SCENE 5 | Mr. Hooper, Gordon, and Luis discuss a bunch of other round and flat things that have bites taken out of them: a frisbee, a stack of plates, and a manhole cover. Cookie Monster removes his blindfold, giving up the game. Gordon helps him out by giving him some clues as to where the cookie is - it's on top of something that's big, blue, metallic, sits on the street, and people put letters into it. Cookie Monster gets the idea and runs off to... |
 |
SCENE 5 cont'd | ...the mailbox, where the cookie is waiting! He scarfs it down, when Mr. Hooper reveals he's procured another cookie for him. Cookie Monster decides to save it and proposes other games they could play with it (such as "King of the Mountain Cookie" or "Cookie, Cookie, Who's Got the Cookie?"). Everyone leaves, so Cookie plays a solo game of "Eat the Cookie" (which he wins). |
