COLD OPEN | Telly announces today's sponsors, which he has in his picnic bag lunch along with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (which he jokes is also a sponsor). |
  |
SCENE 1 | Telly is all set to go on a picnic with Bob, some kids, Alice, and Herry Monster. They've also brought a few things to play with after the picnic; Herry is especially looking forward to playing some football. It seems like they've planned for everything when it starts to rain - something they didn't prepare for. They take shelter under the awning of Hooper's Store, and Bob decides that the picnic will be at his apartment today instead. Herry isn't too keen on the idea, but goes along with them anyway. |
