00:00Good morning, this is Sesame Street, show number 39 in color.
00:38THE END
01:02Sunny day, sweeping the clouds away, on my way to where the air is free.
01:15Can't you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?
01:22Call and play, everything's A-OK.
01:29Friendly neighbors there, that's where we meet.
01:34Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?
01:40How to get to Sesame Street?
01:44How to get to Sesame Street?
01:48All right, I thought we'd get one more going.
01:51I think I'm going to do that one.
01:56Wow, that's a tie, that's a tie, that's just about easy.
02:00Come on, let's get back to the other one.
02:01Hi, it's just in time for the World Championship of Card Throwing.
02:06Josh against Christopher, it's a very tight game.
02:09But I'll tell you what, while you're here, I want you to watch a very gripping, intense story.
02:16And it stars the anything people, you know them, right?
02:19And it's called, A Boy, A Girl, and Jelly Beans.
02:26Go ahead, Josh.
02:29The Story of the Boy and the Girl and the Jelly Beans.
02:36Chapter One.
02:43Oh, boy, am I happy.
02:45I mean, I just feel fine.
02:47I'm feeling so groovy.
02:49And I'm feeling happy because I have my little bag of jelly beans here.
02:52And jelly beans are the greatest.
02:54Because I just love jelly beans.
02:56And whenever I have me a few jelly beans, I just feel groovy.
03:04Hello there, little girl.
03:06How are you?
03:07Oh, how am I?
03:10Yes, how are you?
03:10I'm sad.
03:11That's how I am.
03:12I'm miserable.
03:13That's how I am.
03:15I'm crying.
03:16That's how sad I am.
03:19Oh.
03:20I guess you are sad.
03:22Hey, well, listen, I'm feeling groovy.
03:23Maybe I can help you.
03:25What's wrong?
03:28I lost my jelly beans.
03:33Well, you lost your jelly beans.
03:35Well, that's not so bad.
03:38I mean, it's nothing to cry about.
03:41Nothing to cry about.
03:42No, there's nothing to cry about.
03:43Nothing to cry about.
03:44Jelly beans are the greatest.
03:46Jelly beans are the best.
03:48That's true.
03:48Did you ever lose your jelly beans?
03:49Well, no, but...
03:50Well, then you don't know how I feel.
03:53The only way you can know who I am is if you had some jelly beans and you lost them,
03:59too.
04:00Well, gee, listen.
04:03Listen, I've got some jelly beans.
04:11You don't?
04:13Yes.
04:15And...
04:16And...
04:16And you know what?
04:17What?
04:18I'm feeling so happy and so good that I'm going to give you my jelly beans.
04:24You what?
04:25Yeah, sure.
04:26Here.
04:29Oh, that's fantastic.
04:32My jelly beans.
04:33Oh, thank you.
04:35Oh, I feel great.
04:36I feel groovy.
04:37Oh, I want to have my jelly beans.
04:39Oh, jelly beans.
04:40Oh, bye-bye.
04:41Oh, oh, oh, oh.
04:43There.
04:45I cheered her up.
04:46I gave her my jelly beans and I cheered her up.
04:50Oh, I gave her my jelly beans.
04:53My...
04:54I gave her my jelly beans.
04:56I gave them away.
04:58The jelly beans are the greatest.
05:00And now I don't have any.
05:02I've...
05:02I've lost my jelly beans.
05:04Oh, no.
05:06Oh, oh, how sad I am.
05:08Oh, how unhappy I am.
05:10Because nobody could know how unhappy I am unless they'd lost their jelly beans.
05:16Oh, oh, dear.
05:17Oh, dear.
05:19Will our hero ever get his jelly beans back?
05:23I don't.
05:23Stay tuned.
05:25In a few minutes, we'll be back with part two of our story.
05:35That was chapter one of the boy, the girl, and the jelly beans.
05:40I won an ace, man.
05:42Now, listen.
05:44I won.
05:48Do you know that sound?
05:53Out of balance.
05:53It's a siren.
05:54No, I don't get this.
05:55It could be on an ambulance or a fire engine or a police car.
05:59No, it's not out of balance.
06:00What's not out of balance?
06:01Dude, the tape.
06:02Go back and shoot another one.
06:03Another one, real quick.
06:06She's sorry.
06:06Don't do another.
06:06Sorry.
06:08Now, there's another sound.
06:10I don't think I'll make this.
06:11Know what it is?
06:13Sugar.
06:17That's right.
06:18It's a jet plane.
06:19You heard that one.
06:20Jet plane overhead.
06:23How are you guys doing?
06:25That's out of balance.
06:27There's another sound.
06:31Car horn.
06:35Lots of car horns.
06:41Probably a traffic jam, right?
06:44They're all honking at each other.
06:46You know, the city has a lot of sounds, and so does the country.
