Picture	Segment 	Description
 	SCENE 1 	Herry Monster is looking after the Fix-It Shop. Luis phones him from the lumber store, asking Herry to measure the piece of wood on the table for him. Herry first measures using some boxes and a brick, which isn't helpful to Luis as he doesn't know how big the boxes are that Herry's using to measure. Herry then measures one of the boxes with a couple of bricks when Luis asks him to use the measuring stick instead. Herry knocks all the boxes over (completely demolishing them) and measures the wood, sending Luis the precise measurement: one measuring stick and one brick long.

Big Bird already owns a mop and mug, and wants nothing to do with mud. He goes off, certain he can think of something else he can do with his new M, which he takes with him. The salesman is left with only his "M attachments," and another salesman (Richard Hunt) enters the scene to start hawking his own letter M to him.
