00:33I need a sweep it up, let the way.
00:40On my way to where everything is free.
00:45And you know we have to get out of yet to set the street.

01:36What's going on out there?
01:39Out where?
01:39Um, I don't know.
01:42Well, let's go check it out, Chris.
01:43Come on.
01:44Yeah, yeah.
01:46Uh, excuse me.
01:48Hi there.
01:49Oh, hello.
01:50You must be my new neighbors.
01:52Neighbors?
01:53My name is Buck Ah.
01:55Professor Buck Ah.
01:57That means I'm a teacher.
01:58And today I am opening my brand new school right here.
02:01What kind of school is it?
02:03Oh, a very special kind of school.
02:08Introducing Professor Buck's School for Clucks.
02:15It's a chicken school, you see.
02:16Wow.
02:17Well, Elmo's never heard of a chicken school before.
02:20That's because this is the first of its kind.
02:22Now chickens can learn their one, two, threes and ABCs just like everyone else.
02:26Oh.
02:27Yes, but chickens don't go to school.
02:29Not yet they don't.
02:30But I'm a man with a dream to open a free-range chicken school right here on Sesame Street
02:36so there will be no chicken left behind.
02:39Yeah, but that sounds great, doesn't it, Chris?
02:43Oh, that's the school bell.
02:45That means my chicken school's about to begin.
02:46Yeah, but I don't think you're going to find chickens who are actually going to go to school.
02:55I guess I was wrong.
02:56Welcome, everyone, to Professor Buck's School for Clucks.
02:59Yeah, well, the chickens seem really excited to be here.
03:03Yes, well, Elmo, you would be too if you were cooped up all day inside of a, um, whatever it
03:08is chickens live in.
03:10Uh, chicken coop?
03:12Exactly, yes, of course, of course.
03:14All right, class, class, uh, uh, choose a desk and pull up a nest.
03:20Gee, Elmo would just need to go to chicken school too.
03:23Uh, Elmo, you already go to preschool.
03:26Uh, well, Elmo, maybe you could be in my class for one day just so that you see what it's
03:30like to learn like a chicken.
03:31Oh, really?
03:32Yeah, do you have a chicken costume by chance?
03:35Who doesn't?
03:37I don't.
03:39Ta-da!
03:40Chicken Elmo is ready for school.
03:43Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck.
03:45Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
03:46Excellent, Elmo.
03:47Come join the class.
03:48We're about to begin.
03:49Okay.
03:50Okay.
03:50Have fun, uh, Chicken Elmo.
03:52I'll be over here in Hooper's, okay?
03:55I'm still not sure how this chicken school thing is going to work, but, uh, whatever.
04:00Good morning, class.
04:01Good morning!
04:03My name is Professor Buck-Aw.
04:06Buck-Aw!
04:07That's right, Buck-Aw. Yes, very good.
04:10So, I wanted to start...
04:12Uh-huh, that's my name. You're correct. Very good.
04:15Okay, yes. Class, we've established who I am.
04:19All right, so let's move on.
04:21And if you'd please just take your...
04:23Why won't they stop?
04:25Um, actually, I don't think they're saying your name.
04:28I think they're just clucking.
04:30Oh.
04:32Yeah, that's conduit chickens do.
04:34Yes, of course. Clock.
04:36I knew that.
04:37Um, I am...
04:39The Professor Chicken Teacher.
04:42Uh, class...
04:43Class, it is time to begin school.
04:46So, please, listen.
04:49To me.
04:50Listen to me, class.
04:52Well, in Elmo's preschool,
04:53we learned a good way to get everybody to listen.
04:56You did?
04:57Uh-huh, yeah.
04:58By listening with your whole body.
05:01Uh-huh.
05:01I think you mean listening with your ear.
05:03Well, yes, it's true.
05:04We hear with our ears.
05:06But, like, listening...
05:07Like, really paying attention to someone.
05:09Well, it involves a lot more than that.
05:10Yeah, that's right.
05:11We even sang a song about it in preschool.
05:14Do you think you could sing that for us?
05:16It might help.
05:17Okay.
05:18Oh, come to the front of the class.
05:20Come on up, Elmo.
05:21Okay.
05:22Well, everybody, the song goes like this.
05:25How do we listen?
05:28Elmo knows, pal.
05:30With our whole bodies.
05:32Let Elmo show you how.
