Episode 3060

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Maria encounters a greaser with wings, who claims to be the Tooth Fairy. He proves it by showing how much he knows about Maria: she used to live on the Grand Concourse of the Bronx, and he would leave a nickel under her pillow whenever she lost a baby tooth. Right now, he has a problem: he doesn't know which of his two unmarked bags is full of teeth and which one is full of money. He's not able to look inside them since he's so busy, so Maria suggests that he shake them to see which bag is which. She remarks to the viewer, "This is a very unusual street."

 	SCENE 2 	The Tooth Fairy is distressed because he's just been "ambushed" by a grinning bunch, which means to him that his money will soon be gone; he'll be "cleaned out" by said gang tonight. Maria offers to call the police, but he says it won't work. Suddenly, he spots "them" - the gang he mentioned, which consists of kids with missing teeth. The Tooth Fairy frets, saying, "By the time I get all those teeth out from under the pillows tonight, these kids are gonna cost me a month's salary!" ("A very unusual street." Maria reiterates.)

 	SCENE 3 	Savion enters Birdland to relax and listen to some jazz. Soon after he sits down next to Little Bird and starts chatting, Hoots gets off the phone and calls him over. Birdland's waiter has to babysit tonight, so Hoots asks Savion to fill in for him. Savion has never been a waiter before so Hoots explains the easy process, saying anyone can do it. He says "Watch this ..." as both of them face the camera...
 	Muppets 	Waiter Grover has a new method of remembering orders: He makes up a poem to remember what is ordered and who ordered it. Mr. Johnson orders a cheeseburger with a pickle and French fries, which Grover interprets as "Round and tasty on a bun, pickles, French fries, yum, yum, yum!" However, he brings Mr. Johnson a grapefruit on a bun.
