However, Big Bird is sad because Granny Bird won't be in attendance because she lives too far to travel for the event ("She doesn't fly, not even on airplanes."). As Big Bird leaves to get his party tie, Elmo giggles over a surprise they have in store for him. | |

Frank sends Big Bird on another errand, while Granny Bird starts to ache over not being able to hug her grandson. | |
