 	COLD OPEN 	Rosita informs Telly that Gordon had told her it will become dark before lunchtime. Telly doesn't believe it until Gordon passes by and confirms it's true. However, Rosita doesn't know why it will happen.
 	SCENE 1 	Gordon tells Telly and Rosita that there will be something called an "eclipse" before lunch. He shows them a demonstration of what will happen by having Devon pretend to be the Earth, Tarah pretend to be the sun, and Mr. Handford pretend to be the moon. Gordon then sings a song about the planets going around each other as the others demonstrate with the appropriate props. Telly and Rosita like the demonstration but they still don't know what an eclipse is, so Gordon leaves to show it in another way.
