Picture Segment Description

COLD OPEN Gordon asks Telly to go into the basement of 123 Sesame Street and find a trunk, which has an old baseball mitt that Telly can use for a game later. Telly hesitates, thinking he should bring some things with him during his trip, and goes off.

SCENE 1 Telly orders a band-aid from Hooper's Store. He explains to Gina that he might step on a splinter on the stairs, so he's bringing some tweezers, boo-boo cream, and needs a bandage to complete his kit. Gina tries to talk him out of it when Telly realizes having a pair of boots would work better and leaves.