05:36Ears are hearing what you have to say.
05:39Eyes are watching what you do today.
05:41Mouth is closed and quiet, too.
05:44Body is calm and facing you.
05:47Join us, class.
05:49Ears are hearing what you have to say.
05:52Eyes are watching what you do today.
05:54Mouth is closed and quiet, too.
05:57Body is calm and facing you.
06:07It worked!
06:08Oh, wonderful, Elmo.
06:10Look, they're all listening with their whole bodies.
06:13Thank you, Elmo.
06:14Yeah, Elmo is happy to help.
06:17Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck.
06:19All right, class.
06:20Now that we're all listening with our whole bodies,
06:23let's begin our first lesson.
06:25Whom here knows how to say the alphabet?
06:29No, I can't understand any of them.
06:32That's because they're all talking at once.
06:34You've got to get them to raise their hand
06:35if they have something to say.
06:37Professor Bacow?
06:38Professor Bacow?
06:38Like that?
06:39Professor Bacow?
06:40Yes, Elmo.
06:40Elmo has another song from preschool.
06:43Yeah, it's all about raising your hand.
06:47Oh, how wonderful.
06:48Another strategy.
06:48Come up and share it with the class.
06:51OK, here we go.
06:52When you have something to say in school,
06:55don't shout it out.
06:56You have to follow the rule.
06:59Raise your hand when you want to talk.
07:01Lift it high.
07:02That's what you do.
07:04Come on there.
07:05Raise your hand when you want to talk.
07:07And wait for the teacher to call on you.
07:10Raise your hand when you want to talk.
07:13Lift it high.
07:14That's what you do.
07:16Raise your hand when you want to talk.
07:19And wait for the teacher to call on you.
07:22It's a wonderful song, but I wonder if we could change it
07:25a little bit for the chickens.
07:26Like how?
07:27Well, how about this?
07:28Raise your wing when you want to balk.
07:31Lift it high.
07:31Bawk, bawk.
07:32That's what you do.
07:34Bawk, bawk, bawk.
07:34Raise your wing when you want to balk.
07:36And wait for the teacher to call on you.
07:40Bawk, bawk, bawk.
07:40Raise your wing when you want to balk.
07:43Lift it high.
07:44Bawk, bawk.
07:44That's what you do.
07:46Bawk, bawk, bawk.
07:46Raise your wing when you want to balk.
07:49Bawk, bawk.
07:49And wait for the teacher to call on you.
07:53Yeah!
07:55Oh, wonderful.
07:56They're doing it.
07:57Hey, cool song, Elmo.
08:00All right, guys.
08:01It's snack time.
08:02I have crackers and skim milk.
08:08Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey, chickens.
08:11Back to your desk.
08:12Come on.
08:13Guys, help.
08:14Come on.
08:15Hey.
08:15Oh, I'm so sorry.
08:17What happened?
08:19Feathers everywhere.
08:20Yeah, it looked like a chicken stampede.
08:22Yeah, they all wanted their snack at the same time.
08:25Oh, teaching chickens is strenuous work.
08:28I don't know if I have the energy to go on.
08:30Well, listen, Buck, you just have to get them to stand in line and wait their turn.
08:34Oh, yeah.
08:35And how am I going to do that?
08:37Do you have another song?
08:38Uh-huh.
08:39Go for it.
08:41Okay, chickens, here's another song Elmo learned at preschool.
08:46Stand in line, keep it nice and straight.
08:51Stand in line, and you'll have to wait till it's your turn.
08:58It's what everyone must learn, so stand in line and you'll be doing great.
09:12Aha, the strategy worked.
09:30They stood in line.
09:31Thank you again for all of your help, Elmo.
09:33Ah, no problem.
09:35Okay, class.
09:36There have been many delays, but we can finally start the first lesson of learning the alphabet.
09:41So...
09:42Oh, no.
09:43That's the school bell.
09:44Already?
09:46Uh, I'm afraid school is over for today.
09:49Class dismissed.
09:56That was a really short school day.
09:58I can't believe this.
09:59I didn't teach them a single thing the whole day long.
10:01It seems like it was only a few minutes.
10:03Forget it.
10:04I'm closing down Professor Buck's school for clucks.
10:07Why?
10:08Because I didn't teach them anything.
10:10Yes, you did.
10:11They learned how to listen.
10:14Yeah, yeah.
