 	COLD OPEN 	What's the Word on the Street?: Popular
 	SCENE 	Alan shows Telly today's special menu at Hooper's Store - every is made with pickled peppers, and starts with P. Alan's expecting Peter Piper to deliver the peppers any minute, when Peter shows up playing peek-a-boo instead. He explains he's given up pickled pepper picking in pursuit of a purpose with more pizzaz. Some Anything Muppets show up for the specials and with no pickled peppers, Alan feels he must cancel. Telly is recruited to pick the peppers instead.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Telly reaches the pickled pepper patch and (with a photo to compare with) looks for the pickled peppers. He finally finds some and collects enough for the current crowd at Hooper's.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Back at Hooper's, Peter Piper returns with a new purpose - pogoing with a pair of penguins. Telly rushes back, crashing into them all and spilling the peppers. Peter doesn't think his new purpose has enough pizzaz and goes off to find another. Suddenly, some more customers (including Luis and Susan) show up, bringing the total to 6. Alan sends Telly back to the patch with a basket to collect more.
 	SCENE cont'd 	As Telly collects more pickled peppers, even more customers (including Maria) show up. Outside, Peter returns with a new purpose - pirouetting with a perky pachyderm (Horatio the Elephant). Telly returns, only to be knocked over by Horatio, spilling the peppers once more. Peter runs off to find a new purpose. Then, the Pickled Pepper Lovers Club shows up to the store for lunch. Telly thinks he's not fit to pick so many peppers and he and Alan realize they need Peter more than ever now.
 	SCENE cont'd 	Just then, Peter parachutes from a plane, joined by a pirate and his parrot, Polly. They try to convince Peter that he should go back to picking peppers, showing him how popular they are. They sing a song ("Come Back Peter Piper") that convinces him to go back to his old ways and pick enough pickled peppers for everyone.
