Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPENING 	Healthy Moment: Elmo and Rosita are playing baseball together with Joe Torre watching them. Elmo asks Joe Torre on how he should pitch the ball to Rosita. However, Joe Torre tells Elmo to walk her because it is good for the lungs, heart, muscle, and it keeps your body healthy. So Elmo and Rosita decide not to play baseball and go for a walk instead.cut from DVD version
 	SCENE 1 	Elmo welcomes the viewer to Sesame Street, and follows his ears over to the Fix-It Shop, where Maria and Luis are teaching Gabi and Miles how to dance to salsa music. Elmo learns that there's going to be a dance party tonight, so he wants to know how to salsa dance as well. They show him how, and he gives it a shot.

 	Phonics 	The Letter of the Day: EPrairie Dawn and Cookie Monster introduce the letter E (made of foam). Cookie Monster pretends that the letter is a cookie, prompting him to eat it. ("I'm gonna pretend this never happen.")Words begin with E: "egg", "eat", "elephant"

 	SCENE 2 	Elmo searches for a partner to salsa dance with, and meets a letter E (Joey Mazzarino), who seems like a good candidate for his partner. The E likes to dance in a specific way - "E-E-E" instead of "1-2-3." Unfortunately, the E already has plans to go to a "salsa-bet" party with the rest of the alphabet. Elmo goes on his way, continuing to practice dancing.
 	SCENE 2, cont'd. 	It's nighttime, and the salsa party is in full swing! Elmo looks on at all the dancers, and asks everyone he meets if they'd like to be his partner (Maria reminds him that they'll still do one dance together later on). Elmo still has no luck finding a salsa partner (not even when he asks a chicken). Elmo then realizes that he can ask the viewer to be his partner, since they both practiced together. Elmo goes over all the steps he did before, and joins the party, introducing everybody to the viewer. Elmo and the viewer have fun dancing at the salsa party!
