- Hi Abby wanna play with Elmo?
- Oh.
- Well what's wrong?
- Oh Elmo, my wand is in the fix it shop.
An elephant fairy sat on
it and got it all squished.
- Gee that's too bad.
But Abby can still play with Elmo.
- I guess.
But without my wand to do
magic, it won't be much fun.
- Well sure it will,
there's lots of fun things
Abby and Elmo can play
without Abby's wand.
- Yeah?
Like what?
- Like...
Elmo and Abby can imagine
they're monkeys like this.
(imitating a monkey)
(laughing)
- Ah that does look like fun.
Let me try that.
- Okay!
(imitating a monkey)
(Elmo giggling)
What's wrong now Abby?
Didn't Abby like being a monkey?
- Well I sure did but monkeys
like to climb in trees
and if I had my magic
wand, I could wave it
and poof us a nice big
tree to climb and swing in.
But my wand is in the fix it shop!
- But Abby doesn't need a wand for that.
Elmo and Abby can imagine
there's a big tree right here
and pretend to climb it, like this.
Climb, climb, climb, climb, climb.
Oo come on Abby monkey,
climb with monkey Elmo.
- Climb, climb, climb,
climb, climb, climb, climb.
- Now swing.
(Elmo giggling)
- Boy Elmo, this is great.
I just love being an imaginary monkey,
swinging in an imaginary tree.
But you know, swinging
monkeys get mighty hungry
and if I had my magic
wand, I could wave it
and get us some delicious bananas.
But I can't because my
wand is in the fix it shop.
- But Abby doesn't need
Abby's wand for that either.
- You're right Elmo.
- Pretend monkeys can eat
pretend bananas, like this one.
Just peel it.
And eat it.
Om nom nom nom nom.
- Yeah.
Peel it, peel the banana.
Om.
Boy this imaginary banana is so tasty,
Elmo could almost eat the
banana peel too but...
(Elmo giggling)
No Elmo won't do that.
- Oh boy Elmo, I never knew I could
have so much fun without my magic wand.
- Woops!
- Whoa!
Elmo you okay?
- Yeah Elmo just slipped on
an imaginary banana peel.
Woops!
- Woops!
(laughing)
- Woops!
- Woops!
- Woops!
- Woops!
Bubbles beautiful bubbles.
Oh hi Elmo.
- Hi Abby.
- Oh did you see all those
bubbles, they're so enchanting.
- Yeah Elmo saw them.
- I wonder where they came from.
- Well Elmo made them.
- You made them?
How can you make bubbles?
- Well with a wand.
- You mean with a wand like this?
- No a wand like this.
See this is a bubble wand.
- A special wand to make bubbles?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Does Abby wanna try?
- Oh yes I do.
- Oh good, here.
- Let's see.
Bubble, bubble on the double.
Hey it didn't work.
What are the magic words
I need to use Elmo?
- Well it's not that kind of wand Abby.
Abby doesn't need magic
words to make bubbles.
- I don't?
- No.
- What do I need?
- Just this.
- Is that some sort of magic potion?
(Elmo giggling)
- No Abby it's just soapy water.
Just dip the bubble wand
into it to make bubbles.
Here.
- Okay.
Erm nothing happened.
What did I do wrong?
- Well Abby has to blow on the wand.
- Oh blow on it.
Like for luck?
(Elmo giggling)
- No, no, no for air.
Bubbles are filled with air.
- They are?
- Yeah so Abby has to blow air through
the little hole into the
wand to make bubbles.
Ready to try?
- You bet.
- Go for it.
- Okay so I dip,
and blow.
I did it!
I made bubbles.
I can't believe how easy it is.
- Oh yeah.
(Elmo giggling)
Well Abby.
Does Abby know what's almost
as fun as blowing bubbles?
- What?
- Popping bubbles!
- Oh yeah!
Okay get ready for me.
- Okay Elmo's ready.
- Ready?
- Yeah.
Oh yay.
Keep going, keep going.
- [Abby] All right.
- Yes.
(Elmo giggling)

(blowing)
- Wubber, wubber, wubber,
wubber, wubber, bobber.
- What was that?
- Wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber.
(laughing)
- Hey Elmo.
- Wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber.
- Hey Abby.
- What is that you're doing?
- Oh it's called wubber bounce.
- Wubber bounce?
I never heard of that.
- It's a monster game, Elmo plays it
all the time with his monster friends.
- Wubber, wubber, wubber,
wubber, wubber, wubber.
- It looks like fun.
Oh boy I sure do wish I could
play wubber bounce with Elmo.
But I'm not a monster.
But wait a minute.
I can do magic.
Oh boy it works.
I'm a monster!
- Wubber, wubber, wubber,
wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber.
- Oh excuse Elmo but did
monster see where Abby went?
- She's right here.
Elmo it's me, Abby.
- Abby!
But what happened?
- I turned myself into a monster.
- But why?
- Well so I could play wubber bounce too.
Now we can play wubber bounce together,
just like you do with all
your other monster friends.
Come on!
- Wubber, wubber, wubber,
wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber.
What's wrong?
- Well this.
It's all wrong.
Abby doesn't have to be a monster
to wubber bounce with Elmo.
- I don't?
- No, Elmo will wubber
bounce with Abby any time.
- But I thought it was something
that you just do with
your monster friends.
- No, no Elmo will do it with
any friend Elmo wants to.
- Really?
- Really.
Besides, Elmo has lots of monster
friends but only one fairy friend.
Abby and Elmo likes Abby the way she is.
- That's great to hear Elmo
because I do like being a fairy.
And besides, this monster
fur is a little itchy.
- So Abby will turn herself
back into a fairy now?
- Yep faster than you can say...
- Oh yay!
Abby's back to being Abby.
- And this fairy friend can't wait
to wubbber bounce with you.
- Neither can this monster, let's do it.
- [Both] Wubber, wubber,
wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber.
Now we'll do tubber wubber bounce.
- [Both] Wubber, wubber,
wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber.
Are you okay?
- I just wubbered a lot.
- Let's do it.
- [Both] Wubber, wubber,
wubber, wubber, wubber, wubber.
- [Announcer] Get ready for

- Yeah, yeah, yeah Elmo
loves musical chairs.
- The question is, who will

That means one of you will not get
a chair to sit on when the music stops.
- Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh.

Start the music.

Elmo is the winner.
- Oh I didn't survive Telly.
- Me neither.
- [Both] Aw.
- Gee, Elmo doesn't like
that Elmo's friends are sad.
And Elmo's all alone now.
- Yes, yes Elmo.
You survived.
- But Mr Jeff, Elmo
doesn't wanna be alone,
Elmo wants to play with his friends.
- But that's not how we play the game.
There can only be one winner, one
survivor.
- Oh, oh Elmo wants to change the game.
- Change the game?
- Yeah, let's play how many monsters
can sit on a chair together?
- Sounds interesting.
Survivor, sharing the chair.
- Yeah, come on in everybody.
- [Zoe] Yay!
- [Telly] Sharing a chair?
I like that.
- Come on, come on.
- This is exciting.
Three monsters on one chair.
Can they add one more and make
four monsters sharing the chair?
Find out next time on,
survivor sharing the chair.
- I got you Elmo, I got you.
