SCENE 1 Mr. Hooper has a single container of strawberry yogurt at the store, but isn't sure how to get rid of it, knowing it's not a very popular item. He is about to dispose of it when he comes up with a better idea: he puts it on his specials board, thinking someone will take it off his hands. Gordon stops in and orders it, but soon Susan, Big Bird, the kids, and Mr. Macintosh all want some. Willy learns of the problem and proposes they all go to the supermarket and get all the yogurt they want over there. Everyone piles out of the store, leaving behind the sole yogurt container; Mr. Hooper shrugs and eats it himself.

However, he immediately runs into David who offers to make the deliveries for him. He then spots a jump rope he could use, until a girl comes to reclaim it. He tries to play some basketball in the yard, but a couple of kids want to play with the ball instead. He almost gets some walking in when Grover orders a quart of milk over the phone, but Maria offers to make the delivery for him and snatches the carton. He resolves to just stay in place and do some toe touches in the store, but Big Bird offers to do it for him by stooping down and tapping his toes with his wings.