10:15And they learned how to raise their hands.
10:18Or wings.
10:21And they learned how to stand in line and wait their turn.
10:25Now, those are really important things to learn for anybody who's going to school.
10:29Yeah.
10:29You guys are right.
10:30The chickens did learn.
10:32So, does this mean that Professor Buck's school for clucks will stay open?
10:38No.
10:39I'm going to reopen it as Professor Buck's and Professor Elmo's school for clucks.
10:46Oh, boy.
10:48Elmo can't wait for chicken school tomorrow.
10:50Buck up!
10:52Yes, Elmo?
10:52He wasn't saying your name.
10:53No, I know.
10:58You ready?
11:00Yeah.
11:01Yes.
11:01You ready?
11:02I'm ready, Elmo.
11:03Oh, hi.
11:04Elmo's friend Wendy is going to show us what the word strenuous means.
11:09I am?
11:10Uh-huh.
11:11Wait, I thought I was just going to tell that strenuous is when something is really
11:15hard work and you need a lot of energy to do it.
11:18Well, that's right.
11:19But Miss Wendy needs to show everybody strenuous.
11:23Oh, okay.
11:26Oh, you know what?
11:27What?
11:27Running.
11:28Oh.
11:30Running is hard work.
11:32Uh-huh.
11:33And you need a lot of energy to do it.
11:35Oh, yeah.
11:35Oh.
11:38That was strenuous.
11:39Ah, nice job, Miss Wendy.
11:41But, you know, Elmo's not sure everybody understands.
11:45What?
11:46Can Miss Wendy show something else that's strenuous?
11:49Um.
11:50Oh.
11:52Okay.
11:52Huh?
11:53Oh.
12:01Lifting this rock is very hard work.
12:05Oh.
12:06And it takes a lot of energy to do it.
12:08So it's strenuous.
12:11Very, very strenuous.
12:13Uh-huh.
12:14Uh-huh.
12:14Uh-huh.
12:16Uh-huh.
12:17Uh-huh.
12:17Uh-huh.
12:18Uh-huh.
12:18Wait, okay.
12:19Elmo thinks everybody gets it.
12:21Great.
12:21But, just to be sure, Miss Wendy should show strenuous one more time.
12:28Really?
12:29Just to be sure.
12:30All right.
12:31Okay.
12:32Okay.
12:33Oh.
12:35Right now, I'm playing tug-of-war against someone very strong.
12:41Uh-huh.
12:42Uh-huh.
12:42Ow!
12:43Woo!
12:44And it's hard work.
12:45Uh-huh.
12:46And it takes a lot of energy, so it's strenuous.
12:50Uh-huh.
12:51Uh-huh.
12:53Uh-huh.
12:54Uh-huh.
12:55Uh-huh.

22:02That's Peck!
22:02Nope!
22:03Gone again!
22:06Peck's right!
22:07We're all chickens!
22:08Okay!
22:09We better say the magic sneeze word so we're not chickens anymore!
22:13Huh?
22:15No, no, no!
22:15Don't worry, Peck!
22:17You could still be a chicken!
22:18Come on!
22:19Let's say the magic sneeze word!
22:22Gazunden schnipple!
22:23Oh!
22:24We're not chickens anymore!
22:25Hooray!
22:27Oh, yeah?
22:28Then why did you just lay an egg?
22:30Oh, oh, no!
22:32Why didn't it work?
22:33We said the magic sneeze word when Mrs. Sparklenose sneezed.
22:36We should have turned back!
22:37Maybe because Mrs. Sparklenose sneezed two times!
22:41And her nose lit up twice!
22:43So maybe we have to say it two times!
22:45Oh!
22:45Great idea!
22:46Come on!
22:47Let's try!
22:48Gazunden schniffel!
22:50Gazunden schniffel!
22:52Wahoo!
22:53It worked!
22:54Great job!
22:55Berries!
22:55Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
22:56Wing whack!
22:57Ooh!
22:58Wahoo!
23:01Uh-oh!
23:02Mrs. Sparklenose's nose is sparkling again!
23:04Let's count how many times it sparkles!
23:07One!
23:09Two!
23:10Three!
23:11She's gonna sneeze three times!
23:14He-choo!
23:16He-pew!
23:17He-pew!
23:18He-pew!
23:19Cheese!
23:20Oh, is somebody taking a picture?
23:22No!
