09:50Oh, it's so awful.
09:52Oh, Oscar, what can be the problem, Oscar?
09:56My lid, the lid to my trash can.
10:00It's gone.
10:02Gone.
10:03It's gone.
10:04Gone.
10:04Hey, you're right. You're right, Oscar.
10:08Yeah.
10:09You don't have any lid. What happened to it?
10:11I don't know what happened to it.
10:12I was taking my nap.
10:14Yeah?
10:15And when I woke up, it was gone.
10:18What am I going to do, Gordon?
10:20Oh, man, I don't know, Oscar.
10:23I mean, now look, some other lids around here.
10:26Maybe we could use one of these lids.

10:32Another lid for my trash can?
10:35Yeah.

10:43No, well, you know, hit me.
10:44It's my door.
10:45Yeah.
10:46It's my roof.
10:47Right.
10:47It's my window.
10:49Oh.
10:49It keeps the rain out when it's rainy.
10:52Uh-huh.
10:53And the sun out when it's sunny.
10:55That's nice.
10:57Without a lid, a trash can is no longer a home.
11:01Yes, yes.
11:02It's just a trash can without a lid.
11:04Well, listen, I'll do my best to find it for you.
11:08Without my lid?
11:09Yeah.
11:09I can't be alone.
11:11Right.
11:11I don't have privacy.
11:13No.
11:14Anybody can come and stick their head in.
11:16Yeah.
11:17Besides, it might rain on my credenza.
11:20Oh, really?
11:21I didn't know that.
11:22Uh, look, I'll try to find it for you now.
11:25What did it look like?
11:26What did it look like?
11:28Yeah.
11:28What did it look like?
11:29Right.
11:30What did it look like?
11:31It looked like a trash can lid.
11:33Like a trash can lid?
11:34It was a trash can lid.
11:35Oh.
11:36And it's wrong.
11:37It's wrong.
11:38What do you think it was?
11:40Square?
11:40A trash can lid is always round.
11:43Boy, you don't know it's wrong.
11:45It's round, round, round, my trash can lid.
11:48And it's gone, gone, gone.
11:49Oscar, are you trying to tell me it's round?
11:53Round.

14:50So, how's school going?
14:52Five.
14:53That's good.
14:54And how are you doing in school?
14:55Five.
14:56That's good.
14:57Oh, hey.
15:00There's that airplane up there.
15:06I wonder what letter he's got for us today.
15:11Well, we know it has to be one with kind of...
15:14Oh, now it's getting a curvy line.
15:16What could that be?
15:19How can you tell that?
15:20It could be an L.
15:22Oh, it's going past an L, though, isn't it?
15:25It could be an O, though.
15:26It's not going to be a U.
15:27It's a U.
15:28It must be a U.
15:33Oh, there he goes.
15:36I wonder how long that letter's going to stay up there.
15:41Do you know any U words?
15:43What?
15:44Us.
15:45Us.
15:46That's a good U word.
15:47The three of us.
15:48The dumb letter U.
15:50I can think of a word that begins with the letter U.
15:53Boy.
15:55That sounds like Oscar.
15:55Come on.
15:57Let's go see.
15:58Hi, Oscar.
16:02The word umbrella begins with the letter U.
16:07Yeah, you're right, Oscar.
16:09But what are you doing with that umbrella?
16:11Where's your lid?
16:12It's gone.
16:14I was sleeping, Susan.
16:15My alarm clock went off, and I looked up.
16:21The word up begins with the letter U.
16:23That's right.
16:25Anyway, I looked up, and there was no lid.
16:28No?
16:29It was gone.
16:30Oh, my goodness.
16:31All that ugly sunlight was streaming in.
16:36Ugly begins with the letter U.
16:38Right.
16:39I had gone to sleep, safe under my own lid.
16:44The word under begins with the letter U.
16:48You're right, yeah.
16:48Did you know that?
16:49Yes, you're being awfully helpful with all these U words.
16:52Gee, I wish we could help you.
16:54Well, so I put up this stupid umbrella instead.
16:57Uh-huh.
16:58And you know what?
16:59No, what?
17:00I hate it!
17:01Well, try not to be so upset.
17:04You know, upset begins with the letter U.
17:08Is that all you can talk about?
17:10The dumb letter U?
