03:16Yeah, good idea
03:17Like a poet nose?
03:18A poet's nose, nose best
03:20Ah, now you can smell things like roses which are red

04:25June
04:25Hey, uh, Gordon

04:27Uh, you know, it's kind of hard to make friends with somebody if you can't even talk to them
04:30It's not your kind of cat, huh?
04:31No, I don't think so
04:32Okay, uh, Harvey
04:33Yes

05:19You know, you know, Gordon
05:21He looks kind of sad now
05:23Yeah
05:23Hello, friend
05:24Oh, gee, what did I say?
05:28You, you, you said, hello, friend
05:32Well, sure I did
05:33You see, if you're my friend and you're saying hello
05:39Then we're probably going to have a wonderful time today
05:43Well, what, what's so sad about that?
05:45You see, after we've had a wonderful time
05:48I'll have to say goodbye and go home for dinner
05:52I hate goodbyes
05:54Oh, but, uh, listen, uh, maybe, uh, maybe we could see each other again tomorrow, huh?
06:01But, but, but then tomorrow we'll have to say goodbye again
06:06again. Gordon, Gordon, I can't have a friend who's this sad. No, it would never work out,
06:17I can tell. It just wouldn't work out. He's getting to me, too. You're going to have to
06:21change him. Yeah, change him. Hurry, quick. Easy, easy, easy. Take it easy. I'm feeling
06:26better. How are you feeling better? I'm feeling better. All right. Let's see if we can't...

06:36his eyebrows. That usually does it. Hey, what's going on? Hey! Hey, you know, now he doesn't
06:41look so sad. Now he looks sort of mad. Hey! Oh, boy, does that make me mad. Well, what
06:47does? I really get mad when someone says I look like I'm mad. Well, I'm sorry. Oh, that

07:01I hate Ernie. Oh, what a terrible name. That really makes me mad, too. How do you get
07:06off of you guys' name Ernie? Gordon, listen, I don't think he's my kind of fellow. No, I
07:11don't think... I can't have him as a friend. Don't you think you can make some sort of guy
07:16who's, you know, sort of more like me? More like you? Yeah. Like you. Yeah. All right.
07:21Harvey. What? Harvey, come here. What? Bend down. Ah! Oh, yeah, he's different already.
07:29Yeah. I'm sorry about that. Oh, that's all right. I don't know what happened. That's

07:38You like that, Ernie? Yeah. It's the same color as mine. Right. Yeah. Okay. Uh, he doesn't
07:46seem to be hearing too well, either, you know? No. Can you hear anything? What? Oh. What'd

