Picture	Segment 	Description
 	Muppets / Celebrity	Inside Sesame StreetMonty introduces the story of Little Jack Horner, who has recently given up eating with his thumb. At Hooper's, Katie Couric interviews Horner, who has tried using parts of his face to eat his pie, with less-than-satisfactory results: he stuck in his hair and pulled out a pear, then stuck in his snout and pulled out a trout, etc. He vows to make a comeback, however, then sticks his thumb in the pie and accidentally flings a plum into Katie's eye.

 	SCENE 5 	Telly has passed the test, meaning Oscar can finally leave. They see the Grouch Air flight above them and Mrs. Grouch drops from it. She has gotten tired of waiting for Oscar to leave, so she has come to the street instead. Due to the short notice, she was unable to find a sitter for Ally, her alligator, so she's brought her along too. Since Telly was already going to pet sit, she leaves him in his care while she drags her son off to the dump. Telly puts the menacing gator to sleep with the lullaby, then announces the sponsors.
