Sesame Street (Dec 11 episode)


The show begins where Baby Natasha and her parents, Ingrid and Humphrey, were in the playground with Oscar and his pet worm, Slimey. Baby Natasha was playing with Slimey when she suddenly takes out a baby rattle. Suddenly, she uses the rattle and starting pounding on Slimey, who fortunately, escapes unharmed. Baby Natasha's parents are shocked and tries to tell Natasha that she shouldn/t go 'Bang bang' with the rattle, instead she should shake it. They start shaking themselves (vigourously)to give Natasha an idea on how to shake the rattle. Natasha shakes the rattle for awhile but resumes pounding her rattle at Slimey. Oscar threatens to bring Slimey away if Natasha plays rough. Natasha's parents get worried and tries to get Oscar and Slimey to stay by thinking of another game. They put their heads together (literally) and took a long time to think of a new game. Oscar gets tired of waiting and left with Slimey.

Elmo and Telly wants to be like the Two-headed monster, so they put on the Two-headed monster costume and seeks help from the Two-headed monster on how to be a Two-headed monster. The Two-headed Monster teaches Telly and Elmo who succeeds after a few tries. Soon they start to talk like the Two-headed monster jabbering gibberish.

Meanwhile with Baby Natasha, her parents has thought up of a game. That is the Alphabet Song! Oscar: Well..ah I guess it's okay. Careful Slimey.Slimey crawls onto Baby Natasha and her parents start to sing the Alphabet song. When the song has ended, Natasha's parents were glad to find that Slimey is still unhurt that they give Natasha a big hand. Baby Natasha gets excited and follows suit, 'mushing' Slimey at the same time, as Oscar would say. Oscar:This play day is definitely over!

Prairie Dawn puts up a show about islands. She plays the piano while Herry Monster is dressed like an island. Telly and Zoe comes out next dressed as water, and they go 'Splish! Splash! Splish! Splash!' saying that an island is surrounded by water and the show ends with them hugging each other. Sweet.

Mr Johnson goes into a clothes shop to buy a suit. He saw a suit on a mannequin and decides to buy it. He looks for a salesperson which happened to be Grover. Grover: Now what might I show you Sir?'But I thought you were a waiter!' Mr Johnson exclaims. Anyway, Grover announced to Mr Johnson that there was no more size 2 as Mr Johnson wanted a size 2. Mr Johnson thought that the suit on the mannequin looked like a size 2 and when Grover said it was, he insisted Grover take that suit down for him to try on. Grover: Oh no Sir, I do not think that is a good idea. Grover argues that that is not possible because the mannequin might be embarrassed without a suit on. Grover:He will have no clothes on, and no clothes on means he will be very embarrassed. Mr Johnson explains to Grover (furiously) that the mannequin is made of plastic and has no feelings, therefore it would not feel embarrassed. Grover still refuses to take the suit down. Grover: He, now, may not be embarrassed because he is ah..naked, but I will be. Mr Johnson, left with no choice, but to suggest that Grover take down the suit and replace it with another suit. Grover thinks that that is a splendid idea and he rips off Mr Johnson's suit. Meanwhile the people in the shop is shocked at Mr Johnson and someone shouted 'Call the security!' Mr Johnson runs off leaving a puzzled Grover who says 'Oh well, the customer's always right!'

Back at the playground, Oscar calls Baby Natasha a 'bully baby'. Natasha's parents cries when they hear this. Gordon comes along and teaches Natasha to be nice. Holding Natasha's hand, he gently strokes his own face saying 'Nice,nice Gordon'. And brings Natasha's hand to her own face and gently strokes it saying 'Nice, nice Natasha'. After doing this for a few times, Oscar comes back and decides to give Baby Natasha another chance. Oscar: Yeah. Oh goodie. A whole afternoon of nice-niceHe let her play with Slimey while Gordon coaxes Natasha to stroke Slimey by saying ' Nice , nice Slimey.' Baby Natasha responds by squashing Slimey with her palm.

Bert and this man (Rick Moranis) were on the plane, sitting together. Both of them doesn't want to introduce themselves because they're afraid they wouldn't have anything to talk about or anything in common. Bert:I..I was sitting here thinking if I said hello to you it would turn out we had nothing in common! Hah! But they realise they were wearing the same shoes and socks. When the air stewardess asks them what they would like for dinner: chicken or fish, Bert answers 'Do you have any oatmeal?Oatmeal is the greatest food on earth! It's my all time favourite! The man realised that Bert share the same likes as he does.(He loves oatmeal too!) The man then asks for two bowls of hot water because he had brought along two packets of instant oatmeal. (Talk about oatmeal fanatic!) They start to sing the song: Stick out your hand and say hello! Soon the whole plane starts singing along (there's even a cow on board!).

Big Bird and some children were playing hide-and-seek. They get tired of the game and was thinking of what they should play next when this guy (Jason Alexander) at the bus-stop told them he knows a game called Watch-what-I-do-and-do-it-after-me. He refuses to teach them how to play because he's waiting for a bus that's coming in three minutes and he has an important meeting to attend. Big Bird finally coaxed him to teach them (wonder how come they always relent so easily). The guy start teaching them the actions of the game. You clap your hands and stomp your feet, turn around and touch your toes, reach up high and all fall down. They do it over and over again, each time faster and faster. The guy gets so excited that he misses his bus. To console him, Big Bird suggests he play hide-and-seek with them.

Meanwhile, Gordon makes a fake Slimey (a finger-puppet) and slid it onto his finger. He uses it to teach Natasha how to be gentle with Slimey by doing the 'Nice nice Slimey' thing. Natasha finally learns how to do it. Oscar comes back to see how Gordon practise with Natasha. Baby Natasha shows Oscar by biting 'Slimey' (Gordon's finger). Fearing Slimey's safety, Oscars runs away with Slimey. Oscar:Hey now, I don't want that baby near my worm.

On the Little Blonde Scientist Show, the Little Blonde Scientist (played by Prairie Dawn) demonstrates how air moves things. She have with her some leaves, feathers and a paperbag. A big gust of wind comes along and blows everything away, including Prairie Dawn. She comes back onto the screen looking rather messy and hair all scruffled saying 'Alright, who's doing the wind machine!'

At the playground, Baby Natasha finally learns how to be gentle with Slimey. So Oscar lets Slimey play with her.