- Somebody's tickling me.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa!
(Elmo giggling)
- Hey Elmo.
- Hi Abby.
- What're you doing
with that stick thingy?
- Oh Elmo's drinking juice.
- Really?
Is it a magic stick?
- No, no it's a straw Abby.
- A straw?
I don't think we have those in Fairy Land.
- Elmo use the straw to drink with.
See, see, watch this.
(sucking)
- Oh, oh, oh.
- Yummy yummy, grape juice.
- Well can I try?
- Oh sure, sure, sure.
Elmo always brings extra straws
just in case someone wants to share.
- Okay.
It's not working for me.
- Oh Abby has to suck on the
straw, like this, like this.
- Oh okay.
I'm getting juice!
- Oh good, good, good.
- It's coming through the straw.
That is magic.
- Cool well let's sip together.
- Okay okay.
- That's it no more juice.
- Oh who, who knew drinking juice
from a straw could be so much fun.
Hey what else can a straw do?
- That's it Abby.
That's all Elmo does with a straw.
- Something as magical as a straw?
It must be good for something else.
What else can we do with it?
- You know, Abby's right.
Let's think, what else
can we do with a straw?
- [Both] Hmm?
- What, what, what?
- I got it, I got it.
We can use the straw to
pretend it's a trumpet.
- Oh good idea.
Yeah.
And march in a parade.
- Oh yeah.
(imitating a trumpet)
- Okay, okay let's think again.
- Yeah what else can a straw do?
Think.
- Oh Elmo knows, Elmo knows.
Elmo could conduct music
with it, like this.
- Da da da ba ba ba ba ba da.
- [Both] Bubbedy bubbedy bubbedy ba aa aa.
- Hey we were conductors.
- Yeah.
- What else can this straw do?
- Think time.
- Oh yeah.
- Oh, oh Elmo knows, Elmo knows.
(Elmo giggling)
Elmo's daddy did this with a straw once.
- What is he doing?
- Ta da!
See a straw can make a triangle.
- Wow.
Straws really are magic.
But you know what I like
to do best with a straw?
- What Abby?
- Drink juice.
- Oh, oh Elmo too, hold on a second.
- Okay.
- See that, come on let's drink.
- All right.
- More grape juice.
- And more straws.
- Yum.
- Yeah.
- Oh hi Abby, hi.
- Hi.
- What's Abby doing?
- Coloring.
- Oh wow it's pretty.
Oh you missed a spot.
Right there, oh see.
Great.
- That's it.
- Oh no more coloring?
- No the paper's full so I guess
I'll just throw it away
and do something else.
- Oh wait, wait, wait, wait, wait Abby.
Can Elmo have the paper now?
- Sure, what're you gonna do with it?
- I'm gonna fold the paper,
here, here, here, here and here.
See, look.
See Elmo can make an airplane.
Watch this, watch this.
Watch this, watch this.
- Oh wow.
- See that, see that?
- You can color a piece of paper
and then make it into a paper airplane.
- Yep, yep, yep.
- I just thought of something else
you could do with a piece of paper.
- What's that Abby?
- Turn it into a pumpkin.
- A pumpkin?
- Lumpkin, fumpin, pumpkin.
See, you can color a piece
of paper and you can make it
into an airplane and you
can turn it into a pumpkin.
- Abby.
Elmo liked the airplane better.
- Yeah it's kinda hard to fly a pumpkin.
Well, I'll turn it back, okay?
- Okay okay
- Rain, Spain, airplane.
- Oh cool.
Come on Abby, let's go fly the airplane.
- Okay.
- Oh hello.
You know what?
Today Elmo's going to
tell you about feelings.
Yeah.
You can be happy.
And Elmo is happy right now, see?
(Elmo giggling)
See, that's happy.
Got that?
Good.
Okay now Elmo will show you
somebody who is sad, yeah.
Oh here comes Zoe, maybe Zoe feels sad.
- La la la la la la la.
- Hey Zoe, Elmo wants to
know, does Zoe feel sad today?
- Oh no Elmo, I feel proud.
- Proud?
- Yeah, you know why I feel proud?
'Cos I put these barrettes
in all by myself, see look.
- Wow, impressive.
- Thanks Elmo bye, bye.
- Bye Zoe.
Gee Zoe feels proud, not sad.
But don't worry, Elmo will
find somebody who's sad, yeah.
Oh, oh, oh that's Burt, that's Burt,
maybe Burt feels sad today,
yeah Elmo will find out.
- [Burt] What am I gonna do?
- Hey Burt, hey Burt.
Is Burt feeling sad today?
- Sad?
- Yeah.
- Sad?
No I am not sad, I am angry Elmo.
I am angry, I just missed
the bus to the international
paperclip lovers convention
and now, now I have to walk.
- Oh well, Burt is angry and Zoe is proud
but don't worry, Elmo will
find somebody who feels sad.
So you know what sad looks like.
Hello?
Anybody sad in the park today?
Anybody sad?
Yoo hoo, sad person please come to Elmo.
Please.
Oh.
- Hi Elmo.
- Hi Big Bird.
- What's the matter?
- Big Bird, Elmo was trying
to show what sad looks like.
Elmo tried and tried but
no matter what Elmo did,
Elmo could not find anybody who feels sad.
- Well, Elmo,
looks to me like you're sad.
- Elmo?
- Sure.
You've been hanging your head down
and you're talking softly,
you look sad to me.
- Hey, Big Bird is right, Elmo is sad.
So you know what sad looks like.
Elmo never knew that being
sad could make Elmo so happy.
Oh thank you Big Bird.
- Anytime Elmo.
(Elmo giggling)
- Oh hi, hi, hi, hi.
Elmo and Abby are going to play.
- Yeah.
- Wait a minute, Elmo feels
like he has a sneeze coming.
Elmo's mommy told Elmo
sneeze into a tissue
but Elmo doesn't have a tissue.
- Oh well don't worry.
You know what, Elmo I'll make you a
tissue as fast as I can with magic.
Gishu, smishu, tissue.
- A noodle?
Abby didn't make a tissue,
Abby made a noodle.
- Oh dear you cannot sneeze into a noodle.
- Yeah yeah but it's okay.
Elmo doesn't feel like
he has to sneeze anymore.
Let's go.
- Okay, okay.
- No, no, no.
Elmo does have to sneeze.
- Okay wait no, I'll get you a
tissue even with even faster magic.
Licku smishu tissue.
- Abby that's a frog.
(ribbiting)
- Oh dear and you can
not sneeze into a frog.
- But it's okay, it's okay because
Elmo doesn't have to sneeze anymore.
Let's go Abby.
- Okay.
- Yes Elmo does.
Elmo's gonna sneeze.
- Wait, wait, wait, wait.
I just remembered, my Mommy
told me that if you don't
have a tissue then you can
sneeze or cough into your elbow.
- Achoo!
(Elmo giggling)
Wow Elmo did it, Elmo covered
his nose with his elbow
when he sneezed, like Abby said, yay!
- My Mommy taught me that trick
and you don't even need magic.
- Cool and now Elmo and
Abby can go and play, bye.
- Bye.
- Ribbit.
(Elmo playing drums)
- Oh he's definitely loud.
- So can Elmo be in a Oscar's band now?
- Hey not so fast.
