Kermit the Frog (The Great Muppet Caper)
In The Great Muppet Caper, Kermit the Frog takes on the role of a reporter for the Daily Chronicle, traveling to London with his friends Fozzie Bear and Gonzo the Great to investigate the theft of a valuable diamond necklace from fashion designer Lady Holiday. He is portrayed as the level-headed and often frazzled "everyman" navigating the chaotic world of the Muppets, maintaining his optimism and perseverance despite the absurdity surrounding him. Kermit's journey involves being thrown from an airplane into the cargo hold, staying at the rundown Happiness Hotel, and mistakenly believing Miss Piggy to be the fashion designer, leading to a romantic subplot where he must clear her name after she is framed for the crime.
