[[Big Bird]] and [[Elmo]] play a game of hide-and-seek. Elmo hides under the stairs at the arbor area, but Big Bird has trouble finding Elmo. Elmo eventually gets tired of waiting, stating that this is the worlds longest-ever game of hide and seek, and [[Telly Monster]], as a "Monster on the Spot" news reporter, covers this game. Big Bird looks practically everywhere else, even [[Alaska]], but it takes a long time for him to finally find Elmo.
