SCENE 1 Sonny Friendly bursts into the Fix-It Shop to host the "Choose Your Cheese Challenge" game show with Maria and Carlo. The goal of the game is to pick which hand Sonny has some cheese in. Learning from past experiences, Maria asks up front what the prize will be and learns it's a box of chocolate! Maria decides to go for it and picks Sonny's left hand, which has cherries instead. Carlo picks the other (only closed) hand and wins the chocolates. Maria is given a consolation prize - a frantic chicken (Julianne Buescher)!

SCENE 3 Maria tries calling the pet shop to take away the animals, when Sonny appears with a third game show - "Claim Your Clock!" Maria plays along, as the prize is an all-expense paid trip to Cleveland (which would get her away from the animals). Sonny gives them three boxes, two of which have clocks. Maria, unfortunately, picks the one box containing a clown, while the chicken and sheep claim the clocks and win the trip. Maria's consolation prize now is the clocks, which ring loudly with no way of silencing them. "I can't win," she laments.
