COLD OPEN | What's the Word on the Street?: Robot (First: Episode 4185) | |
SCENE | Chris welcomes the viewer and counts the pies that were just delivered (counting 17 pies total). Elmo, Telly and Rosita rush to him and ask him to read a book to them. Chris begins the book, which is about a helpful robot named Rico who loves to help en la manana (the morning), en la tarde (the afternoon) and en la noche (the night). After the story, Chris goes back to work and remarks a robot like that would be of good use to him, which sparks an idea in the monsterโs heads. | |
SCENE contโd | Chris starts stacking the pies away when he is startled by Telly wearing a robot costume, causing Chris to drop the pie boxes. However, he claims heโs not Telly, but one of the Help-o-Bots. He introduces the rest of the crew. They show the things they can do, such as going forward and backward and rotating. They can also pick things up and demonstrate by picking up the boxes Chris dropped. Chris accepts their help. | |
SCENE contโd | The Help-O-Bots begin helping stack the pies, but they start going faster , resulting in a big mess (and a pie on Chrisโ head). The Help-O-Bots offer their help to clean the store with their โbuilt-inโ cleaning equipment. They start cleaning, but end up making the mess worse (and sending another pie Chrisโ way). Chris asks that they stop helping him clean and go help someone else using their talents. They all claim theyโre good at saying the alphabet, but find it unlikely someone would need help with itโฆ | |
SCENE contโd | โฆuntil a man (Joey Mazzarino) rushes into the store, looking for someone to help him find the letter after G. The Help-O-Bots canโt help him, but the Alpha-Beta Bots can! They say the alphabet for the man who thanks them and goes off on his way. The Alpha-Beta Bots cheer for their success and go off to find more people with alphabet-related trouble. | |
SCENE contโd | Just then, Rico, the robot from the book, enters Hooperโs, not to help Chris, but for lunch. He orders a motor oil smoothie and a 9-volt on rye. (โAnd charge it please!โ) | |

Muppets / Animation | Abby's Flying Fairy School Today, the class will take the "Tooth Fairy Test", where they must retrieve a child's tooth, change it into a coin, then leave it under their pillow. They appear in a little girl's bedroom and Blogg tries a sleeping spell to make sure she doesn't wake up, but it affects Mrs. Sparklenose as well. Now on their own, Blogg tries to get the tooth, but his hand gets stuck under the girl's hand. They use the magic lifting word (up) and she rises into the air. But, now how to they make the tooth into a coin? They call on Spot, who shows them a commercial for The World Tooth Bank, where chanting "ATM" will conjure up a tooth-to-coin machine. They chant the letters and convert the tooth into one coin. Blogg tries to slip under the pillow, but they keep saying down, making her fall on his hand again. Gonnigan loses his grip and falls onto a TV remote, showing a workout show, which continuously makes the girl go up and down. They finally get the coin under the pillow, when Mrs. Sparklenose wakes up, ready to begin the test. She sees the great job they've already done and awards them their Tooth Fairy Badges.
