Picture	Segment	Description
	COLD OPEN	Itzhak Perlman has to talk quick about the program since Big Bird is building a block wall around Sesame Street, just like the wall in Jerusalem.
	SCENE 1	Itzhak describes Jerusalem and how they’ll visit it. One of the kids asks him why they're Casria if they're going to Jerusalem. He checks the map and regrets having Kippi drive their jeep.
	Muppets	Kippi travels with his friend to Jerusalem to find his friend who has just gotten a new job. Kippi finds out he works at the Knesset, the Parliament. When they meet him there, they take a tour of it.
	Muppets	Bert hears the phone ringing inside a basket, and asks Ernie to answer it. Ernie goes through the basket, and finds a banana. He pretends it's a phone, and gives it to Bert to talk to. Ernie answers the real phone, and tells the caller that Bert can't come to the phone because he's talking on the banana. Bert's dialogue is in Hebrew.