06:49And the mountains and the seashore, they have different sounds.
06:53Everywhere you listen, there are groovy sounds, if you want to listen for them.
06:56Now, my old friend Kermit the Frog has a thought or two on the subject of listening.
07:02Let's listen to him.
07:03Hello, there.
07:04My name is Kermit the Frog, and today I'm here to talk to you about groovy things that
07:09you can hear with your ears.
07:11Hey, there, Frog.
07:14And you, I suppose, are planning to louse me up, huh?
07:19Listen, are you going to behave yourself?
07:21Sure, Frog.
07:22Okay.
07:23Okay.
07:24Now.
07:24Ow.
07:26Oh, go ahead.
07:28Okay.
07:28Okay.
07:29Now, today we're going to talk about sounds.
07:32What?
07:33Sounds.
07:34Oh.
07:35All right.
07:36Okay, sounds.
07:37Now, that's why I brought my radio along here.
07:39Oh.
07:41And now, first of all, I'm going to turn my radio on very softly.
07:45Hear that music?
07:47Yeah.
07:47Isn't that nice?
07:48That music is playing very softly, you know?
07:51You can hear it, but you wouldn't bother anyone in the next room, you know?
07:55On the other hand, you can play a radio very loudly.
07:59Now, what's this?
08:01Yeah.
08:02See, that's loud.
08:03Now, this radio is very loud, and it's not such a good idea to play a radio loud
08:09because you might bother someone, you know?
08:11And therefore, we turn the radio down, like that.
08:15Now, that's the difference between soft and loud.
08:18Soft is nice and quiet, like this, and, uh...
08:22Yeah!
08:22Go, Frog!
08:25Loud is when it hurts the ears, like that.
08:27So we turn it down.
08:30Now then, uh, we can, uh, talk about, uh...
08:37Hey, you!
08:38If you shouldn't play the radio that loud, you might wake somebody up!
08:41I can't hear ya!
08:42I said you might wake somebody up!
08:44What?
08:46He said you might wake somebody up!
08:51But that ends my lecture for today.
08:53What?
08:58Why?
09:01Yo-yo.
09:05Hmm.
09:09Heh, heh, heh.
09:12Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
09:16Why?
09:18You know, why is a handy letter.
09:21It's the first letter in words like, um, yo-yo, yippee, uh, yarn,
09:28young, yawn, year, and yellow submarine.
09:37In the town where I was born
09:41Lived a man who sailed the sea
09:45And he told us of his life
09:49In the land of submarines
09:52So we sailed up to the sun
09:56Yes, we did.
09:57Till we found the sea of green
10:00And we lived beneath the waves
10:05In our yellow submarine
10:08We all lived in the yellow submarine
10:13Yellow submarine
10:15Yellow submarine
10:16Yellow submarine
10:17We all lived in the yellow submarine
10:20Yellow submarine
10:23Yellow submarine

10:28Many more of them live next door
10:32And the band begins to play
10:35Hit it, guys!
10:36Oh, yeah, hold'em
10:39Woo!
10:41Oh, yeah, hold'em
10:41We all lived in the yellow submarine
10:44Gallus submarine

10:58Wait!
11:00More points again
11:01Woo, whoa!
11:07As we live, as we live, a life will lead, every one of us, has all we need, sky and
11:16moon, and sea of green, in a yellow submarine.
11:22We all live in the yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine.
11:31We all live in the yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine.
11:39Woohoo!
11:40And now, let's get on with chapter two of The Boy, The Girl.
11:52And the Jelly Beans.
12:00And now, The Story of The Boy and The Girl and The Jelly Beans, chapter two.
12:11Yippa-doop-a-doop-doop, scoop-a-doop-a-doop.
12:15Well, I lost my jelly beans, but that is okay, because I'm not sad anymore.
12:19There is no reason to be sad, because I am cool.
12:23I am confident.
12:25Nothing can bother me, because I am cool.
12:29Oh, you scared me, and I am afraid.
12:34Oh, I am so scared.
12:36I am so frightened.
12:39Yes?
12:39Oh, I am afraid.
12:41Oh.
12:42Well, listen there, girl with the jelly beans.
12:45How are you?
12:46Oh, Emma.
12:47Yes.
12:47Oh, can't you see I'm afraid?
12:48That's how I am.
12:50I'm scared.
12:51Can't you see me...
12:53...shirking?
12:54Yes.
12:55Well, listen.
12:55Listen, I am not afraid.
12:57I am confident.
12:58I am cool.
13:00Perhaps I can help you.
13:01What is wrong?
13:02What's wrong?
13:03Yes.
13:04A great big monster was bothering me.
13:08That's what's wrong.
13:09A great big monster?
13:11Yes.
13:11Well, listen, that's okay.
