Beaker (Muppet)
Beaker is a humanoid Muppet who serves as the shy, hapless assistant to Dr. Bunsen Honeydew. He was introduced in the Muppet Labs sketches during the second season of The Muppet Show. Kermit the Frog describes Beaker by saying, "If somebody has to get hurt, it's almost always Beaker." Whenever Bunsen's experiments start to go bad, Beaker has been the recurring victim, mostly blown up and deflated. He only speaks in high-pitched "mee-mee-mee" noises. He is portrayed by Steve Whitmire.

Towards the end of The Muppet Movie, Beaker and his famed doctor are first chronologically introduced to Kermit when they are about to demonstrate the instra-grow pills. In another one of his movie roles, Beaker appeared in The Great Muppet Caper to help foil the villainous robber Nicky Holiday despite another of his accidents while trying to pry open the window. He is portrayed by Steve Whitmire.
