SCENE 1 Gordon is about to move some suitcases into the garage when he notices that it could use a new coat of paint. Mr. Hooper agrees, but says it will have to wait, because he is too busy with the store right now to paint it. Gordon says he will paint it, after all it is his garage. Mr. Hooper tells him to go look at his deed — the garage goes with the store, not with 123 Sesame Street. The two get into a heated argument until Gordon decides to leave to get a third party's opinion.