13:14That's okay, because I am not afraid of monsters.
13:18Did you ever have a great big monster bothering you?
13:21Well, no, but...
13:22Well, then you don't know how I feel.
13:24Oh, the only way you could know how I feel is if you'd ever had a great big monster bothering
13:30you.
13:30Well, listen, if he comes around, see, I'll try to help you out.
13:35Oh, thank.
13:35That's very nice of you.
13:39Oh.
13:41Oh, that's so nice of you.
13:43Yes.
13:44And I, for that, am going to give you your jelly beans back.
13:49Oh, gee.
13:49There.
13:50Well, that's very nice of you, little girl with the jelly beans.
13:54I feel much better now.
13:56I'm not afraid at all.
13:58Well, good.
13:59I feel confident now.
14:02Like there's nothing to worry about.
14:04Well, that's good, because there is nothing to worry about.
14:07I mean, be just like me, because I am never afraid.
14:11You know, I don't have a care or a worry in the world.
14:20Well, actually, I'm afraid.
14:23I'm afraid that I'm afraid.
14:26Actually, I'm afraid that I'm scared.
14:31I think I'm afraid that I'm so scared that I'm shaking.
14:38I'm not afraid.
14:40I'm not afraid at all.
14:43You're not?
14:44No, I'm not.
14:45Do you want to know why?
14:47Yes, yes.
14:48Why?
14:48Why?
14:48Because that monster right behind you, by the way.
14:52Yes.
14:52He wanted my jelly beans.
14:55That's why he was bothering me.
14:56Well.
14:57But I don't have the jelly beans anymore.
14:59No, I do.
15:00So there's nothing to be afraid of.
15:01Uh.
15:02Goodbye.
15:07Oh, that, uh, that girl is, uh, she's, uh, too much, isn't she?
15:12Heh heh.
15:12Uh, listen, uh, you want some jelly beans?
15:14Yum, yum.
15:16Have some.
15:18Uh, yum, yum, yum.
15:20Help yourself there, you know, just, uh, enjoy them, you know.
15:23They're good for you.
15:24Heh heh.
15:24Yum.
15:26Yum.
15:31He ate them all.
15:33Well.
15:34I'm not afraid anymore.
15:37Mm-hmm.
15:41So, our hero is no longer afraid, but he still doesn't have any jelly beans.
15:47Stay tuned.
15:49In a few moments, we'll be back with the final part of our story.
15:58Okay, sports fans.
16:00We're here in the Sesame Bowl, and we've got Jumpin' Josh and Crafty Chris, and they're
16:05involved in their card-throwing game, right?
16:08Now, this is a near-far game.
16:09I'll show you what I mean.
16:11Go ahead, Josh.
16:12Yours first.
16:13Here's the first.
16:15Wow.

16:16Okay, Chris, go ahead.
16:19Nice.
16:20Now, hold tight.
16:21Let me show you what's happened here.
16:23Chris's card is nearer to the wall than Josh's card is.
16:29His card is farther away.
16:31So, that means you're the winner, right, Chris?
16:33Yeah.
16:34Okay, come on.
16:34Pick them up.
16:35Bring them over here.
16:37Get your trophy a little later on.

20:36The Boy, The Girl, and the Jelly Beans
20:46The Story of The Boy, and the Girl, and the Jelly Beans
20:51Chapter 3
20:57Boy, am I mad
20:58I am really angry
20:59I mean, I've lost my jelly beans twice in one day
21:02You know, if you lose your jelly beans once, it makes you sad
21:04But if you lose your jelly beans twice, it really makes you mad
21:07And all I have left is my little jelly bean bag with no jelly beans in it
21:11And I am really mad
21:13Boy, am I mad?
21:15I am so angry I can scream
21:17I am in a rotten mood
21:18I am mad
21:21Oh, hello there, little girl
21:22How are you?
21:23I am mad
21:24So am I
21:25I bet I'm madder than you are
21:26Ha!
21:26You don't know what mad is until you're as mad as I am right now
21:30Oh, yeah?
21:31Well, what are you mad about?
21:33I found my jelly beans
21:34Hmm?
21:35Yeah, I thought I lost them, but I left them right here, and I found them
21:39That's why you're mad?
21:41Boy, that's nothing to be mad about
21:43That's not why I'm mad
21:45I'm mad because
21:46Now, listen to this
21:47Okay
21:48I am mad
21:49Because I found my jelly beans, and I don't have anything to put them in
21:52So I can't take them home, and I can't eat them because it's dinner time soon
21:55So I'll just have to stand here forever looking at them
21:57Because I don't have a jelly bean bag to put them in
22:00And that's why I'm mad
22:03Wow, let me tell you that that is nothing
22:07Now, I'll tell you what I'm mad about
22:09Now, see, I have my little jelly bean bag here, and it's empty
22:13Because I've lost my jelly beans twice today, and I'll never find them because a monster ate them
22:17And all I have left is an empty jelly bean bag, and that's why I'm mad
22:21Ha! That is nothing to be...
