Yeah!
I like it when they went to

Boy, Elmo thinks it's so exciting,
meeting new friends far away.
Yeah, and learning how they
do things
in other countries.
Ohh! I cannot wait to hear
where they go next.
Yeah-eah-eah!
Oh, has Nina ever ridden in a
hot air balloon before?
Oh, yeah,

But we didn't go anywhere.
We just sort of hovered
over a hot dog stand.

would be cool!

Really?
What's Abby talking about?
Well, well,
because I have a magic wand! See?
All I have to do is poof up
some balloons,
and we'll go someplace nearby
and pretend we're going
around the world.
Oh!
I like it! I like it!
Yeah, yeah.
That's one of the best things
about being a fairy.
Yeah, you just kind of poof
up anything that you need.
That's why I love my magic wand.

You are. Oh, Wanda!

We're flying!
It's so beautiful!

Mm-hmm.
Ohh...
Oh, boy.
Look, Abby! The bridge!
Whoa!
Wow!
Oh, ha ha ha!
What?
Oh, Elmo's getting a little dizzy.
Uh-oh.
Check this out.
Oh, look at the house!
Ha ha ha!
Oh, hmm...
Oh. Oh. Beautiful.
Oh, I like that!
Whoa! There's... there's a plane!
Oh, wow!
Look at that!
Huh? What...
what did you say?
I think she said she forgot
her hat.
Oh, boy, Elmo can't hear
what anybody is saying.
What?
What?
I think Elmo said he'd rather
be crocheting.
Oh.
What?
Oh, boy.
Elmo can't hear anybody.
Boy, Elmo wishes he had a
walkie-talkie.
That's a great idea, Elmo.
Huh?
All right, Wanda.
Do your thing.
Ah, the wind makes it
hard for us to hear,
poof in some walkie-talkies
to make things clear.
Ah! Ha ha ha!
Cool!
Oh! Oh! This is Elmo
in Balloon Explorer .
Balloon Explorer ,
can you read Elmo? Over.
Oh, um, this is Rosita
in Balloon Explorer .
Um, I cannot read you,
but Big Bird and I can hear
you ("very excellent.")
Yep.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, how about you,
Balloon Explorer ? Over.
Hey, where this thing come from?
Balloon explorer ,
are you there? Over.
Oh, boy.
This is yummy. Mmm!
Yes, we hear you loud and... oh!
No, Cookie.
No. Do not eat the walkie-talk...

It is I, Grover, hearing you fine.

So is everybody ready to head back?
Me ready.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I'm ready.
Sí.
OK, Abby, where's Sesame Street?
Uh...
Uh...
Uh...
We're lost!
And so hungry!
Ohh!
Oh, my.
Nothing looks familiar.
Oh, don't worry.
Abby will find a way home.
Isn't that right, Abby?
Oh, that's right.
Silly me. I've got my wand.
Yeah.
I'll just poof us back.
Good.
Oh, got it.
We flew too far and lost our way,
take us back to Sesame Street
straight away-y!
Oh! Oh!
My wand! Oh!
Oh! My wand!
Oh, no! Oh, no!
Oh!
Oh, no!

Whoo!

I can't wait to use it
to build my new nest.
Ahh!
Hey, hey! Yeah!
Up here, birdie, up here! Up up!
Oh, look! That nice birdie
caught my wand.
Yeah!
Thank you, birdie.
Oh! Oh! Great idea.
She dropped it on the hood.
I'll get it.
Whoa! Whoa!
No, no, no.
Abby needs to steer the balloon.
Yeah, Elmo's got it.
Ohh?
Wow!
Whoa!
Oh, no!
Elmo's up a lot higher
than he thought he was.
Ok.
Hurry, Elmo!
Abby needs her wand.
Grover, Elmo knows that Grover's
trying to help Elmo,
but Elmo needs to concentrate
right now, ok?
Oh, ok.
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Aah!
Grover!
Oh, right, yes.
Sorry. Sorry. Yes.

zipping my lips shut.

Ok.

