Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Maria works on a toaster at the Fix-It Shop while Elmo asks several questions about the process. Maria tells him he's quite curious and explains what the word means. Elmo asks if everybody can be curious and Maria responds affirmatively, so Elmo calls in a whole slew of kids to assemble and ask endless questions together.

 	SCENE 2 	As the last of the kids leave, Elmo remains behind, still feeling curious. Maria shows him something to be amazed by - her "Magic N (Jim Martin)," which can do anything that starts with N.

 	SCENE 3 	Telly comes by the Fix-It Shop to show off his favorite triangle, which he wears like a necklace. He allows Elmo to hold it, but it drops on the sidewalk and shatters. They both blame each other for breaking it, but Maria calms them down and talks with each of them, explaining it was nobody's fault and it simply was an accident. Elmo and Telly make up, and the N joins them for a hug.

Maria shows him how well she put it back together, but Telly has a hard time waiting for the glue to dry. Elmo proposes they pass the time by counting and they all count to 40 together, with the N chiming in for 9, 19, 29, and 39. With the triangle repaired, Telly lets Elmo hold it.
