- Well, a president does need

Carry on, President Elmo.
- So now, what should
President Elmo do first?
What do you think First...
First Lady?
(dramatic music)
The first lady is gone!
Oh, and so is the picture
of the first president.
Did you see where the
went sheepret service?
Hey, where did the first sheep go?
What's going on here?
(phone ringing)
- Yes.
Sir, it's the Pentagon.
- The Pentagon, what is it?
- It's a shape with five
sides and five angles.
But that's not important right now.
- Hello.
- Mr. President.
This is the Pentagon.
It seems that we have a
problem of the first order.
- Well, what's the problem?
- The first order, sir.
Someone is stealing all
the firsts everywhere.
- Well, who would do such a thing?
- We have no clues yet sir.
But when we do you'll
be the first to know.
- Oh boy, we have to figure this out.
(peppy music)
Sheepret service.
- Yes sir.
- Okay now, President
Elmo is ready to catch
whoever's taking all the firsts.
- By dressing like the number one, sir?
- Yes.
One is the first of all the numbers.
So when the thief comes for number one
you jump out and get him.
- Yes sir.
- Now send in the other
numbers and go hide.
- You got it, Mr. President.
- Good.
- Move, move, move, move, move.
- Now, to put Elmo's
presidential plan into action.
Well as anyone can see, number
one is the first number.
Got it?
One is first.
First, first, first!
- Not for long.
- What?
- You're coming with me.
- That's what you think.
(grunting)
Get it.
- We got her Mr. President.
- Very good.
- Hey.
You're President Elmo.
Not the number one.
- Yeah, and you're number two.
You were the thief all along.
- That's right, I stole all the firsts.
- But why?
- I'll never tell you.
- Try being third, or fourth, or 5,167.
- For once in my life I
want to come in first!
- Well, okay.
- Excuse me?
- Well, two can be first.
- You can do that?
- Elmo's the president.
Let's try it.
- Yes, finally my chance has come.

Wait a minute.
- What?
- That doesn't sound right.
Two, one, three?
That's just confusing.
- Well 'cause you're out of order, two.
It mixes everything up.
- Hm, I see what you mean.
Now I'm having second thoughts.
- Well as president, Elmo needs
to keep the country in order.
And there can't be order
without two in second place.
- You're right.
