Picture Segment Description
COLD OPEN Merry Monster loves to dance, and makes up her own dances based on one of the letters of the day - H. She comes up with the "Happy Helicopter Dance," which makes her spin around like crazy until she crashes.


SCENE 1 Gordon and Marcus are playing catch when Big Bird introduces the game show, "What Happens Next?" with host Mr. Snuffleupagus (wearing his quiz show host toupee). Gordon and Marcus wind up as contestants, where they must correctly guess what happens next in a series of pictures that Daria presents, which involves a group of kids' search of a hat for their snow-penguin sculpture. Gordon and Marcus give an obvious answer, which ends up being different than the one Big Bird and Snuffy have prepared: an older kid's grocery bag is used for the snow-penguin rather than her hat. Snuffy decides to give the contestants their prize anyway, which consists of a snow-penguin starter kit (a paper bag) and their very own quiz show host toupee!
