 	COLD OPEN 	What's the Word on the Street?: Disguise
 	SCENE 	Chris reads Abby Cadabby “The Frog Prince,” which she anxiously waits for the ending of. Chris finishes the story and Abby loves it.
 	SCENE cont'd 	As Abby walks down the street, she finds herself amazed that a frog of all things could be an enchanted prince. While Oscar deals with a man with some trash behind her, Abby wonders if someone on Sesame Street could be a prince. She sees Oscar and gets the idea that he may be an enchanted prince!
 	SCENE cont’d 	In Abby’s imagination, she tells what she thinks is Oscar’s fairy tale origin. He once was a handsome, kind prince who received trashy treasures from his subjects, until one day, a Fairy Grouchmother witnessed this and was disgusted. With a wave of her wand, she turned him into a nasty Grouch.
 	SCENE cont’d 	Back in reality, Abby believes it’s her duty to kiss Oscar and make him a prince again. She tells Oscar she’s going to kiss him, but he thinks otherwise. She floats up to his trash can, but he shuts the lid and emerges again with a protective mask on. He then hangs a “No Kissing” sign on his trash can and announces (using a megaphone) that his trash can is now a no-kissing zone and that he’ll be staying in his trash can forever (ordering from “Szechuan Grouch” for food). Abby gets an idea how to reach him...
 	SCENE cont’d 	Abby poofs herself into Oscar’s trash can. Abby tries to find Oscar in the dark, but ends up smooching his pets. Fearing he may be next, he bounces on his trampoline and sky-rockets out of his trash can.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Oscar crashes in front of Hooper’s, where Chris is folding napkins. Oscar asks him for a disguise so Abby won’t recognize him and kiss him. Abby poofs herself to Hooper’s and sees a green man who goes by the name of James Bond. She recognizes him as Oscar. Chris settles this by making Oscar let Abby kiss him because if nothing happens to him, Abby will see she’s wrong. Abby checks her breath and kisses Oscar and…
 	SCENE cont’d 	…he remains the same. Abby is disappointed and thinks it was more fun in the story. Chris tells her that the frog was a fairy tale frog and that most frogs are just regular frogs and they like it like that! Oscar expresses his desire to be a Grouch in a song, “I Don't Wanna Be a Prince.” Abby doesn’t mind, as she loves Oscar anyway and begins chasing him for a hug.
