Picture Segment Description

SCENE 1 Herry Monster tries to get the attention of Gordon, Luis, and Susan as he lifts his barbell, but they’re either busy or have seen him do that already. He gathers their attention by announcing that he's going to lift up 123 Sesame Street, but isn't able to do so. He breaks down in tears believing that no one will like him if he can’t lift heavy things. Luis and Susan reassure him that they like him just for who he is, and that he would be liked even if he could only lift a piece of paper. Gordon arrives having just fixed a tricycle for Corey and Todd, and Herry gives him the same speech on not pushing himself too hard for others.
