Kermit the Frog was focused, his eyes scanning the columns of numbers before him. The office was his sanctuary, a place where he could manage the chaos of the Muppet Show. Suddenly, the door swung open, and in walked Gonzo, his blue feathers slightly ruffled. "Kermit, we need to talk," he said, holding a piece of paper that seemed to weigh heavily on his conscience.
Gonzo handed the paper to Kermit, his eyes filled with a mix of frustration and determination. "I've had it with you using me for money, so I'm taking you to court and suing you," he declared, his voice unwavering. Kermit looked up in shock, his mind racing to understand the sudden turn of events. The room fell silent, the weight of the accusation hanging heavily in the air.
Kermit took a deep breath, his mind replaying the countless shows and stunts they had shared. "Gonzo, I never meant to take advantage of you," he said softly, his voice filled with sincerity. Gonzo crossed his arms, his eyes fixed on Kermit. "Then why does it always feel like I'm just a means to an end?" he asked, the hurt evident in his tone.
Kermit leaned back in his chair, his mind searching for the right words. "Let's fix this, Gonzo. We can work something out without going to court," he implored, his eyes reflecting a genuine desire to mend their friendship. Gonzo hesitated, the anger in his eyes beginning to soften. "What do you have in mind?" he asked, his curiosity piqued.
Kermit smiled, his mind already forming a plan. "How about we partner up? You can have more creative control, and we'll make sure the profits are shared fairly," he suggested, extending a hand across the desk. Gonzo considered the offer, a small smile playing on his lips. "Alright, Kermit. But if I end up in a cannon again, I'm getting a bigger cut," he replied, shaking Kermit's hand firmly.
With the agreement settled, Kermit and Gonzo shared a laugh, the tension from earlier dissolved. "Let's make some great shows together, partner," Kermit said, his voice bubbling with optimism. Gonzo nodded, feeling a sense of relief and excitement for the future. As they planned their next venture, the world outside seemed a little brighter, and the possibilities endless.
