Elmo refuses to eat it, he's busy looking for B words. He sees a buffalo statue on the crate. He even found a box. He's beginning to think he should not trap himself in a box. On his next stop, he sees Gina with her binoculars as Elmo wanders around for more B words on a large hillside. After that, Elmo sees a bear. This frightens him and almost bumps into Chris! He wanted to tell Chris about B words that begin with, but he's puzzled. Chris is confused. "How could it be so?" This gave Elmo an idea. Elmo then goes back to tell Bob about it and then plays "the letter B game — NOT", where he finds things that do not begin with B. After all that searching, Elmo lost all his energy because of all the B searching. He then moves on but finds it hard when Buster, Big Bird and Barkley show up.
