Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Oscar feels bothered by his neighbors playing basketball nearby. He threatens to get rid of all the buildings, but everybody brushes it off. Oscar proceeds to imagine all of Sesame Street has vanished, save for him and his trash can, leaving it in a dull, gray void. Alone at last, Oscar decides to blare his siren, but stops when he realizes it's no fun to bother people if nobody's around. He snaps back to reality and enjoys the aggravation he can really cause everyone. Eventually, they allow Oscar to use his siren as long as he lets them play basketball.
