Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPEN 	Biff and Sully introduce the episode's letter sponsors, but Biff's gesturing as he holds each sponsor ends up knocking Sully down. He blames Sully for getting in his way (rather than taking any personal responsibility).
 	SCENE 1 	At today's Birdketeer meeting, Big Bird presents his friends Lea Salonga and a duck, who will sing a song. The duck confesses that he doesn't know how to sing. Lea and the gang help him by teaching him a few simple notes before Lea launches into singing "A Little Bit." Big Bird and the kids are so impressed by the results, they want to learn to sing like the duck.
