| Grover The Waiter — Big Or Little
|
| Blue Guy: Waiter!
|
| Grover: Just a moment, Sir! |
| (runs off stage)
|
| Blue Guy: Waiter!
|
| Grover (running across stage): Just a second! |
| (he runs over to The Blue Guy)
|
| Yes, Sir! |
| Grover, your waiter, at your service, Sir!
|
| Blue Guy: Yes, well, I’d like a hamburger
|
| Grover: Well, Sir, we have two hamburgers; |
| a big one and a little one.
|
| (whispering) May I suggest you try the little one
|
| Blue Guy: All right, let’s see it
|
| Grover: (goes through the door in back, and yells to the kitchen staff) Singe
|
| the itty bitty, Charlie!
|
| Blue Guy: (mumbling) I always get this ding-a-ling every time I come in here
|
| (After a couple seconds, Grover comes out)
|
| Grover: All right, Sir, the little hamburger
|
| (Holds out the plate. On it is a small sandwich, not even enough to make a
|
| mouthful.)
|
| Blue Guy: Wow, that sure is little
|
| Grover: Isn’t it sweet?
|
| Blue Guy: That’s hardly enough to feed a flea!
|
| Grover: I wouldn’t know. |
| We have never fed a flea here before! |
| (Laughs,
|
| and looks at Blue Guy, who’s looking at him.) That’s a waiter joke
|
| Blue Guy: Well, don’t wait for the laughs. |
| (Thinks) Uh, yeah, take this back
|
| and bring me the big hamburger
|
| Grover: Oh, no, no, maybe you want, oh say, three or four little ones,
|
| cause we’ve had a lot of problems with our big one
|
| Blue Guy: Look, your problem’s no concern of mine; |
| take back this little
|
| hamburger
|
| Grover: Here, let me sit down and talk to you. |
| (sits on Blue Guy’s chair next
|
| to him) First thing, we have …
|
| Blue Guy: (Cutting off Grover) WILL YOU BRING ME THE BIG HAMBURGER!
|
| (Grover screams, frightened)
|
| Grover: Yes, Sir!
|
| Blue Guy: I haven’t got all day!
|
| Grover: All right, I warned you, I warned you. |
| (goes through door,
|
| and yells) All right, Charlie, brrroil the biggie!
|
| Blue Guy: (angrily) Boy, the nerve of that guy, trying to tell me what I want!
|
| (viewer hears a rumbling sound in background starting here, grows progressively
|
| louder)
|
| Blue Guy: I know what I want, (hears the sound, starts to slow down) I want.
|
| the. |
| big … ham … bur. |
| ger …
|
| (He looks back and then toward the cameras with a surprised look)
|
| (Grover crashes through the door with this enormous hamburger, which dwarfs him
|
| and the table. |
| He strains under the weight and places the hamburger on the
|
| table. |
| Blue Guy’s scared out of his mind, comes out from under the table,
|
| and starts to take off.)
|
| Grover: Uh, Sir, on the catsup, do you want the big bottle or the little bottle?
|
| Hm?
|
| (Ending music of two notes plays, Blue Guy starts to walk off again.)
|
| Grover: WHOAAA!
|
| (Tips over holding hamburger. Blue Guy looks back, there’s a deafening crash as
|
| Grover falls, then Blue Guy runs off.) |