Takes a lot more than loud
playing to be a grouch drummer.
- Yeah we have to be sure
that you've got rhythm.
- Rhythm.
What's rhythm?
- Oh boy, I was afraid he'd say that.
- Oh rhythm is cinch man.
Listen, you can do this on your drum.
Okay pretend my guitar's
a drum, okay, here we go.
- Oh Elmo will try.
- Okay wow that was good.
Now try this one.
- Okay.
- Whoa how about this one man?
- Okay well Elmo can do most of that.
Okay Elmo go.
- Wow he's really got chops.
- Oo now it's Elmo's turn.
Can Mr Phooey Louie do this?
- Hey I think we've got
ourselves a new drummer.
- Shine, shine, shine, shine.
(imitating a car)
- What was that?
(imitating a car)
- It was Elmo.
I wonder what he's doing.
(imitating a car)
- Hey Elmo, Elmo.
Elmo.
- Hey Abby.
- What are you doing?
- Oh Elmo's pretending to drive a car.
- Oh yay.
- Elmo's too young to drive a real car
so Elmo's pretending to drive a car.
- It sure looks like fun.
- But it is.
Does Abby want to pretend to drive too?
- Oh well I dunno I've
never been in a car before.
- Really?
- As a fairy, if I ever
need to go somewhere
I don't get in a car, I just
poof myself there magically.
(Elmo giggling)
- Well that makes sense Abby.
Elmo could teach Abby
how to pretend to drive.
- I would like that.
- Okay Elmo will show Abby what to do.
Then Abby can try.
But first, most important thing
to do is put on your seat belt.
- What's a seat belt?
- Well it's a strap that
holds you in the seat.
Here's Elmo's seatbelt.
Click.
Okay?
There now it's on, see that?
Next, start the car.
Like this.
(imitating a car)
Then you drive like this.
(imitating a car)
(laughing)
You see that?
- Okay I think I got it.
Okay ready?
First I start the car.
(imitating a car)
- Wait wait Abby.
You forgot the most important part.
- Oh my seatbelt.
- Yes.
- But Elmo do I really need one?
- Well yeah, everybody in
the car needs a seatbelt.
The people in the front
and the people in the back.
Everybody has to buckle up.
- Okay, okay, okay, I got it.
And click.
Okay then I start the car.
(imitating a car)
(laughing)
- See, see that's why Elmo and
Abby don't drive real cars.
- It was a good thing we were wearing our
pretend seat belts in our pretend cars.
- Yeah and the best part is
pretend cars can't get broken.
Wanna drive some more?
- Yeah, yeah.
But don't forget to buckle up.
- Let's do it.
- Okay.
- Click.
- And click.
- Got yours?
- Got mine.
- Okay, here we go.
(imitating a car)
- Oh hi.
Wanna play an imagination game with Elmo?
Oh yay!
Let's imagine Elmo is
different kinds of animals.
Ready?
Here Elmo goes.
Let's see, let's imagine.
Oh Elmo is a kind of bird that swims
and lives where it's very, very cold.
Let's imagine Elmo is,
a penguin.
(Elmo giggling)
Yay!
Look, look, look see?
See penguins have flippers, see that?
Not wings.
And Elmo penguin waddles, like this.
- Waddle, waddle, waddle,
waddle, waddle, waddle, waddle.
(Elmo giggling)
Elmo wants to imagine being
another animal yeah, yeah.
A kind of lizard that can change colors.
Let's imagine Elmo is a
chameleon.
Cool.
Elmo chameleon will
change colors like this.
Pink.
(Elmo giggling)
Purple.
And now light blue.
Look at that, Elmo chameleon
blended into the background.
Elmo chameleon is now camouflaged.
Wow.
Now let's imagine Elmo is a little
animal that squeaks and
likes to eat cheese.
Let's imagine Elmo is a mouse.
- Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak.
- Meow!
- Meow!
- Quick, quick let's stop imagining.
Oh no kitty cat.
Aw.
Boy that was a close one.
(Elmo giggling)
Hi Abby.
- Oh hi Elmo.
And hi to you too.
- Oh yeah hi.
- Abby what are you doing?
- Oh I'm singing to my dolly, Prince.
- Boy that sounds like fun.
Elmo wishes he had a
dolly he could sing with.
- Oh I know what to do, I know what to do.
I will make you a dolly with magic.
- Cool, how?
- Well you know, I'm still learning
but my Mommy's always you
know, waving her wand around
and she says a rhyme and magic happens.
So well I'll just wave my fairy
wand until magic happens to you.
- Okay.
- Okay let me see.
Okay.
Velmo, smelmo, dolly for Elmo.
- Uh oh, that's a pumpkin not a dolly.
- Yeah I know.
I get a lot of pumpkins.
Oh well, better try again.
- Yeah go ahead, go ahead.
- Hey I know.
Will you say it with me this time?
That might help.
- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah sure.
- Okay okay.
Now here's what we're gonna do.
I'll say the magic words first
and then you say them after me.
Ready?
- Ready.
- Okay, velmo, smelmo.
- Now us.
Velmo, smelmo.
- Dolly for Elmo.
- Dolly for Elmo.
Uh oh, er Abby.
That's a marker.
Not a dolly.
- Well maybe I should try a different way.
- Elmo has an idea.
Maybe Abby's fairy wand
didn't hear the magic spell.
Abby should try saying it louder.
- Oh okay.
Will you say it louder with me too?
- Sure, sure.
- All right ready?
- Ready.
- Okay velmo, smelmo!
- Come on do it with Elmo.
Velmo smelmo!
- Dolly for Elmo!
- Come on do it, do it, do it.
Dolly for Elmo!
- Okay do you got that?
- [Elmo] Whoa.
- That's not a dolly, that's a hat.
- Yeah.
- Oh dear.
I better call my mommy on my wand
phone, she always knows what to do.
- Wait, wait, wait Abby.
Elmo has an idea.
Watch this, watch this.
You'll see Abby.
- What is Elmo doing?
- Ta da!
See, see that, that's Mr Pumpkin man.
Oh Elmo made a dolly.
- Wow Elmo, how did you do that?
Magic?
- No, no, no Elmo just took Abby's
magic and put it all together.
- Oh good thinking buddy.
- Thank you.
- Hey let's sing to our dollys.
- Okay.
- Dolly, dolly, dolly, dolly,
dolly, dolly, dolly, dolly.
- Hey Zoe.
Are you sure you don't wanna try again?
- What's the use?
I tried and I tried and I can't
do it Chris, I just can't do it.
- Zoe, what's going on?
- I'll never learn how to ride a scooter.
- [Chris] I think Zoe's feeling
a little frustrated Elmo.
- Boy.
You know, Elmo knows how you feel.
- You do?
- Well sure.
You know, when Elmo was learning,
Elmo got frustrated too.
- You did?
- Yeah but Chris said to
keep trying and trying
and Zoe needs to keep trying too.
- But I did try Elmo.
I can't do it.
- No, no, no it's not
that Zoe can't do it.
Zoe just can't do it yet.
Right Chris.
- Hey right.
- Here.
You'll get it Zoe.
- But wait, what about your turn Elmo?
- Elmo can be patient
and wait for his turn.
- So what do you say Zoe?
- Okay.
