| - In this one-hour special, the Muppets visit Kermit's hometown of Paradise Swamp, Florida for the annual Frog Festival and Bug Fry. Once there, they discover Walt Disney World on the other side of the swamp. After a run-in with Quentin Fitzwaller (an irate, bumbling security guard played by Charles Grodin), the group splits up to explore the wonders of the theme park and resort complex. Highlights include:
* Quentin and Rizzo the Rat try to find the rest of the Muppets all over the park
* Beauregard forces Miss Piggy to accompany him on a variety of thrill rides, including Star Tours, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and the Mad Tea Party.
* Rowlf the Dog performs "live from the detention hall of the Disney World Pet Care Center" with other Muppet dogs (including Baskerville, Foo-Foo, and Sprocket), singing "I'm Doggin' It."
* Fozzie Bear, who brings his mother Emily along for the trip, performs a comedy routine on a Frontierland street corner to get some cash.
* While at the swamp, a bucket falls onto Beaker's head and Beaker's head gets stuck inside the bucket, only briefly coming off and then back on. Later, Bunsen decorates the bucket with a wig and sunglasses.
* Statler and Waldorf take a ride on a horse-drawn trolley down Main Street, U.S.A. and serenade a female passenger.
* Gonzo and his sweetheart Camilla the Chicken visit the Disney World laundry facilities.
* Scooter and Bean Bunny play around the leaping fountains at EPCOT Center's Journey Into Imagination pavilion.
* Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, accompanied for the first and only time by Clifford, perform in costumes from different countries at EPCOT Center's World Showcase singing "Rockin' All Around the World."
* Raven-Symoné sings "The Rainbow Connection" to cheer up Kermit.
* Animal chases after Snow White.
* The cast gathers at the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular, where Miss Piggy and Kermit are picked to perform in the stage show.
* The entire Muppet gang meets Mickey Mouse in his executive office.
