Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Snuffy sets up a proscenium in the yard with help from Daniella and Naoika, and Bob tries to guess what's going on. Big Bird enters with a script, asking for advice on which voice he should use to read it. Chinyere brings some costumes, and Snuffy tells her where to put them. Bob finally guesses correctly: Snuffy is going to put on a play that he wrote himself … and Bob, Luis and Maria are going to be in it! They are a little bashful about the roles Snuffy assigns them.