22:27You...
22:29Have a jelly bean bag?
22:31Oh, yes, I do
22:32What difference does...
22:36You...
22:37You have jelly beans
22:39Uh-huh
22:41I do
22:42Well, uh, I have a, uh, bag to put them in
22:49I'm not mad anymore
22:51I'm not either
22:52Would, would, would you like to come to my house for dinner?
22:58What'll we have for dessert?
23:01Jelly beans!
23:02Oh, that's cream in the bag
23:05Okay, fine
23:05Okay, fine
23:06I'm so happy
23:07And so, with jelly beans for all, the story of the boy and the girl and the jelly beans ends
23:16happily
23:23This is the sort of work women often do
23:25Cooking and cleaning the home and sewing
23:27And if the women have children, well, as you know, they spend a lot of time taking care of their
23:33children
23:33All mothers do, even this one
23:56They, they're biscuits
23:58It's a fancy
23:58Well, what a dreadful consulting
24:01There, the point of hunting
24:01Well, we need to move to
24:05And youゲars
24:05You shouldn't be able to
24:05Orأulebone
24:05Of Personen
24:05Things
24:05And you are like
24:05Of Brandon
24:05of Adam
24:05Things
24:05As
24:38Then when the work is done, kids come home from school, father comes home from work, and the whole family
24:44can relax and have fun together.
26:13That's how some families live.
26:15Sometimes, though, the mother has to work, too, just like the father, and then everyone in the family has to
26:21pitch in and help out with a lot of the work.
26:22You know, I know one boy who, when he's not in school, he goes to work with his father, and
26:28he helps him.
26:29Do you know where his father works?
26:30On a boat?
26:31That's where.
26:57The net drags in the water.
27:03It catches all the fish.
27:07My brother steers the boat.
27:12It's hard work.
27:24When the net is full of fish, the machine drags it in.
27:55The net drags in the water.
28:08The machine lifts it up.
28:29The captain pulls it open. The fish spill out all over.
28:56Baby sharks that don't have any teeth get thrown back in the water.
29:23But all the fish that we can eat are put in the baskets.
29:29The man put the baskets into the hole that is down below.
29:36Where there is ice that keeps the fish cold until we can get them to market.
29:43When I grow up, I want to be a fisherman like my daddy.
29:47I want to be a fisherman.
30:17You've got four boxes over there.
30:19Look over there.
30:20Four boxes.
30:21One, two, three, four.
30:23Three big boxes.
30:24One little box.
30:27Here's the way we play the game.
30:28You take these objects, these four objects, and you make them fit into those four boxes.
30:36Okay?
30:37You're on your own.
30:38All right.
30:39Well, let's see.
30:40Okay.
30:40I'll start over here maybe.
30:42Okay.
30:43Now this box here is about that big.
30:44Right.
30:45And I need a ball about that big.
30:48That ball is about that big.
30:49It's about that big.
30:50See if it fits.
30:51Good.
30:53Hey, it fits.
30:55Oh, okay.
30:55Let's see.
30:56You're the next box here is about that big.
30:58Let's see.
30:59Alright, this is your second one.
31:01There.
31:01Right.
31:02See if it fits.
31:07Two for two?
31:08I don't know.
31:08Ernie.
31:09Yeah, right.
31:10Okay.
31:10Okay.
31:10You're great.
31:11Okay.
31:11You're great.
31:11You're great.
31:11You're great, Ernie.
31:11Let's see, your next box is about that big.
31:13And we want a ball about.
31:14All right.
31:15This is going to be your third one.
31:16This ball here looks about like it would...
31:18Right.
31:18Try it.
31:22That is great, Ernie, that's three.
31:24Yeah, yeah, okay, let's see.
31:25The last box is about that big.
31:28All right, try this one.
31:28This is your last one.
31:29The balloon, the balloon is too big, Gordon.
31:32Uh, well, you tried it.
31:33That balloon here, this balloon is never going to fit into that box.
31:37Ernie, you're not thinking.
31:38You're not thinking, Ernie.
31:39If I push her, it all squeezes out all over the edges there.
31:42Ernie, Ernie, you've got to think of a way to get that balloon into that box.
31:45He's not going to do it.
31:46Not going to do it?
31:47I give up, Gordon.
31:48All right, I'll show you.
31:51Very simple, Ernie.
31:52Ernie, what you do is you take the air out of the balloon.
31:57You see?
31:58Yeah.
31:58Okay, now the balloon's small because there's no air in it.
32:01Put the balloon in the box.
32:03Now it fits.
32:04Hey, that's great.
