COLD OPEN | Elmo announces we'll be seeing lots of dinosaurs and gets the viewer to roar like one. (First: Episode 4608) | |
SCENE 1 | Elmo poses as a paleontologist, inspired by his book, When Dinosaurs Walked on Sesame Street. He tells the viewer they'll be seeing lots of dinosaurs, including Chris, who's dressed as a stegosaurus. The rest of the gang (Grover, Cookie Monster, Abby, Ernie, Bert, Telly, Rosita and Prairie Dawn) join as all types of dinosaurs as Elmo and Chris sing about the dinosaurs that walked on the street long ago. Afterward, Big Bird calls Elmo over to his nest, unable to find his dinosaur costume. Elmo is sure he'll find it and play dinosaur along with everyone else. | |
SCENE 1 cont'd | Next, Elmo leads a game of "Feed the Dinosaur." Abby (as a triceratops) and Cookie Monster (a T-rex) arrive, representing herbivores and carnivores (respectively). Grover the Dinosaur Waiter brings in some foods and the viewer guesses which dinosaur it would be eaten by. | |
SCENE 1 cont'd | Big Bird comes by, upset because his costume is lost. Chris finds an interesting fact in the book - birds are descendants of feathered dinosaurs, meaning Big Bird himself is a dinosaur! He leads everybody on a musical walk around the street, since they can now see a real dinosaur walk on Sesame Street. | |
Insert | I Wonder, What If, Let's Try Elmo rides his trike down the block and hears a song coming on... (First: Episode 5104) | |
Muppets | Elmo and friends sing and clap as they find out the letter of the day - D. (First: Episode 5010) | |
Celebrity | Elmo, Abby, and Tamir meet "famous dinosaur finder" Dan Levy. Elmo assumes Dan finds dinosaurs all the time, but Dan says he hasn't seen one, just bones and footprints. Tamir points out the importance of fossils, but Dan insists they're not as good as the real thing. He then asks fellow dino finder Dr. Bucky if he's found any, but Bucky hasn't seen a pteranodon or T-rex anywhere. However, the kids make Dan realize Dr. Bucky is a dinosaur. He's very tall and has a long neck and long tail; he's a brachiosaurus! The finders report their discovery to their other team members--both of whom leave Elmo, Abby, and Tamir in awe due to their dino resemblance. | |
Muppets | Elmo and Big Bird hear the sounds of the Foodie Truck approaching... (First: Episode 5104) | |
Muppets | Cookie Monster's Foodie Truck For herself and her herbivorous dinosaur figure, Lucianne requests roasted asparagus with cheese. Cookie Monster collects the ingredients, but can't find any asparagus in the letter "A" food bin (though he does find an apple, an apricot, and an almond, all of which he eats instantly). Gonger has Cookie "aspara-guess" where they need to go. Cookie thinks he "aspara-got" an idea, and the two "aspara-go" to the asparagus farm... | |

Cartoon | Sesame Street Nature Explorers At the park, Tango finds a trail of footprints she, Elmo, and Gabrielle can't identify. Having been reading a book on dinosaurs, Elmo and Gabrielle wonder if they're dinosaur tracks. The three follow the steps, and they find a duck is who made the prints. They then hear an unfamiliar noise. They wonder if it came from a dinosaur, but they come to find it came from a bird. They later find eggshells and once again suspect dino origins, but they quickly realize the shells were the result of a baby bird hatching. Grandma Nell arrives and hears the kids' disappointment that they found no dinosaurs, but she teaches them that birds are (descendants of) dinosaurs. | |
SCENE 2 | Big Bird and a fellow dino talk about their upcoming playdate. With Elmo, the two say goodbye, and the dino shakes the ground in the process. |
