/* Signing of The Deceleration of Independence */
At this moment, Gonzo appears in the window to announce that the all chicken chorus is ready to perform "The Cluck Heard Round the World". After Kermit rejects the idea and chases the chickens off stage, he regretfully informs Miss Piggy that since the show is about the Founding Fathers, there is no role for her. Miss Piggy responds by saying "we'll see", before Kermit throws the show back to JJ.
Finally beginning to tell his story, Sam the Eagle then informs guests that the scene is being set in 1776 Philadelphia. He then introduces Thomas Jefferson (Kermit), John Adams (Gozno) and Benjamin Franklin (Fozzie). Sam says that the delegates are debating the idea of separation from England. After Fozzie and Gonzo say things like "debate, debate" and "argument". Gonzo (still as John Adams) eventually gives reasons for America to declare her independence, and Jefferson asks if there is are any arguments in favor of England. As the audience begins to chant "no King George", Miss Piggy appears on stage as King George/Queen Georgette. When Sam objects that King George was not at Congress, Miss Piggy dryly points out that a bear is playing Benjamin Franklin. After the Founding Fathers list their objections, the audience votes to declare independence from Queen Georgette. When Piggy is informed that England looses in the American Revolution, she disappears offstage, only to return seconds later as George Washington.
Following her return, Jefferson (Kermit) is chosen to write the Deceleration of Independence. Fozzie, Piggy and Gonzo then begin to make a series of ridiculous demands, and the chickens appear on stage to sing again. After Kermit yells at everyone to be quiet. He explains that the Deceleration was more then a list of demands, but instead that it was about things that "we all believe in, things that were worth fighting for". He then quotes the beginning of the Deceleration (with the chickens clucking God Bless America behind him).
