What Do

You See, Ernie?

Your Nose, Bert.

Ernie, Get Serious,

Will You?

We'Re Supposed To Be

Looking For Big Bird.

Right.

Put Them In Bundles.

Bundles Of A Thousand,

And It'S Mine,

All Mine.

Of Course You Can' See Him. He'S Invisible.

No Place Like Home,

No Place Like Home,

No Place Like...

Toto...

Step Into This Cage.

You'Ll Be Safe Here.

[The Count Gasps]

No!

Stay Here.

[Whimpering]

Maria.

Shh!

Maria,

Maria,

How'D You Get Here?

How, Hi, Where,

How'D You Get In?

Shh! Shh!

Don'T Worry, Big Bird.

We'Ll Get You Outta Here.

Shh!

Uh, Right There.

Don'T Wake Up.

Don'T Wake Up.

Don'T Wake Up, Please.

Thank You.

Oh, Oh, Try That One.

Try That Key.

That'S The One.

Try It. I Know

That'S The One.

One.

One Key.

No!

Oh, Sorry.

Sorry.

One.

One Key.

No, Try The

Gold-Colored One.

Shh, Big Bird.

Please!

Why Don'T You Try The One

With The Funny End On It?

Shh, Big Bird,

You'Ll Wake Them Up!

This Looks Like

A Job For Super Grover.

One More, That'S

Uh, Three Keys,

Four Keys. Oh.

I Don'T--

Shh, Big Bird.

Never Fear,

Super Grover Is Here!

We Do Not Need A Key.

With My Super Strength

I Will Bend The Bars,

And Birdie Will Be

Free As A Bird,

So To Speak.

[Takes Deep Breath]

[Groaning]

Waaaaaah-Aaah-Aahhhh!

[Panting]

I Don'T Think

That'S The One.

No, No, Try

The Next One.

Are You Sure You

Have The Right Keys?

Sam:
Psst!

Big Bird, How

Will We Get You Out

If You Can' Keep Quiet?

Maybe You Should Ask Him If

He Has Another Set Of Keys.

Gee, Big Bird,

Please?

Maybe It'S

A Combination Lock.

Shh!

Go.

No, Don'T Try

That One.

Try That One.

No, Try That One.

No, That One.

That'S The One.

Three.

Three More Keys.

Ohh.

Wrong Key.

Two!

Two More Keys!

One More Key.

That'S It!

Big Bird!

Big Bird!

What Are We

Gonna Do?

They'Re Getting Away!

We Gotta Catch That Truck.

Come On, Olivia. Let'S Go.

Telly,

Wake Up Oscar.

Telly!

Oh, No!

Let Me Out Of Here!

Wait A Minute.

What?

Sis, You Drive.

Why Me?

I'Ve Got An Idea.

Big Bird:

Whoa! Oh, No.

The Doors Are Open.

Hey, Fellas,

These Doors Came--

What Am I

Telling Them For?

O.K., Gordon...

There He Is!

Oh...Oh...

Who'S That?

Who'S That Coming?

Anything

Following Us?

Just A Yellow

Volkswagen

With A Hole In The Roof

And No Hood.

Fine. Keep An Eye Out

For Anything Suspicious.

Now What?

Just Pull Up

Behind The Truck.

Pull Up Behind

The Truck.

Stay Right With It.

Ok.

Gordon, What

Are You Doing?

Are You Nuts?

Get In Here!

Gordon!

You Know, Sid,

I Been Thinking.

Our Big Blue Bird

Needs A New Act.

Yeah. How About If We

Teach Him To Dance?

That'S A Great Idea!

We Can Teach

Him To Breakdance!

An 8 Foot Blue Bird

Breakdancing!

We'Ll Get Him

A White Glove.

We'Ll Make

A Bundle!

## Gunka Chica Gunka

Gi-Gi Gunk ##

Gunka Chica ##

Hey, Gordon!

## Chi-Gunk Chi-Gunk

Chi-Gunk ##

I Got A Better Idea!

How About We Build A High Tower

And Have Him Jump

Into A Pool Of Water?

Jump?

Nah.

He'S Chicken.

