Episode 3322

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPEN 	Telly believes today will be a calm, normal day on Sesame Street and introduces the sponsors. A bugle sound blares out and suddenly Chicken Licken (from the story of the same name), aided by Turkey Lurkey, appears. Chicken Licken proclaims that the sky is falling, having been hit on the head by a piece of it. Tarah tries to logically reason with him, but Telly easily falls prey into their fear tactics.
 	SCENE 1 	Telly joins the two in their plan to save everyone from the so-called falling sky. Telly, whom they call "Telly Welly" (his sky-falling name - also part of the plan), is tasked with providing everyone on Sesame Street with a hardhat, just like the ones they're wearing. Chicken Licken and Turkey Lurkey go off to warn their other animal friends, as well as the king. Telly heads to "Ruthie Wuthie" for some hardhats and bumps into Tarah, who asserts the sky cannot fall.

Rosita worries that her grandmother, who speaks little English, will not understand their warning and teaches Telly how to say it in Spanish. This attracts Rosita's friend Manolo, who is also bilingual. They also get Barkley's attention and attempt to give him a hat, though they're not sure if he understands.

 	SCENE 3 	Joined by Lexine, Telly theorizes that without a sky, airplanes will drive on the roads (causing accidents), birds will walk instead of flying, there will be rain everywhere, and eternal darkness because there's no sun. He calls some more kids to gather umbrellas, galoshes, and flashlights, while Tarah tries to point out again that they're overreacting.

 	SCENE 4 	Gordon runs into Telly and Rosita and learns what's going on. He uses his science teacher knowledge to explain the sky can't fall down; it's made up of air, just as Tarah insisted. Chicken Licken and Turkey Lurkey return, having told the king and everyone else, when they're told the news. Chicken Licken wonders what hit him on the head earlier, and Gordon removes Chicken Licken's hardhat to reveal what he felt: a mere pinecone. He goes off to redact his claims.

Ruthie provides him options of more chicken-appropriate hats while everyone announces the sponsors.
