Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Gordon and Luis hear the very loud sound of a siren coming from Oscar's trash can. Sure enough, Oscar is enjoying the sound it makes as he cranks his own personal siren, but everyone insists that he cut out the racket. A police car passes, and Oscar wants to know why policemen can have a siren and he can't. Luis explains the important reasons why, and Oscar decides to become a policeman.

 	SCENE 2 	Again, the sound of a siren blasts through Sesame Street. When Luis and Gordon come to complain, they discover Oscar (wearing a policeman's cap and badge) happily playing with his siren. If policemen can have sirens, then Oscar will be a policeman -- that is, until Luis and Gordon remind him that policemen have to do nice things for people. This thought destroys Oscar's desire to be a policeman. An ambulance blaring a siren passes by, and Oscar has a new idea. He'll become a doctor!

 	SCENE 4 	Luis has the perfect solution to Oscar's siren problem -- they have attached a funnel and a tube to the front of the siren, and connected it with a pair of earphones! Now Oscar can blast away at his siren without disturbing anyone. Oscar has a small problem hearing what's being said when he's wearing the earphones, though.
 	Muppets 	Herbert Birdsfoot and Grover talk about "AN" words. Herbert demonstrates the words themselves, while Grover provides visual aids. The first word they talk about is RAN. While Herbert talks about how to make the word, Grover keeps running around the scene until he tires himself out.
