Sesame Street: Elmo's Sing-Along Guessing Game (1991)

Image	Segment	Description
 	FRAME 1	Elmo welcomes the viewer to Elmo's Sing Along Guessing Game and meets today's contestants - Mary and her little lamb from Nursery Rhyme, South Dakota, and Mr. Johnson, who isn't there for the game; he's mistaken the studio for the bus stop. Elmo then goes over the rules - a question will be asked, followed by a music video that contains the answer. If the player wishes to answer, they must jump on the trampoline and then ring the bell (following their crash landing). Elmo reads the first question - "What part of the body am I? If you didn't have me, you couldn't bend your arm to tickle your nose." They turn their attention to the video monitor...
 	Muppets	Kermit sings "I Love My Elbows".
(First: Episode 2582)
 	FRAME 2	The players don't seem to have an answer. Elmo knows and performs the answering method; the answer is elbows! The players aren't happy he got the answer and the director reminds Elmo the host doesn't answer the questions. Elmo apologizes, admitting he loves the trampoline. He proceeds with the next question - "What do you call the front part of your head?"
 	Muppets	Ernie and Elmo sing about the parts that make up "One Fine Face."

 	FRAME 5	The contestants are too busy dancing to answer, but Mr. Johnson knows it. He jumps on the trampoline, rings the bell and answers - a song! The director takes over hosting (while Johnson decides to stay right by the bell until his bus comes). She asks the contestants - "What are the two numbers that come after the number 6?" The video screen rolls two clues...

 	FRAME 7	Mary and her lamb have the answer and head for the trampoline. Their bounce is so great, they don't come down. The director leaves the stage, letting Elmo seize control of hosting duties. Now, Elmo pulls a studio audience member to play the game and the lucky person is Oscar the Grouch, who wishes to get it over with. Elmo asks him his question - "What is it that Grouches really love to collect?"

 	FRAME 8	Mary and her lamb finally land and give their answer, while Oscar answers the current question. He is offered anything he wants and wishes for an exit from the show. It's now time for the final question - "What is the name of this famous dance?"
 	Muppets	Count von Count sings "Lambaba" as he counts sheep and other animals that pop into the room.
(First: Episode 2789)
 	FRAME 9	Mary's lamb has the answer and answers with her bleating, which Elmo accepts, making her the winner! The lamb requests the song play again and everyone starts to dance as the credits start rolling. Part-way-through, Elmo notices Mr. Johnson, sadly still waiting for his bus. A horn blares and a bus crashes through the wall, being driven by Grover. He states the bus is going to Cincinnati (where Johnson would visit his mother), then asks how to get there. Johnson does his trademark faint and Grover joins the others in dancing the "Lambaba" while the remainder of the credits roll.
