You're the only adult in a rug-rat rumble but you can't feed them knuckle sandwiches because the cops are watching. Uh-oh!
"Good thing I trained in Muppet style kung fu," you think to yourself. "They can't arrest ME if I hoodwink these hoodlums into kicking their OWN butts!"
You grab the biggest karate kid by the jacket sleeves and unleash some MARIONETTE MAYHEM!!!

Tallboy is tied up and he unintentionally mopped the floor with Chinese Milhouse.

Heck no!

But there's some metal pipe magic going on that makes the impossible possible AND allows the stunt team to keep more distance, giving the audience a clearer view of the action.