17:13Now, now, just relax, Oscar.
17:15We'll help you look for your lid.
17:17Yeah, you're right, Susan.
17:18I should try to relax.
17:21I'll do that right now.
17:23I'll do the thing that relaxes me most.
17:27What's that?
17:29Play my ukulele.
17:31Your ukulele?
17:32Yeah, ukulele begins with the letter U.
17:36I didn't know you would play the ukulele.
17:39He's right, ukulele does begin with the letter U.
17:43Hey, we better try and...
17:45Through the tulips.
17:47We better try and help him find the lid to his trash can.
17:51You know, it's amazing, though.
17:52He certainly does know a lot of words that begin with the letter U.
17:55Through the tulips.
17:58The letter U.
18:01U is for unicorn.
18:06The unicorn is an imaginary animal.
18:10U is for umbrella.
18:16The unicorn puts up the umbrella.
18:21U.
18:28That's an ugly umbrella.
18:31That's an unusually ugly umbrella.
18:36U is for underwear.
18:48The unicorn under the unusually ugly umbrella is in his underwear.
18:59U is for uniform.
19:09The unicorn in his underwear, under the unusually ugly umbrella, is in uniform.
19:20U is for ukulele.
19:29The unicorn in his underwear, under the unusually ugly umbrella, in his uniform, is using the ukulele.
19:40U is for unicorn in his underwear, under the unicorn in his underwear, under the unusually ugly umbrella, in his
19:56uniform, is using the ukulele upon the unicycle.
20:01U is for infant нати regions.
20:03U is for unicorn in his underwear, in his underwear, at the sportinguses.
20:30U is for unicorns.
20:31C-Q-R-S-T, sorry pal, don't look at me, U-V-W, I didn't mean to trouble you,
20:46X-Y, then there's Z, now there's a lizard on your knee.
20:52I dream of Genie with a light brown hair, soft as a fernie on a summer's lelg.
21:06Since we couldn't find the lid to Oscar's trash can, maybe we could cheer him up with his picture game.
21:12Oscar!
21:14Oscar!
21:14Uh, what do you want? What do you... Oh, it's you, Genie.
21:17Hi, Oscar.
21:18Did you find the lid to my trash can?
21:20No, I'm afraid not, but Gail and I brought a picture game that we think might cheer you up.
21:25Picture game?
21:26Uh-huh.
21:27Yes.
21:27I don't think so.
21:28Oh, come on, Oscar, it'll take your mind off your troubles.
21:31Oh, okay, I suppose.
21:32Here we go.
21:33I don't really want to play a dog game.
21:35Now, listen, all you have to do is tell me what's wrong.
21:38What's wrong?
21:39Yeah, what's wrong with this picture?
21:42Well, oh, I can see what's wrong.
21:45I can, I, I won't go tell, though.
21:47I want to see if the little girl knows what's wrong.
21:50Oh, Gail, he wants to know what's wrong with this picture.
21:55He's, the truck man's supposed to be pulling a car.
22:02Yeah, I think she got it right.
22:04Yeah, you see, it's pulling just a little bitty tricycle.
22:08Uh-huh.
22:08You don't need a truck to pull a tricycle.
22:11And what does a truck usually pull?
22:13It pulls a car, like the little girl says.
22:15Right.
22:16And here we have a truck pulling a car.
22:19All right, now, that looks more like it.
22:20Well, that was pretty good.
22:21All right, now we're going to do the next one.
22:23All right.
22:23All right, what do you think is wrong with this one?
22:27Oh, no, look at that dumb picture.
22:29Now, that's dumb.
22:31Look at the kite.
22:32Well, what's wrong with it?
22:33The kite's on the ground, and the kid is up in the air.
22:38And how should it be?
22:40Um, the air should be on the ground.
22:45No, Oscar.
22:47The little boy should be on the ground, and the kite should be in the air.
22:51Right, Gail?
22:51Right, right, I know that.
22:53I know that.
22:54Oh, I know you knew it.
22:56All right.
22:56What do you want me to say?
22:57Well, what's this one?
22:58Okay, what's this one?
23:00Here's a little girl with a toothbrush in her hand, brushing her hair.
23:04Oh, now that's dumb.
23:07I thought I'd see...
23:08Hey, hey.
