Big Bird still feels something poking him though.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Gordon looks again and finds the letter C in the nest, as Big Bird always sleeps with the letter of the day ("Don't you?"). Big Bird still isn't comfortable and Gordon looks again, this time finding a cactus! Gordon thinks because of his prickly spines, Big Bird can't sleep. Insulted, the cactus heads back to the desert. Gordon then finds a number 1 (the number of the day), followed by one pineapple. Gordon points out that the fruit is also prickly and she leaves for home, Hawaii.The portion with the cactus was cut in the HBO version.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Although Big Bird's nest is now completely empty, he still feels uncomfortable and can't sleep. Suddenly, the Princess (from "The Princess and the Pea") arrives to offer her services, being a part-time sleep consultant.

 	SCENE cont'd 	Big Bird still feels uncomfortable, to Gordon's disbelief. Susan appears at the window, wondering what's going on. Gordon realizes that Big Bird's issue must be his new pajamas - he never took the tag off! Gordon removes the tag and Big Bird is able to sleep with comfort.