23:23Weird cheese!
23:27Ooh!
23:28Ooh!
23:29Oh!
23:30I think Nibble wants to make us his afternoon snack!
23:33Oh!
23:33Oh!
23:33Quick!
23:34Say gazunden schniffel!
23:35Three times!
23:37Gazunden schniffel!
23:39Gazunden schniffel!
23:40Gazunden schniffel!
23:41Gazunden schniffel!
23:41Oh!
23:43Huh?
23:48We gotta get rid of these dust balls before they do any more damage!
23:52But how?
23:52Oh!
23:53We need help!
23:54Let's ask Spot!
23:56Oh!
23:56Spot!
23:59Spot!
24:00How do you get rid of fairy dust bunnies?
24:03Fetch Spot!
24:04Fetch!
24:05Spot!
24:06Fetch!
24:08Now where's the robot?
24:10Oh!
24:11Look!
24:11He's under the bed!
24:13He's under the bench!
24:15Oh!
24:15Look!
24:16Now he's under the camel!
24:17He's under the umbrella!
24:19The robot is under the dog!
24:24What does under have to do with our dust bunny problem?
24:28What?
24:28Twinkle think!
24:29Twinkle think!
24:31Twinkle think!
24:32Twinkle think!
24:33Twinkle think!
24:33Twinkle think!
24:34I got it!
24:35Ah!
24:36What?
24:37What?
24:37Fairy dust bunnies came from under the magic carpet!
24:41So we just have to get them back under!
24:44That makes total sense!
24:45Come on!
24:48This bunny's under!
24:56The bunnies are over the carpet!
24:58Ooh!
24:59We gotta try something else!
25:02Ooh!
25:02Ooh!
25:03Ooh!
25:03Come on Nibs!
25:04I can't even think about eating right now!
25:09Ooh!
25:12Ooh!
25:13Ooh!
25:15Ooh!
25:16Ooh!
25:16Ooh!
25:16Ooh!
25:16Ooh!
25:17Wait a minute!
25:19I think Niblet is telling us to use food to get the dust bunnies under the carpet!
25:24That is one smart gerbil corn!
25:26Ooh Peep!
25:27But what in the fairy world do fairy dust bunnies even eat?
25:31I don't know!
25:33What do regular bunnies eat?
25:35Carrots!
25:36Well, if regular bunnies eat carrots, then fairy dust bunnies must eat...
25:42Fairy dust carrots!
25:47Woohoo!
25:48It's working!
25:50Here, dust bunnies!
25:52The carrots are under here!
25:56The bunnies are under the carpet!
26:06The bunnies are under the carpet!
26:07Oh!
26:09Thank you, fairies!
26:10You did it!
26:13Now it's time to celebrate!
26:15No plug!
26:17Now it's time to clean up!
26:20Oh, man!
26:21See you, Aaron!
26:25Ahhhh!
26:29One!
26:30Two!
26:31Three!
26:32Four!
26:32Six!
26:33Seven!
26:34Eight!
26:35Nine!
26:35Ten!
26:37Ten!
26:39Eight!
26:39Seven!
26:41One, two, three, four, three, four.
26:56One little chick won.
26:59Ready for some fun.
27:08Two little chick, two.
27:11Looking for their crew.
27:19Three little chick, three.
27:23Jump and hop with glee.
27:31Four little chicks, four.
27:34Dancing on the floor.
27:40One, two, three, four.
27:50Four.
27:54One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen.
28:10He observes.
28:12He questions.
28:14He investigates.
28:16What does this button do?
28:18Super Grover 2.0.
28:21He shows up.
28:26At a school gym just hours before the big game,
28:30this cheer squad can't stop rah-rah rocking back and forth.
28:36We're the squad that's full of talent.
28:40Hear us cheer and watch us balance.
28:43Whoa!
28:44Whoa!
28:44Whoa!
28:47That happens every time.
28:49We always fall whenever we try that move.
28:53We need help.
28:54Isn't there anybody that can help us so we can balance and not fall over?
29:03Oh, never fear!
29:04Your hero is...
29:06Somewhere under this cape.
29:08Here!
29:10Um, are you a substitute or something?
29:13Nonsense!
29:14I am Super Grover 2.0!
29:17Now, what seems to be the problem?
29:19Every time we try to do our balancing cheer, like, we fall over!
29:22I just can't seem to balance them!