Whoa!
Oh, I can't take much more of
this, Big Bird. Oh! Oh!
Whoa! Ohh!
Me no can take much more of this.
Oh, dear!
Ohh! Oh...
Birdie! Oh, boy!
Oh!
Oh, boy.
Aah!
Be careful, Elmo.
Oh, I shouldn't have looked.
Oh, Elmo, are you ok?
Yeah, Elmo's ok.
This is wracking my little nerves.
Yeah, me, too.
I feel so bad I couldn't help you.
Oh, what's a fairy without
her wand?
Huh?
Oh! I'm still a fairy.
I can fly.
Elmo, take the wheel.
Ok.
Yeah, ok.
I'll be right back.
Ha ha ha!
Where's that bird?
On top of your balloon.
Huh?
I'm gonna get you!
Careful.
Here I come.
She's coming after me.
Oh, my, oh, my.
How I wish she couldn't fly.
Ah! Whoa...
Abby, what happened?
Well, first the birdie took
my wand,
and then she froze my wings!
What?!
Wait.
Oh, no!
There she goes!
Elmo, follow that bird!
Yes, ma'am.
Here we come!
Whoa!
I can't take the suspense!
Me neither!

Yeah, and it's right here in
our town. Who knew?
So, what's this about a wand?
Oh, it's my magic wand.
We're all looking for it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And we got to find it so we
can go home.
A bird took it, but not me.
I saw a bird.
Did the bird have
a bunch of pink feathers right here?
Yeah!
Yeah!
I saw her.
She flew that way.

What?
Come on!
Oh, you're right.
Wait for me!
I'm right with you!
Oh! Oh!
Oh!
Oh, poor pretty elephant.
That must have really hurt.
Yeah. Oh, here.
Elmo will help you.
Uhhhhh...
Oh, boy.
Ay, mama.
Are you ok?
Oh, yes, why, thank you very much.
Oh, boy.
Elephants don't belong in trees.
No.
Birdies do.
Yeah, birdies.
Ah! Wait a minute.
That's no elephant!
That's the bird!
Aah!
Ohhh!
Follow that elephant!
Ohh!
This day just keeps getting weirder.
Whoa! Sorry, folks.
Got to fly!
Oh, oh, oh!
What? Oh, useless elephant wings.
Oh... There! Oh!
Hey! Hi, hi, hi, hiya.
Yeah, I'm an elephant,
and I'm getting in the back.
Go!
What?
Adios, stick chasers!
No!
In the pedicab.
Got to roll.
Wait! Wait!
You follow the elephant,
and I'll get the balloons.
I hope you get your wand back.
Come on, everybody!
Oh, here.
This way, Carl can tell Elmo
if Carl sees the elephant.
Roger, Elmo.
We'd love to help.
Oh, thanks, guys!
Bye!
Bye!
Follow that elephant!
Hello? Hello?
Enter! Enter!
Hello? Enter! Enter!
Uh, Grover, do you mean "come in"?
Oh, yes. Right. Whatever.
I have good news.
We have found Abby's wand.
You welcome.
Really?
Yes, yes,
but apparently, it got soggy
from being in the birdie's beak.
Soggy?
Soggy?
Ewww...
Yeah, and wiggly.
Me found it in a whole box
of wiggly wands.
Yeah, we think
it must be some kind of
soggy wand lost and found.
Ugh!
Grover, that sounds like noodles!
Oh, yeah, look at that.
They are noodles.
Yeah, me thought they looked familiar.
Ahhum!
Mmm! Ooh! Nom, nom!
Mmm, nom, nom!
Ohh. Nom, nom, nom, nom!
A noodle is not a wand!
No.
And, Cookie Monster,
stop nom-nom-nomming so loud
over the walkie-talkie!
Nom, nom, nom, nom!
Ahh... Sorry.
Over and under.
Oh!
Now we're never gonna catch up
to that pedicab driver!
No.
We might.
You know, he's pedaling
an elefante around.
How far can he go?
Let's go!
Yeah! Ha ha ha!
Ohh! Uhh!
Oh, why are you stopping? Oh...
Oh! They're here!
Oh! Oh!
("Elephant!")
Oh! Walk out the pain.
Walk out the pain.
Oh, where do I go?
Walk out the pain.
Oh! Uhh!
Oh, excuse Elmo, Mr. Pedicab Man.
Yeah.
But have you seen an elephant
go by here?
Yes.
Where?
That way.
Oh.
Gracias.
Thank you. Come on!
Thank you, Mr. Pedicab Man!
Ha ha ha!
I'm gonna be so sore tomorrow.
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Oh, Mommy! Ohh...
Wow!

