	COLD OPEN	What's the Word on the Street?: Absorb
	SCENE	Luis and Zoe welcome the viewer while planting in the garden, warned by Stinky the Stinkweed to place the plants carefully (he doesn't want them to spring up and poke his eye out). Chris arrives with some mail, including a package for Stinky, who seems excited. They open it up and find the book Stinky ordered - "Every Plant There Ever Was" by Dr. Lily Rosenbloom. Though Stinky isn't on the cover, they assure him he might be in the table of contents or index. However, neither shows a stinkweed catalogued in the book. This leads Stinky to one conclusion - he's not a plant! Chris tries assuring him he is a plant by pointing out all the parts he has, but he's not convinced; if he were a plant, he'd be in the book. But, if he's not a plant, what is he then?
	SCENE cont'd	A robin briefly appears and Stinky thinks he must be a bird. He can sing and peck like a bird, but he can't fly (no matter how hard he flaps his leaves). Then, an accountant passes by looking for 428 McDoogle Street and explains what he does to Stinky. He thinks he's an accountant, but no one has any tax returns for him. Chris tries to calm him down, trying to convince him he's a plant. Stinky doesn't believe him; a plant analyst the likes of Lily Rosenbloom couldn't forget him.
	SCENE cont'd	Chris decides to end this issue by texting Lily about Stinky. She soon appears, eager to find the new plant species. She conducts some tests to prove he's a plant by giving him water and light, which he reacts positively to. She concludes he is a plant after all! Instead of adding him to her already published book, she finds him so fascinating, he writes a completely new book - The Great Big Book of Stinky! Chris begins reading it to Stinky, who's happy to be a plant again, as well as a great literary character. The street story can be seen at Sesamestreet.org. Template:SSvideo

He then pulls out some balloons that can't lift the piano, but lift Grover up in the air! He grabs hold of the clothesline and breaks it. The birds lift him up with the pulley and the eager robin son wonders if the rope could lift the piano. Grover proceeds to whip the piano with it and the robin son decides to play superhero. He deduces that if they put the rope through the pull on their tree, they can lift it. Grover sits on the piano to come up with another plan, not noticing they are lifting him up with it. They all cheer and Grover falls to the ground. He states they may need the pulley again...for him. (First: Episode 4224)
