	SCENE 1	Big Bird walks up to Susan and the kids on the stoop of 123 Sesame Street, wanting to show them a new trick where he can make a rhyme for any part of the body. He starts off making various rhymes such as "hand" and "band," "nose" and "toes," "leg" and "egg," and "arm" and "farm." However, when Sebastian suggests "elbow," Big Bird is stumped.

Gordon finally arrives and Oscar brings him over to tell him she's at Big Bird's. Gordon checks and doesn't find her there, leading him to believe that Oscar lied. They then argue over whether he did or did not, when Susan comes running over after hearing all the yelling. She realizes the situation and explains that Oscar told the truth. Gordon briefly apologizes, and Oscar suggests they ask him for more favors if they're going to be as rotten as this one.