32:05That's great.
32:06Hey, listen, Gordon, would you do me a favor?
32:08Sure, what do you want?
32:08Would you blow that balloon back up again?
32:10Why?
32:10And I'll put those balls back out here again,
32:12and then somebody else will come along, and I'll ask them to do it,
32:15and then when they can't figure it out, then I'll tell them how.
32:17Oh, now that you know the trick, you're going to pull it on someone else.
32:20Yeah, yeah.
32:20Okay, I'll do it for you.
32:21Okay.
32:21Here we go.
32:22Put the balls back.
32:23I'll blow the balloon out.
32:23Okay, I'll put the balls back.
32:39You got the balls there, Ernie?
32:41The balls are ready.
32:41Okay.
32:42Here's your balloon.
32:43The balloon's ready?
32:43You're all set.
32:44I'll see you later.
32:45Good.
32:45Thank you, Gordon.
32:46You're welcome.
32:48Let's see.
32:48I got three balls, one balloon, and four boxes, and then...
32:51Oh, hey, listen, you.
32:53Hey, come here.
32:53Come here.
32:54Look at here.
32:55Look at here.
32:55I got three balls.
32:56I got one balloon.
32:57I got four boxes.
32:58Now, see if you can put the balls into the boxes and the balloon into the box,
33:01and put all the things into the boxes.
33:02Can you do that?
33:04All right.
33:04I'll see you.
33:08One.
33:08That's one?
33:10All right.
33:12Two.
33:14He does it pretty fast.
33:15Three.
33:17Yeah, but now, now what are you going to do?
33:20You've got a great big balloon.
33:21You've got a little bitty box.
33:23How are you going to get that great big balloon into that little bitty box, huh?
33:26You give up?
33:29All right.
33:33Four.
33:36Bye-bye.
33:41I never did like him anyhow.
33:49Shall we play the game?
33:51Oh, hey, you're just in time to join Christopher and Cheryl and Brynn and myself in a little game.
33:56We were talking about things that are far, far away, like the sun and the moon and the stars and
34:02all those things,
34:03and things that are near, like our shoes and our knees and the sidewalk.
34:09Now, I've got some questions.
34:10See if you can get them with us.
34:11Now, which is farther from your nose, your elbows or your toes?
34:19Your toes.
34:20Toes.
34:21Your toes are definitely farther from your nose than your elbows, right?
34:25Good.
34:26Here's another one.
34:27Which is farther from your eye?
34:30The ground?
34:31Well, here's the ground, right?
34:32Or the sky?
34:33The sky.
34:34The sky is farther away, right?
34:36Good.
34:37Let's see if I can think of another one.
34:40Which is farther from your knee?
34:43The ocean or me?
34:46Your ocean.
34:47The ocean is much farther away than my knee, right?
34:50Because that's far, far away from Sesame Street.
34:53One more.
34:55Which is farther from your head?
34:57Sesame Street or your bed?
35:00Sesame Street.
35:01No, not right now.
35:03Your bed is farther away.
35:05Yeah.
35:05Because we're right on Sesame Street, so Sesame Street is very near your head now.
35:09Usually, your head is near the bed, right?
35:11Right.
35:12Good.
35:12Let's turn them around now.
35:13Now, we know all about things that are far, far away, right?
35:17Now, what's the opposite of far?
35:18Near.
35:19Near.
35:19Near.
35:20Right, Chris.
35:20Okay, which is nearer to my lips?
35:26My big toes or my hips?
35:29Your hips.
35:30Right?
35:31Do you agree?
35:32Right.
35:34Okay.
35:35Which is nearer to my hair?
35:38The street sign over there or your chair?
35:43My chair.
35:44Your chair is much closer, right?
35:45Because the street sign is way, way over there.
35:49Hey, do you hear something?
35:51Yeah.
35:52I think it's that skywriter again.
35:55Anybody see him?
35:58Where is he today?
35:59Hey, there he is.
36:01I see him.
36:03I wonder, I wonder what he's writing for us today.
36:06He's very good at writing, writing all the letters, you know.
36:10It might be an E, or it could be an I, or what else?
36:16It's certainly not anything curved like a, like an O.
36:19It doesn't have any curvy lines or a C.
36:21It's a, it's an L.
36:24Hey, that's, that's a big L, isn't it?
36:27Did you know that that, speaking about things far away,
36:29did you know that that airplane was almost two miles high when he wrote that?
36:33He was.
36:35Oh, and also, here is a very important message from the letter L.
36:48Hey, well, I guess lunchbox certainly is an L word, right?
36:59Because, hey, I hear that skywriter again.
37:05Does anybody see him?
37:07Where?
37:08Yeah, there he is.
37:11He's writing something else for us.
37:14What?
37:15I don't know.
37:16An I?
