SCENE 1 | In the morning, a hungry Big Bird visits Hooper's Store for breakfast, and notices that none of the seats are taken. David tells him he can sit anywhere, but while Big Bird decides where to sit, Marcus and Maria enter and sit down, which means that some seats are now taken. Big Bird continues to decide who to sit next to, when Luis and Bahiyyah enter and sit down, so now all of the seats are taken. When they see how hungry Big Bird is, they immediately empty their seats out of consideration. Unfortunately, Big Bird starts the process all over again, unsure of which seat to now take. |