- Nice job sharing Elmo.
- Oh thanks Chris.
- Here I go for another try.
Push, put both feet on and whoa!
- Don't give up Zoe.
- I won't Elmo.
Okay push, both feet on and,
oh here I go.
- Wait, wait, wait, I
think she's getting it.
- She got it.
- Zoom!
- Hey Elmo, what ya doing?
- Elmo's trying to throw this ball
right here through the basket up there.
- Oh.
- Yeah, here goes.
Oh no.
- That looks hard.
- Well yeah it's hard because
that basket is so high up.
- Maybe magic can help.
Go, smo, make it low.
(laughing)
Yes!
You did it Elmo.
- Abby that's because
Abby lowered the basket.
It made it easier Elmo
doesn't want it lower,
can Abby please make it high again?
- Okay.
Pock, sock, put it back.
- Here goes again.
Oh no.
Oh boy.
Elmo needs to jump higher.
Where's the ball?
- Oh higher.
Maybe this time I can help.
Bump, thump, make Elmo jump.
- Yay, you made the basket,
you made the basket.
- Bring Elmo down, bring Elmo down.
- Down, smown, bring Elmo to the ground.
Gently.
I forgot to add that.
- Abby Elmo doesn't want a lower basket
or help jumping up to the basket.
Elmo just wants to get the ball
in the basket, all by himself.
Without magic.
- Oh okay but you're having
so much trouble getting it in.
- But that's okay.
Elmo can just keep trying.
- Aw isn't there anything
I can do to help you?
- Yeah Abby can cheer for Elmo.
- Be your cheerleader?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Elmo Elmo Elmo.
- Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
- Hello there.
It is I, your fuzzy and
blue pal Grover here.
To demonstrate the many, many things
you can do with a beach ball.
Yes.
You can talk to it.
Hello there beach ball.
You can hug it.
Aw come here you.
Or you can play catch with it.
But first you need to find
someone to play catch with.
- Hi Grover.
- Ah Elmo, how about a
game of beach ball catch.
Think quick.
- Uh oh.
- Commendable catch Elmo.
- Well thanks but Elmo's Baby
David flew out of Elmo's hands.
- Well where did he go?
Off for a snack perhaps?
- Well he went up but he didn't come down.
- Oh look, there's your
dolly, in the tree.
- -[Elmo] Oh no Baby David is stuck.
- No problem, I can fix this.
Baby David.
Come on down here will you?
Come on please, please get
out of the tree Baby David.
Baby David, down here now!
- Elmo thinks that Baby David needs
help getting out of a tree Grover.
- Perhaps you are right.
- Well how about Elmo and Grover try
to shake Baby David out of the tree?
- I know.
How about we try and shake
him out of the tree, yes?
Shake, shake, shake, shake,
shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
Shaking is not working.
- But Elmo has to get Baby David back.
What're we gonna do Grover?
- How about we play catch?
- Catch?
- To take your mind off
your troubles, look lively.
Woops, I will throw it again.
- Well wait, wait, wait.
Did Grover see that?
The ball hit the tree and
made the tree branches move.
- Very observant Elmo.
And your point is?
- Well maybe Elmo can use the beach ball
to knock Baby David out the tree.
- That is silly.
I am the beach ball expert here
and I tell you there is no way you can
knock Baby David out of
a tree with a beach ball.
(squeaking)
- Hubba wha?
- Oh it worked, it worked.
Oh come here Baby David.
- As I was saying, beach balls.
You can hug them, you
can play catch with them
and you can knock little
dollies out of trees with them.
Right Elmo?
- Right.
- Come here you.
Yeah.
- Oh hi Abby.
- Hiya Elmo.
- Oh does Abby wanna play?
- Oh sure what do you wanna play?
Fairy tag?
Fairy hide and go seek?
- No, no how about space monkeys
from outer space, space,
space, space, space?
- Wow that sounds like fun, okay.
- Okay well Elmo wants to be the monkey.
- The monkey.
Well you know, I've never
actually turned anyone
into a monkey but what the heck I'll try.
Okay, crunky, monkey--
- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
What is Abby doing?
- Well I'm thinking of a spell
to turn you into a monkey.
- Abby Elmo doesn't wanna be
turned into a monkey with magic.
- But how can you be a
monkey without magic?
- Well Elmo can pretend to be a monkey.
- Huh?
- Well Elmo will use Elmo's
imagination, like this.
(imitating a monkey)
- I still don't get it.
You still look like a monster to me.
- That's because Abby has to
imagine Elmo's a monkey too.
Just imagine Elmo has a long monkey tail
and brown fur, monkey fur
and Elmo monkey does this.
(imitating a monkey)
- Oh I think I get it, I'm
imagining it all now Elmo.
- Oh great, great, great, great.
So is Abby going to pretend she's
a monkey, a space monkey too?
- No I think I'm gonna
pretend I'm something else.
- Okay!
(imitating a monkey)
Wait a minute.
Abby, Elmo thought Abby wasn't going
to pretend she's a space monkey.
- I'm not.
I'm pretending to be you, Elmo
pretending to be a space monkey.
- Oh boy.
Abby sure has some imagination.
Oh let's all play space monkey together.
- Space monkeys!
(imitating a monkey)
(laughing)
- Oh hi, guess what?
Elmo and Abby are getting ready
to do some changing magic.
- That's right.
- I am going to teach Elmo how to
change something into something else.
- No, no, no Elmo's going to teach Abby
how to change something
into something else.
- But Elmo, you don't
even have a magic wand.
Or know any magic spell rhymes.
- Oh well Elmo doesn't need any of that.
See this empty milk
carton right here, watch.
- I wonder what Elmo's gonna do.
- Presto chango.
- Oh my goodness that is beautiful.
- Wait, wait, wait there's
more, come on down.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Right here.
- Okay.

Presto chango.
Ta da!
Now the empty can is now a bongo drum.
B b b b bongo!

(laughing)
- That is terrific.
- Oh well that's nothing.
Come over here.
- Oh okay.
- See this empty cereal box?
And one, two, three, four bottle caps?
- Yeah.
- Well.
- I can't wait to see
what he's gonna do now.
- Presto chango.
Ta da!
See, the cereal box and the
bottle caps are now a race car.
- Wow that is amazing!
- Yeah Elmo's mommy calls it recycling.
Yeah, yeah, yeah changing
something old into something new.
Isn't that cool?
- Yeah and to think you made all
those changes without even a magic wand.
- Elmo needs to do Elmo's
changing magic on one more thing.
Can Elmo borrow Abby's wand please?
- Elmo you're not thinking of changing
my wand into something else are you?
- Well sort of but just for a second.
Can Elmo borrow it please, please, please?
- Sure.
- Thank you.
See zooming the race car
around made it get kinda dirty.
So Elmo's going to turn Abby's wand,
presto chango, into a feather duster.
- Oh Elmo you really are magical.
- Thank you.
(Elmo giggling)
- Yeah, yeah some might say
I'm even a hot potato expert.

- Well I was over there
then all of a sudden,
I'm right here, it was a surprise.
- Well did Abby do some magic to get here?
- Yeah I think so.
You see, I touched my
magic wand to my head
like this and said this rhyme.
- Okay.
- Now I'm here but not for long,
unless of course something goes wrong.