23:09She shouldn't be brushing her hair with a toothbrush.
23:13She should be brushing her teeth with a toothbrush.
23:16And what should she be brushing her hair with?
23:18A brush comb.
23:20A brush hair.
23:21A hairbrush.
23:23There we have her with her hairbrush.
23:25Yeah.
23:25And then the next picture.
23:28Is with a toothbrush.
23:29She's brushing her fangs.
23:32No, she's brushing her teeth.
23:34Oh.
23:35Well, I'm used to people with fangs.
23:37Hey, let me show you the picture that I got here.
23:40Oh, you got one too?
23:41Yeah.
23:41Gonna play that game?
23:43Now, what is wrong with this picture?
23:46What's wrong, Gail?
23:47It should have a lid on it.
23:49Oh, boy, you are a smart child.
23:52Now, take a look at this.
23:55That is the way a trash can should look.
23:58With a lid.
24:00But do I have a lid?
24:01I don't have a lid.
24:03Oh, Oscar.
24:04Somebody stole my lid.
24:06Oscar, I'm sure you're going to find it.
24:08I sure hope so.
24:11I tell you, Jenny, at a time like this,
24:14I wish I could get on a train or a bus or a boat or a plane
24:19and go somewhere far away.
24:44I wish I could get on a train and go somewhere far away.
25:02I wish I could get on a train and go somewhere.
25:02Oh, that's fine.
25:08I wish I could get on a train.
25:09There that is.
25:13I wish I could get on a train and get on a train.
25:16I wish I could get on a train.
25:16I wish I could.
25:16I wish I could get on it.
25:20Let's go.
25:51Let's go.
26:19Let's go.
26:49Let's go.

30:35Yes, we're going for a ride.
30:38Yes, we're going for a ride.
30:43Oh, what are you doing?
30:44Why are you driving that thing?
30:46Help! Help! I'm sinking!
30:52Well, without my lid, my trash can is nothing.
30:56I'm gonna go for a ride somewhere far away.
31:00I'm all packed.
31:02Oh, Oscar, I heard the bad news and I've come to help.
31:07Oh, well, did you find my lid?
31:09No, no, no, but I have an idea.
31:12I was reading my newspaper and Gordon came over and told me that your lid was missing.
31:18Excuse the expression.
31:19I have an idea that why don't we, until we find your lid,
31:24why don't we use my newspaper to cover your trash can, eh?
31:28What do you think?
31:29Well, it might be worth a try.
31:32Good, good.
31:33So why don't you go down inside and I'll put my paper over your trash can, right?
31:38Well, okay.
31:43There.
31:45How's that?
31:46Well, uh, it's not as good as my own lid, but it's okay.
31:51Good.
31:51Thanks, Mr. Hooper.
31:53Thanks, Mr. Hooper.
31:53It's nice and dark again.
31:55I'm gonna take a nap.
31:56Fine.
31:57Fine.
31:58You do that and I'll see you later.
32:03Ah.
32:03Oh.
32:05Elm Street had a block party.
32:07The whole neighborhood was there.
32:09There were over 100 and 100 and...
32:11Turn to page two.
32:13Turn to page two.
32:14Find out about the...
32:18Hey, Gad.
32:19Oh.
32:19That terrible sunlight.
32:20Oh, hold on.
32:20What's wrong?
32:21I'm sorry.
32:21I'm sorry, Oscar.
32:22I was reading about Elm Street's block party and it said turn to page two to find out how
32:27many was there and so I turned to page two.
32:29Yeah.
32:30And there goes my nap.
32:32I tell you, you go down.
32:33I'll put the paper back on top of it, eh?
32:35Well, okay.
32:37Good.
32:42All right.
32:43That's better.
32:44Good.
32:44Good night.
32:47Oh, my favorite basketball team.
32:50They won 18 games in the last few moments of the 18th game and 20 seconds to play.
32:57Four points to make.
32:58Fraser was.
32:59Fraser was.
33:00Continued on page three.
33:02I'll try quietly.
33:04He won't know it.
33:07Continued on page three.
33:09Oh, I, um, uh, I'm sorry, Oscar.
33:13Yeah.
33:15It doesn't matter.
33:16A newspaper makes a terrible lid.
33:19And I know you'll want to read every page.
