SCENE 1 | Gordon and Big Bird are chatting when they find a big, blue, first-prize ribbon on the ground. They don't know who it belongs to, and decide it's best to return it to whoever lost it. They ask if Mr. Hooper knows the ribbon's owner, since a lot of people come to his store. He can't recall, but it does give him an idea. |

SCENE 2 | Mr. Hooper makes a sign, so if the person who lost the ribbon passes his store they will know what to do. Gordon notices that the ribbon has three letters on it: D, O, and G. This clues them to believe that it belonged to a dog who had won first prize in a show. Gordon and Mr. Hooper go back to work, leaving Big Bird with the sign and the ribbon. Bob enters with a puppy, and Big Bird assumes that the ribbon is his. Bob explains that the dog is too young to be put in a show, so it couldn't be his. |

SCENE 3 | Oscar enters Hooper's Store and asks for the usual: a spinach sundae with pickles, sardines and chocolate sauce. They ask him if the ribbon is his, but he reveals that he threw it out of his trash can, because the Disagreeable Order of Grouches awarded him (three episodes prior) the "handsomest grouch of the year", which is an insult. Oscar storms out, and Gordon decides to give Mr. Hooper the ribbon for having the best ice cream sundaes. |
