Picture Segment Description
1468a
SCENE 1 Deena wants to play with Barkley (or "Big Bow-Wow" as she calls him), who is currently resting next to 123 Sesame Street. She wakes him up and assumes his growling means he's pretending to be a ferocious lion. Gordon tells Deena that she should leave Barkley alone while he tries to sleep and should respect his feelings for not wanting to play. Gordon leaves, and Deena then pretends that Barkley is "Sleeping Beauty" and that she's the princess who blows kisses trying to wake him up, becoming worried that she'll have to wait a hundred years before he does so.
