SCENE 1
cont'd
Prairie walks over to the yard, where The Three Little Pigs are preparing their houses in case of a huffing-and-puffing. Two of the pigs are busy playing "Rock-Paper-Scissors-Shoot" but keep tying at Paper. The third pig appears to be the most effectively prepared, since he has his Big Bad Wolf Emergency Kit, which contains un-huff-and-puffable bricks. Sure enough, a thespian Big Bad Wolf does arrive on Sesame Street. The other two pigs try to protect their houses, but to no avail.

The third pig's brick house protects him against the wolf's air. Refusing to be vanquished, the wolf searches for another fairy tale to invade - such as "The Reporter and the Big Bad Wolf." Prairie gets blown away by a gust of the wolf's wind, and promises the viewer that they will be right back after these commercials. The other two pigs invade the brick house.

Her next interviewee is Sleeping Beauty, whose wake-up kit consists of an alarm clock, a rooster, and a bugle that the rooster can play in case his crowing doesn't help. She demonstrates its effectiveness by going to sleep. The alarm goes off, but it doesn't wake her up. Nor does the rooster's crowing - but his bugle playing does!

SCENE 4 Next, Prairie Dawn investigates Baby Bear's way of preparing for a porridge emergency, or as he calls it, "home invasion." His invention, a porridge detector protector, lets him know when Goldilocks is about to eat his porridge. He shows the viewer a training film he has put together demonstrating how his invention works: when Goldilocks enters, a Dinger pops up and starts dinging, which alerts a nearby Honker, who honks to alert a nearby duck, who alerts Telly so he can jump on his pogo stick all the way to Sesame Street to alert Baby Bear.
