SCENE 2 Buffy and some of the kids discuss their nationalities, showing how people in Hawaii can come from many places. Oscar refers to himself as "a bonafide, good ol' green Grouch," and asks what the kids do. They tell him they like to play, go to school, and go shopping. Oscar is disappointed to hear that they also like to have hukilaus (fishing parties) and don't have a lot of traffic or water pollution. All these good things make Oscar miserable, which he enjoys.

Big Bird confirms what the mountain will look like, but neither of them notice that the mountain behind them (outlined via telestrator) is the one they're looking for.
