Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Biff supervises as Sully drills the sidewalk outside 123 Sesame Street. Gordon comes to the window, begging them to stop, as baby Miles is going to be taking his nap. Sully can't seem to drill any quieter, so Biff suggests they take their lunch break earlier. Gordon winces as Biff blows the steam whistle to alert the other hardhats of lunch, though this doesn't wake up the baby either. Biff produces a celery stalk from his lunchbox and the crunch from his first bite is enough to wake up Miles. "Guess I shoulda started with the chocolate mousse," Biff notes.
