In the sketch, a female Muppet is enjoying a beautiful day outside when a mean [[:Category:Muppet Monsters|monster]] arrives to spoil it. With a wave of his hand and a few grunts, he makes dark storm clouds appear, but the optimistic girl says that she likes rainy days as well. The monster proceeds to do whatever he can to ruin everything that the girl perceives to be beautiful. The girl tells him that he's awful -- but he's so awful that actually he's beautiful; a beautiful example of perfect awfulness. Embarrassed and upset, the monster begins to shrink. When the monster is small enough, the girl smacks the monster with a flyswatter and walks off.
