At the end of this dialogue, Philip says: "Thanks, you're a doll". Which of the following expressions can best replace the original: "you're a doll"?
Although this is something that Philip might say, this isn't what the expression "you're a doll" means!
"You're a doll" is an old expression, not very common, which means "You're kind". It is generally used by men towards women. "A doll" is literally a child's toy in the form of a person, usually a child. Barbie, Ken and GI JOE are noteworthy dolls. Note that "doll" is also a dated term for a girl, check out the great film/musical "Guys and Dolls" for multiple references, however there is no reason why Philip would be calling the secretary a "doll" in the "girl" sense of the word.
This isn't what the expression "you're a doll" means! Also, the girl Philip is speaking with is likely aware of her gender.
Philip is not talking about an actual "doll" here. A "muppet" is a sort of marionette/puppet hybrid. Famous muppets include Kermit D. Frog, Miss Piggy and of course the one and only Swedish Chef.