33:22Nice.
33:22First it'll be page one.
33:24All right.

34:20Let's see.
34:21We got one leg, and then we got two legs, and three legs, and four legs, and five legs.
34:34Five legs?
34:36Hey, Ernie, what are you drawing?
34:38I'm drawing a dog.
34:40A dog doesn't have five legs, Ernie.
34:43Well, mine does.
34:45Let's see.
34:46So you got one, two, three, four, five legs.
34:50Yeah, well, a dog has one, two, three, four legs, and a tail. Now, that's a tail, Ernie.
34:58No, no, Bert. That's a leg. One, two, three, four, five legs.
35:02No, look, look, look. Now, all the other legs have paws, right? Now, if that's a leg, where's its paw,
35:09huh?
35:09Its paw?
35:10Yeah.
35:13Well, let's go shopping with its maw.
35:22One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

36:39Three, fruit eggs.
36:40Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop.
36:45And I want to have five.
36:51You know what that is?
36:53That's a five.
36:55Now, five is more than one, or two, or three, or four.
37:00And you know what I've got five of?
37:02I'll tell you.
37:03Oh, I've got five people in my family, and there's not one of them I'd swap.
37:15There is a sister, and two brothers, and a mother, and a pup.
37:22That's me.
37:23Oh, five is such a pretty number.
37:27I'm awfully glad that I've five people in my family.
37:35One, two, three, four, five.
37:39One.
37:40Two.
37:41Three.
37:42Four.
37:43Five.
37:46Oh, I've got five people in my family.
37:50That's true.
37:51And there's not one of them that I'd ever swap.
37:53Oh, no.
37:54There is a sister, and two brothers, and a mother, and a pup.
38:01That's him.
38:02Oh, I've got such a pretty number.
38:06I'm awfully glad that I've five people in my family.
38:14One, two, three, four, five.
38:18One.
38:19Two.
38:20Three.
38:21Four.
38:22One, two, three, four, five.
38:26Susan, Jenny, I have looked all over everywhere trying to find that lid, that trashcan lid that
38:33belongs to Oscar, and I cannot find it.
38:34You can't find it?
38:35Can't find it.
38:36Well, I looked in the basement at 123 Sesame Street, and I couldn't find it.
38:39Oh, and I looked in a lot behind the fence.
38:41Nothing there.
38:42Oh, nothing.
38:43Oh.
38:43I went up and down this street at least three times.
38:45I couldn't find it.
38:46Where could it have gone?
38:47We're out of luck.
38:48We're just plain out of luck.
38:50Oh, this is gonna happen.
38:51Every, yeah.
38:52Hey.
38:53Hey.
38:54What's, uh, what's a trash truck doing coming here this time of day?
38:58I don't know.
38:59It's too late.
39:00They picked the trash up already today.
39:02Oh, this is Sam.
39:03Hi, Sam.
39:05Hi, Sam.
39:05Hi, Sam.
39:07Listen to what happened.
39:08Yeah.
39:08This morning, when I picked up the trash, it seemed as though I picked up Oscar's lid right
39:13along with it.
39:14Oh!
39:16Listen.
39:16I know Oscar must have been pretty mad at me, so I made a special trip back, and I brought
39:21the ashcan lid back.
39:22Oh, good, good.
39:24Way to go, Sam.
39:25I wrapped it up pretty nice there, so he wouldn't be too mad.
39:28Yeah, yeah, yeah.
39:29So you be sure to give that to Oscar now, will you?
39:31We'll do that, Sam.
39:32And thanks a lot.
39:32It was a beautiful job.
39:34Oscar, I owe you an ice cream soda.
39:36I'll see y'all there tomorrow, mister.
39:38Okay.
39:38Bye, Sam.
39:39Bye.
39:40Hey, listen.
39:40Let's go take this down to Oscar right now.
39:42Yeah.
39:43Oh, when he sees this.
39:46Oh, man.
39:47Open the can, Oscar.
39:49Open the can.
39:50I don't have to open it.
39:52Why?
39:52There's no lid to shut.
39:54So, that's why I'm leaving.
39:55I'm moving away.
39:58Forever.
39:59Oh, Oscar.
40:00Really?
40:01When I was little, my granddaddy said to me, Oscar, he said.
40:06He always called me Oscar.
