SCENE 1 | Big Bird calls Mr. Hooper and the kids over to inform them of the new word he invented - "YO," used to describe the action of rubbing one's tummy and hopping up and down at the same time. Mr. Hooper points out the word already has a meaning - it's the Spanish word for "I." Big Bird is disappointed, but Mr. Hooper encourages him not to give up. After a bit of pondering, Big Bird manages to create a new word to replace it - "worple." |
