SCENE 1 Picking up where the previous episode left off, the Sesame Street gang prepares for their plane to make a landing in Hawaii! Everyone is excited except Big Bird, who's still sad that his friend Mr. Snuffleupagus didn't make the flight. He proposes that they head back to the airport, but Maria advises that with them 6,000 miles away it's not a good idea. Meanwhile, a stewardess warns Oscar that the upcoming landing could cause his belongings to fall out of the overhead compartments, but that's just the way he likes them and refuses to let anyone touch it.
