Mel Gibson plays Hamlet, who keeps repeating "words, words, words" -- but Elmo can't read, so he only looks at "pictures, pictures, pictures." Hamlet also encourages Elmo to "get thee to a library" (instead of his "get thee to a nunnery" speech to Ophelia) and declares "Now I am alone" (which precedes the "rogue and peasant slave" soliloquy where he comes up with the idea of using a play to trap Claudius).
