Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Maria and some kids see a sign on Oscar's can: "INSULTS 5¢." Oscar says he’s now charging a nickel for each insult he gives rather than just giving them away. Maria finds this as a loophole and asks him several questions about herself without paying, resulting in him having to give compliments for free.

Next, he confirms that a man has built a birdhouse because of his blueprints and carpenter's tools. When he notices Beautiful Day Monster with a suitcase and an umbrella, Kermit assumes that the monster is going on a trip and using the umbrella as protection from the rain.
