Picture	Segment	Description
	COLD OPEN	Elmo, Rosita, and The Count are expecting it to rain today. They explain to Savion why they're looking forward to it: because The Count is going to count the raindrops. He's tried to in the past, but hasn't gone higher than 6,349. He thinks he'll count higher today, because he's having Rosita hold an umbrella over him, and Elmo will fan him. Plus, he'll be able to use both of his hands instead of just one. It starts raining slowly, and The Count starts counting.
	SCENE 1	The Count reaches 19,788 raindrops, and loses count. He feels like he never wants to count again, but his friends try to talk him out of his misery by pointing out that he's counted more raindrops than anyone has ever counted before. The Count feels better about counting again, and Savion welcomes the viewer to Sesame Street.
