sunglasses] Kill frogs.
- Fozzie: [after Kermit has turned down Doc Hopper's offer] Five hundred dollars? Would you consider a *bear* in a frog suit?
- Kermit: Fozzie!
- Fozzie: I'm sorry, sir, I just lost my head.
- Doc Hopper: [as Kermit and Fozzie drive off] Just a minute, Mr. Frog; everything's negotiable!
- Doc Hopper: [about Krassman's machine] What does it do?
- Max Krassman: What does it do? What does it do? It turns the brains into guacamole!
- Kermit: [annoyed] Hopper, what's the matter with you? You're gonna crazy chasing me halfway across the country. Why are you doing this to me?
- Doc Hopper: Cause all my life I wanted to own a thousand frog-leg restaurants... and you're the key, greenie.
