Picture Segment Description
1060a
SCENE 1 Maria notices an angry Olivia throw a bag of trash on top of Oscar's trash can as she rushes off. Maria wonders why she is so upset, and Oscar proposes the way to figure it out is through "trashology": looking through her trash for clues, likening it to how one gets their palm or tea leaves read. Oscar deduces from the bag's contents that Olivia had knocked over her alarm clock and busted it, her Polaroid photographs came out overexposed, and she had burned her bread in the toaster. Maria takes the broken clock to repair in order to cheer Olivia up, while Oscar considers putting the pictures up in his mud room.

He put the milk in the soda bottle, and the soda into the fishbowl, and the fish in Bert's cowboy hat. Bert asks, "Now what am I gonna wear when I wanna play cowboy?"
