SCENE 1 David arrives for work at Hooper's Store, but doesn't see Mr. Hooper around. He finally sees him out in the yard with some reading materials, but Mr. Hooper tries to keep them hidden. He does the same when Big Bird arrives before finally admitting the truth. As a youth, he never graduated from high school due to having to work, and he's now taken up night courses to earn his diploma, though he feels foolish being such an old student. Contrary to his belief, David and Big Bird are very proud and supportive of him.
