FRAME 1 Mr. Snuffleupagus strolls down to Big Bird's nest to see the scrapbook he made, compiling all of his favorite things, including photos and various artifacts. Big Bird first shows his four collection, where Snuffy notices a photograph of Big Bird holding a microphone, thinking he's going to talk about the number four. However, Big Bird actually does something different: he sings about it.