40:08Oh, that's nice.
40:09He called him Oscar.
40:10He said to me, granddaddy, that is.
40:13He always said, always remember that a trashcan without a lid is no home for a grouch.
40:22Such a lovely thought.
40:24It is.
40:25That's right.
40:26Granddaddy was right.
40:28Oh, really?
40:28So, I must find another home.
40:31So, so long, you guys.
40:33Oh, wait a minute, Oscar.
40:34Wait, Oscar.
40:35Before you go, we have a little token of our esteem.
40:39We have a going away present for you.
40:41Huh?
40:41Yes.
40:42It is?
40:43Well, it's very nice of you.
40:46Gee, that's a pretty package.
40:47Yes.
40:47It's very nice of you.
40:49Would you open it for me?
40:51Oh, yeah.
40:51All right.
40:52Let's open it.
40:53Get it open.
40:54All right.
40:57How about that?
40:58Look.
40:59Look.
41:00It's, it's, it's my lid.
41:02Yeah.
41:03My beautiful lid.
41:04Oh, it's beautiful.
41:06Look at it.
41:07Yeah.
41:07Look at the beautiful shape.
41:09Yeah.
41:09Look at the beautiful handle there.
41:11Yeah.
41:12It's beautiful.
41:13Oh, yeah.
41:14Where'd you find it?
41:14Listen, Sam the trash man picked it up by mistake this morning and he brought it back.
41:19Wasn't that nice of him to bring it back?
41:20Yeah, he brought it.
41:21Well, yeah.
41:22Okay, yeah.
41:22A special trip.
41:23Hey, let's try it.
41:24Put it on and see if it fits.
41:25Okay.
41:25Yeah.
41:26Here we go.
41:26Put it on.
41:28Oh, let's see.
41:29It fits back this way, I think.
41:31It fits!
41:34Ah, look at that.
41:36It's beautiful.
41:37Oh, look at this lovely lid.
41:38He's having...
41:39I call this lid Lydia.
41:41I love it.
41:41I'm so glad you're happy, Oscar.
41:43Happy?
41:44Yeah, to get your lid back and everything.
41:46Who's happy?
41:47I haven't been able to take my nap.
41:49Oh.
41:49So, why don't you all go away and leave me alone?
41:52But, Oscar...
41:52Come on, go on out of here.
41:54Huzzah!
41:55But, Oscar...
41:55Alright, come on, come on.
41:58We don't know how to act.
41:59Oh, boy.
41:59I'm sorry.
41:59Do something for him.
42:06My lid even begins with a pretty letter.
42:10The letter L.
42:12The beautiful word LID begins with a beautiful letter L.
42:20Ahem!
42:23L!
42:24Lunchbox.
42:31L.
42:32Well, now that Oscar's got his trash can lid back, we can settle down and get down to the serious
42:37story.
42:38This is called Tony and the Toll Collector.
42:41You know what a Toll Collector is?
42:43It's a guy who collects tolls on bridges or highways or places like that.
42:48Tony's a little boy, and he runs into the Toll Collector.
42:51Toll Collector's name is Mr. Morton.
42:54And Mr. Morton collected tolls at a toll booth on the highway.
42:59And he said,
43:01Good morning.
43:02He said,
43:03Good afternoon.
43:04He said,
43:06When people asked how to get somewhere, he gave them directions.
43:10Turn off at exit 16, take Route 27 for three miles, and you'll come out to Hopkinsville, Hopkinsville.
43:17And every morning he kept his eye out for his friend Tony.
43:22Every day, Tony's father drove him to school.
43:26Mr. Morton always said,
43:28Good morning, Tony.
43:29Tony always said,
43:31Good morning, Mr. Morton.
43:32And handed him a quarter.
43:34Thank you, Tony, said Mr. Morton.
43:36You're welcome, Mr. Morton, said Tony.
43:39Have a nice day in school, called Mr. Morton.
43:43One day, though, Tony did not hand Mr. Morton a quarter.
43:47He handed him a green frog.
43:53On Halloween, Tony scared Mr. Morton with a mask.
43:58In December, he handed him a snowball.
44:04On Valentine's Day, he handed Mr. Morton a red lollipop.
44:11Mr. Morton never knew what to expect, but he always looked for Tony.
