Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPEN 	Big Bird hears music coming from the yard. He strolls over to find Maria, Mr. Handford, and the kids in the yard listening to the music of Los Pleneros de la 21, who perform a "plena" (a song that tells a story) about today's sponsors. To his delight, they also add a verse about Big Bird joining in their singing and dancing later, and Maria introduces him to the members of the group.
 	SCENE 1 	The band performs another plena, "Que Se Vá José." Band member Roberto then invites the Sesame Street residents to join in periodically with the "Lo ve lo ve lo ve Lola" chorus for their encore performance, where they switch between fast and slow tempos. Following the song, Roberto announces they'll be dancing the "bomba" next. Big Bird becomes excited, then wonders what a bomba could be...

 	SCENE 2 	Roberto demonstrates a bomba as he dances to Los Pleneros' music, with group member Nellie on lead vocals. Roberto then explains what the bomba is - it's a Puerto Rican dance brought from Africa, where the people dance with each other as well as the drums. He brings in a group of dancers made up of kids and adults, who dance in a circle as each person takes a turn dancing to the rhythms from one of the drummers. The rest of the cast soon joins in, too.