Couldn'T We Ask Them

To Stop The Truck?

Don'T Worry.

There'S Plenty Of Room.

Come On, Gordon.

Be Serious.

Hula-Hoop!

No!

Gordon, I'M Not Supposed

To Do This!

You Should Never Jump

From A Moving Truck.

I Shouldn'T Even

Be Standing Up.

You Have My Permission

This Once.

Now Come On!

Huh?

Big Bird, What

Are You Doing?

Ohhh!

Huh?

Oh, O.K., Gordon.

I, Ah...

Whew.

Uh, Uh, Uh...

Whoa...

You Can Do It!

Try It Again!

Come On!

Got You!

He Did It! Whoo!

Hoo Hoo!

Oh, I Knew He

Could Do It!

Oh, Oh, Oh!

Oh, Bird!

Oh!

Oh, Bird!

[Siren]

Hey,

What'S That Noise?

It'S The Cops!

Sam, The Bird'S Gone!

The Bird'S Gone!

Get A Grip On

Yourself, Will Ya!

Just Try To Relax.

I'Ll Take Care

Of Everything.

Whatever You Do,

Don'T Cry.

[Whistling]

Are These The Two Men?

[Thud]

What Seems To Be

The Problem, Officer?

What'S The Charge?

What About

Counterfeiting,

Extortion,

Fraud,

Impersonating

A Dentist,

Stealing An Apple

From A Kid.

Oh, About That Apple,

Officer.

I Can Explain That.

We Was Just Holding It

For A Friend.

Yeah! For A Friend.

You Can Tell That

To The Judge.

The Judge!

Be A Man!

I Don'T Want

To Be A Man.

Shut Up, Sid!

Shut Up!

Judge, Sam.

Jail.

Big Bird Is Here.

You'Re Right! Let'S Hope

He'Ll Be Here Soon.

Big Bird'S Back!

Big Bird'S Home!

Big Bird'S Home!

Big Bird!

What Happened?

They Had A Little

Car Trouble.

Tell Us About

Your Trip.

I Had

Such An Exciting Time.

You Know,

I Was On This Big Farm.

There Were Two

Little Kids There,

And They Were Really Nice,

And I Was Helping Them

Do Things,

And Then Suddenly,

I Looked Up And Saw...

Miss Finch!

Hello, Bird.

Perhaps The Dodos

Weren'T Perfect For You,

But I Have Managed

To Find You

Another Lovely

Bird Family.

He Doesn'T Need

Another Family.

Uh-Uh.

No, No!

No, No, No.

He Has One

Right Here,

And We

All Love Him.

Right.

For Sure.

That'S Right,

Big Bird!

But He'S A Bird.

He'D Be Happier

With His Own Kind.

So You Have.

And You'Re All Happy?

Yes, Definitely.

Well...

You Did Go

To Look For Him,

So That Must

Mean You Care.

He Does Seem

To Have

Lots

Of Friends,

Not Feathered,

But...

All Right.

Big,

From Now On,

Sesame Street

Is Your Home.

Oh, Boy! Oh, Boy!

Oh, Boy!

Thank You!

I'Ve Done It

Again.

Placed Another

Stray Bird

In A Good Home.

Case Dismissed.

Back To Work.

I Wonder Where

Snuffy Is.

Would Everybody Excuse Me

For A Few Minutes?

I'Ve Got Something

I Should Do. Excuse Me, Ok?

See Ya.

Bye, Big.

Snuffy!

Snuffy?

Oh, Bird!

Oh!

Oh, Snuffy,

This Time You'Re Real.

Oh, Bird,

Can I Stop Watching

Your Things Now?

Ha Ha Ha!

Oh, Snuffy.

Oh, Bird.

Ah...Home At Last.

I Hope Nothing'S Seriously

Wrong With Your Car.

I Hope Not, Either,

But I Can Fix It.

[Clank Clunk]

Oh, Gordon!

Never In My Life...

Gordon, What'S

Going On?

What Happened

To Your Car?

Gordon...

Gordon!

What Happened

To The Car?

Don'T Ask Me,

Our Insurance Man

Won'T Believe This.
