Episode 2481




 * Monsterpiece Theater: "The Sound of Music"


 * Ernie thinks that he isn't special. Bert tells Ernie to feel his nose -- "That's an Ernie nose!" -- and then feel his hair, and wiggle his fingers. Bert says that nobody else is just like Ernie. Encouraged, Ernie tells the audience to do the same.


 * Anything Muppets perform an opera about front and back (to the tune of "The Blue Danube").


 * Lefty's boss tells Lefty to steal "the Golden AN", put it in a tan van, and give it to Dan, who will give it to Fran. However, Lefty can't remember the plan very well, and has to repeat it several times, which results in a police officer named Stan overhearing the plan, and giving him "ten days in the can for stealing 'the Golden AN'". The skit ends with Lefty being arrested, saying, "I should have ran!"


 * Kermit tries to explain the difference between happy and sad, two emotions which Elmo displays while trying to get Kermit to play with him.


 * "Born to Add"


 * Pageant: The cast demonstrates how to keep your teeth clean. Bert plays the role of the tooth. Herry Monster is a germ (complete with black coat and moustache). Ernie and Grover come to the rescue in the roles of the toothpaste and toothbrush. Cookie Monster enters the stage with a bucket in his hands, demonstrating how to rinse afterwards. Luckily, when he throws the contents over Bert, the bucket turns out to be filled with confetti.


 * Farmer Ernie sings "Grow High Grow Low" about how some plants grow high while some grow low.
