 	SCENE 1 	Both Gina and Carlo prepare for their new jobs - Gina has opened up a day care center around the corner, and Carlo assumes Gina's old job working at Hooper's Store. Big Bird assures the two that he is going to be helping them both, but then faces a problem... if Carlo is going to be at Hooper's, and Gina will be all the way around the corner, how can he help them if he can't be in two places at once?

 	SCENE 2 	Big Bird has figured out a solution to help both Gina and Carlo: he wears his roller skates so he can travel between Hooper's and Gina's Family Day Care with more speed, thus providing them with the help they need. After checking in with Carlo, Big Bird heads to Gina's, who is in the middle of a guessing game called "What's That Food?" with Zoe and some kids (including Michael). Big Bird sits down for a couple of rounds, but incorrectly guesses that the clues Gina gives for an apple and a banana instead pertain to birdseed hot dogs. Big Bird prepares to leave but Gina insists he sits for one more round... in which he correctly guesses a birdseed hot dog, which she happens to have for him! Gina then announces that they will soon be going on a field trip to Hooper's to see Carlo, so Big Bird takes off to let him know they're coming.
