SCENE The camera zooms in on a ball lying on the ground in the yard. Elmo and Zoe both welcome the viewer to Sesame Street and see the ball. The two of them quickly start fighting over it. Elmo says the ball is his because he got to it first, while Zoe claims she saw it first, so it's hers. They launch into a song, both insisting, "It's Mine!"

SCENE, cont'd Luis enters the scene, and Elmo and Zoe explain their situation, which turns into a brief reprise of the song. Luis helps them realize that neither of them are having fun with the ball by fighting, and suggests that they share it. Zoe and Elmo take turns having the ball, but they learn that just taking turns isn't fun either. Luis gets them to think of a more fun activity to do with the ball: play catch. The two decide to take the ball to the park.

He also shows that he marked the bottom of the ball with a letter "B" for "Baby Bear."

SCENE, cont'd Baby Bear invites Zoe and Elmo to play Porridge Ball. A Bear family favorite, Porridge Ball is a game where the person who throws the ball yells, "Porridge!" and then the catcher yells, "Porridge!" also. They play their first round successfully, but Zoe forgets to say porridge on her second try. Rather than being out of the game, she now has to say porridge twice rather than once.

SCENE, cont'd Suddenly, a woman comes by and is relieved to see the ball they're playing with. She introduces herself as Cinderella's Fairy Godmother and reveals that the ball is actually Cinderella.

Muppets Global Grover: Grover arrives wearing an Indian vest and holding an Indian board game called Carrom. He has just come from Queens, where he was visiting his Indian-American friend. In the film clip, James talks about how great it is to be Indian-American, because he gets to learn about things from two different places. In addition to playing baseball, he likes to sing Indian music, read Indian stories, play Indian games, and eat and make Indian food. When the film is over, Grover attempts to play Carrom with the Elephant, who excitedly tosses the game pieces everywhere and claims to have won when he lands one of them in Grover's vest.
