Sneaky Snake: Lost in the Holy Land (2007) Online

Sneaky Snake (a green sock puppet), whose escapades often get him into hot water. In this episode, Sneaky becomes lost in the Holy City of Jerusalem, searching for a McDonald's bacon-cheeseburger. Along the way he meets a Rabbi, a Priest, and a Mullah, who each recommend a 'particular' surgical procedure on Sneaky's anatomy. In an amazing tour-de-force of acting, Sneaky plays all the roles in this culturally diverse short.