44:15And Tony always looked for Mr. Morton.
44:17On the last day of school, Tony said goodbye to Mr. Morton.
44:22Have a nice summer, Tony.
44:24See you when school starts, Mr. Morton.
44:28All summer, Tony collected surprises to hand Mr. Morton at the toll booth when he went back to school in
44:34the fall.
44:35Oh, he got him a snail, and he had a ladybug ready, and a worm, and a bottle cap, and
44:43many, many, many other things.
44:47In the fall, on the first day of school, Tony ran to the car.
44:51Oh, he was very excited.
44:53He could hardly wait to see Mr. Morton at the toll booth.
44:57He leaned out the window as they got near the toll booth.
45:02But, Mr. Morton was gone.
45:05Instead of Mr. Morton, there was just a basket to drop coins into.
45:14One of the other toll collectors told Tony that Mr. Morton had been replaced by the basket early in the
45:21summer.
45:23Oh, I don't know where he went.
45:26Tony's father let him off at the school.
45:29Tony was very sad.
45:32It's no fun going to school, he said, if I can't see Mr. Morton.
45:40Be careful crossing the street, said Tony's father, and drove away.
45:44Tony waited on the sidewalk for the crossing guard to tell him to cross.
45:50Tony couldn't believe what he saw.
45:54The guard was Mr. Morton.
45:59This is my new job, said Mr. Morton.
46:02It's much nicer than standing at a toll booth, and I'll see you every day.
46:09Any surprises for me this year, Tony?
46:12Mr. Morton asked as Tony started in the school.
46:15You'll find out, called Tony, and he went into school.
46:20Now, how about that story?
46:23Tony and the Toll Collector.
46:26Tony and the Toll Collector is the name of the book,
46:29and if you look at that title, Tony and the Toll Collector,
46:34you'll see that in the word Toll, there are two L's, right there.
46:41And if you look in the word Collector, you'll see that there are two L's.
46:45And so, here is a message from the letter L.
46:51Oh, hello there. I'd like you to meet my friend, the letter L.
46:56Recognize it? L is very useful, and so are things beginning with an L.
47:00Here's one. A ladder.
47:03A ladder is very useful when you want to climb up to a high place, like this.
47:08Hey, that was easy.
47:14Hey, come back here! I need that! Hey!
47:19A ladder is also a useful thing to get down from a high place.
47:33You know, whenever I sit down to have a cup of coffee, I think about a story my grandmother used
47:38to tell me about a cup and saucer.
47:40Have you ever heard of a cup and saucer story, Sarah?
47:42No.
47:43Well, once there was this lady, she had this nice cup and saucer, and she used to like to drink
47:48coffee a lot.
47:49And she would always take her cup and saucer, and she'd put the saucer under the cup, and she'd put
47:56the cup on the saucer.
47:58Now, there was a good reason for that, because whenever she got ready to pour her coffee,
48:04if she had the saucer under the cup, then that would catch any coffee that happened to drip out, and
48:10would keep it off her nice tablecloth, you know.
48:12Or, when she got ready to take cookies, she had a place to put them right there on her saucer,
48:18sitting there quietly under the cup.
48:20See, that was a good place to put them.
48:23And day after day, the saucer would just sit there quietly under the cup, doing its job, holding the cookies,
48:29until someone came along and ate a cookie.
48:32Or until a drip of coffee would drip down into the saucer or something like that.
48:40Well, finally one day, you know, the saucer got awfully discontented, just sitting there all the time, so he said,
48:47Hey, cup! Cup, while the lady's awake, can we trade places?
48:53Why don't you sit under me sometimes and let me sit over you?
48:57The cup said, Eh, alright, it doesn't make me any of you, I don't care.
49:01Might be fun for change.
49:04So, they traded places while the lady was in the other room.
49:09The cup went under the saucer, and the saucer went over the cup.
49:13So they were laughing, Yeah!
49:16Wait till she comes back, she won't know what happened.
49:19So the lady came back in the room, and she got ready to have another cup of coffee,
49:23and whoop, all of a sudden she stopped, because there was a saucer over the cup.
49:28And there was a cup sitting under the saucer.
49:30So the lady put the coffee pot down, and she said,
49:33Well, I guess I can't have any coffee today, because the cup is under the saucer,
49:40instead of the saucer being under the cup.
