 	COLD OPEN 	What's the Word on the Street?: Balance
 	SCENE 	Telly heads to Hooper's Store for an early breakfast, catching the tail end of Leela's morning yoga class and is fascinated.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Telly is upset he's missed the class, but Elmo and Rosita offer to teach him it. He wishes to learn the flamingo pose he caught. They have him breathe in and out and show him the set-up moves. He tries standing on one foot, but falls over. He tries it on the other foot, but falls over too. He has Elmo and Rosita hold him in place, but once they let go, he again tips over.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Telly realizes that the problem is because he believes his right arm is heavier than his left, so he needs something to balance the weight. Elmo hands him a rock, which manages to make his left side heavier. Rosita puts a salt shaker in his right hand to balance out, but it makes that side heavier.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Chris hears some yoga-talk from the yard and goes to check it out. When he arrives, he finds Telly covered with items to help balance his weight. He strips Telly of them and explains to balance himself, he needs to find his center of balance, showing him how it works using his napkin dispenser and tray. As Telly stands on one foot, Chris moves him around until he's able to balance himself. Telly rejoices and wants to learn more. Elmo scrunches himself into his "Salty Pretzel" pose, but Telly feels he's not ready for that and bolts, with Elmo hobbling behind.
 	Muppets / Celebrity	Emma Stone tries to show the word balance by balancing things on her head, but is unsuccessful. Abby provides some magical help.
 	Muppets 	Murray announces Abby's Flying Fairy School is on the way, but first wonders what makes boats (like his toy) float. ""¡Vamos a averiguarlo!", declares Ovejita and they find themselves at the New York Hall of Science. There, the instructor introduces their challenge: they will make boats from tin foil and see how many washers they can hold before sinking.
 	Cartoon 	Cookie Monster sings about the E sound in the word "elephant."
 	Muppets 	Murray and a group of girls introduce Abby's Flying Fairy School.
 	Muppets / Animation	Abby's Flying Fairy SchoolMrs. Sparklenose helps Abby, Blogg and Gonnigan recycle bottles they brought from home. One of Abby's bottles is dusty, so she rubs it and out comes Gene the Genie. He feels cramped inside and refuses to go back in. The bottle, not wanting to be empty, begins hopping around, looking for someone to suck inside. The bottle entraps Mrs. Sparklenose inside, while Gene plans to spend 1,001 nights in Vegas. Abby reminds Gene he needs to grant 3 wishes. Abby wishes for Mrs. Sparklenose to get out of the bottle, with Niblet then taken in his place. Gonnigan rephrases the wish and asks for not one of them to be inside, so he poofs them all inside, thus there is not one. They call on Spot, who shows them a film on “all” and “none”. They wish for all of them to get out and none of them would be inside. The bottle looks for someone to capture and it gets Mrs. Sparklenose again. Gene refuses to switch places with her, not wanting to be in a small space again. They twinkle think and get an idea to magically recycle his bottle with other ones to make a larger one, complete with sliding glass doors so he can leave whenever he feels. (updated theme song)