37:17It could be an I.
37:19Oh, it's getting, it's getting a nice curved line along the bottom.
37:24It's not an X or anything like that, is it?
37:26Because it's got a curved line on it.
37:28It could be a U.
37:30Yeah, just like a.
37:33Hey, it is a U.
37:40A salute to the letter U.
37:46Useful for words beginning with U.
37:49Little words such as use, big words such as university.
37:55And in between words such as ukulele.
38:02Without the letter U, there would be no universe or uranium.
38:10Without the letter U, units would be units.
38:15Policemen would have no uniforms and nothing would be useful.
38:22For instance, whoever heard of an I.
38:26Oh, so here's to you, you.
38:29You've earned your place in the alphabet.
38:33And so do you, you.
38:35For your unique, universal usability, we say thank you, you.
38:43Anybody want to buy a used U?
38:46Would you like to buy a used U?
38:49No.
38:50Hey, you know, that's two letters in two minutes for that skywriter.
38:54He's really going crazy today.
38:55He hardly ever writes two letters in the same day.
38:58Do you know that?
38:58No.
38:59If he writes all the letters, what is that called?
39:05The alphabet.
39:06Is that right?
39:07Yeah.
39:08Is that what all the letters are called?
39:09Yeah.
39:10The alphabet, right?
39:11All together they're called alphabet.
39:13Right.
39:16Yeah.
39:17Yeah.
39:18Yeah.
39:19Yeah.
39:20Boys and girls, have you met?
39:2426 letters for the alphabet.
39:26You got to learn them before you can read right or spare.
39:29You might become a teacher, we can never, never tell.
39:32Learn said you were.
39:34Yes, sir.
39:34I hear so much further.
39:36They go like this.
39:38Come on now.
39:38A, B, C, D, E, F, T, H, I, J, K, L, F, N, O, P, Q, R, S, D.
39:46A, B, U, P, U, P, W, X, Y, Z.
39:49We're going to do it again and then this time.
39:53We are going to make them rhyme.
39:56A, B, C, D, E, F, T.
39:59H, I, J, K, L, F, N, O, P.
40:02U, R, S, D.
40:04U, P, W, X, Y, Z.
40:31Boys and girls, if you get in doubt, don't pout.
40:35You better watch out, learn your ABCs a little better.
40:40You got to know every letter.
40:43A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, F, N, O, P, U, R, S, D.
40:57U, P, W, X, Y, Z.
41:02Those are the ABCs.
41:05Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
41:07Those are, those are, those are the ABCs.
41:11Those are the ABCs.
41:17Hi, Bren and I are in the midst of the game.
41:20What happened before this scene?
41:25And we have here a hat on a monkey
41:30and this woman running
41:33and this man from the zoo running
41:36and this door opened.
41:39Now, Bren, can you tell me what happened
41:40right before this scene?
41:43Well, before that scene
41:47the lady had the hat
41:49and the door was locked
41:52and then the monkey got the key, I guess
41:56and unlocked the lock
41:58and got the hat.
42:02Yeah, right, right.
42:04And it's possible also the door was jarred open too, huh?
42:07Yeah.
42:08And she went after this man from the zoo to help her, huh?
42:12Yeah.
42:13So you have to get the hat
42:15and the monkey back into the cage, right?
42:18Okay.
42:19Here's the next one.
42:20Here we have a horse going down the street.
42:23We have the policeman chasing after it.
42:26And we have this man who
42:28I think he is a horse rider.
42:31Now, what happened right before this?
42:33Well, I think the horse rider
42:36was on the horse
42:37and he got kicked off.
42:42Who kicked him off?
42:43The horse.
42:44I see.
42:45And then he started galloping down the street
42:49and then he got a policeman.
42:52The policeman and the rider
42:55are now running after him.
42:57Right, right.
42:58A horse loose by itself
42:59can be dangerous, can't it?
43:01Yes.
43:02Right.
43:02All right.
43:03We're on the next one.
43:04We have a cat
43:05sitting on top of a couch.
43:07We have a lot of paper here
43:09that's strewn about.
43:12And have this young girl come in
43:15putting up her hand.
43:18Now, what happened just before that?
43:20I think there were a pile of newspapers
43:24and then the cat jumped on it
43:26and then made them scatter all around.
43:30Then when the girl came home,
43:33I guess she was at school somewhere,
43:35she saw that there were newspapers
43:38all on the floor.
43:40And the cat looked so innocent.
43:44I like that.
43:45I think you're right.
43:46100% right.
43:47That's an innocent cat
43:48trying to be innocent.
43:49Like it didn't do anything.
43:50They know, don't they?
43:52All right.
43:53Next one.
43:54Well, here's a barn,
43:55big barn in the back
43:56in a silo
43:57in a wooden fence.
