SCENE 1 | Cookie Monster has a box of cookies that he is about to eat, but he wants to find a quiet place to eat them in, where he won't be disturbed. He decides Hooper's Store would be an appropriate spot, so he enters to find David and Big Bird discussing what the number 4 looks like. David asks to borrow Cookie Monster's box so he can use it with the other boxes to form a 4 on the floor for Big Bird. |
