It seems Santa Claus has finally become overwhelmed by the pressures of his job , and a mounting fear that he ' ll be unable to fulfill the hopes and dreams of every child in the world . This in fact reinforces Fozzie ' s earn paranoia about whether Santa could accomplish such an awesome task . Since there are evidently no psychiatrists , self - help groups , or motivational speakers in the North Pole , the nameless female elf settled for Baby Fozzie , since Santa likes children . Fozzie tries to encourage St . Nick , who sits large and lumpen , cheers tricking into his white beard . Reminding him he can do it if he ' d just get a move on has no effect . Inspiration strikes when Fozzie decides to tell Santa some jokes ( " What ' s red and white and purple all over ? Santa Grape ! " ) Santa begins guffawing , belly shaking like a bowlful of jelly , and Fozzie remains by his side during the traditional aerial sleigh ride . Returned to the Nursery , all of the Muppet Babies get what they wanted for Christmas , including a new jokebook for Fozzie ( one assumes the trip used up much of his material ) .

Recycled puppets The Muppet universe frequently requires large numbers of one - shot characters . Thanks to the enormous library of puppets at the Muppet team ' s disposal , this end is frequently met by passing a minor or background character ( sometimes one from a different series ) to another performer and giving it a new name and personality . Sometimes the puppet is identical from situation to situation ( as with Joe the Armadillo from " Kermit ' s Swamp Years " and Annette from " Bear in the Big Blue House " ) ; sometimes it is simply re - costumed ( " The Muppet Show ' s " Shakey Sanchez became Princess Lulabelle on " Mopatop ' s Shop " through the addition of a hat and dress ) ; and sometimes the puppet itself is modified ( Taminella Grinderfall ' s fang was removed and hair was added when she became Tommy in commercials for Kern ' s Bakery ) . The concept is taken to its logical extreme in the Anything Muppets , Whatnots , and Unisaurs , who are endlessly recycled as different characters and frequently have changeable facial features . Puppets passed around in this manner occasionally acquire stable identities when the right combination of performer and writer comes along . Snarl , the Cigar Box Frackle , was an unimportant character from " The Great Santa Claus Switch " , but that puppet rose to stardom when recycled as a " Muppet Show " performance artist named Gonzo . Similarly , the furry red puppet used for a minor " Sesame Street " character named Baby Monster was recycled a decade later to become the show ' s ultra - popular Elmo , while the Wheel - Stealer puppet used for the Wheels , Crowns and Flutes commercials was recycled into Sesame Street ' s famous Cookie Monster .
