It was a quiet afternoon inside the nursery. The Muppet Babies were sitting on the couch, listening to Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake," which they saw earlier with their caretaker, Nanny, and none of them were feeling happy.
"I don't understand what went wrong." said Rowlf. "I thought this show had a happy ending."
"Nothing went wrong, Rowlf." replied Scooter. "'Swan Lake' may be a fairy tale, but it doesn't have a happy ending like all the others."
"Well, this stinks!" exclaimed Gonzo.
"If only we could think of a more happy ending." said Piggy. "That way everyone can live happily ever after."
Kermit's face lit up when he heard what Piggy said. "That's a great idea, Piggy!"
"It is?" asked Piggy.
"Yeah," said Kermit as he hopped off the couch. "We can imagine a happier ending for Odette and her prince."
"Well then, why don't you tell us the story, Kermit." said Gonzo.
"Wait, you want me to tell the story of 'Swan Lake?'" asked Kermit.
"Yeah, go on, Kermit." said Scooter.
The urging went on until Kermit agreed to tell the story of "Swan Lake" in a way they can imagine it.
