	SCENE 1	Linda welcomes the viewer in sign language as Bob translates. Elmo and Telly arrive late and become upset; they wanted to greet the viewer and say all the stuff Linda did. Linda sees no harm in giving a second welcome, so they all do it together - by both speaking and signing it.

	SCENE 2	Gina finishes having some lunch at Hooper's Store, which she deems "scrumptious." Elmo pops up and asks David what the word means. He likes this new word and repeats it over and over, then wishes to use it himself by having something scrumptious. David gives him samples of several dishes, not finding any of them truly scrumptious. Finally, an irked David asks Elmo what kind of foods he likes and plops down Elmo's favorite - an apple. However, Elmo is now much too full from all the other dishes to eat it, but takes the apple for later.
