SCENE cont'd Elmo thinks the ball could be under the table, so they both look. Telly leaves his pad and crayon on the table. When they emerge without seeing it, they discover Telly's stuff is gone now! Elmo has another clue: he heard a "whoosh" noise. He remembers where he's also heard that noise and fetches his copy of "The Three Little Pigs" and they see the Big Bad Wolf blowing down a house with a "whoosh." They assume he's responsible, when he arrives to set the record straight (having heard them with his big ears). He explains he's out of the pig-chasing business and now works as a hair dryer at a salon. He brings his wet-haired customer, Mrs. Hathahkugel, to prove it. He gives them his card and heads off back to work. The two hear the whoosh again and Telly's hat is blown from his head. They now notice they felt a tickle.

Muppets / Animation Abby's Flying Fairy School
Mrs. Sparklenose helps Abby, Blogg and Gonnigan recycle bottles they brought from home. One of Abby's bottles it dusty, so she rubs it and out comes Gene the Genie. He feels cramped inside and refuses to go back in. The bottle, not wanting to be empty, begins hopping around, looking for someone to suck inside. The bottle entraps Mrs. Sparklenose inside, while Gene plans to spend 1,001 nights in Vegas. Abby reminds Gene he needs to grant 3 wishes. Abby wishes for Mrs. Sparklenose to get out of the bottle, with Niblet then taken in his place. Gonnigan rephrases the wish and asks for not one of them to be inside, so he poofs them all inside, thus there is not one. They call on Spot, who shows them a film on “all” and “none”. They wish for them all of them to get out and none of them would be inside. The bottle looks for some to capture and it gets Mrs. Sparklenose again. Gene refuses to switch places with her, not wanting to be in a small space again. They twinkle think and get an idea to magically recycle his bottle with other ones to make a larger one, complete with sliding glass doors so he can leave whenever he feels.
