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.

They crouch past the Hooper's window to avoid being seen, and pass by Mr. Hooper with his nose in a book. By the time they reach Big Bird's nest, they erupt with laughter over how well it went (even though they've noisily knocked over a trash can). Snuffy goes home, when the adults come by asking what's the deal with the loud laughter. "They'll never know," Big Bird quips to the camera.