29:25So, the question is, how do you balance the pom-pomed poultry without falling over?
29:31Well, stand back while I rah-rah-sis-pum-pum-pum!
29:36Unleash my powers of observation!
29:40Hmm, I observe with my super eyes that you have two arms.
29:46One, two!
29:48Yes, I do!
29:51Just as I suspected.
29:53What?
29:54What?
29:54You clearly have a case of floppy arms!
29:58Yes, yes, that is when one arm is strong, like, well, an elephant, and the other, eh,
30:03not so much.
30:04Yep, that arm over there is clearly your strong arm.
30:08Hey!
30:09You know, now that you mention it, that arm does feel stronger!
30:13Now, I shall rah-rah-sis-pum-pah!
30:17Unleash the power of investigation!
30:20If I am correct, then, when all the chickadees jump to this side, your strong arm will hold
30:26all the weight and you shall be perfectly balanced.
30:28That is my hypothesis.
30:30Wow, Christopher, you're like amazing!
30:33Oh, it is what I do!
30:35Now, let us investigate and show me that chair!
30:39Everybody line up on this side only!
30:43Here we go!
30:45We're the squad that's full of talent!
30:48Hear us cheer and watch us balance!
30:52Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
30:55Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
31:00Maybe in order to have balance, we can't have all the weight on one side.
31:06We need to have an equal amount of weight on both sides!
31:10Or what if, in order to balance, we have an equal amount of weight on both sides?
31:17Great idea, Super Grover!
31:20I just said that.
31:21And by unleashing my powers of observation, I see there are one, two, three, four chickens!
31:30Yes, so if we just put half of the chickens on one side, one, two, and half on the other
31:36side, one, two, you will be perfectly balanced.
31:40I'm not really sure that's how it works.
31:42Nonsense!
31:43Two chickens on this side, two cute little chickens on this side.
31:45They must weigh the same!
31:47Okay!
31:49Everybody ready?
31:50Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
31:52I'm just going to stand over here if you do not mind.
31:55Okay!
31:57We're the squad that lots of talent! Hear us cheer and watch us balance!
32:03It worked!
32:05See?
32:06I was wrong!
32:08Sorry!
32:12I think if we want to balance by weight, I think we need some sort of tool to measure our
32:20weight.
32:20A tool, you say?
32:22Okay!
32:22Stand back!
32:23It is now time for me to...
32:26U-N-L-E-A-S-H!
32:28Unleash!
32:29The power of technology!
32:31Let me check my utility sock.
32:35A wedge of cheese?
32:37No.
32:38Pickle?
32:38That's for lunch later.
32:40This thing from that lawyer show!
32:44No, no, wait!
32:46What?
32:47That is a scale!
32:50Yes!
32:50Yes!
32:51Yes!
32:51Yes it is!
32:52Wait, what is a scale again?
32:54A scale is a tool to measure weight.
32:57When the two sides are perfectly balanced, it means there's an equal amount of weight on each side.
33:06I'm a large chicken, and I think I probably weigh more than the small chickens.
33:12So, I'll get on this side, and we'll find out how many small chickens weigh the same as me.
33:22One!
33:24Two!
33:27Three!
33:29Oh!
33:30Look!
33:31Three small chickens weigh the same as one large chicken!
33:36The scale is perfectly balanced!
33:40Now let's try the cheer!
33:42We're the squad that's full of talents!
33:45Hear us cheer and watch us balance!
33:49The other arm is full of talent!
33:50What?
33:51You're balanced!
33:53And so Super Grover learned that to stay balanced, it helps to have an equal amount of weight on
33:58both sides.
33:59Good cheer for Super Grover 2.0!
34:04Now I am a little off balance.
34:14Thank goodness for my super water wings!
34:21This rat is heavier than I thought!
34:24Someone's been living high on the hog!
34:26I told you not to eat so much roast beef!
34:36Let's go!
34:37What's up?
35:03All right, Quackers, follow me.
35:06Hey, we're going to take a walk on the bird walk.
35:09Whatever you say, Nucky Ducky.
35:11You're the boss.
35:12All right, you heard a movie.
35:15Waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle.
35:18Waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle,
35:20waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle.
35:31Hey, Nucky Ducky, look.
35:33Quack.
35:35Well, if it isn't Clucky Luciano.
35:39Well, if it ain't Nucky Ducky Thompson and your wingman,
35:43Mallard Capone.
