Holy shit is that the reason why Jareth gets so pissy when Sarah says it again down in the tunnels and sends in the cleaners?
Take chicken to other side. Return and pick up the fox. Take the chicken back to the starting point and pick up the grain. Leave grain with fox and return for chicken.
Since you can only ever leave the grain and fox together, your hand is forced at every step. The order of the grain and fox is arbitrary.

I can’t believe everyone knows such an obscure reference
This is not obscure, it’s fucking David Bowie there
I’m pretty sure they were being sarcastic. I’ve definitely heard of the movie. I just haven’t seen it (and won’t since it’s apparently a musical).
(and won’t since it’s apparently a musical).
A musical with music written and performed by David Bowie. With Muppets.
Why would you not watch such a thing?
David Bowie and Muppets don’t really mean anything to me, and I can rarely tolerate a musical.
