Episode 3096

Picture	Segment 	Description
 	COLD OPEN 	Luis announces today's sponsors as Elmo and Telly run around playing "Star Invaders Triangle Tag." Telly trips and breaks his triangle, which makes him upset. Luis fixes it with glue, but it comes apart when they start to play with it again. Luis makes it clear that Telly has to hold the triangle for five minutes (or until he counts to 300) while the glue dries. Telly does so, and Elmo helps him count.
 	SCENE 1 	Once Elmo and Telly have finished counting to 300, the glue has dried. They resume their game of Star Invaders and run off. Just then, Lucy asks Luis to watch her tricycle while she goes inside Hooper's Store. Telly doesn't see the bike, so he trips and falls over it. He gets up and notices that his right arm is in immense pain and is swelling up ("Like Popeye!" says Elmo). Luis says that's how he felt when he broke his arm, which means it has now happened to Telly.
 	SCENE 1cont'd	Luis reassures Telly that his broken arm will not fall off, and that the bones inside his arm are broken. And even though Luis can fix toasters, he can't fix Telly's arm so he calls a taxi so they can take Telly to the hospital. Telly insists on bringing Freddy along, claiming he hurt his arm too. Once they leave, Elmo runs off to tell everyone what happened to Telly.

 	Muppets 	Biff and Sully are about to start work, when Biff realizes he forgot his portable radio. He tells Sully not to start work until he comes back with it, but every time he's about to leave, he hears Sully doing a different kind of construction work. Sully's noisy building results in a piano, which Sully plays as Biff works.

 	SCENE 2 	In the hospital waiting room, Telly waits nervously for the doctor to call him in (humming "Bidin' My Time" to himself). He has a tuba lesson coming up, so he hopes he gets called soon. He notices a girl sitting next to him, with a broken arm in a cast which was signed by all her friends. Telly looks around some more and makes the connection that everyone in the waiting room has "something wrong with them." Luis then explains the meaning of the word emergency, and Telly is immediately called in.
 	SCENE 2cont'd	The nurse (Gina Torres) takes Telly's temperature and listens to his heart; he insists that she do the same for Freddy. Just then, Dr. Sing enters to examine Telly's arms. He can't tell if the right arm is broken, so he arranges to have an x-ray taken. "How will they get a photographer in there?!" Telly wonders.
 	SCENE 2cont'd	In the x-ray room, a nervous Telly learns about how x-ray photography works. He stalls a bit before he gets an x-ray taken of both his arms, and Freddy gets the same treatment.

 	SCENE 3 	Dr. Sing examines the x-rays, and determines that Telly's arm is broken because the x-rays show how both arms look different. He reassures Telly that if he keeps his arm perfectly still for six weeks, the bones in his arm will grow back.
 	SCENE 3cont'd	For the bones to remain still, Telly's arm is put in a cast. He learns that he won't be able to play the tuba for six weeks, and feels bad about it. He realizes that everything changed in less than an hour. He lists the things he won't be able to do now that his arm is broken, and feels like it's his fault. Luis walks him through what happened earlier (seen in a brief flashback), and once Telly finds out it was Lucy who set the bike "in his way," he becomes angry at Lucy. Luis says it's no one's fault, and mentions when he himself broke his arm he was angry at first, but his anger faded away and he learned to live with it. Telly laments, "I can't hold a crayon or write - you call that living?!" Luis gives him a crayon so he can try writing with his left hand. Telly struggles to write his name, but feels proud of it afterwards.

Luis announces the sponsors as Telly takes out an umbrella, to make sure his cast doesn't get wet on their space journey.