Heh heh heh!
Oh, I know this dance.
My ("Grandma") taught it to me.
It's the national dance of Mexico.
Wow!
Oh, they're all dressed so fancy.
Sí.
Oh. Are they having a party?
Oh, no. That's how you
dress when you dance
("The Tapatío Syrup.")
Jarabe Tapa-what, now?
("Tapatio syrup")
is the Mexican Hat Dance.
Oh, cool!
Ah!
Elmo doesn't think we're
in Chinatown anymore.
Oh, wait a second.
We have been running a long time.
Oh!
Do you think we ran all the
way to Mexico?
Wow!
Hola.
They even speak Spanish!
("Hi. Pardon me.")
Are we in Mexico?
Ha ha! No.
You're just in a part of town
where a lot of people from
Mexico live.
Oh.
Sonia, hurry.
Oops. Got to run.
Ok.
I mean dance.
Ha ha! Bye.
Wow.

kinds of places?
I mean, you can turn the corner
and be in another amazing neighborhood.
Yeah!
Ohh. Ha ha!
Oh, this is my favorite part.
Look, look!
Ooh, I love it.
Now, where could that
elephant birdie be?
I know. If I were an elephant,
where would I be?
Where... where... where
could you hide?
I mean, you're humongous.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ooh, I love this dance.
I think I found it.
Catch it!
I got to get out of here!
Elmo, Abby!
Ooh!
Why am I an elephant? Oh!
Over there!
No, no, no, no! Over there!
Follow me.
Ooh, she went that way!
Huh?
Huh?
Abby, where'd you go?
Oh! Oh, no.
Huh?
Huh?
Oop.
Ha ha!
Ok, I got to...
I got to go. I got to go.
Where is the elephant?
Come on. Come on.
Come on. Hmm?
Hmm?
Huh?
Hmm?
How can we be missing
this giant thing?
How do we keep missing her?
No? No? Uh...
Where did it go?
I don't know.
Come in, all wand searchers.
I have found Abby's wand.
You did?
Yes! I have it now.
It is long, right?
Yes, yes.
Yes, my wand is long.
Yeah!
And it has ridges?
Ah, ah...
Ridges?
And it is covered in cinnamon
and sugar...
Ay, Grover.
Are you talking about a churro?
What is a churro?
Um, a churro is kind of
like a doughnut,
only it's long and crunchy.
My abuela makes them.
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom!
Yeah, that a churro.
Uh, never mind.
Over and above.
That looked good.
Delicious.
You got any more of those
churro thingies
back there? Yeah?
Ooh! Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
Yes.
Nom, nom, nom.
Now we got to find that elephant.
Yeah.
Ok.
Let's go!
Ooh, Sonia, here.
Would you let us know if you
see a magic wand?
It belonged to Abby,
and she lost it.
Claro. I'd love to help.
("Oh thanks friend.")
You know what?
I love your dance. Ha ha!
Adios, Rosita.
Adios.
Hee hee! Wow.
Well, any sign of the elephant?
Oh, no, but Elmo sees
a beautiful crowd and...
smells wonderful food.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Wherever we are is not a
Mexican neighborhood anymore.
Hi.
Oh, hi.
Hi!
This neighborhood has a lot
of families
that have moved here from
West Africa, like mine.
Oh!
Ooh.
My family's from Nigeria.
Wow!
Oh, wow.
Another new neighborhood!
We're traveling to all these
amazing neighborhoods
and meeting all these great friends.
Yeah! Oh, just like in Nina's book.
Yeah. What?
Wha...?
("Elephant") Right?
Oh, oh! Sounds like it's
coming from over there.
Oh, bye-bye. Thank you.
Bye. Bye-bye.
Bye!
Come on. Let's go.
Oh, oh!
They're coming. Ohh.
I'm so tired of fleeing.
Oh, I wish I were a human being.
Oh! Whoa!
Weirdest day ever.
Oh, ho ho! Over there!
Wait for me.
This way? Huh?
Oh, wait a minute.
It wasn't an elephant stomping.
Oh, it was the sound
of a boomy drum.
Yeah. Um, excuse me.
Um, have you seen an elephant
