---|---|---|
COLD OPEN | Telly Monster is on the Spot and he is covering an alphabet problem. The letter Z (Camille Bonora) wants to be the first letter of the alphabet, believe it or not, because Z is tired of being the last letter of the alphabet. The letter A (Peter Linz) asks the letter Z to go back to the end of the alphabet. The letter Z wants to be the first letter of the alphabet, if it's the last thing he'll do. | |
SCENE 1 | The letter Z is still complaining about being first, since A is always first. Maria and two kids come out of Hooper's Store, since they heard the news about the alphabet. The letter A asks the kids to sing the alphabet to show that Z is last and A is first. Z says that it's the first letter of the alphabet every single time. So Z wants to change the alphabet and Telly asks Maria if that is possible. A says he is a fan of being the first letter of the alphabet and refuses to switch positions. Z starts to have meltdown about it. Telly tells the Z being last is not bad. Maria reminds the letter Z that you can be first at something else, words. But apparently, the letter Z is quitting the alphabet. | |

The letter Z pplaces itself in front of the E and makes the word zeggs.
