Picture	Segment	Description
	COLD OPEN	My Favorite Sesame Street Moments Elizabeth Shehane talks about her love for Sesame Street music.
	SCENE	At the park, Elmo begins welcoming the viewer, but is then tackled by Zoe, who’s been practicing a dance Rocco made up, which Elmo finds hard to believe. Zoe shows Elmo the first part of the dance, which hooks him in. However, Rocco doesn’t believe Elmo can do it, so Elmo proves it by doing the dance with Zoe. However, after they dance, the rock criticizes Elmo’s “doty, doty doty”’s and reveals there’s more to the dance.
	SCENE cont'd	For the next part, Zoe yells for everyone to grab their elephants, but Elmo doesn’t know where to find one, until The Elephant dances in and gladly participates, having a life-long dream of dancing like Rocco. However, during the “Shoobie, Doobie Doo” part, the elephant knocks Elmo over. Elmo tries switching places with Zoe, but still gets pummeled and criticized by Rocco.
	SCENE cont'd	For the next part, Zoe claims it’s time to tango with chickens. A pair of fowls barge in and begin the tango, with Elmo’s partner dropping him on the dip. Zoe claims the dance is over, which Elmo makes him excited at first, but then pretends to be sad for Zoe and wishes there was more. He then “hears” Rocco tell him there’s still another part of the dance, this one involving pigs. Zoe doesn’t know where they’d find pigs, until Rocco gives them and idea...
	SCENE cont'd	They head over to Oscar’s can. He refuses to let them dance in his trash can, but changes his mind when he hears there’s a pig involved. Inside the can, they struggle to find the pig and begin dancing, then launch themselves out via his trampoline.
	SCENE cont'd	Gordon rushes over to make sure the kids are all right. Much like Elmo’s reaction earlier, Gordon is surprised Rocco can dance. They show Gordon the dance, but he becomes shocked when a herd of elephants head over for the “elephant” portion of the dance.
