Gina is approached by a man waiting for his student to arrive. He introduces himself as Professor Huggins (played by an on-screen Jerry Nelson), of the Professor Huggins Traveling School of Nice, where he teaches his students how to be nice. Grundgetta, his student, finally arrives. She explains it's Oscar's birthday today and she's going to surprise him by acting nice, which will make him angry ("The perfect gift for the Grouch who has everything."). He starts off the lesson with some nice music for them to listen to...the Sesame Street Theme. Grundgetta runs off in agony. | |
