00:00Oh, hi! Welcome to Sesame Street!
00:07Oh, it's time to play everyone's favorite game, Magic!
00:14Today, we have two teams. On this side, Abby Cadabby and Rudy Monster.
00:21Hi! And on the other side, Julia and Julia's brother, Sam.
00:27Now, it's Sam's first time playing, so tell us about Sam.
00:32Oh, wow. Thank you, Elmo.
00:34Um, so let's see. I like playing the clarinet and the flute, but not at the same time.
00:39And my favorite sport is soccer. And I love playing games with Julia.
00:44Play! Play! Let's get to it! Let's get matching!
00:50Yes!
00:52Uh, uh, Elmo? Huh? What's matching?
00:56Oh, Rudy! Matching? Uh...
01:01Alan? What's a match?
01:04Matching is when things are the same, like having the same color or the same shape.
01:08They can be different in some ways, but something has to be the same to match.
01:13Uh, these socks and this jacket are different kinds of clothes, but their colors match.
01:19Thank you, Alan. In each round, Elmo will hold something up. Your job, teams, is to go out and find something that matches it, bring it back here, and ding the bell.
01:32The first way to match is to find something people wear. Like, um, uh-oh, uh-oh, like the sweater. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.
01:40No!
01:41Find something else that people wear.
01:45Oh! Oh! Can it be something we're wearing right now?
01:48Good question, Abby. No, it cannot.
01:50Are you ready to play?
01:52Yes!
01:53Yes!
01:54Ready! Set! Match it!
01:57Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Yes! Go! Go! Hurry! Yes!
02:01Oh, hi, Alan!
02:02Hi!
02:03Match! Match!
02:05Yeah, yeah! We're playing a matching game, and we're looking for something that people wear.
02:10Uh, Julia thought we should come to the laundromat.
02:12Clothes?
02:13How about a super fun shirt?
02:15Oh, what do you think, Julia? Should we do balloons or elephants?
02:20Hmm. Elephants?
02:22Yeah, yeah. I think so, too.
02:24Elephants?
02:25Alan, can we borrow the elephant shirt?
02:26Sure. Uh, just bring it back whenever.
02:28Okay, thank you! Come on, Julia, let's go!
02:34Something to wear. Something to wear.
02:37I wonder what we can find to match that sweater.
02:41What is this?
02:44What? An umbrella? Rudy, you don't wear an umbrella.
02:50You can wear this one. It's an umbrella, and I'm wearing it. It's all the things.
02:57Uh, well, I mean, I guess that works. Let's try!
03:01Yeah!
03:02Go! Go! This is exciting.
03:06Let's let Santa Julia got back first. Show us what you've got.
03:12Well, a shirt and a sweater are both things that people wear, so we think they match.
03:19Match!
03:20Mm-hmm.
03:21They... are... a match!
03:26Now let's see what Abby and Rudy found.
03:28Oh, well, you can wear this hat, and you can wear that sweater, so we think it's a match.
03:36Rudy?
03:37Yeah?
03:38Abby?
03:39Yeah?
03:40That... is also a match!
03:43A match!
03:44Yeah!
03:45But, since Sam and Julia got back first, they get the point.
03:50Oh, nice work, Julia.
03:52Next, the teams will be matching... this.
03:57Wait a minute. That's the same thing we matched last time.
04:00Yes, very observant, Rudy.
04:02But, this time, the way the teams match will be by color.
04:08Green!
04:09So, we have to find something else that's green like the shirt I'm wearing!
04:13To clarify, it cannot be something you are wearing.
04:18Fair enough.
04:19Ready?
04:20Set?
04:21Let's go!
04:22Let's go!
04:23Let's go!
04:24Let's go!
04:25Let's go!
04:30Hmm, I see.
04:31I wonder what we can find that has green on it.
04:35Rudy!
04:36What are you doing, little brother?
04:39I'm just trying to bring this green tree with green leaf to Elmo.
04:47Or, uh, what if we use this little green plant, Rudy?
04:53Oh, yeah!
04:54That was probably easier to carry.
04:57Yeah, yeah!
04:58Come on!
04:59Come on, Rudy!
05:00Let's try!
05:01I wonder if we can find something green.
05:06What if we check the fruits and vegetables?
05:10Green?
05:11Oh, yeah!
05:12Good eye, Julia!
05:13Broccoli's green!
05:14Let's try!
05:16This is still very exciting, and it's anyone who's kidding me.
05:21Okay!
05:22Okay!
05:23Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
05:24Abby and Rudy got here first!
05:26We brought this green plant!
05:28Green plant!
05:29And we brought green broccoli!
05:32Well, they are both green!
05:35They...
05:36But...
05:37No!
05:38Yay!
05:39Yes, yes!
05:40But since Abby and Rudy got back first, they get the point this time.
