[[Telly]] is the Masked Tuba Player, who travels around [[Sesame Street (location)|Sesame Street]] and helps people with his tuba. Telly provides musical accompaniment to [[Big Bird]] as he presents the letter of the day, helps [[Elmo]] count to ten by playing ten notes, and helps [[Rosita]] explain fast and slow. Telly frets that there doesn't seem to be a way to help [[Oscar]], who tells him to get lost. [[Gabi]] suggests that Telly play a tune to cheer himself up. His happy songs irritate Oscar -- but Oscar likes being irritated, so Telly has helped him after all.
