 | | Ruthie walks out onto Sesame Street from the Subway Station on her way to Finders Keepers. Several monsters are buzzing about, chanting "Moon." Telly explains to Ruthie that they're all getting ready for the Monster Moon Watch, an annual event scheduled for that night on the rooftops. It's being held on Sesame Street this year in honor of Slimey the Worm, who is currently on a long trip to the moon. Telly leaves to find his tuba so he can play the Monster Moon Tune, while Mimsy asks Ruthie if she's the moon. |

Miles goes to get the telescope ready as Gordon prepares to make some sandwiches. |

Ernie tells The Count that he can count sheep to get to sleep, but it never dawned on Ernie that the Count never gets tired of counting. He stays up all night counting sheep, to Ernie's detriment. |

 | | Miles and Gordon are on the roof enjoying their quiet time together. Abruptly, Ruthie and the monsters barge through the door chanting "moon, moon" and Mindy thinks Gordon's head is the moon. Telly leads the group in a rendition of the Monster Moon Tune. Mile sand Gordon identify the letter C and the number 13 as constellations, which they figure must mean that they've sponsored the episode. In closing, they wonder where Slimey is by now, figuring it's someplace at least a lot quieter. |
