Description 
|-
| style="text-align: center"|
| style="text-align: center"|Mr. Handford greets the viewer to a special day on Sesame Street. Biff and his construction crew have spent all week rebuilding Hooper's Store, and today will be the grand reopening of the street's special gathering place. Outside the store, he encounters Big Bird, Snuffy, and a very sleepy Bob in front of the store. 
|-
| style="text-align: center"|
| style="text-align: center"|In a flashback, Bob explains how, yesterday, Big Bird and Snuffy were "steamed" at the thought of having a different Hooper's Store. Bob explained to them that things change, which does not automatically mean things are worse, or better.
