Picture	Segment	Description
	SCENE 1	Luis, Mr. Hooper, Bob, and Maria are startled when they hear the sounds of a car crash, followed by a low-flying jet plane and a train engine. They and the kids follow the sounds of a marching band to Oscar's trash can, where Oscar has been blasting them through his tape recorder, the tapes being presents from his cousin Clarence. Bob temporarily finds a Mozart tune among Oscar's collection (by mistake according to Oscar), but Oscar has Bob change it to racetrack noises at the Indianapolis 500 and trash being crushed.