49:43So they heard her, and they laughed.
49:45We fooled her.
49:46And she said, And another thing, if I come back tomorrow,
49:51and the cup is still under the saucer, instead of the saucer under the cup,
49:55well, I guess I'll have to give this cup and saucer away,
49:58because they're not going to do me any good.
50:00I can't drink coffee out of the saucer, only kittens drink out of a saucer,
50:05and I'm certainly not going to put my cookies in the cup.
50:10And so the cup and saucer said,
50:13Oh, wow, I think she's going to give us away if we don't get back in our own positions.
50:18Quick, let's change.
50:20So the saucer went back under the cup, and the cup jumped back on the saucer,
50:25and they were sitting there waiting for the lady to come back.
50:28So she came back, and she said,
50:30Oh, I guess my cup and saucer are back in their old place,
50:33so I can have some more coffee.
50:35And you know that's the way they stayed ever since?
50:38Not really.
50:41Now, I'm going to play a game with you, and I want you,
50:44wait a minute, something there.
50:46I want you to find the hidden animals in this drawing,
50:49and then when you find it, I'll draw, outline it.
50:51Outline it.
50:51Okay, you first, Gail. What do you see?
50:54A bird.
50:56A what? A bird.
50:58Where do you see that?
50:59Oh, that's not really hidden. There's a little bird right in there.
51:02I forgot that I drew a little teeny bird flying off in the distance.
51:06Anything else?
51:07Yeah.
51:09Do you find anything?
51:11What? What, Gail?
51:12Now that is a hidden bird.
51:15Here we have a hidden bird.
51:17You drew that?
51:19Uh-huh, I drew that.
51:23Wait a minute, let me get his head in there.
51:25Okay.
51:27And the rest of his wing.
51:29There.
51:32Can you see something else?
51:34Mm-hmm.
51:35There's, um...
51:35You want me to tell you what? You saw something else. What?
51:37Where is it?
51:38But it's not an animal.
51:39Oh, what is it? Well, wait.
51:41We'll get the animals first.
51:43There's, um, there's a rabbit in there.
51:44Can you see a rabbit?
51:47And there's a deer.
51:49I can't see.
51:50Why don't you come on around here, then?
51:53Come on.
51:54Come on.
51:54Come around with...
51:55No, come on over this side.
51:56Oh, I have a deer.
51:58There, now you can see better.
51:59A deer?
52:00See? You see a deer anywhere?
52:01Wait, no, excuse me.
52:03What's that?
52:05What's that?
52:06You don't know what that is?
52:08That's a horse.
52:08A horse.
52:10Well, it's a U is what it is.
52:12Wait till we turn it right side up.
52:14It's a magnet.
52:14It's a magnet.
52:15Just a second, let me turn it around.
52:16There. Now, do you see it?
52:18See the U?
52:19It's a magnet.
52:21Now, let's see if we can find anything else in this thing.
52:24There are big animals.
52:25There's a big deer in there.
52:27There's a raccoon and a rabbit.
52:29We found them both all at once.
52:31Here, we'll just do a little raccoon.
52:32Little ears.
52:36See, he has his black eyes.
52:38Like this.
52:40There he is.
52:41All right, now, let's find a letter.
52:44There's a U, and here's a Y.
52:51There we go.
52:53There we go.
52:53That's the Y.
52:54Okay, now, let's see if we can find the rest of the animals.
52:56I'm gonna finish drawing in this little raccoon here, so that we can see his little tail.
53:02Let's see if we can find the animals.
53:05Where's the Y?
53:06There's the one right there.
53:08Okay, now, what can you find, Gail?
53:12See anything?
53:15That.
53:16Well, what's that?
53:17No.
53:18A tree.
53:19What else?
53:20Oh, no.
53:21Come on.
53:22Wait a minute.
53:23It's Gail's turn.
53:24That?
53:24What is that?
53:26Huh?
53:27A sleigh.
53:29No.
53:30A stick.
53:31That?
53:32Uh-huh.
53:32What is that?
53:36It's a reindeer.
53:38A reindeer.
53:39Right.
53:40We got that.
53:43See if we can put his ears in like that.
53:47Reindeers like to be in the woods, you know.
53:49I want to go.
53:50I want to go.
