He presents Olivia with the rules (as they're generally played) and some basketball shorts and a shirt.

Only then does he uncover the basketball stand, where a ball is pinned up to the top and presents Olivia with a very heavy basket, to which he instructs her to throw at the ball on the stand.

SCENE 3 Telly is sitting by the stoop, trying to feed his plant when Olivia comes by. Telly explains that he's been trying to give his plant sandwiches and water through a straw, but it simply just won't take it. He also adds that he takes his plant for a walk for an hour every day so it can get enough sunlight. Olivia tells him that plants aren't like people, and shows him how to give the plant water. She also advises that he leave his plant by the windowsill so it can get sunlight all day long. Telly thanks Olivia, and figures he should put his hat near the windowsill to grow too since it's gotten too small for his head.

Bob walks by and asks Forgetful what's so unbelievable, and Forgetful describes Snuffy all the while he stands behind Bob, which Bob doesn't notice. Bob soon recalls that what Forgetful is describing sounds like Big Bird's "imaginary" friend, the Snuffleupagus. They both figure that if that was indeed what it was, Forgetful couldn't have seen it and was imagining it instead... yet Forgetful asks Bob what the creature standing behind them was while they were talking.
