After leaving the Centaurs and Minotaurs, the group comes to the Purple Brick Road that goes to Muppet City. They scare a Skeksis who thinks one or more of them is a Gelfling. Two real Gelflings show up while they are trying to calm the Skeksis.
Jen (Male Gelfling): Who are you and where are you going?
Dorothy: I’m Dorothy, and this is my dog Two Toes, Lion, Tinman, Scarecrow, and my Bae, Mr. Perfection. We are on our way to Schnoz to see the Great Lizard.
Kira (Female Gelfling): I wonder if the Great Lizard can tell us which shard can repair the Dark Crystal and restore Muppetland to its original beauty?
Tinman: He probably could.
Just then they hear a loud “mugwamp” sound that makes them jump up to their feet in fear.
Kira laughs and says: It’s my friend the Mugwamp in the water. He can’t hurt you if you stay out of the pond!
A group of instrument playing, singing, dancing Podlings passes the group on its way to the Little Persons’ Convention. Right after, a group of Muppets comes down the Purple Brick Road to the Yellow Brick Road to go to Schnoz for the Little Persons’ Convention. Mayor Kermit the Frog greets them. Miss Piggy the Assistant Mayor also greets them. Cookie Monster tries to eat Two Toes but finds out he is not a cookie but a living furball. The two old men from the balcony crack jokes and laugh at the antics of the other Muppets upon seeing the group on their way to Schnoz. Big Bird is so happy to see the strangers she lays an egg. Ernie offers them food from his trash can.
Dorothy: No thank you, Ernie! We ate at the Romulan Restaurant.
The Muppets continue on to Schnoz leaving the group and the Gelflings behind.
Tinman: Writer?
Writer: Yes?
Tinman: Really? Schnoz meets “The Dark Crystal” and “The Muppet Show”?
