Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPEN 	Cookie Monster shows off (and eats) some healthy foods, which we'll be seeing in just a bit.
 	SCENE 1 	In the community garden, Alan teaches Elmo and Rosita about corn. He explains that it is the right time for corn to be picked, and that many cultures all around the world have big corn celebrations this time of year. Rosita wants to have a corn party, and Grover comes in claiming to be an expert about corn, holding up a carrot assuming it's corn. Elmo then has the idea of making corn decorations, and Alan has the idea of everyone bringing corn dishes their families make.
 	SCENE 1 cont'd	At the corn party, Grover notices that some of the corn is not corn, but Alan explains that even though they're not yellow, they're still corn. Elmo shows off his dish, corn on the cob, a dish he and his dad made together. He mentions that he loves making corn on the cob together almost as much as he loves eating it. Alan notices paprika on the corn, and Elmo says that it's the secret ingredient. Tamir and Charlie then arrive with their dishes. Grover then again finds it not to be corn, but bread, but Charlie explains that it's cornbread. Tamir's cornbread has zucchini from the community garden, a dish his grandma perfects in. Charlie's has apples, a dish special to her family.
 	SCENE 1 cont'd	Tamir and Charlie leave, and Elmo, Grover, and Alan can't wait to try all the delicious food, when Rosita comes in with her dish: pineapple tamales. Grover once again thinks there's a lack of corn, but Rosita explains that pineapple tamales have corn on the inside and out. She talks about how pineapple tamales is a special dish her family makes with corn, and it is made by mixing pineapple with ground up corn and wrapping it in corn husk. She then points out that the basket they're in is also made of corn husks. Tamir realizes that each of their families adds something to their corn dishes, like zucchini, apples, pineapple, or paprika, and Alan adds on that each family has their own special way of making foods together, and that when you share the foods that are special to you, you share something special about yourself.