And then I poofed.
- Wow Abby disappeared.
(Elmo giggling)
Wow.
- I did it again.
Another surprise.
- Yeah you did.
What else can Abby do with her magic wand?
- Well I can turn things into pumpkins.
Want me to show you?
- Oh sure Abby, but what will
Abby turn into a pumpkin?
- How about that mailbox?
- Oh the mailbox?
Oh cool, go ahead Abby,
turn it into a pumpkin.
- Okay, here goes.
Stumpkin, lumpkin, frumpkin, pumpkin.
- Wow that was great Abby.
Wow.

really, really great, it's the best.
- The best?
Elmo can't wait to see what that is.
- Okay watch.
- Okay.
- My back, it itches
right between the wings.
Oh yeah, it's so great.
- Really?
- Yeah now that's magic.
Hey does your back itch?
- Yeah, yeah it's starting to.
- Here you go, magic wand to the rescue.
Hold still.
Right there.
(Elmo laughing)
- Ah thanks Abby, a little higher.
- A little higher?
- A little lower.
Lower, lower.
Ah yeah that's it.
- Okay my turn now, my turn now.
- Okay.
(laughing)
- It feels good doesn't it?
Here I'll get you again.
- Elmo's turn, Elmo's turn!
Okay, okay here you go.
- Little higher.
Okay right there.
Ah yeah right there.
Right there, ah yeah.
(Elmo laughing)
Thank you, Abby.
- You're welcome Elmo.
- Hey Ben.
- Mhmm?
- Let's eat a pretend healthy snack, okay?
- Mhmm.
- So Elmo has, let's see.
Elmo has a tuna fish sandwich.
What do you have?
- Apple sauce.
- [Elmo] You have apple sauce?
- Mhmm.
- Cool, where is it?
- Right here.
- Oh there it is.
Okay well you eat your apple sauce,
and Elmo will eat his
tuna fish sandwich, okay?
- Mhmm.
- Ooh, Elmo's got crumbs on him.
What else do you have?
- Um, apple.
- Oh yeah, that's a nice apple.
Elmo has a pear.
Ready to eat?
Okay.
Wow, now that's a healthy snack.
(Elmo laughing)
Kiss.
- Okay, now what's the next
thing you do before bed?
- Well, next Elmo always sleeps with
his favorite soft cuddly toy, Baby David.
- Aw.
- Well me too, that's why
I brought this flower pot.
- Abby sleeps with a flower pot?
- No, no, I need this here
pot to put my seeds in.
- Seeds?
- What for?
- Well, to grow a beanstalk.
Whoa.
(Elmo laughing)
- Cool, a beanstalk!
Wow!
- How else can I get to the giant?
- Giant?
- Does Abby mean the giant
from Jack and the Beanstalk?
- Yep, we're good friends.
Are you ready Mr. Giant?
- [Giant] Ready, Abby.
(laughing)
- We play tug of war every
night with a teddy bear
to see who gets to sleep with it.
- You do this every night before bed?
- Uh-huh.
And tonight I'm gonna win.
- [Giant] Oh no you're not.
I am!
- [Abby] No I am!
- [Giant] No I am!
- [Abby] No I am!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
- Hang on you two.
Playing tug of war is not a good way
to calm down before bed.
- It's not?
- No, it gets you too excited.
You need to do something relaxing.
- Oh dear.
Then I guess we better stop.
You can have the bear tonight Mr. Giant.
- [Giant] Okay, thanks Abby.
- Night night.
- [Narrator] One day,
Super Grover was flying
high in the sky over Metro City,
when he heard the familiar
sounds of someone in distress.
- Oh no.
Elmo really wants an apple,
but Elmo can't reach it.
- This looks like a job for Super Grover!
- What's that in the sky?
Is it a bird?
Is it a really big, blue, furry bird?
- [Grover] Whoa!
- It's Super Grover!
- Yes it...
Yes it is I, Super Grover!
And I am here to save the day.
- Yay!
Super Grover is going to help Elmo
get an apple from the tree?
- Yes.
An easy task for a super
monster such as myself.
I will simply use my super voice.
(clears throat)
Yo apple!
We got the hungry monster
down here, come on.
Come on down!
Come on!
Come on, here we go.
Wrong apple gets the worm.
Come on.
- Super Grover, Elmo doesn't
think this is working.
- So it isn't.
But do not worry, I
shall try something else.
- Oh good.
- I shall use my super strength
and shake the apple free.
You might want to stand back.
- Oh, okay.
- Don't want my super
strength to overwhelm you.
Okay, here we go, here we go.
(straining)
Stubborn, huh.
(straining)
- This isn't working either.
Hey, maybe, maybe Elmo
can use something long
to knock an apple out of the tree.
Yeah.
Ah, something like a stick.
- Where'd you go?
Ah.
Tricky.
- Ah!
Oh yay, Elmo's got an apple!
Yay!
- You do?
- Yeah, see.
- Well of course you do.
But do not thank me,
just another job well
done by Super Grover.
Oh, I need a break.
- Would you like to share an apple?
- No thank you, I have my own.
- Mm, good.
Boy, Elmo wishes...
Elmo wishes it was winter
so he could go sledding right now.
- Did you just make a wish?
- Oh hi, Abby.
Yeah, Elmo wants to go sledding, Abby,
but Chris says Elmo has to wait until
the seasons change and it's winter.
- Oh well, you know my mommy
knows an awesome weather spell
that can change the
seasons just like that.
Yeah, if I remember it right, well,
I bet I can make it winter right now.
- Well do it, do it, do it, do it Abby!
Make it winter!
- Okay, okay, let's see.
I just need a couple words
that rhyme with weather,
like say, um.
Ah!
Like leather.
- And feather.
- Ooh that's good.
Okay here we go.
Feather leather, feather leather,
now it's time to change the weather!
- Whoa!
Abby's spell!
It finally worked!
Yay!
(laughing)
- It did, didn't it?
- Yeah.
- Okay here you go!
Come on!
It is freezing out here!
And do you...
Do you see the tree?
Look at the tree.
There are no birds on the tree,
there are no leaves on the tree.
It is definitely winter.
How?
- Wee!
(Elmo laughing)
Elmo loves winter!
Good job, Abby.
- Glad I could help, Elmo.
- Huh.
- Hi Abby.
- Hi Elmo.
- Oh look who's here.
- Oh.
- [Both] Hi.
- Hey, did you ever notice
that Elmo and I are the same?
- What?
Wait, wait, wait.
Abby and Elmo aren't the same, Abby.
We're different.
- Uh, same.
- Different.
- Same.
- Different.
- Same.
- Watch, watch, watch.
If Elmo had pink fur, and fairy wings.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
And ears.
(laughing)
Freckles.
And hair.
Then, Abby and Elmo would be the same.
- Oh wow, that's so magical.
- Yeah, yeah.
But Abby, Elmo doesn't have
fairy hair or fairy freckles,
or fairy ears, or fairy wings.
And Elmo isn't pink, Elmo's red.
(laughing)
- I see what you mean, Elmo.
But there must be some way we're the same.
Hmm.
Wait, I know, I know, Elmo!
- What?
- We both have one, two arms.
- Okay.
One, two arms.
- Yeah yeah.
And one, two hands.
- One, two hands.
