Elmo wants a cookie, and Zoe wants ice cream. Miles suggests having some fruit instead, hyping its nutritional value. The monsters still insist on having sweets, so Miles decides to explain why it's cool to eat fruit. The lights dim and Duck Clark, the host of American Fruit Stand, enters the scene to introduce Miles' new hit song.

Gina starts to reenact the previous song as Maria arrives, asking if there's a concert going on. Elmo and Zoe explain that Miles is singing all about fruit, but Maria instead requests some vegetables, namely broccoli. This makes Zoe wonder if a vegetable can get on American Fruit Stand.
