 	SCENE 4 	Betty Lou talks about how much she loves her dolly - she sleeps with her, has tea parties with her, and even plays football with her (where the doll is sometimes the ball). Big Bird asks Betty Lou why she never gets upset when her dolly comes apart, and Betty Lou recalls past activities with her dolly that caused her head to come off. At first, she would cry until her her mommy and dad fixed it. One day during a tea party, the doll's head randomly fell off, but this time she remembered how her parents fixed the doll and was able to do it by herself. Now she repairs the doll whenever she loses her head, and is used to it when it happens.
