Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Luis asks the kids and Big Bird if they can guess what's coming to Sesame Street today from the following clues: it's strong enough to knock down trees (Big Bird guesses elephants), it blows (Big Bird guesses it's Mr. Snuffleupagus), and it rhymes with "pinned." After the kids correctly guess that it's wind that's coming, Luis takes them over to the garage so they can get their kites. Snuffy shows up confirming Big Bird's second guess, so he calls after them, but no one can hear the shouting over the wind.

 	Muppets 	Benny and his boss have been waiting for Lefty for a long time. Benny wonders how they will know when it's Lefty at the door, so he reminds him that Lefty will knock three times - their secret knock to enter their hideout. Lefty forgets the number, and has to be hinted from his boss what the number of knocks are to gain access, finally giving the correct amount. When they let him in, the boss reprimands him for his poor memory, and warns him that he'll be in big trouble if he forgets again. To test his memory, the boss and Benny lock themselves out, telling him not to let them in until they give the secret knock. Despite the boss' warning, Lefty forgets once again, and finally having enough, he fearfully runs out the back door, leaving the other two stranded outside yelling, "Let us in!" as they angrily pound on the door trying to get in.
