 	SCENE 1 	Telly talks to the viewer about all the things on Sesame Street he can be sure about every day: Oscar will always pop out of his can, Bob will get out of his apartment, Gordon will always come out of 123 Sesame Street, and Big Bird will always come out of his nest area. When he doesn't immediately come out, Telly looks inside and finds a small bird inside the large nest. He screams and thinks that Big Bird has shrunk, but Big Bird explains this isn't so - the bird he saw was his friend Little Bird, who's just staying there for a while since she's thinking of moving from the park to Sesame Street.

She remembers hearing that if someone is snoring, you can gently wake them up and they'll sleep in another direction. It works, but only briefly. She then tries to block out the sound by sleeping under the blanket, but she can barely breathe down there. She tells Big Bird that they can no longer be nestmates, but they can still be neighbors ("Like Mr. Rogers!").
