Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPEN 	Baby Bear and his fellow Bear Scouts Kentaro and Thea introduce the sponsors for today. Telly rushes in to add that they'll also be seeing him join the Bear Scouts, earning himself a hat like the others (a bowler with the Bear Scout emblem on it). He gets rattled when their leader, the boisterous Papa Bear, comes to start their meeting.
 	SCENE 1 	First on the Bear Scout agenda is to say the pledge. Telly doesn't know it, and doesn't have a hat to hold over his heart. Everyone recites it first and Papa Bear lets Telly borrow his hat.

 	SCENE 2 	Next, Telly watches as the scouts demonstrate how to put their dollies back together before they can finish counting to 40. Telly wonders why they would ever need to repair their dolls, when Papa Bear demonstrates - it always comes apart when they give it the Bear Scout Dolly Hug.