- Yeah yeah yeah.
And guess what?
We have one, two eyes.
- Ah.
One, two eyes.
- One nose.
- Nose.
(laughing)
- And one mouth!
- Mouth!
One mouth!
Wow Abby, Abby and Elmo are the same.
- Yep!
And different.
- Cool.
(slow melodic music)
- Ace!
- Oh hi Rabbit.
- Hello Elmo.
- What you doing?
- I'm practicing my tennis swing
so I can win every game I play.
- Every game?
- Yeah sure.
- Really?
Well, well Elmo practices
basketball all the time
but Elmo doesn't win every time.
- What?
That's unthinkable Elmo.
I really, really like to win and I
thought that practice was
the best way to do it.
- Well Rabbit, practice is
fun, it can help you get better
but Elmo thinks that nobody
can win all the time.
Even when Rabbit doesn't win,
Rabbit can still feel
proud when he works hard
and does his best, that
way we all can be winners.
- You know, you're right, thank you Elmo.
- You're welcome Rabbit.
Wow look at this bike, wow.
It's so colorful.
(Elmo giggling)
- Hiya Elmo.
- Hey Abby.
- Wow, what a nice bike.
- Yeah it's cool.
Boy Elmo would love to
go for a ride on it.
- Well why don't ya?
- Oh Elmo's not ready.
- Oh true, you do have to be ready to
ride a bike but I can help you with that.
- What?
Abby can?
- Sure thing.
All it takes is a little magic.
- A helmet?
- Sure, you have to wear a
helmet when you ride a bike.
- Well Elmo knows Abby but...
- Good 'cos it's important to be safe
and now, you're ready to ride.
- No but Abby, Abby
Elmo's still not ready.
- Oh I get it, you wanna be even safer.
- Well no--
- That's a great idea.
- But, whoa.
- There ya go.
Elbow pads, wrist guards
and knee pads.
Now you are much safer so
you can take that ride now!
- But Abby, all this stuff is great
but Elmo's still not
ready to ride that bike.
- Wow you really are serious about safety.
Well don't you worry Elmo,
I know just what to do.
- But, but, but.
Oh no.
- There ya go Elmo, now you're as
safe as you can possibly be.
- Abby.
- Oh yeah you don't have to thank me.
- Abby.
- I am just happy that
I could be the one to--
- Abby, ssh.
Abby, Elmo's not ready to ride that bike!
- How can you say that?
- Because Elmo doesn't know
how to ride a two wheeler.
- You don't?
- No, Elmo can ride a tricycle,
but Elmo hasn't learned
to ride a big bike yet.
That's why Elmo's not ready to ride.
(laughing)
- Oh boy.
(Elmo giggling)
I'm sorry Elmo.
- Oh it's okay.
Elmo wants to ride a
bike like that someday
but right now, Elmo will
ride his tricycle instead.
- Well that sounds like a good idea.
- Yeah.
- And hey, at least you
got your safety gear on,
you're protected so you're
ready to ride your tri.
- Yeah.
- See ya Elmo.
- Oh bye Abby, bye.
Oh no.
Elmo's too protected,
Elmo can't ride like this.
Abby come back!
Elmo's not ready to ride.
Whoa!
Elmo's okay, Elmo's protected.
Hi.
Elmo's gonna show all the ways that
Elmo is just the same
as Miss Chicken here.
(clucking)
Oh and that's the first one, clucking.
(clucking)
Well Elmo talks and chickens can't talk
so that's different but Elmo
can cluck just like a chicken.
Watch this.
(Elmo clucking)
Almost the same huh?
(clucking)
Ah good point.
Mrs. Chicken has wings and Elmo has arms,
which is different but Elmo can flap
Elmo's arm like they
were wings, like this.
Flap, flap, flap, flap,
flap, flap, flap, flap.
How about that?
Just the same as a chicken huh?
(clucking)
A ha, another thing that is the same.
(clucking)
Mrs. Chicken breathes and
Elmo breathes too, like this.
(breathing deeply)
Boy, Mrs. Chicken didn't know,
we're the same in so many ways, huh?
(clucking)
Wow, Mrs. Chicken got Elmo with that one,
'cos Elmo can't lay an egg.
So that is really, really different.
But, sometimes it's great to be the same
and it's great to be different.
So let's celebrate being
both the same and different.
(clucking)
Okay, Mrs. Chicken, did
you know the funky chicken?
(clucking)
(funky music)
Then let's do it!
Okay.
Double time.
Snake!
Ready?
(laughing)
Ooh pretty flowers.
Wow.
Wow, what a great stick!
Wow, it's really cool.
Looks like it's a perfect
stick for playing stick ball.
Let's see.
Swing.
Yep, perfect.
Now all Elmo needs is a ball.
Elmo will leave it right here.
(gasping)
- Wow!
Look at this stick!
It's beautiful!
You know what this stick
would be perfect for?
Leading a parade!
(humming)
- Gonna get the stick.
Oh no, Abby's got the stick, Elmo's stick.
What should Elmo do?
Elmo wants to play with it.
Boy.
Maybe, Elmo could just take it from Abby.
Hmm.
Elmo's stick!
- No, it's mine!
- It's Elmo's stick!
- No, it's mine!
- Elmo doesn't want that to happen.
Oh boy.
Maybe Elmo should just
let Abby have the stick.
But that would make Elmo too sad.
Elmo really loves that stick.
But Abby's Elmo's friend.
Maybe Elmo should just
talk to Abby about it.
- Talk to me about what?
- Oh, um.
About the stick, Abby.
- Oh yeah, isn't it great?
I just found it laying here.
- That's 'cos Elmo left it there.
- Oh.
Oh you mean this is your stick?
- Well Elmo found it on the ground,
but Elmo was going to
play stick ball with it.
Elmo just left to get a ball.
- Oh, well, I guess since
you had it first then,
well, here you go.
- Ah thanks Abby.
- See you later.
- Wait, wait, wait!
Does Abby wanna play stick ball with Elmo?
- Stick ball?
- Well yeah, we could take turns
hitting the ball with the stick.
- Oh well yeah!
That does sound like fun.
- Great.
And then maybe later Elmo and Abby
could play parade with the stick.
You wanna do that?
- Yeah that would be great!
And then maybe later we could, um,
I don't know, maybe we
could play um, oh limbo!
- [Elmo] Oh limbo's a good idea!
- [Abby] Yeah, I like that.
- [Elmo] How about playing
pirates with the stick?
- Pirates would be great.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
Ooh, oh hi.
I was just doing my fairy exercises.
One, two, three, four.
Gotta keep my wings healthy and strong.
One, two, three, four.
Hey, do you wanna do 'em with me?
Well if you don't have wings,
just flap your arms, okay?
Here we go.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
(drumming)
Wait, where was I, now where was I?
One, two, three...
Um, uh, okay.
One, two, three, f...
(drumming)
Oh!
Elmo!
Elmo!
Elmo!
- Oh.
(laughing)
Hi Abby.
Hi.
- Oh hi Elmo.
Look, I was just doing my fairy exercises.
- Oh that's nice.
- Whoa, wait!
The only problem is I can't do them
while you're playing your drums.
- What does, what does Elmo's drum
have to do with Abby's exercising?
