- Oh hi, did you hear Elmo,
Zoe, Rosita, and Grover singing?
- Yeah, we're a singing group.
- (speaking foreign language),
we're a monster singing group.
- And we call ourselves
the Cute and Fuzzy Four.
That is because we are so
obviously cute and fuzzy.
- Yeah, and there are four of us.
One, Elmo.
- Two, Zoe.
- Three, Rosita.
- Four.
- And tonight the Cute and Fuzzy Four
are going to sing at Hooper's Store!
(cheering)
- Nothing will ever break this group up.
- No.
- Nothing ever.
- [Man] Zoe, come on.
We have to visit Aunt
Chloe and Uncle Joey.
- Oh, that's my daddy.
Coming!
- But now we're only one, Elmo.
- Two, Rosita.
- Three.
- The Cute and Fuzzy Three.
- [Woman] Rosita, (speaking
foreign language).
- I have to help my mommy with dinner.
(speaking foreign language)
- Now we're only one, Elmo.
- Two.
- The Cute and Fuzzy Two.
Grover?
Grover doesn't have to go somewhere
with Grover's mommy or daddy, does Grover?
- No, of course not, little Elmo.
- Oh good.
- I have to go work at
Charlie's Restaurant.
See ya.
- But wait, Grover!
Oh, now there's only one.
The Cute and Fuzzy One.
Elmo can't be a band all by himself.
What is Elmo gonna do?
(chattering)
- It was something else.
- It sure was.
- Back in the day.
- Oh yeah, yeah.
- Hey, it's really great
having you with us today, Dad.
- Oh, it's great to be here.
There's nothing I like better
than spending time with
my son and my grandson.
- What should we do?
- I was thinking we could
play a game of chess.
- I don't know, Dad.
How about a game of basketball?
There's nothing better
than a game of basketball.
- I was thinking we should get out
the old fishing poles.
I love fishing.
- Maybe we should try to find something
that we all like to do.
- But like what?
- I'm not really sure.
- I like fishing.
(Elmo sighs)
- Hey, Elmo.
- Oh, hi Gordon.
Hi, Miles.
Hi, Miles' grandpa.
- What's wrong, Elmo?
- Elmo's band broke up
and now Elmo has nobody to sing
with tonight at Hooper's Store.
- Well Elmo, maybe you could
find someone else to sing with.
- Hey, yeah!
That's a great idea, Gordon, but who?
Elmo needs to think.
Think, think, think, think,
think, think, think, think.
(chuckles) Wait a minute.
Isn't Miles in a band?
- I sure am.
- Would Miles like to sing in Elmo's band?
- I would love to, Elmo.
- Oh good!
- But I'm hanging with my
pop and my granddad today.
- Oh.
Uh, okay.
- It's okay, Miles.
We can do something together later.
- Are us you're, Grandpa?
- Absolutely.
You should always take
time to help a friend.
- Thank you, Miles' grandpa!
Miles, let's practice.
- What's the song?
- Elmo calls it the
Wubba, Wubba, Wubba Song.
You know, wubba, wubba,
wubba, wubba, woo, woo, woo.
(chuckles)
- Oh cool, I know that song.
Let's do it.
- Good.
♪ Wubba, wubba, wubba,
wubba, woo, woo, woo ♪
♪ Wubba, wubba, wubba, and a doodly-do ♪
♪ Wubba, wubba, wubba,
you can join in too ♪
♪ Yeah ♪
♪ If you wubba me then I will wubba you. ♪
- Hey, that sounds pretty good.
- Yeah, but when Elmo sang it with
the Cute and Fuzzy Four,
it had a bigger sound.
- Well maybe we need to find a new member.
- Yeah, but who?
Who else can sing in Elmo's band?
Let Elmo think.
Think, think, think, think,
think, think, think (gasps).
Hey, Elmo's got it.
Maybe Gordon can be in the band.
- My dad?
In a band?
No way.
He's not even into music.
- You know, son.
There's something you don't know about me.
- And what's that?
- Well, I used to be in a
band too, just like you.
- No way.
You?
In a band?
Get outta here.
- It's true.
Yeah, way back before you were born
I was in a band with Bob and Luis.
(dreamy music)
We were a 1970s power trio
and we called ourselves
The Electric Three.
- [Elmo] Why were you called
The Electric Three, Gordon?
- [Gordon] 'Cause there were three of us.
- [Elmo] Oh!
- All right, a one.
- Two!
- Three!
- All right, okay, that's a good rehearsal
of the count off, guys.
Now maybe we should practice
the song, all right?
- Oh that's a really cool idea, Gordo.
- Yo, Bob.
What's with the English accent, man?
- Well, all the great
English bands have accents.
You know, English accents.
- Oh cool, man, yeah!
All right.
Well, let's jam, huh?
All right, Luis, you get us started, Luis.
Luis?
Luis?
Luis!
(cymbals clanging)
- Oh man, I'm sorry, man.
It's just that I was thinking
about this groovy chick I met.
Like wow, man.
Her name is Maria, man, you know,
and she can fix anything.
- Oh, that's cool, man.
Yeah, wow.
Well, let's jam, huh?
A one, a two, a one, two, three.
- Totally blows my mind away, man.
You know?
Like I can totally picture us together,
getting married, having a kid.
You know, living on Sesame Street.
Opening a fix-it shop.
Maybe later changing it to a mail-it shop.
Wouldn't that be totally
cool or what, man?
- Yeah, that's cool, but look mate,
I hope this girlfriend Maria
doesn't break up the band.
- Oh no, Bob.
- Never happen, man.
- No, no.
Now let's rock!
- [Bob] All right, all right.
- A one, a two, a one, two, three, four.

