SCENE 1 | Baby Bear is furious with Goldilocks; he found his wee-little chair smashed to bits, his porridge bowl empty, and his bed slept in. He believes she did it all, citing past examples of her recklessness. She and Big Bird protest that she's innocent but Baby Bear does not want to hear it, refusing to be friends with her and threatening to tell everyone what she did so she won't have any friends on Sesame Street. Papa Bear shows up with the chair in question, and he reveals that he was responsible for the deeds Goldilocks was blamed for due to a series of mishaps. Goldilocks runs off crying, leaving Baby Bear racked with guilt, and Papa Bear advises him to make her happy again. Big Bird volunteers to help. |
