Cold opening | Ernie tells Bert there's a snake standing behind him. At first Bert doesn't believe him, since a snake can't stand because it doesn't have any legs. Ernie continues to tell Bert about the snake behind him, until Bert turns around, gets scared and runs away. Ernie then offers the snake one of his jelly beans. |

 |
SCENE, cont'd | Rumpel says that he was in his barrel when Finchen came by singing and a ghost appeared behind him. The ghost is happy that Rumpel is scared, so he then proceeds to dust off Rumpel's barrel. He introduces himself as Lambert and he seeks a new haunting job.

  |
SCENE, cont'd | Finchen tells him that he really doesn't look that scary in his fancy clothes, but Rumpel thinks he looks really frightening in that outfit. Lambert is happy that he finally found a place were someone is scared of him, so he wants to stay and he starts to clean around Rumpel's barrel. Rumpel wants to get rid of Lambert, so he wants Finchen to help him turn Lambert into a different type of ghost.

  |
SCENE, cont'd | They ask him if he has any chains he can rattle with. He takes out a small string with a ball attached. Rumpel goes down into his barrel and finds a big rusty chain, which is much better. Lambert asks them to wait a bit until he has polished the ball and then proceeds to dance with it. Rumpel then asks Lambert to scream and a weak "boo" comes out of Lambert. Rumpel and Finchen then start to sing a song about how to be a ghost. After the song Lambert is no longer wearing the fine clothes. Now he is wearing a more raggy set of clothes. He tries his new "boo" on Finchen, who gets scared right away. Rumpel holds a trash bin lid up so Lambert can see himself, and he scares himself. Finchen tells him he can get whichever ghost job he likes now. |