No, I don't think so, Elmo.

something you don't know

and English accent Bob?
- No Elmo, but I was a singer.
- Grandpa, you?
- Dad?
- I sure was.
I went by the name of Johnny Uno.
- [Both] Johnny Uno?
- Uno, that means one in Spanish.
- There was only one in
the band and that was me.
I was Johnny Uno (chuckles).
- Wait a minute.
Dad, you were Johnny Uno?

I even had a little bit of a hit song.
- Oh, tell Elmo about it, Miles' grandpa.
- Well, it was in 1955.
I was performing live on
the Sesame Street Bandstand.

- Reporting for duty, sir!
- [Ernie] What?
- Ernie!
What are you doing?
- I'm just playing my bugle, Bert.
- Playing your bugle in
the middle of the night?
- It helps me get sleepy, Bert.
- But you woke me up, Ernie!
- I did?
I'm sorry, Bert.
- Ernie, why don't you
ever just stop and think?
- Stop and think, Bert?
- Yes, stop and think.
Before you play your bugle, stop and think
about what will happen.
- Oh, you mean if I play my bugle
in the middle of the night
I could wake up my old buddy, Bert.
- Yes.
- Oh, okay Bert.
Next time I'll stop and think
before I play my bugle.
- (sighs) Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Good night, Ernie.
- Good night, Bert.
(snoring)
Bert?
I still can't sleep, Bert.

Gee, I guess Bert's already asleep again.
Hmm.
I know what to do that'll

- Ernie!
Ernie, you did it again!
- [Ernie] What was that, Bert?
- You woke me up.
You said you'd stop and think.
- Well, you told me to stop and think
before I played my bugle, Bert.
You didn't say anything
about my drums (hisses).
- (groans) Ernie, stop and think
before you play your
bugle or your drums, okay?
Stop and think before you play anything.
- Okay, Bert.
- [Bert] Good night, Ernie.
- Good night, Bert.
- Good night, Ernie.
- Stop and think.
(sighs) Stop and think.
(snoring)
I can't stop thinking.
I still can't sleep.
I know!
I'll play my drum and my bugle.
That always helps me get to sleep.
Oh, but wait a minute.
Bert said I should stop and think
before I play anything.
Now what will happen if I
play my bugle and my drum?
(dreamy tinkling)
(upbeat music)
If I play my bugle and my drum,
Bert will wake up and he'll be angry.
So I better not play my bugle and my drum.
Wait a minute.
I did it!
I stopped and thought.
Wait 'til I tell Bert!
Hey, Bert!
Bert, wake up, Bert!
Bert! Bert!
- What, what, what?
Ernie?
What now?
- Bert, I did it, Bert!
I stopped and I thought
just like you wanted me to do, Bert.
You see, I didn't play my drum
or my bugle or my drum and my bugle
because if I played my drum and my bugle
I would wake you up, Bert!
(hiss) I did it.
- I'm awake now, Ernie.
- Oh good, Bert.
Now you can watch me stop and think.
Now let me see.
I wanna play my bugle and my drums
but, wait a second, Bert.
Let me stop and think.
If I play my bugle and my drums,
will I wake up my old buddy Bert?
Of course not because
he's already up (hisses).
(upbeat music)
Wow Bert, this stopping and
thinking really works (hisses).
And!

Oh, greetings!
It is I, The Count,
and it is time to answer
that fascinating question,
what is the Sesame Street
number of the day (cackles).
Let's count the bats and find out.
Ah, that's one.
One bat.
Two, two bats.
Three, three fabulous fliers (cackles).
What, nothing?
Nothing happened.
Where's the confetti?
Where's the balloons?
Isn't three the number of the day?
Oh, what?
Oh, we're not finished counting.
Ah ha.
Yes, Sasha.
Where were you, my pet?
Well, nevermind.
You're here now.
Let's keep going.
We had three bats and one
more, Sasha, makes one,
two, three, four all together.
Four batiful beauts.
I mean, four beautiful bats.
The number of the day is four!
(cackles)
(triumphant music)
One, two, three.
Hold still here.
One, two, three, four, no, one, two.
Oh, I go absolutely batty
counting bats (laughs).
One, two, three, four.
No, no, come back here.

