Intro | ||
Scene | Helen is showing Wolle, Pferd and Samson photos from her and Nils' vacation in Egypt. They are impressed by the picture of her and Nils at one of the three great pyramids and they start to wonder how the pyramids were built. Samses the builder is going to build a new pyramid for Pharaoh Wollnaton and queen NoPferdtete. Wollnaton asks Sames if he is ready to build the pyramid, Samses says that he has all the materials they need. | |
Scene | There's a slight problem: Samses the builder doesn't know how to build a pyramid. Luckily, Princess Helenefer has the building plans, which she hands to Wollnaton so he can oversee the construction. | |
Scene | The pyramid construction is well underway when Princess Helenefer suggests that they build it as high as they can. But Wollnaton is not happy with the construction; it looks more like a tower than a pyramid. Wollnaton tells them that a pyramid is not only high, but also wide. NoPferdtete is getting very hungry and starts to eat the construction scaffolding, which causes the tower to collapse. Wollnaton orders another attempt. | |
Scene | Wollnaton is not happy with the new construction either. It's wide and high, but it's missing the top. He decides to build it himself. | |
Scene | All of them are singing a song about the pyramid that they are building. Back on Sesamstrasse, they conclude that building a pyramid was no easy task. | |

Muppets | As the boss asks Wolle to start the next segment, Wolle is nowhere to be seen in the control room. Wolle then yells that the boss will have to find him first.

Muppets | Wolle is chewing gum at the controls when he is surprised by his boss. He tells Wolle that it's time to close down for the day. The boss tells Wolle that gum is not allowed in the control room, so Wolle quickly spits it out and leaves. But as he moves away from the chair the gum sticks to it and Wolle gets pulled back into the chair. The boss then says to Wolle that that's the reason why gum is not allowed. |