- Well you see, when I
exercise I go like this.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
- Uh, huh.
- Yeah but then when you play the drums.
- Oh Elmo goes like this.
(drumming)
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Like that?
- And it's really loud and fast and,
well I lose my counting
and I get all confused.
- Oh well sorry Abby but
Elmo really, really needs
to practice on Elmo's drums
to get better and better.
- Yeah but Elmo I really,
really need to do my
fairy exercises to get
stronger and stronger.
- So what should Abby and Elmo do?
- Oh well you could
stop playing the drums.
- Or Abby could stop doing her exercises.
- But I don't wanna stop.
- Oh boy Elmo doesn't either.
- Oh dear, this is a big problem.
- Yeah Elmo and Abby can't both do
what we wanna do at the same time.
- Wait a minute!
Well maybe we can.
- How?
- We can cooperate.
Okay can you play your drum like this?
One, two, three, four.
One two, three, four.
- Elmo will try.
(drumming)
Yeah, yeah that's it.
Okay and I'll keep exercising.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
Come on everybody.
One, two, three, four.
It's working.
- Yeah oo cooperation is fun.
Who knew?
- One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.
- Hey ya!
Ah!
Ah, ah!
Who put all these vines in this jungle?
Do not worry Elmo, I will get us through.
You are welcome.
Oh hello there, it is I your
duty free explorer Grover.
- Oh and Elmo is explorer Elmo.
- Yes and today we are
looking for a pyramid.
Yes the Great Pyramid of Squeezer.
(laughing)
- Yeah and Elmo's got a model
of a pyramid right here.
See, this is a pyramid.
- Yes, yes but we are not
looking for just any pyramid.
We are looking for the
Great Pyramid of Squeezer.
- Grover, Grover, Grover.
Elmo and Grover can use the model,
the model to know what
shape we're looking for.
- We do not need a model.
I am a shape expert.
I know exactly what a pyramid looks like.
Now, let's find that pyramid!
(Elmo giggling)
- Okay.
- Someone really needs
to sweep up around here.
A ha!
I have found it, the
Great Pyramid of Squeezer.
Selfie.
- Grover, Grover, Grover.
Elmo's not sure that
that shape is a pyramid.
- How can you say that?
I just took a selfie.
- But Grover look at the model.
See that shape there doesn't
look anything like a pyramid.
- No?
- No.
The pyramid here has
flat sides called faces
and that shape there, that
shape is round all over
and shaped like a ball.
- Well if this is not a
pyramid, what shape is it?
(monkey ooing)
- That's a sphere!
(Elmo giggling)
- You know, something tells
me that this is a sphere.
- The monkey told Grover that.
- It does not matter, the point is
we must keep looking for a pyramid.
- Yes a pyramid.
- Come along!
- Okay.
(groaning)
- Where did I put that tennis racquet?
I have found it.
(Elmo giggling)
The Great Pyramid of Squeezer!
Selfie.
- Grover, Elmo doesn't think that
that shape is a pyramid either.
- But I already took another selfie.
And I posted it.
And besides, this shape has flat faces
so it must be a pyramid.
- Well Grover's right
that it has flat faces.
But look, a pyramid has
faces that are triangles.
And that shape there has square faces
and is shaped like a box.
- Right, right.
I do not see where you
are going with this.
- Elmo doesn't think it's a pyramid.
- But if it is not a
pyramid, what shape is it?
(squawking)
- That's a cube.
(Elmo giggling)
- Wait a minute.
My explorer sense tells me this is a cube!
- The parrot just told you that!
- Does not matter, what matters is
I will never find the Great Pyramid.
- Oh Grover.
- I am going home and I'm
deleting all these selfies too.
- Oh boy.
- [Grover] Whoa!
- Oh Grover are you okay?
Grover, Grover, Grover, are you okay?
- Who put this in the
middle of the jungle?
(Elmo giggling)
- Explorer Grover look!
Elmo thinks you've found it.
- What this old thing?
It is just a big stone object with
slopey faces of some sort.
- Yeah but look, look, look.
That shape has triangle faces.
It looks exactly like Elmo's model.
You know what that means!
- They're twinsies?
- No!
It means it's a pyramid.
(Grover gasping)
- Oh boy, oh boy, a pyramid!
I have found a Great Pyramid of Squeezer!
- Yay!
- Selfie!
(laughing)
- Grover, Grover.
Elmo has just one question.
- What is that?
- Why is it called the
Great Pyramid of Squeezer?
- Because I like hugs.
- Well then, let's give this
pyramid a squeezer, huh?
- Squeezer!
- Squeezer!
Oh you know, you are
indeed a great pyramid.
And I am a great explorer.
- Well, pretty great.
Just keep hugging me.
(Elmo laughing)
- Oh, hi Abby.
Elmo's ready for our picnic.
- Hurry Elmo, help me
hold this picnic basket.
- Hold the basket, why?
- Because I can't keep it still.
- Abby, the picnic basket is hopping.
- I know, grab it!
- Okay.
Why is the basket hopping?
- I don't know!
- Did Abby's mommy pack
something for lunch that hops?
- Well I don't know, let's see.
Well she packed peanut butter sandwiches.
- Peanut butter sandwiches?
They don't hop.
- I know, so it's not the
peanut butter sandwiches.
- Well what else did Abby's mommy pack?
- Um, well, apple juice.
- Apple juice?
Apple juice can't hop.
- Well so it's not the apple juice.
- What else?
- Um, well carrots.
Oh, quick!
- Come back, picnic basket!
- Elmo.
- What?
- Do you hear that?
(crunching)
- It sounds like crunching.
- Crunching carrots.
- And it's coming from
inside the picnic basket.
- Yeah.
That means that there's
someone inside the basket
eating our carrots!
- Someone who hops.
- And likes carrots.
- Is Abby thinking what Elmo's thinking?
- [Both] A rabbit!
- Thanks for the carrots.
Nutritious and tasty too.
- It was a rabbit making that basket hop.
- Hasta la vista!
- Amazing!
Can Elmo and Abby have those
peanut butter sandwiches now?
- Yeah, I'm hungry.
- Elmo too.
- Ooh, my.
- One more heart, and there.
Elmo's card is all done.
- It looks great, Elmo, so shiny.
- Thanks Rosita.
Boy, Elmo's so happy, 'cos now,
Elmo can finally give this
very, very, super special
surprise card to someone
Elmo really loves.
(wind blowing)
(upbeat playful music)
- Oh no!
- Elmo's card, oh no!
- Come on special card!
- Elmo's card!
- [Rosita] Get it, get it!
- Oh oh oh, oh no, the wind blew it away.
- Don't worry, Elmo, I'll help you get it.
- Elmo's gonna be so sad if
he doesn't get his card back.
- Oh.
Why won't you jump, rope?
(sighing)
- Hi Abby.
Abby, why is Abby sad like this?
(sighing)
- I can't get this jump
rope to work, Elmo.
I keep trying and trying
and it's very, very...
Oh, what's the word?
- Frustrating?
- Yeah, frustrating.
- Well it's okay, Abby.
Elmo gets frustrated when
Elmo can't do something, too.
- You do?
- Sure!
Everybody gets frustrated sometimes,
even monsters and fairies.
- Well I'm a fairy who's
very frustrated now.
