Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Susan welcomes you back to Sesame Street. You're just in time to watch Gordon play a trick on Ernie.
 	Muppets 	Gordon has four things lined up in a row--a harmonica, a whistle, a trumpet, and a banana. He tells Ernie that one of these doesn't belong, and Ernie chooses the banana because you can make music with the instruments, but you eat the banana... or so he thinks. Gordon tells Ernie to blow into the banana and Ernie appears to be playing a horn until Gordon reveals he was honking a horn behind his back the whole time. Amused by the trick, they decide to play the same joke on Cookie Monster, but Cookie has a different idea--you eat the harmonica, whistle, and trumpet, and make beautiful music with the banana!

 	SCENE 2 	Gordon has Marlo write the alphabet up to the letter D.
 	Cartoon 	Two boys notice a D, saying it looks fat. A resonant voice (Gary Owens) informs them that it's the letter D. This leads to a jazzy story about a dog who digs for dice, wins a duck, and buys a dinosaur with a dime. Moral: "If you dig a dinosaur, drop your duck for a dime."

This time she's afraid of a monster, but the boy assures her that if the monster comes around, he'll be there to help out. Rewarding his kindness, she gives the boy back his jellybeans. All is well until the monster shows up and the girl reveals the reason the monster was bothering her was because he wanted the jellybeans. Now the boy has them, so she's no longer afraid. The monster eats the entire bag of jellybeans and gives the boy a kiss. Our hero is no longer afraid, but he still doesn't have jellybeans. Stay tuned....
 	SCENE 6 	Big Bird tells Gordon he's happy because a man carrying packages told him he has the longest neck he's ever seen. After Big Bird proudly leaves to take a "neck nap", Gordon tells Marlo that a giraffe actually has a larger and longer neck than Big Bird's.
