On a rainy day, Ernie watches TV, when Bert suggests he do something else, like write a story.

Thus, Ernie sets everything out on the table, including pencils, paper, a pencil sharpener, and a wastebasket (which somehow ended up on Bert's head). Ernie now has everything he needs to write a story except a story idea. He decides to leave everything laid out until he has one.