07:54anything? Okay. Oh. Oh, he's got an ear now. He's got an ear. What? Yeah. You got another
08:00one of those? No, you see, he has to listen on this side, too. Oh, I hear you. Your other
08:03ear. Your other ear. Yeah. Other ear. But you come here. Yeah. All right. Good. That's
08:08two ears. How's the other one? Okay. Good. Solid? Okay. That looks nice. Now, now he's looking
08:14more and more like you, Ernie. Change my eyes a little bit. Just a little bit. What?
08:18Change your eyes a little bit? Just a little bit. Yeah. Just a little bit. Oh, just a little
08:22bit. And they'll become Ernie eyes. Yeah. Look at that. Oh. Oh, yeah. Wow. You like
08:29that? Yeah. Okay? Yeah, my nose. How about a nose? The nose? Give me my nose. Oh, yeah.
08:34Yeah, yeah. Ernie nose. Yeah. Hmm. Is that in there really good? Make sure it's a good eye
08:43nose. That's looking good. That's looking good. Okay. Hey, gee, Ernie, old pal, old
08:50buddy. How'd you like to come over to my place and look at my toy box? Wow, Harvey, old
08:56fella. You know, that's a great idea. I'd like to do that. Attaboy, Ernie, old guy.
09:00You know, I've got a stuffed doggy, and I got a yo-yo, and a rubber ducky. A rubber ducky?
09:05You have a rubber ducky? I have a rubber ducky, too. You know, that's my very favorite toy of
09:09all. Hey, what other kind of toys do you have? Well, you know, we could play, uh,
09:13how about we could play tic-tac-toe? I think Ernie has just made a friend. Tic-tac-toe
09:15is my very favorite game of all. Sumiko, shall we put another one down here? Excuse me.
09:20Bob, would you like some coffee? Oh, I'd love some. Gee, I don't know what's taking Gordon
09:24so long. Oh, that doesn't matter, Susan. I just want to ask him a little favor anyways.
09:29Oh, well, he, you know, had a couple things to do. Now, Cheryl, what do you think will happen
09:34if I hit this domino right here? That one will fall. This one will fall? Uh-huh. And then
09:42that one will fall, and then the other one behind that one will fall. And then this one
09:46will fall, and this one will hit this one, and they'll go all the way down the line,
09:51you think? Shall we try it? Shall we give it a try, Sumiko? Okay, here we go. You count to
09:56three, and I'll do it on three. One, two, three. Whoa, it worked. Hey, how about that? Hey,
10:06do you know how to play dominoes? Let me find a number here, like, uh, four, okay? Here's
10:15one, two, three, four, right? And we'll set that right down there. Now, can you find another
10:22four, Cheryl? There's one. And you can place it right next to it, like that. You can find

12:56It's just a little favor, anyway, that I wanted to ask of him.
12:59Well, you know, Ernie asked him to do him a favor
13:02by helping him solve some problem he had,
13:04and he was supposed to help the anything people
13:09dress themselves as mice.
13:10Oh, yeah.
13:11But he certainly should've done that by now.

14:58He's been sitting here for at least two hours waiting for you to get home.
15:01Oh, never mind.
15:03A favor?
15:04Yeah.
15:04You kidding me?
15:06No.
15:07Another favor today?
15:07Well, I had just one little one, but it's not really that important.
15:11Okay, come on, come on.
15:11One more favor's not gonna hurt anybody.
15:12You sure?
15:13Yeah, come on.
15:13What is it?
15:14Well, I brought some mice home from school.
15:16They're out in the front steps in a little glass box.
15:19Yeah.
15:19And I promised Sally that she could stop by later tonight and pick one or two of them out
15:24for a pet.
15:25And I wanted to leave them here if I could.
15:27Well, let's go take a look at them.
15:29How many are there?
15:30Uh, five.
15:32Hmm.
15:39One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

16:14One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
16:23Okay, come on.
16:24Hey, let's go, girls.
16:25You mean they were right here all this time?
16:26Yeah, they were sitting right there.
16:28It's one of you didn't see them on the way in.
16:29Look at them.
16:30Hey, aren't they cute?
16:31Take a seat, Cheryl.
16:33Let's see what we got here.
16:34We got five mice in here.
16:36Yeah.
16:37Let's take a look at this one, huh?
16:41You like mice, do you?
16:44You like them, Cheryl?
16:45Do you know what a mouse is called, mice are called, what kind of an animal it is?
16:49Do you ever hear of a rodent?
16:51You never heard of a rodent?
16:54No, that's...
16:54A mouse is one kind of rodent, right?
16:57Right.
16:58Can you think of any other kinds of rodents?
17:00A rat?
17:01A rat, right.
17:02Can you think of another one?
17:05You ever heard of woodchucks?
17:08Beavers?
17:09Mm, yeah, beaver.
17:10That's another one.
17:11That's another one.
17:13You know what?
17:13A beaver and a mouse...
17:16Come here, mouse.
17:17Come here, mouse.
17:18Oh, come on.
17:19Get up here, mouse.
17:19Who's he want?
17:20Oh, cool.
17:21There he is.
17:23How about that?
17:24You know, most rodents have very sharp teeth in the front for gnawing things, like the beaver.
17:30You know, they can build their homes and chop down trees and things.
17:33This one likes my shirt, my finger.
17:35He likes...
17:35He can eat shirts and fingers.
17:39Now, he's a nice little mouse.
17:40He really is.
17:41These are nice.
17:41Talk about it.
17:42They make nice pets.
17:44Look at it.
17:44He's really going right out for the old finger trick here.
17:51Hello.
17:55You know...
17:56I'm sorry.
17:56Go ahead.
17:57You were going to say something?
17:58Yeah.
17:58Do you know what the biggest rodent in the whole world is?
18:01No.
18:01There's one in South America, and he's over 75 to 100 pounds.
18:08You mean like a mouse, and it's 75 to 100 pounds?
18:12It's still a rodent.
18:12He can, you know, swim.
18:15Does he gnaw?
18:16And he's still a gnaw, yeah.
18:17They can all gnaw very well with those front teeth.
18:22Yeah.
18:23They have to keep gnawing, because that's the only way they can keep their teeth from just growing all over
18:27the place.
18:28Hey, let's put them back in here and make sure how many we've got, all right?
18:30Okay.
18:31Shall we all count them together?
18:33Ready?

