SCENE 1 Olivia, Bob, Gordon, and Mr. Hooper are sitting on the steps of 123 Sesame Street when a dog (who would later be established as Barkley) approaches them. His tag features a name beginning with W, but the rest has worn off, so they try out some W names to call him over. The dog doesn't respond to any male names, so Olivia and the others try some female ones.

Oscar the Grouch suggests this could be a grouch hound and tries out some names like Worthless and Washrag. Each time they ask the dog what its name might be, the dog replies, "Woof, Woof!" Bob finally figures it out, and when he calls over "Woof Woof," the dog excitedly approaches, happily rolling around and kissing everyone.

SCENE 2 Woof Woof is sitting outside Hooper's Store while Mr. Hooper arranges things at the newspaper stand. Olivia comes by and asks what the dog likes about the store. Mr. Hooper is unsure but offers Olivia a newspaper. Just then, the dog excitedly jumps up on Mr. Hooper and smothers him with kisses as he leads him into the store knocking over some boxes. He tells Olivia he's okay, the dog was just being friendly, but wonders what prompted the reaction. They retrace what had happened just before and when they say "newspaper" again, the dog has the same reaction. Gordon comes along and begins to ask for a newspaper, but Mr. Hooper and Olivia shush him, offering other items for the store to keep him from setting off the dog again. When he leaves, Mr. Hooper says he's glad he didn't say "newspaper"... prompting another flurry of excitement from the dog.