43:59Here's a deep hole
44:01in the earth
44:02and there are flowers
44:04and that's a pig.
44:05Now what went on
44:06right before that?
44:08Well,
44:11the flower,
44:12he wouldn't be,
44:13he wasn't stepping on the flowers.
44:16He wasn't?
44:17And he wasn't,
44:18and he didn't pull one down.
44:21What was he doing?
44:23He's tearing the flowers off the ground.
44:27Oh,
44:27how'd he get there?
44:28Take them out.
44:32He might have been born there
44:33or he might have been bought.
44:36Born or bought?
44:38What's this big hole here about?
44:40I think it's a mud hole.
44:44A mud hole?
44:45Yeah, for...
44:46Well, why the fence
44:47and the barn
44:48and the silo?
44:49Well, the silo's
44:51to keep the pig.
44:53Yes.
44:54And the barn's
44:55to keep some other animals.
44:56Yes.
44:57So maybe the pig
44:58was there
44:58with the other animals.
44:59Yeah.
45:00And it came in the area
45:01where the garden is.
45:03Yeah.
45:03And through the hole,
45:04right?
45:04Right.
45:05All right.
45:06Okay.
45:07Let's...
45:08Now, I want to show you
45:09a very interesting one.
45:13Here we are.
45:15This is a frame of doorway.
45:18And it's broken
45:19and cracked
45:22into pieces,
45:23these holes.
45:24Did you make it?
45:25Now, let me tell you
45:26what went on here.
45:28Well, better still,
45:30I'll show you
45:32what went on.
45:32All right?
45:33Okay.
45:33Good.
45:35Hey, Jim.
45:37Hello, buddy.
45:38Guess what I got.
45:39What do you have?
45:40I got another ironing wood.
45:41I think this one
45:42is better than the old one.
45:43Good boy.
45:45That's wonderful.
45:46Bring it in.
45:49Well, bring it in.
45:53Well, Jim,
45:54we're in trouble.
45:55It's too big
45:55to get through the door.
45:56I tried to get it
45:57through the door
45:58and this end
45:58hit that side of the door
45:59and this end
46:00hit that side of the door.
46:02What are we going to do?
46:03How are we going to
46:04get it into the room?
46:05You just give it to me.
46:06You can't do anything right.
46:08I bet you can do it, Jim.
46:09Of course I can do it.
46:10Come on, Jim.
46:11What a second.
46:12Just walk in the room
46:13with the ironing board.
46:19You're right.
46:20It's too big.
46:22What are we going to do, Jim?
46:24Wait a minute.
46:25I got it.
46:26You got it.
46:27The ironing board
46:28is too big
46:29to get through the door,
46:30right?
46:30That's right.
46:31So what we'll do,
46:32we'll cut the ironing board
46:34in half
46:35and then we'll just bring
46:36the two halves
46:36through the door.
46:40That's good.
46:40That'll do it.
46:41Okay.
46:42Get me a saw.
46:45Okay.
46:46Now you hold the board.
46:47Okay.
46:48I'll hold the board, Jim.
46:49Okay.
46:49And you do the sawing,
46:51okay?
46:51Okay.
46:52Watch out for your fingers,
46:53Bob.
46:53Watch out for fingers
46:54when sawing is done.
46:56Right through.
46:57Wow.
46:58You can really saw, Jim.
47:00Two halves.
47:02Watch out for your fingers.
47:09And we're ready to go.
47:10You did it, Jim.
47:11All right, then.
47:12Okay.
47:13Okay.
47:14Now you'll see
47:14how easy it is.
47:15Come on, Jim.
47:16You ready?
47:17Okay.
47:17Watch this.
47:25Hey, Jim.
47:26Now let's take
47:27this thing out now.
47:28The ironing board
47:30was too big
47:30and we made it smaller
47:34but it wasn't
47:35small enough.
47:36So let's make
47:37the doorway bigger.
47:39Okay?
47:40Okay.
47:40Oh!
47:51Okay, Jim.
47:52Come on.
47:52I think we got it now.
47:54Come on.
47:54Step up.
47:55Try it.
47:55Well, I don't know.
47:56Yeah.
47:57Come on, Jim.
47:58Think that'll fit?
48:00It's gonna work, Jim.
48:01For once in your life
48:02you had a good idea.
48:04Thank you, Jim.
48:04Thanks a lot.
48:04Now we'll just bring it
48:05right into the room.
48:06Yeah.
48:06You take the heavy end.
48:08Yeah.
48:08I'll take the light end.
48:09Huh?
48:10And we'll just walk
48:11right into the room.
48:12Buddy and Jimmy together.
48:14Right.
48:14Walk right through the room.
48:15Right.
48:15You ready?
48:16Let's go.
48:17Let's go.
48:25That wasn't such a good idea
48:27after all.