21:55Wait a second.
21:55Come back here.
21:56Come back here.
21:57Now that I've found you, what can I do to help you?
21:59Oh, well, you see, I got this package to deliver to this lady, and I don't know where she lives.
22:05Oh, wow, you've come to the right man.
22:07Because, you see, I know everybody in the whole neighborhood.
22:10Oh, good.
22:10Now, what's this lady's name?
22:12Oh, her name.
22:12Yeah, it's, uh, it says it's Marianne.
22:17Now, his last name I can't pronounce.
22:19I'll spell it.
22:19Okay.
22:20Okay?

23:10R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z?
23:13Hmm?
23:15Uh, let me check.
23:17It's, uh, oh, yeah, it's Mrs. Marianne.
23:25Uh, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S,
23:31T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.
23:32Oh, yeah, yeah, sure.
23:34I remember her.
23:35Yeah, she lives just a couple blocks down, you know?
23:37Oh, yeah?
23:38Yeah, she lives right upstairs from Harold, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
23:43That's his name?
23:45One, Harold, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10?
23:48Yeah, yeah, that's right.
23:50You see, they're both schoolteachers.
23:52You see, Marianne, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q,
23:56R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.
23:58Yeah.
23:59Teaches spelling.
24:00Teaches spelling.
24:01Hey, wait a minute.
24:02Hey, hey.
24:03Marianne, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S,
24:09T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.

