"Numerosity" outtakes hidden on Disc 1

50 Years and Counting is a DVD set commemorating the 50th anniversary of Sesame Street, released on October 1, 2019. The two-disc set contains various segments and street plots from the show's history, with one disc containing just segments (presented in themed sections) and the other containing just street plots.