48:29I don't know, Jim.
48:30We...
48:30The honey growl was too big.
48:33It only made it smaller.
48:34It was still too big.
48:37So then I took the big hammer
48:39and I made the...
48:41the door...
48:45The doorway...
48:46I made the doorway bigger.
48:48Yeah, Jim.
48:50Hey, Jim.
48:51Come here.
48:52What is it?
48:52I think we got it this time.
48:53Stand in the middle, see?
48:55Yeah.
48:55Stand in the middle.
48:57Hold on.
48:58Nobody over here.
48:59No Jimmy over here.
49:00And it's gonna work, Jim.
49:02You think this will work?
49:03What do you think?
49:03I don't know.
49:05Okay.
49:05Here we go, Jim.
49:06Okay.
49:08Hang on, Jim.
49:09Now, what do you think?
49:10Be careful.
49:11Here we go, Jim.
49:12It's gonna work.
49:13We're gonna make it?
49:13It's gonna...
49:14Oh!
49:16Ha, ha!
49:17I told you I'd get it into the room.
49:19You did it, Jim.
49:20Of course I did it.
49:22But...
49:24I...
49:27You messed up the door, Jim.
49:28Oh, don't worry about the door.
49:30Now, we're gonna need those holes
49:32when we take our O-lining board out.
49:43One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
49:50One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
49:53Five.
49:55Five.
49:59Five.
50:03Five.
50:18One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
50:31One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
50:33Seven, eight, nine, ten, nine, ten.
50:41I took a shower so I wouldn't be dirty.
50:48You can clean almost anything, almost everything.
50:59My sister brushes her teeth.
51:10Animals clean themselves.
51:31Some animals don't have to take a bath because they're in the water all the time.
51:47When a car gets dirty, it goes to the car wash.
52:04Where you live has to be cleaned too.
52:07By sleeping, and vacuuming, and dusting, and dishes get washed in the sink, and clothes in the washing machine.
52:27Driveways get clean when it snows, and streets when they get dirty.
52:41And books.
52:58You can clean almost anything.
53:13I'm making a scarf for Gordon.
53:16It's gonna be one of those real long, long ones, you know, that you wrap around a lot.
53:20And it's gonna be really good and warm.
53:23I'm not very far, though.
53:24This is just the beginning.
53:27Gee, you know, everything has a beginning.
53:31It grows into something big from the beginning.
53:37This is one big, tough bird.
53:40He's a rooster.
53:41And every other chicken in the yard does what he says.
53:46But once the rooster was small.
53:49So small he lived in an egg.
53:52The way all chickens do.
53:54At the beginning.
54:18Every city, every town was once a grassy field or a forest.
54:23But then, there was a beginning.
54:26Someone decided to build.
54:28And one block went on top of another block.
54:32And another.
54:34And another.
55:03A lake of water stretches on and on.
55:08But way back at the start, the beginning.
55:11And finally, there was the first drop.
55:13Which joined other drops.
55:15And splashed and dashed.
55:18Wider and stronger.
55:20And became a stream.
55:23And then a river.
55:25And finally, held in by the hills and the land.
55:28And it became a lake.
55:37And the cup which holds your milk also had a beginning.
55:42You'd say it was nothing more than a mud ball.
55:45And be right.
55:47But then someone made it grow.
55:50And take shape.
56:06A happy birthday cake didn't always look so good.
56:12Once, it looked pretty muddy itself.
56:23But into the oven.
56:26On with the icing.
56:30Light up the candles.
56:32And there it is.
56:34And whoops.
56:35And whoops.
56:36There it goes.
56:43A tall strong tree was once so small.
56:47A boy could step on it by mistake.
56:51Or he could hold it in his hand.
56:54But give it some good earth.
56:56And some sun.
56:58And some rain.
57:00And some time.
57:01Lots of time.
57:03Lots of time.
57:05And there it stands.
57:07Ready for climbing.
57:10Or for making shade.
57:13And for making the world green and lovely for years and years.
57:27But the best beginning of them all.
57:31Is a baby.
57:33Is a baby.
57:35Is a baby.
57:36Who knows what the baby will be.
57:41The whole world waits and watches.
57:44And loves the baby.
57:47For a baby.
57:49Is a baby.
57:50Is the best beginning.
57:51Is the best beginning.
57:52Of them all.
58:03To be the highest.
58:05Is the best beginning of all.
58:06Of them all.
58:08Is the best beginning of all.
58:09To be the best beginning of all.
58:13To be the best beginning of all.
58:15Get pretty.
58:17Well, it's time to say goodbye again today.
58:20I don't know where the time goes,
58:21but you're going to come back and see us again here on Sesame Street, aren't you?
58:24Good, because we're always here.
58:26You know where to find us.
58:27All right. Bye now.