35:44Quack.
35:47You want me to show him who's boss, Nucky Ducky?
35:50I'll handle this, Capone.
35:52Clear out, Clucky.
35:54This is our bird walk.
35:56And this is how we walk on our bird walk.
36:01Waddle, waddle, waddle, wap-waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle.
36:04Waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle.
36:08Get your beak out of here, Nucky.
36:10This is our bird walk.
36:11And this is how WE walk on OUR birdwalk.
36:35that's right now everyone stop take a breath and tell me what the problem is
36:45One at a time.
36:48Agent Van Cuckoo, this quack is trying to hop on my birdwalk.
36:56Oh, yeah, well, this quack is trying to waddle on my birdwalk.
37:00Well, if you ask me, you're all a bunch of flappers.
37:04So, why don't you try flapping together?
37:07But I want to waddle!
37:09And I want to hop!
37:10Waddle! Waddle! Waddle!
37:14So, just use your bird brains and make up a new walk.
37:20You know, for a cuckoo, he makes a lot of sense.
37:24So, start flapping!
37:36That's more like it.
37:37Uh, hey, can I flap, too?
37:40Sure!
37:43Waddle, waddle, hawk!
37:44Wap, whack, whack!
37:45Waddle, waddle, hawk!
37:47Wap, whack, whack, whack, wha-have-wha!
37:50Come on, everybody!
37:51Let's flap over to the beak-easy!
38:15That was amazing, Blake!
38:18You're the winner!
38:19That's right!
38:20You are the champion!
38:22You are the champion!
38:23It's over the musical!
38:24Elmo the musical!
38:27Let's get on with our show!
38:31Ready, Velvet?
38:32Ready, Elmo!
38:34Imagine a story!
38:36Imagine a song!
38:39That's how it's next!
38:41You'll never know!
38:43It's Elmo the musical!
38:45Elmo the musical!
38:48Let's get on with the show!
38:51Come on!
38:52Let's make up a musical!
38:54What do you have in mind, Elmo?
38:56Nothing yet, Velvet.
38:58Elmo has to think.
38:59What if...
39:00What if...
39:01What if Elmo was a bird?
39:06Yeah!
39:07Elmo bird!
39:08Oh, and today's story is...
39:10Bird the musical!
39:13That idea is top flight!
39:16Thank you, Velvet!
39:17Oh, and what if...
39:18What if you were a bird, too?
39:20Yeah!
39:21Just tweak and snap your wings!
39:23Like Elmo bird!
39:24Jump, vent, duck, duck, duck!
39:27Yeah!
39:27Come on birdie!
39:28Flap with Elmo bird!
39:31Flying high!
39:32Flying low!
39:34Flying is the way to go!
39:40Birdies!
39:41Birdies!
39:42Oh, Mama bird isコring us!
39:44We better fly home to the nest.
39:46COаемся!
39:47Flying high!
39:48Flying low, flying is the way to go.
39:55Whee!
39:59Oh, we're home, Mama Bird.
40:01Just in time. Can you please sit on the egg while I go to the supermarket? We're all out of
40:07worms.
40:08Oh, but Mama Bird, we want to fly.
40:11Oh, it won't take long, Elmo Bird. Just keep the egg warm and don't leave the nest.
40:17Okay, but hurry up, Mama Bird. Hurry!
40:21Hey, Elmo Bird, want to go bowling?
40:24Oh, Elmo Bird can't. Elmo Bird has to sit on the egg.
40:27Aw, too bad.
40:30Sitting on an egg is not fun to do. Elmo Bird wants to play, but he's got to sit on
40:35you.
40:36Hey, Elmo Bird, you want to play mini-golf?
40:38Mini-golf? That's Elmo's favorite. Oh, but Elmo has to sit on this egg. Bummer.
40:43Sitting on an egg, staying in the nest, Elmo Bird can't do, but Elmo Bird knows fast.
40:49Hey, Elmo, want to do a dance?
40:51Elmo Bird can't leave the nest.
40:53You don't have to. This is a dance you do in your nest.
40:56It's called the sitting on an egg dance.
40:59Really? How's it go?
41:03Sitting on an egg isn't such a chore. Just bob your birdie beak, then bob a little more.
41:10Bob it, birdie!
41:11Bob it, Bob it, Bob it, Bob it, Bob it, Bob it, Bob it, Bob it, Bob it!
