Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Baby Bear welcomes the viewer and announces that he's going inside the Furry Arms Hotel for the very first time, as it seems like such an interesting place. He isn't able to enter as he's never seen a revolving door, and asks Benny how it works. Baby Bear first pushes it too soft and gets nowhere, then too hard which sends him back outside and crashing into Benny. He learns that he needs to push somewhere in-between - or in his words, "just right." Baby Bear successfully gets in and is amazed when he enters the hotel. He exits again, and after a second collision, Benny says he needs a break. Baby Bear sees this as a perfect opportunity for a hotel tour, but when Benny refuses he falls to his knees and starts begging.

 	SCENE 2 	Benny has agreed to give Baby Bear a tour of the hotel and the two enter. Miss Netherland graciously welcomes Baby Bear to the place and asks him what he'd like to do first. Baby Bear expresses interest in ringing the Dinger's bell, so she lets him do it as long as Benny goes outside, since the bell is used to call the bellhop. Baby Bear first rings it too soft, then too hard (temporarily knocking out the Dinger). With each try Miss Netherland shows him how to ring it loudly, alerting Benny so he has to keep running in and out. Baby Bear finally rings the relieved Dinger correctly and continues on a tour of the lobby with a further exasperated Benny.

Benny says he can't ride the elevator or push the buttons, but Miss Netherland allows him to do so and they find themselves face to face with the Elephant Elevator Operator. Baby Bear doesn't believe there's any room for him, but Miss Netherland insists that Benny show him how to get in and out, practically breaking every bone in his body with every request to do it again. Baby Bear takes a flying leap and manages to get into the elevator with the operator and a near-concussed Benny... and just as soon as the elevator lifts up, it plummets down.
