COLD OPEN Big Bird tells the viewer what they'll see today: Snuffy telling a joke (that Big Bird doesn't particularly find funny, to Snuffy's chagrin). Elsewhere, Ruthie is holding a "Rumpelstiltskin Birthday Sale" at Finders Keepers (where everything is just 2 cents), Zoe is bothering Oscar at his trash can and finally, Savion is feeding Natasha some creamed spinach. Savion teases some "fresh fun" following the theme song...