05:45Finally, the teams will match...
05:49What?
05:50Again?
05:51How do we match this time?
05:52Each team can choose.
05:53Find something about the sweater that you want to match.
05:54Hmm.
05:55Well, let me see here that...
05:56Well, it is very soft.
05:57Hmm.
05:58Hey, wait.
05:59Wait a minute.
06:00What if we match the way that it feels?
06:01Ah!
06:02Sweater...
06:03Sweater...
06:04S!
06:05Yeah!
06:06Sweater starts with a letter and a letter and a letter and a letter and a letter.
06:08Hmm.
06:09Hey, wait.
06:10Wait a minute.
06:11What if we match the way that it feels?
06:13Ah!
06:14Sweater...
06:15Sweater...
06:16S!
06:17Yeah!
06:18Sweater starts with a letter S, so let's match it with something else that starts with
06:22a letter S.
06:23Ah!
06:24Two tough choices!
06:25Ready?
06:26Yes!
06:27Set!
06:28Match it!
06:29Go!
06:30Go!
06:31Go!
06:32All right.
06:33If you can find something soft, you can borrow it.
06:34Thank you, Alan!
06:35Did you hear that?
06:36Okay.
06:37Let me see.
06:38Let me see.
06:39Let me see.
06:40Oh!
06:41What about this can of creamed corn?
06:43What?
06:44Rudy!
06:45What?
06:46Is a can soft?
06:48No, but the creamed corn inside is...
06:52Kinda.
06:53Well, it's really more squishy than soft and, well, it doesn't feel like a sweater.
06:58Oh, this is too hard.
07:01I give up.
07:02No, no, Rudy, don't give up.
07:04I am sure Alan has something soft in here that we can use.
07:07Really?
07:08I just wonder where it is.
07:09I just...
07:10Oh!
07:11Oh!
07:12Rudy!
07:13What if we use that toy up there?
07:15That little soft toy?
07:16Oh, yeah!
07:17Yeah.
07:18Is it soft?
07:19I don't know.
07:20Oh, thank you.
07:21Is it soft?
07:22Oh, yeah!
07:23This little kitty is very soft.
07:25Oh!
07:26Hey, Alan!
07:27Uh-huh?
07:28Can we borrow this here toy?
07:29Right here?
07:30Yeah.
07:31Yes.
07:32Oh, thank you.
07:33We'll get back when you're done.
07:34Aw, thank you so much, Alan.
07:35Thank you very much, Alan.
07:36Thank you very much, Alan.
07:37Okay, let's try, Rudy.
07:40Hmm.
07:41What starts with the letter S?
07:44Let's look.
07:45Yeah.
07:46S.
07:47S.
07:48S.
07:49S.
07:50Hmm.
07:51S.
07:52Sam!
07:53Oh!
07:54You're right, Julia!
07:55My name starts with the letter S. We can bring me!
07:59Wait!
08:00Come on!
08:01Let's go!
08:02Who will return first?
08:04Go!
08:05Go!
08:06Go!
08:07Go!
08:08Go!
08:09Go!
08:10Go!
08:11Go!
08:12Go!
08:13Go!
08:14Go!
08:15A.
08:16Go!
08:17It's a toy!
08:18Oh!
08:19Oh, wait!
08:20No, no, no!
08:21It's a sweater!
08:22Rudy, uh, tie just means we got here at the same time.
08:25Yes, thank you, Sam.
08:26Now, did you catch us?
08:31We brought a lion.
08:33Whoa!
08:33Yeah!
08:34A toy lion.
08:36Oh, she brought a toy lion.
08:39Okay, well, it is very soft, just like the sweater, so...
08:44It's a man!
08:45Yes!
08:46You want to tell him what we brought?
08:50Sam!
08:51That's right!
08:52Both sweater and Sam start with S, so...
08:56We brought me!
08:59Julia?
09:01Sam?
09:03It is a match!
09:06It was Julia's idea.
09:07My sister's great at matching.
09:10Match, match!
09:11Since this round was a tie, both teams get one point.
09:16Okay, so that means we have two points.
09:21And they have two points.
09:23That's right, Rudy.
09:24So...
09:24So...
09:25Everybody win!
09:28Yay!
09:30Hey, guys.
09:31Oh, that's where my green sweater is.
09:34Huh?
09:35Okay, no rush, but if you guys are done with the game, can I have all my stuff back?
09:40Guess what, Alan?
09:42All of this stuff matches your sweater!
09:45Wonderful!
09:46Isn't that wonderful, folks?
09:47Yeah!
09:47Yeah!
09:48That's it for today's show.
09:50We'll see you next time on...
09:52Matches!
09:53Yay!
09:53Hey!
09:54How long?
09:54How long?
09:55Well...
09:55How long?
09:56How long?
09:56How long?
09:57Wow...
