Episode 5216

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPEN 	Elmo sets up today's theme of shapes, as some shapes run all around him, getting "in shape."
 	SCENE 1 	Chris is sweeping the yard when Elmo, Rosita and Telly roll in wearing robot outfits. Chris assumes they're playing the "Help-O-Bots" again, but instead they're the "Shape-O-Bots," robots who can transform into shapes. Chris pretends he's a robot and makes a circle with his arms. Telly shows him the power of their costumes and transforms into a large triangle before his eyes. They then sing their theme song for him and await someone in need of a shape. Chris is doubtful, when suddenly...
 	SCENE 1 cont'd	...a man named Andy (Andy Samberg) appears in need of an octagon. He explains that he used to have a red one at the tip of his pole (a STOP sign) to prevent people from crashing into him, but now he just gets trampled. After singing their theme once more (with Chris and Andy dancing along), Rosita transforms into the right shape for him and the folks leave him alone. He thanks them and runs off.
 	SCENE 1 cont'd	The Shape-O-Bots are not through, thinking someone else will need a shape. Sure enough, Andy returns (claiming to be a different person). Because he is wearing a baseball cap, he is clearly distinguished as a baseball coach and needs a pentagon for his losing team. He shows that while his penguin team can make the home runs, they can't score without a home plate. Elmo gives his outfit a try and successfully becomes a pentagon, just in time for his penguins to score home. He thanks them and follows his teammates.
 	SCENE 1 cont'd	Suddenly, a man resembling Andy (but with a mustache) appears in need of a shape - a rhombus. He explains that The King of Diamonds (of playing card fame) has lost his and believes that Andy has stolen it. The King and Queen arrive (as three-dimensional playing cards) and chase after him. While the chase occurs, Telly tries to transform into a rhombus, but once again becomes a triangle. The monsters observe the diamond on the queen's card and notice it's made of two triangles. To become a rhombus, Telly presses two buttons. The King is pleased to see a rhombus fit for a king and they go to tell Jack. Andy thanks them and Chris takes the monsters out for pizza. The King returns for his rhombus and, not finding one, chases after Andy again.