24:11Yep.
24:12Hey, hey, then Harold, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 is a schoolteacher, too?
24:18That's right.
24:18I bet I can guess what he teaches.
24:20Okay.
24:21If Marianne, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R,
24:27S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.
24:29Teaches spelling.
24:30I bet old Harold, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 teaches arithmetic.
24:35No, no.
24:36He's a music teacher.
24:37A music teacher?
24:38Yeah, he teaches a lot of great musical numbers.
24:44I gotta deliver this package.
24:46Yeah, yeah, you do that.
24:47It's important.
24:48How do you know?
24:49It's from me.
24:50Figures.
24:55I have a picture, and I want you to tell me how many things you see that are wrong.
25:05Let's look over here first.
25:08What's wrong in this picture?
25:09There's an L.
25:11There's a book.
25:12Wait a minute.
25:12What is this right here?
25:14It's a tree.
25:14It's a tree.
25:15And look at all the things hanging in it besides leaves.
25:19What do you see, Bryn?
25:19I see an L.
25:21I see a book.
25:22I see a bump.
25:24I see a boat.
25:26I see an apple.
25:27Uh-huh.
25:28And what else is going on with the tree, Duncan?
25:31Well, how can there be steps and a door there?
25:33And also, there's a van walking over.
25:36Walking right up the side of the tree.
25:37Boy, that's something.
25:38What about this picture here?
25:41Well, there's one boy, tall boy, I'll say, on one side of the seesaw, and on the other
25:52side, there's not one.
25:54Well, not only that, but, you know, there would have to be somebody heavy on this side
25:58to make the seesaw go that high, right?
26:00And there's nobody there at all.
26:02Maybe it's the invisible man with him, you think?
26:05Yeah.
26:06What about the bicycles up here?
26:08Oh, boy, that's...
26:09Have you ever seen a bicycle built for two?
26:10I see them in the park sometimes.
26:12Yeah, but I've never seen one like that.
26:14What's different about this one?
26:16They're both fronts, and they're both in different ways, and I don't know how they're going to
26:21get any points.
26:22Yes, if they were really a bicycle built for two or a tandem bike, they'd have to at least
26:27be both going in the same direction, right?
26:30Yeah.
26:30Oh, that's pretty good.
26:31Unless one boy goes back.
26:33No, they couldn't function like that.
26:36Oh, look at this one.
26:37Oh, yeah.
26:39Duncan, you tell me the first thing you see wrong.
26:43Well, there's two doorknobs on the door.
26:45Two doorknobs on the door and two keyholes on either side.
26:49Oh, boy.
26:49What should happen?
26:51They should have a hinge over here so the door can open this way, or hinges over here
26:56so the door can open like that, all right?
26:57What else do you see, Brent?
26:58I see a fish in the window, and the window's upside down.
27:04Oh, all right.
27:04Let's first deal with this fish in the window.
27:07This looks like it might be water with the fish floating around, but it's really the window.
27:12And the curtains are going the wrong way.
27:15See?
27:16Isn't that something?
27:17Yeah.
27:18Okay, what else do you see, Duncan?
27:23Um, I don't know if that ladder should be there or not.
27:27Where could this ladder really be in the right place like that?
27:31Only it wouldn't be a ladder.
27:32It would be a straight pole.
27:33Have you ever visited a firehouse?
27:36The firehouse may be the only place with a hole like that, with a pole, where the firemen jump out
27:41of bed and slide down the pole.
27:42But I don't think they'd climb down a ladder like that.
27:44And also, there should be, like, a little stick right there, or else it'd have to be a big step.
27:49Another rung on the ladder.
27:51Okay, what about Grandpa in the playpen?
27:53Nobody said anything about Grandpa in the playpen?
27:55I know.
27:56That's kind of funny.
27:57Yeah, what's...
27:58I've never seen a Grandpa in a playpen.
28:00Not in a playpen.
28:01Or...
28:01He's too old.
28:02Who belongs in the playpen?
28:04A baby.
28:05A baby.
28:06One more thing.
28:07I see.
28:08The house is upside down.
28:09House...
28:09Okay.
28:09The picture of the house is upside down.
28:12So the picture must be hanging upside down.
28:15Okay, gang, what's this picture of?
28:18A wall.
28:19A wall.
28:20There's nothing wrong with this wall.
28:21It's just a nice brick wall.
28:23There are all kinds of walls, and some you wouldn't even think of as being walls.
28:45Walls.
28:47Walls.
28:48W-A-L-L-S.
28:54Walls.
28:58Tall walls.
29:20More walls.
29:45Some walls stop things.
30:11Walls you never thought of.
30:16The side of a fishbowl, a box, a screen is a wall, a newspaper, oven walls, a blanket
30:39can be a wall, a road divider.
31:00Walls.
31:05Some walls are for playing games.
31:31Walls.
31:34All the last few days we have been talking about three letters.
31:38That's right.
31:39Yes.
31:40Do you have them straight?
31:41Oh, of course I do.
31:43I'm a smart bird.
31:45Good.
31:45Good.
31:47Here's the first one, Big Bird.
31:48Now, what letter is this?
31:50That's an O.
31:53Nope.
31:55Okay, Big Bird.
31:56Try this one.
31:57Try this one.
31:58What letter is this?
31:58That's the crooked-y thing.
32:02No, no, no.
32:03Big Bird.
32:03No?
32:05That's the letter three.
32:08Big Bird.
32:09Think for a moment.
32:11Big Bird.
32:12Now, take one letter.
32:13This one.
32:14What is it?
32:15Can you give me a hint?
32:17Big Bird, I'll be happy to give you a hint.
32:24A salute to the letter U.
32:30Useful for words beginning with U, little words such as use, big words such as university.
32:39And in between words such as ukulele.
32:46Without the letter U, there would be no universe or uranium.
32:55Without the letter U, units would be.
32:59Nets?
33:00Policemen would have no uniforms and nothing would be useful.
33:06For instance, whoever heard of an I, oh.
33:11So here's to you, you.
33:14You've earned your place in the alphabet.
33:17And so to you, you.
33:19For your unique, universal usability, we say thank you, you.
33:27Anybody want to buy a used U?
33:30Cool.
33:31So, do you know what the letter is now?
33:34I think so, but I don't know how.
33:37It's the letter U.
33:39Yeah.
33:40But how am I ever going to remember that?
33:42I'll never remember that.
33:42Another way to remember it is to think of the letter U like a bag.
33:47It's open at the top and you can put things into it.
33:51Oh, yeah.
33:52The letter U bag?
33:54That could be a bag and you could keep eggs in it.
33:58I'll think of it in the future as a bag of eggs.
34:02Oh, yeah.
34:02Okay.
34:03All right.
34:03You want to look at it like that, Big Bird.
34:05All right.
34:05Pay attention, Big Bird.
34:06Big Bird.
34:06What is this?
34:08That is a bent thing.
34:11Uh...
34:12Uh...
34:12Big Bird.
34:13I'll tell you what.
34:15Here's a couple of hints.
34:19Oh, hello there.
34:21I'd like you to meet my friend, the letter L.
34:24Recognize it?
34:25L is very useful and so are things beginning with an L.
34:28Here's one.
34:29A ladder.
34:31A ladder is very useful when you want to climb up to a high place like this.
34:36Hey.
34:37Hey.
34:38Hey.
34:40That was easy.
34:42Hey!
34:43Come back here.
34:44I need that.
34:45Hey!
34:46A ladder is also a useful thing to get down from a high place.
34:59L. Lunchbox.

