Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Big Bird talks on the phone with his Mommy, who gives him a hint about the surprise present she mailed to him: it's big and rhymes with the word "note." He thinks of what it could be: it's not a "zoat," "gloat," or a "girrote." He then believes it's a goat, and goes off to gather some things.
