The Amazing Mumford tries to remedy the situation with magic, but only manages to mess things up - first he takes the kids' basketball away, then gives them too many basketballs. Uncle Wally has a trick of his own to try: asking the kids to play. Both he and Big Bird get in the game as an impressed Mumford remarks, "And he didn't even use a wand." As Gordon announces the sponsors, Telly invites Oscar to join the game, but he declines (there's no elephants involved).