37:22once upon a time there was a bad man who was a robber and he went into a furniture store
37:30well he took a chair well he was running away with the chair and the people saw him and they
37:37started
37:38to chase him the chair was very heavy to carry and so he thought for a second and he pulled
37:44the legs
37:45off the chair and threw them away now that the chair was lighter he could run faster and he was
37:51getting away meanwhile in the next town another naughty bad man had broken into a supermarket
38:00well he had taken a bag of eggs he was running away with the bag of eggs and the people
38:08said hey
38:09there's a fellow running away with the bag of eggs and they chased him well the eggs were very very
38:15heavy
38:16he could hardly carry him after a while so he threw the eggs away and found that the bag was
38:21a lot lighter
38:22and he could run faster the both robbers were getting away until they ran down towards a fork in the
38:30road
38:31one ran down one road and one ran down the other and they bumped into each other right where the
38:36two roads
38:37met and they fell down and they dropped the empty bag of eggs and the chair without the legs
38:46and the people caught them the end wow big bird that's quite a story i never would have thought
38:54about that no no well listen big bird since you told a story of the uh forks in the road

56:09Very good friends are big and little.
56:13Big plays the tuba and little plays the fiddle.
56:16Big is rather dark and little is kind of light
56:20and they practice together in the day and night.
56:33In the parks they play and in places that are gritty.
56:37Their music is heard in the middle of the city.
56:41The sounds that they make are thought to be funny,
56:44but they play for the love of it and not for money.
