Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Grover's kite is stuck in a tree and he can't get it down. While brainstorming with Big Bird, they come up with the idea of standing on each other's shoulders. Big Bird volunteers to get on Grover's shoulders, though Grover has great difficulty in trying to balance the giant bird. "It's a good thing that monsters are very strong!" says Big Bird as he reaches for the kite, but Grover can barely keep the bird up for long before finally falling over. Big Bird manages to get the kite in his beak before the fall, but it ends up split open over Grover's head. "I cannot do this anymore; I am too delicate," Grover frets.
