Episode 2999

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Telly welcomes the viewer, and reads two of today's sponsors (T and M) in the newspaper. He alerts Savion, who already knows this and has come prepared with a cowboy hat. Telly finds that neither of the letters begin cowboy hat, but Savion explains what he’s putting in the hat starts with T and M. After several wild guesses, Telly learns that the T and M Savion had in mind was... Telly Monster! Telly is glad that today is sponsored by these letters because it means he can pretend to be a cowboy. Before he goes to show the hat to Oscar, Savion shows him the number 2 inside, which Sesame Street is also sponsored by today.
