SCENE cont'd Outside, Brandeis is upset that he'll never find a job. Elmo notices Gina with a dog nearby, and they go inspect. Gina explains that the dog, Hercules, is a service dog whom Gina is training to help people. She directs Elmo and Brandeis to observe two other service dogs in training, Barry and Phoebe. Barry's trainer teaches him to guide blind street resident Harold, while Phoebe learns to assist a young girl in a wheelchair with opening and closing a drawer in a chest. Brandeis thinks it's the kind of job he could do and undergoes several weeks of training with Gina ("I Want to Be a Service Dog").

SCENE cont'd After his training, Brandeis is now a certified service dog. Gina bestows his official service dog vest. Elmo learns that when wearing the vest, the dogs should not be petted so they can concentrate, but they can play when they're off duty. Today is also the day Brandeis meets the person he'll be helping, and he's very nervous. His special friend, Liliana (who is in a wheelchair), shares the same fears about meeting Brandeis, but her dad (George Faya)[1] reassures her in the same way Gina heartened Brandeis a moment earlier. When they meet face to face, Brandeis picks up her dropped lunchbag, and their friendship begins to blossom. He takes her to Hooper's for some milk, and Elmo notes he's going to make a great service dog.

Muppets Super Grover 2.0: How Now Down Cow
At a beauty parlor in the city, a lady cow finds herself stuck at the top of the stairs. Super Grover 2.0 arrives on the scene and offers a solution: dancing the down the stairs! When that doesn't work, he observes the stairs and tries to get rid of them using karate, but hurts his hand instead. He dashes off and returns with a trampoline. The cow makes a leap, but is bounced right back to the top. Grover observes some more and finds the stairs are bumpy and they need to "de-bump" them. Luckily, he has his "stair de-bumpifier" (a board). He holds it up as the cow walks on it, but he collapses under her weight, making a ramp that the cow goes down on.
