The Giant Spider is a full-bodied character, a prehistoric arachnid who danced with, and menaced, Raquel Welch in episode 311 of The Muppet Show. Raquel defends herself: she hits the Spider with her bludgeon and moves her fists as if she challenges the monster for a fight. At last, the Spider, softened up, finishes the dance number in a friendly way.
