At the Mail it Shop, Gabi is making popcorn for Big Bird and the Birdketeers, but then the popcorn machine stops working. Super Grover and Super Chicken arrive at the same time and sing their theme songs. As Super Grover continues to sing his theme song, Super Chicken fixes the machine by pecking it and Big Bird and the Birdketeers cheer again. Super Grover begins to think he is useless as a superhero and his friends don't need him anymore. He decides to hang up his cape, but has trouble getting it off. |

As Super Grover starts to leave, he runs into Maria and Luis and tells them that he is going to leave Sesame Street. Maria suggests that they talk about it while they eat some popcorn. |
  |
SCENE cont'd |
As Gabi starts to pass out the popcorn, Super Chicken gobbles up everyone's popcorn, making a mess and leaving none for anyone else. Big Bird reveals that popcorn is her one weakness: "one sniff and she goes bananas." In a lesson in moderation, Grover observes that it is neither wise nor prudent to lose control of one's material urges, and exposes the clucking superhero as a naughty chicken. Super Chicken leaves in a huff, and Super Grover decides to remain on Sesame Street after all. In the end, he gives everyone a group hug, while they wait for the popcorn machine to make some more popcorn. |
