 	SCENE 1 	Gordon welcomes the viewer as he dumps some trash into Oscar's trash can, then realizes that Oscar might be annoyed by this. Instead, Oscar greets Gordon and forgives him; he's unusually okay with it, knowing it was an accident. Gordon suspects there's something wrong with Oscar, who sings, "Oh, what a beautiful morning..." yet claims to feel lousy. It turns out he got up on the right side of the bed this morning and is in a good mood. He offers a trip to the park with Gordon, and wants to share the Rubber Duckie that Ernie let him borrow.
