Picture Segment Description

SCENE 1 Gordon and Susan water the plants on their windowsill. Oscar thinks they're yucky to look at, and tells them to get rid of them. Gordon says it's their window so Oscar doesn't have a choice. Oscar tells Joey that he thinks their flowers are stupid, and he would prefer to have something nice to look at ouside his trash can. He gets inspired when he rummages through some old, rusty tin cans, and starts pitching them onto the street.

SCENE 3 Oscar has now put the tin cans on a nearby tree, which means they won't interfere with foot traffic. Susan argues that the tree isn't Oscar's; it belongs to everybody. Oscar doesn't care, and is especially happy when Gordon suggests that the sound the cans make when the wind blows will keep everybody from sleeping. Oscar remains stubborn, but Susan gets an idea ...

SCENE 4 Susan checks Gordon's Grouch costume, and Gordon makes his way to Oscar's. Pretending to be Isaac the Grouch, Gordon marvels at the "tin can tree" and starts picking some off to keep, which bothers Oscar. Susan explains to "Isaac" that the cans do belong to Oscar, so "Isaac" suggests that Oscar put the cans somewhere where he can look at them real close so no one can take them. Oscar thinks that the crate next to his can is a better place to put them.

SCENE 5 Oscar finishes arranging the tin cans on his crate. The Count shows up and in a slightly echoey voice, he dramatically counts Oscar's two eyes and one mouth, which pesters him. The Count agrees to split if he can count Oscar's cans. He counts all ten of them, re-positioning them as he does so onto Oscar's can lid. When Oscar opens his lid, the tin cans fall on the street, and an annoyed Gordon tells him to pick them up. When no one is looking, the Count does it instead, counting them as he puts them back on the crate. Gordon thanks Oscar for picking them up, but Oscar denies any responsibility.

SCENE 6 Mr. Snuffleupagus has just finished playing with Shola, so he asks Big Bird to fetch a ladder to get her down from atop Snuffy's back. The ladder breaks, so Big Bird looks for help elsewhere. Meanwhile, Snuffy and Shola notice a stack of barrels that can help Shola get down. Big Bird approaches Luis in the Fix-it Shop and asks for help. Luis sees Shola sitting on what Big Bird believes to be Snuffy, as he doesn't see him because of the construction doors. They enter, only to reveal that Snuffy is gone and Shola is sitting on the barrels instead.