41:15Sitting in your nest, give your egg a ride. No need to leave home, just rock from side to side.
41:22Rock it, birdie.
41:23Rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it,
41:28rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it, rock it!
41:28Oh, oh no!
41:30Elmo can't rock it.
41:31We have to find that egg now.
41:33Come on, birdie, let's fly.
41:35Come on birdie, it's this way.
41:38Let's find that egg.
41:40And the winner of the most unusual watermelon at the Cock-A-Doodle-Doo County Fair is,
41:48Oh! Cock-a-doodle-doo! It's green with purple speckles!
41:54Now that is the most unusual watermelon I have ever seen!
42:01Oh, sorry, Mr. Rooster, but that's not a watermelon.
42:05Of course it's a watermelon!
42:08Gather round, my feathered friends. You won't believe your eyes.
42:12Here's a watermelon that deserves to win the prize.
42:16But watermelons are big! Have you ever seen one so small?
42:20Nope! It's the most unusual watermelon of them all!
42:25The most unusual watermelon of them all!
42:28Watermelons are heavy, not as light as a ping pong ball!
42:32It's the most unusual watermelon of them all!
42:37The most unusual watermelon of them all!
42:40Do watermelons have shells?
42:42Well, not that I recall!
42:43It's the most unusual watermelon of them all!
42:49The most unusual watermelon of them all!
42:52But that isn't a watermelon, it's an egg!
42:55A cock-a-doodle-fly!
42:57An egg!
42:58An egg!
43:00An egg!
43:01But, Miss, here's the most unusual watermelon contest!
43:06Not the most unusual egg contest!
43:09I'm afraid this egg here is disqualified!
43:13You're out of here, little egg!
43:14No, no, no!
43:15Don't touch it!
43:16Oh, no!
43:17We're gonna go now!
43:18Oh, come on, birdie!
43:19Let's fly!
43:22Hey!
43:25Keep snapping, birdies!
43:27Keep snapping, birdies!
43:28And there you are, madam, your number five hat!
43:33One, two, three, four, five eggs!
43:37One, two, three, four, five feathers!
43:41And one, two, three, four, five bows!
43:47Just put it on my bill!
43:49Oh!
43:50I think it looks much better on your head!
43:53Let's see, for yourselves!
43:56I look amazing!
43:59I know!
44:03That's Elmo's egg!
44:05Excuse Elmo!
44:06I feel ducky!
44:09Oh, so plucky!
44:11In my wonderful number five hat!
44:16It's got five eggs!
44:18Any duck would want a hat like that!
44:24Quack, quack!
44:24Quack, quack!
44:25Excuse Elmo!
44:26Who's the lucky duck in that mirror there?
44:30Quack, quack, quack!
44:31Who could that exquisite owl be?
44:34Quack, quack, quack!
44:35One, two, three, four, five!
44:39One, two, three, four, five, four, five!
44:45Six!
44:46What do you mean, six?
44:48Well, Miss Duck has one, two, three, four, five, six eggs on it!
44:54And one of them is Elmo Bird!
44:57What?
44:57But this is a number five hat!
45:01Now, now, don't ruffle your feathers, madam.
45:04I can fix your hat.
45:07Oh, well, how?
45:08With subtraction!
45:10I will simply take away the extra egg.
45:16Six eggs.
45:17Take away one egg.
45:19Leaves one, two, three, four, five eggs!
45:27Oh, oh, Elmo Bird's egg!
45:30Come on, Birdie!
45:32Help Elmo Bird find the egg!
45:40I got it!
45:41I got it!
45:43I got it!
45:43Ha-ha!
45:45Oh, sorry, Mr. Pitcher!
45:48That's Elmo Bird's egg!
45:50No, this is a baseball!
45:53Can't you see we're in the middle of a game?
45:55Play ball, play ball, no time for chitter chat!
45:58Play ball, play ball, the batter's up and fat!
46:01But, but, but, but baseball's a white.
46:05That egg is green with purple speckles.
46:08Now, who cares about the speckles?
46:10Oh, as long as we can play with it.
46:13Play ball, that's what the game's about.
46:16Play ball, that's we're always better out.
46:21Here I go!
46:23Oh, Elmo Bird can't look!
46:25Ha-ha!
46:28Strike one!
46:32Here I go again!
46:34Oh, oh!
