 	COLD OPEN 	What's the Word on the Street?: Brainstorm
 	SCENE 	Big Bird and Snuffy find a stage in the middle of the yard. An Anything Muppet host (Matt Vogel) appears, declaring the two as the hosts for today's Letter of the Day Show. They start hopping in joy of finding out the letter of the day, causing the letter behind the curtains to fall over and break. Because it was not visible at first, they don't know how to repair it. They get the idea that the show's guests will provide clues for what the letter was, as each guest is related to the letter in some way.
 	SCENE cont'd 	The first guest is a Box. They think the letter of the day is B, but they only have two straight pieces. The next guest is a Ball of Wax. They think the letter could be W, but it has four lines. The next guest is a Tyrannosaurus-Rex, played by Leela (who wanted to be on the show, and also loves dressing as a dinosaur). Big Bird gives up on the cause, not being able to figure out how all the guests are related when they start with different letters.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Snuffy encourages them to keep thinking when they hit upon an idea: the words start with different letters, but end the same way: with the letter X! Leela fixes the letter for them and they rejoice. The host has them sing a song in celebration of the letter, along with their many guests ("Hurray for X").

 	Muppets / Animation	Abby's Flying Fairy SchoolToday, the students play with puppets, but Blögg can’t seem to make his work. He tries using magic to turn it into a real boy, but instead turns himself into a puppet. Mrs. Sparklenose explains the only way he can become normal again is by undergoing the “Pinocchio Process”. The first step is to hop with a cricket, so they poof themselves to a field to find one. After hopping with one, Blögg’s feet become normal. Next, they poof to a farm to do the “Donkey Dance of Joy” with a donkey. However, the donkey is rogue and begins chasing him. They call on Spot, who shows them a brief song about hay. They conjure up some hay, which sedates the donkey and makes him dance, making Blögg gain his arms back. Finally, Blögg must swim with a whale. They poof underwater, but Blögg has trouble swimming and his friends help him. Now back to normal and in the classroom, Blögg uses his wand to operate the puppet. (re-orchestrated theme song)

 	Muppets 	The VoiceThree celebrity judges will find the next big singer by listening only to the voices of the contestants, via the use of rotating chairs (that constantly knock over the host). However, the judges mistake other sounds made by the body (including tap dancing, whistling and armpit noises) as voices, frustrating the host further and further. When he's had his fill, he decides to rotate the chairs himself (to avoid being whacked again) and the chair spins out of control. His screams impress the judges and they declare him the Voice!