- Well maybe Elmo can show
Abby how to jump rope.
- That would be super, Elmo!
- Ready?
- Yeah, yeah.
(laughing)
- Oh boy.
Why won't you jump rope?
- Elmo, are you getting frustrated?
- Elmo sure is.
- Yeah.
Well it's okay.
You know, everyone gets
frustrated sometimes,
even fairies and monsters.
- That sounds familiar.
(laughing)
- But now we're both frustrated.
- Yeah, we sure are.
But what should Abby and Elmo do?
- I don't know, but it's very frustrating!
- Hey, wait, wait, wait!
Do that again, Abby.
- It's very frustrating.
- Hey!
Maybe Elmo and Abby can't
jump with the rope yet,
but we can jump without the rope.
- Great idea, Elmo!
I love to jump!
- Later for you, rope.
Let's jump!
Come on!
- Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump.
- Boy, Elmo's not frustrated now.
- Me neither.
- Yeah, jump, jump, jump, jump,
jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump.
- Hi.
Hey you see Elmo playing over there?
I am gonna top toe up
to him and surprise him.
Hey you all know what a surprise is right?
Well just in case you
don't, I will tell ya.
Surprise is how you feel when
something you aren't expecting happens.
When you're surprised who
just, kinda like this.
(laughing)
And your face kinda goes like this.
Yeah like that.
And sometimes when you're surprised
you make a sounds like this, huh!
A surprise sound can be even louder,
but I'm not gonna do that
because Elmo might hear
me and look this way.
(laughing)
Then he wouldn't be surprised.
So now I'm going to
quietly top toe up to Elmo
then I'll reach out my hand
and tap him on the shoulder.
Tap, tap, tap.
And then I'll say--
- Surprise!
- Oh, oh, oh!
(laughing)
Elmo, Elmo.
I was gonna surprise you
and you surprised me.
- Yeah Elmo surprised you.
(laughing)
Telly sure was surprised.
- Oh yeah.
(laughing)
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Oh Abby and Elmo are going to
show you how to brush your teeth.
- Yeah but Elmo.
- What?
- I don't have any teeth, see?
Ahh.
- Oh wait a minute, neither does Elmo.
Ah!
- Ah!
- Ah!
- Ah!
(laughing)
- No.
- Oh Elmo, how're we gonna show how
to brush teeth if we don't have any teeth?
Magic?
- No, no, not magic Abby, we can imagine
we have teeth and pretend to brush them.
- Okay, I'm imagining I have teeth.
- So is Elmo.
Now let's pretend to brush them
with our imaginary toothbrush.
- Oh, okay.
All right now what do we do Elmo?
- Well we put imaginary
toothpaste, like this.
We put imaginary toothpaste
on our toothbrush.
Squeeze, squeeze but just a little.
Squeeze, squeeze.
- Squeeze, squeeze, okay.
- Okay.
Now brush.
- Okay.
- Up and down, up and
down and round and round
and round and round, up
and down, up and down--
- Down around and round.
- Oh make sure you get every tooth.
Front and back.
- Okay, every tooth, front
and back, front and back.
- Time to rinse.
- Huh?
Okay, oh Abby, do you have
your imaginary cup of water?
- Oh yeah, sure do.
- Good.
- Let's rinse.
- Okay.
(gargling)
(spitting)
Again!
(gargling)
(spitting)
(laughing)
- Oh Elmo let's brush again.
- Okay Abby.
- Brush, brush brush, brush, brush, ah!
- You know what?
Pretending is magic.
- Yeah.
Brush, brush, brush,
brush, brush, brush, brush.
Come on Zoe, come on!
Wow, look Zoe a toy car.
Elmo loves playing with a toy car.

looking for a friend
Elmo can play with.
- Oh oh oh, I can help you with that.
- Oh good!
- I can bring you a friend
to play with with magic.
I'll just wave my magic wand
and poof, a friend will appear.
- Yeah but Abby, Elmo thought maybe--
- Well no it's okay pal.
I tell you what, how about
your pet fish, Dorothy, huh?
You like to play with Dorothy, right?
- Yeah yeah Elmo loves
to play with Dorothy,
but Abby--
- All right, gishy,
mishy, Dorothy the fishy!
Yay I did it!
- Um, Abby, Abby.
Um, um, this is a fish bowl
but that's not Dorothy.
That's a pumpkin.
(Elmo laughing)
- Oh no, I made a pumpkin
instead of a fish.
- But that's okay Abby,
it's okay, because Elmo--
- Because I can try again!
I'll make a different friend
appear for you to play with.
- But Abby you--
- How about your friend Bert?
You like Bert, right?
- Well sure, Elmo loves Bert, Abby, but--
- Well I shall just wave my
wand and make him appear.
Okay, schmert, gazert, Bert.
(Elmo laughing)
- Boy, Elmo doesn't think
this looks like Bert, Abby.
Elmo thinks it's a pumpkin
with Bert's hairstyle.
(Elmo laughing)
- Oh I tried, I tried to bring you
a friend to play with,
Elmo, two hold times.
But my magic didn't work.
All I got was pumpkins.
Pumpkins, pumpkins, pumpkins.
- But, but, but Abby did bring a friend
for Elmo to play with.
- I did?
Who?
- Abby!
Abby's Elmo's friend.
Abby can play with Elmo.
- Oh yeah.
Was that magic?
- It's magic to Elmo.
Let's play!
Tag, you're it!
- Oh I'm gonna get you!
(playful music)
Hey you come back here!
Oh hi.
Boy, Elmo's so thirsty.
Very thirsty.
It sure is good that Elmo has a cup
of nice cold water to drink.
- Help!
Help!
Oh my goodness.
Does anybody have any water?
Water!
- Elmo has some water.
Why, why Abby?
- Oh Elmo, for my plant.
Look.
- [Elmo] Whoa, Abby's
plant looks sad and droopy.
- Yeah that's because it's thirsty.
It needs water!
- Uh-oh.
Elmo's thirsty too, very thirsty.
- Wait!
If you drink that water,
then my plant will
still be all sad and droopy.
- But Abby, if Elmo gives
your plant the water,
then Elmo will still
be very, very thirsty.
- Oh boy, this is terrible.
- Yeah.
- [Both] What are we gonna do?
- Abby, Abby!
Elmo has an idea!
What if Elmo just takes a
little drink of water like this?
And then, look look look.
Watch, watch.
- [Abby] Then you can give my
plant a little drink of water.
Oh.
- Yep.
- Oh look, look Elmo!
My plant's feeling better already.
- Wow!
And there's still water left.
Elmo can drink some more, okay?
- Okay.
And then give my plant a little more?
- Yeah, yeah, okay.
There.
- Oh boy!
- Elmo and the plant are taking turns.
- Uh-huh, and sharing!
- Oh!
Boy, Elmo never shared
with a plant before.
- This plant never shared
with a monster before.
Little more.
- [Elmo] Oh!
- [Abby] Elmo, look.
My plant, it's all better.
- Wow, and Elmo's not thirsty anymore.
That was plenty of water for everybody!
- Yeah!
- Yay!
- Woo hoo!
- And Abby and Elmo figured it out
all by ourselves.
- All by ourselves.
With a little help by your plant.
- Yeah, you're a good plant.
- Really great.
