Episode 3474

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Big Bird, Tarah, and Maria are all watching Natasha babble in her sleep. They speculate about what she might be dreaming about... it may even be Oscar’s pet elephant Fluffy, who's heard trumpeting nearby. In her dream, Natasha and Fluffy both sit in trash cans and begin to talk to (and imitate) each other. Natasha wakes up, but now they see Barkley is asleep next to them. He may be dreaming too, and they wonder what dogs dream about.

Barkley’s actual dream sequence is shown, where he plays frisbee with a bunch of kids at a park, and he takes a very high leap into the air to catch it.

Humphrey dreamt that he and Ingrid had a giant bottle of milk but no baby to drink it. It would go sour if nobody drank it, but just then, Superbaby arrived and drank the whole thing. As the monster family leaves, Big Bird wonders if he'll hear about more dreams when the Count runs by in his pajamas counting to himself.
