After David guesses a few incorrect answers, Elmo reveals that he has named the doll "David" after him. Elmo believes that having two Davids on Sesame Street could be confusing, so he has taken the liberty of changing David's name to "Dustin."

David notices that Snuffy has a string tied around his snuffle to remind him to get 10 of something. After mulling it over he remembers to get a box of Cabbage Crumb Cookies, with two additional ones - one for him to eat on the way home and one for David.