46:35Please, Mr. Pitcher!
46:36What?
46:37Don't throw the egg!
46:38Oh, how many times do I have to tell you?
46:41This is a ball, not an egg!
46:44But baseball's a round!
46:46What do you mean, round?
46:48Oh, I know!
46:54I think what Elmo Bird is trying to say is that this has more of an oval shape.
47:00Whereas a baseball has more of a round shape.
47:05Like this baseball.
47:09Oh!
47:10Yeah!
47:12Forget that!
47:14Our baseball!
47:17Sorry, little guy!
47:18Here's your oval shaped egg back!
47:21Oh, good.
47:21Catch!
47:22Oh, no!
47:24Where'd the egg go now?
47:26Oh, the frustration!
47:28Oh, the despair!
47:29Oh, how will you ever get your egg back?
47:32Well, first, Velvet has to open up!
47:35Elmo will never find the egg if Elmo can't see anything!
47:38Oh!
47:39Perhaps you have a point!
47:46Oh!
47:48The egg is back in the nest!
47:50Safe and sound!
47:53Oh!
47:54Oh, no!
47:55It's broken!
47:57What's Mama Bird gonna say?
48:01I'm home, Elmo Bird!
48:03And how's our little egg?
48:06Mama Bird?
48:07Hmm?
48:08Elmo Bird is sorry, but the egg, it's...
48:10It's hatching!
48:12Hatching?
48:13Oh, it's not broken?
48:14Why would it be broken?
48:18Beep!
48:19Beep!
48:20Beep!
48:24Oh!
48:24Beep!
48:24Beep!
48:25Beep!
48:25Say hello to your baby brother bird, Elmo Bird!
48:28Beep!
48:29Baby brother?
48:30Beep!
48:31Beep!
48:31Yo, Elmo Bird!
48:33How about that game of bitty golf?
48:36Beep!
48:37Beep!
48:37Oh, it's okay, Elmo Bird!
48:39You can go!
48:41Beep!
48:42Beep!
48:43Beep!
48:43Um, maybe later.
48:45Yeah, yeah.
48:46Elmo Bird wants to stay and play with his new baby brother.
48:51Do it yourself!
48:53Sitting in the nest is so much fun to do.
48:58Now that Elmo Bird is sitting here with you.
49:04Beep!
49:05Beep!
49:06Beep!
49:07That was an egg-cellent story, Elmo!
49:11Thank you, Velvet.
49:12Oh, and thank you, Birdie.
49:15Elmo couldn't have imagined this story without you.
49:18He-he-he-he!
49:19Curtain call!
49:20That's Elmo the Musical!
49:22Elmo the Musical!
49:23That's the end of our show!
49:29He-he-he!
49:30Bye-bye!
49:31He-he-he!
49:33Read!
49:34Read!
49:35Read!
49:35Ha-ha!
49:36That's right, Slimy.
49:38It's time for another chapter of The Adventures of Trash Gordon.
49:42Yay!
49:44Oh, he just loves reading trash.
49:47He-he.
49:47Here we go.
49:49Chapter 692.
49:53When we last left our hero, Trash Gordon had crash landed on the planet Wormhole 5 and was
50:01surrounded by, get this, Slimy, a gang of wiggly squiggly worms who were closing in fast.
50:09It looked as if Trash wouldn't be able to wriggle out of this one, but all of a sudden, he
50:15had an idea.
50:17Acting quickly, Trash Gordon pulled out a book and started to read to them in a quiet, worm-like voice
50:25from The Adventures of Trash Gordon.
50:31The worms, who love a good bedtime story, all fell asleep and our hero was saved.
50:39Trash then proclaimed proudly, but quietly,
50:43Sesame Street has been brought to you today.
50:45Ahem.
50:46Sesame Street has been brought to you today by the letter Y and by the number 5.
50:58Ah, it worked on you too, Slimy.
51:01Heh, that's some book.
51:07You're still here?
51:08Why don't you go read a book?
51:10He-he.
51:26We're still here, The Adventures of Trash Gordon.
51:27It's time for the day, July 8th, July 28th.
51:30He-he.
51:30He-he.
51:34He-he.
51:37He-he.
51:37He-he.
51:40He-he.
51:42He-he.
51:44He-he.
51:45He-he.
51:46I-he.
51:48He-he.
51:50He-he.
51:50He-he.
