Episode 3677

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Gordon is taking Miles, Telly, Rosita, and Elmo hiking in the park. Telly is having trouble keeping up because his pack is too heavy, its contents including soap in case he falls in the mud, a tent in case it rains, a flashlight to look into dark places, binoculars, a whistle, and a dictionary in case he wants to look up a word. Everyone takes one thing from Telly’s pack to help lighten the load. Elmo thinks it’s silly that Telly packed a tent just for a hike, but Telly disagrees.
