SCENE 2 | Big Bird helps Osgood polish some of Oscar's trash before heading off to shop. The can area is looking much tidier - trash neatly packed in boxes, cans polished, and Slimey is taking a bubble bath. Osgood discourages the others from tossing their trash into the can, citing their dismal look, and suggests they pack the trash in some boxes instead. He also prevents anyone from using the steps of 123 Sesame Street for the time being - he's just waxed them. The adults see things are no less difficult without Oscar around. |
