 	Cold Opening	Nils and Samson are decorating the street for a party. Finchen asks if she can help, so Samson says that of course she can help; there's a lot of things they need to hang up.
 	Intro 	
 	Scene 	Finchen has the job of hanging some decorations up; however, she is having difficulties reaching up. Nils takes over and hangs up the decorations. Instead, Finchen finds some lamps that she wants to hang up on the street sign. First she tries to throw the lamps over the sign; however, that doesn't work. Samson notices that Finchen is having difficulties and comes over to help her. Finchen refuses Samson's help; she wants to do it herself.
 	Scene 	Finchen builds a ladder at her leaf pile; this will surely help her put up the lamps on the sign. She climbs the ladder, but just as she is about to reach the top, the ladder breaks. Finchen tries again, and this time she has found her mountaineering equipment, and starts to climb the sign post. It seems to go well, but she ends up falling down. There has to be a way to get the lamps all the way up the sign post. Just then she notices Samson blowing up balloons, which gives her an idea.
 	Scene 	Nils carries out his box of CDs; however, he seems to have lost the key for it. Just then, Finchen comes floating by with a balloon so she can hang up the lamps. But before Nils and Samson can warn her, the balloon hits the sign and she crashes. She explains to Nils and Samson that she wanted to hang the lamps on the sign post, but she is too small to reach it. Nils tells Finchen that she could just have asked one of them to do it, but Finchen replies that she wanted to help with the party preparations. Just then, she notices something on the ground under an outdoor shelf. Nils stops Samson as he bends down to pick it up. Nils says that Samson's arm is way too big, and that they will need someone small to pick it up. Finchen reaches down under the shelf and picks up some keys. It turns out to be the keys for Nils' CD box. Nils tells Finchen that she just saved the party, because you can't have a party without music.
