Picture	Segment	Description
	SCENE 1	Ruthie relaxes outside Finders Keepers, welcoming the viewer. Snuffy arrives, moaning in pain. He tells Ruthie he's hurt his foot this morning trying to move his dresser; a drawer fell on his foot. He reports that the doctor said he'll be fine, nothing's broken. He then tries some new ways of walking, so his foot won't hurt when he walks. Ruthie advises him to sit down and rest his foot on a chair. He tries it, but on Ruthie's lap instead. Celina and Lexine pass by and remind him it's time for dance class, but how can he dance with a sore foot?

His Royal Reader helps him read a STOP sign (which helps them avoid some stampeding horses) and a DANGER sign (which saves them from a falling piano).
