Picture	Segment 	Description
 	Cold opening	Wolle counts down from five. When he gets to zero he cheers and says "Sesamstrasse time" and pushes the red button.
 	Intro 	
 	Scene 	Nils, Samson and Finchen are playing Ludo, when they hear a loud noise coming from Rumpel, so they go over to him to see what's going on. Rumpel is listening to what he thinks is music, more specifically the 3rd noise symphony by Ludwig van Krachhoven. Nils asks Rumpel not to listen to that noise all day, so Rumpel gets an idea: he is going to compose his own symphony.
 	Scene 	Rumpel has set up various instruments for his symphony: cans on a string, a pair of typewriters, and some horns. However, he soon discovers that he can't play all the instruments at the same time.
 	Scene 	Rumpel decides to try and put the instruments closer together and he gives it another try, but still finds it difficult to reach the various instruments in time. Meanwhile Nils, Samson and Finchen conclude that, judging by the sounds they hear from Rumpel, he might need some help. They go over to him and volunteer to help play his symphony. Rumpel is reluctant at first; after all, they are not Grouches, but ends up accepting their help, with the requirement that he will be the conductor.
 	Scene 	Before they start, Nils insists that they test their instruments first, and afterwards they start to play as Rumpel does the conducting and singing. Rumpel is happy with the result.
 	Scene 	They continue to play, but it's starting to get out of hand for Rumpel as his musicians are starting to find it funny. Rumpel is shocked; a Grouch symphony is not supposed to be fun, it's supposed to be loud and horrible. Nils, Samson and Finchen confirm that it's loud and horrible, but still fun. After thinking about it, Rumpel accepts the fact that the symphony is also fun for some.

The boss tells Wolle that gum is not allowed in the control room, so Wolle quickly spits it out and leaves. But as he moves away from the chair the gum sticks to the chair and Wolle gets pulled back into the chair. The boss then tells Wolle that that's the reason why gum is not allowed.