53:52Okay, now it's Reginald's turn.
53:55Reginald's turn.
53:57Here we go.
53:58See what you can find, Reginald.
54:00Oh.
54:00You see anything?
54:02Hmm?
54:03There's a rabbit.
54:04That's what we have in here.
54:06And see if there's a letter.
54:08Remember there's another letter in here.
54:10Quick.
54:11Quick, quick.
54:13Don't remember?
54:15There's another letter.
54:16An L.
54:17See if you can find an L.
54:18Oh, yeah.
54:19I see it.
54:20That's it.
54:21There we go.
54:22We found all the letters.
54:23The U, L, and the Y.
54:25Now here's a word from the letter Y.
54:27Y.
54:30Yo-yo.
54:34Hmm.
54:45Hey, Jim.
54:52Oh, hello, buddy.
54:54Hey, Jim.
54:54Can I help you tidy the room up?
54:56Oh, thanks a lot.
54:58Why don't you put those shoes in the boxes that they came in?
55:04Yeah, they came in.
55:05Okay, Jim.
55:06Thanks a lot.
55:09Don't forget now.
55:10Put one pair of shoes in each of the boxes.
55:13Right.
55:14One pair of shoes in each box.
55:16Good boy.
55:17All right.
55:18Hey, Jim.
55:19How many is a pair?
55:23A pair is two.
55:26You put two shoes in each of the boxes.
55:29Right.
55:32One shoe and one shoe make a pair.
55:36Put the two shoes in the big box.
55:39Hmm.
55:40Hmm.
55:40One shoe and one shoe is another pair.
55:43And we put these in the little box.
55:45Hmm.
55:50Hmm.
55:53Hey, Jim.
55:56Are you sure that these are the right shoe boxes for the shoes here?
56:01Oh, sure, I'm sure.
56:03These are the boxes that the shoes can...
56:05I had a little trouble with this one here.
56:09You can't do anything right.
56:11Hmm.
56:11Now I'll have to do it myself.
56:14Now watch very closely and try to remember how I do it.
56:17Will you?
56:18All right.
56:18I'll watch and I'll learn.
56:19Watch and you'll learn.
56:20That's the way to learn.
56:21It's very simple.
56:22All right.
56:23I take these two shoes out of the big box.
56:26And I put them on the table.
56:28Right?
56:29That's right.
56:29Then I take the two shoes that are in the little box.
56:33Yeah.
56:33And I bring them way over here.
56:35And I'm gonna put them right in the big box.
56:38Was that hard?
56:39Well, you look at that.
56:42Ha!
56:43Well, you did it, huh?
56:44Sure, I did it.
56:45Now all we have to do is take these two shoes,
56:48and we put them right in the little box.
56:55Wait a minute.
56:57I think there's something wrong here.
57:00I'm sure these are the boxes that these shoes came in.
57:05Wait a minute, Jim.
57:06No shoes.
57:07Let me try.
57:08Look.
57:09Ha, ha, ha.
57:10Now.
57:11Buddy.
57:11What?
57:12What did you do that for?
57:14Well, Jim...
57:15Now you've got them all mixed up and we'll have to start all over again.
57:18I thought that if we put this shoe with this shoe and put them in the big box...
57:25Ha, ha, ha.
57:26And put this shoe with this shoe and put them in the little box, that...
57:37Well, I hope you're satisfied.
57:40You made a big mess of everything.
57:42Now we're worse off now than when we first started.
57:46Don't worry, Jim.
57:47Don't worry at all.
57:48I'll figure it out.
57:49I'll figure it out, Jim, if it takes me a million years.
57:51I'll handle this.
57:52Oh, forget about it.
57:55Since these shoes won't fit in the little box, you know what I'm gonna have to do?
58:00I'm gonna have to wear them out today.
58:02I'm sorry, Jim, that, uh, you have to wear those shoes.
58:06I did a lot of trouble with this box here.
58:09Hey, Jim.
58:11What you gonna do today, anyway?
58:13Today?
58:14I'm going to play tennis.
58:16Aww.
58:20Hey, we've gotta go, but we're coming back.
58:22Guess who's gonna say goodbye?
58:24Susan, say goodbye.
58:25Goodbye.
58:25Say goodbye.
58:27Goodbye.