Okay, okay.
Dorothy wants to know

Good question, Dorothy.

Mr. Noodle?

Oh, it's Mr. Noodle's brother Mr. Noodle.
His family (chuckles).
Come on down, Mr. Noodle.
Dorothy has a question about families.
(chuckles) Boy, they sure
are glad to see each other.
Mr. Noodles, Dorothy wants to know.
- [Girl] What do you like
to do with your family?
(playful music)
I think they like to dance.
- [Elmo] What kind of dance?
Oh, a jello dance.
- [Girl] That's silly.
- [Elmo] No?
- [Girl] That looks like
a rubber band dance.
- [Elmo] Noodles!
A noodle dance (laughs).
(giggling)
The Noodle family dance.
Let's see it.
- [Girl] The Noodle brothers
can't remember their family dance.
(playful music)
- [Elmo] It's the Noodle family dance.
- [Girl] No.
They're doing different dances.
- [Elmo] Uh oh.
- [Girl] I don't think they can remember.
- [Elmo] Elmo hopes they remember it.
- [Girl] You can't remember.
- Keep practicing, Mr. Noodles.
(chuckles) Dorothy wants
to ask someone else.
What do you like to do with your family?
(dreamy music)
- Dorothy, I love to play
tickle with my mommy.
(laughing)
- Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle.
- Hi, Dorothy.
I like pictures with my family,
my mom, my dad, my
grandma, and my grandpa,
and my twin sisters Nicole and Danielle
and my baby sister Lorraine.
- Dorothy, I like to play
piggy back with my big sister.
- Thanks Dorothy.
Thanks kids.
Now Elmo's going to ask a baby.
(hums)
Hello baby.
Hello baby's mommy.
- Hi Elmo.
- Hi.
Baby (gibberish).
Baby, what do you like
to do with your family?
(laughs) Oh thank you, baby.
(smooching)
Thanks Mommy.
- Thanks Elmo.
(smooching)
- And now Elmo has a question for you.
Oh, it's a family car for clowns.
How many clowns can get into this car?
Let's count them and see.
(upbeat music)
There's one.
(laughs)
- [All] Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Seven.
- Oh, that's a cute baby.
- [All] Eight.
Nine.
- Nine clowns.
Oh, and the family hippo (laughs).
Bye!
Great counting everybody.
Now if clowns have families,
what else can have families?
(dinging)
Elmo will open the drawer and find out.
Yeah.
Torro!
(dramatic music)
You missed Elmo.
(screams)
Can a birthday cake have a family?
- [Children] No.
- [Elmo] But a family
can have a birthday cake.
Can a soccer ball have a family?
- [Children] No.
- [Elmo] But a family
can play soccer together.
Can Super Grover have a family?
- [Children] He has a family.
- [Grover] Mommy!
- [Super Mommy] Sonny!
(shouting and groaning)
- [Elmo] It's his mommy.
- You called, son?
- It's Super Mommy.
(moaning)
(clattering)
(triumphant music)
- (chuckles) Thanks, drawer.
Oh, hi Mr. Noodles.
Did you remember the
Noodle family dance yet?
Oh, well keep trying.
You'll remember.
(playful music)
Uh oh.
Looks like they can't agree.
Oh well.
Families argue sometimes too.
Mr. Noodles!
Keep trying.
(laughs)
Elmo's friend Rena doesn't
have a family dance.
Her family likes to eat together.
They all had lunch for
a Chinese restaurant
for her grandma's birthday
and Rena told Elmo all about it.
- [Rena] We sat at a round table
with the food in the middle
so the whole family could share in it.
As the youngest, I
poured tea for everybody,
my grandma, my grandpa,
my father, my mother,
my uncles and aunts.
Actually, I wasn't the youngest
but babies can't pour tea.
Grandma and Grandpa took the food first
because they are the oldest.
Everyone else waited
until they started to eat
and everyone ate.
The whole family.
Everyone used chop sticks
except for my younger brother,
but I'm teaching him how.
He's learning.
Someday he can teach the baby
and be able to eat long noodles.
We always eat them because
they mean a long life.
They worked for my grandmother.
She is 80.
And we finished with orange slices
which means a sweet life.
And that's what our whole family did
for my grandma's 80th birthday.
I poured the tea and
the food was delicious.
- Elmo loves Rena's family.
Elmo wants to see more
families, all kinds,
but where can Elmo find them?
Hmm.
Elmo knows where!
On the family channel.

Here we go.
Chapter 692.
In a heroically heroic act of heroism,
our hero heroically turned the wheel
and went around the giant space chicken.
And why did Trash Gordon go
around the giant space chicken?
To get to the other side.
(chicken clucking)
Our hero laughed heroically and stated.
- (laughs) Sesame Street has
been brought to you today
by the letter K and by the number four.
(triumphant music)
- More, more!
- No, no, no, no.
That's enough thrills for now, Slimo.