around here today?
Mm-hmm.
No. I don't think I've seen
an elephant
around here ever.
All right. Hmm.
Oh, let's ask the lady.
Hi! Excuse me.
Oh, hi! I'm a person.
Yeah...
Nice to meet you.
And nice to meet you.
Uh-huh.
Um, have you seen an elephant?
Have I seen one?
Uh... no.
I'm just doing human being things.
What's so funny?
What? What is it?
Is it me?
Is it because I'm a human?
No. I asked Zaki if he saw the elephant,
and he said, no, and it'd be
pretty hard to miss.
You know, because it's an elephant.
Yeah! They're huge.
Ha ha!
I didn't hear you say any of that.
Because I said it with my drum.
Onyi and I made up a secret
drumming code
with our friends in music class.
A secret code?
Yeah. We can send messages
to our friends around town,
even way across the park.
Wait. Wait. I just realized something.
That elephant has my magic wand.
That means that she could just
poof herself into anything.
She could maybe be a bunny or
a dog or maybe even a moose.
Wha... I wouldn't want to be
a moose. Uh...
Wha... what do you mean?
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
tell me more about your drum.
Yeah!
Oh, yeah.
Uh, ok.
It's called a talking drum.
My family brought it with us
when we moved from Liberia.
Hmm, fascinating.
When I squeeze the sides,
it makes it sound higher
and lower, like this. See?
Ha ha ha!
Oh, yeah.
That's fun.
It makes me want to shake
a tail feather.
Wait. Hey, guys.
Guys, guys! We got to focus.
Huh?
How are we going to find
a bird that isn't a bird?
Hmm... Um...
Uh, well...
it will probably act like
a bird, right?
Uh-huh!
Ohh!
What? What?
Hmm?
Wha...?
Ooh.
Wait a minute!
That's not a person.
That's a...
Play more of your drum for me.
Bird!
Got to fly. Bye.
Oh!
Yay! I'm me again. Yes!
No!
She turned herself back into
a bird and...
bye-bye, birdie.
Ha ha ha! Bye.
Ha ha!
Oh, we were so close.
I can't believe it.
Now I'll never get my wand back.
No.
And Elmo will never get back
to Sesame Street
in time for dinner.
Wait. You're from Sesame Street?
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
I know where that is.
You do?
Yeah.
It's just a few blocks that way.
We're basically neighbors.
I could take you home right now.
Ha ha!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
That's perfect.
Oh, that's wonderful.
Well, well...
Yeah. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yes.
Except...
What?
Um...
Well, what are we waiting for?
You know, let's go home already.
Yeah, but what about Abby's wand?
Oh, well, it's ok, Elmo.
We'll just leave without it.
But Abby loves magic.
Yeah, but look at all
the trouble I caused.
I poofed up some balloons
without even thinking that
the wind would blow them away.
Then I dropped my wand,
and, you know, if Onyi
didn't know the way home,
then I would have gotten us
lost for good.
Don't be sad, Abby.
Listen, if we hadn't floated
away from home,
we wouldn't have traveled to
all these new neighborhoods
and met our new friends, right?
Yeah!
Oh, and Elmo loves making
new friends.
And we got to see a person
turn into a bird by magic.
Seriously! It was awesome.
Yeah!
Just because you made a mistake,
that's no reason to give up, Abby.
Oh, thanks, Onyi, and thanks, everybody.
Oh, but I'm just a fumble-finger
garden fairy
who can't even fly.
There's no way I'm getting
my wand back now.
Well, yeah, but... but Abby
made friends
all over town today.
That's right.
And if we all work together,
we can totally help you find
your wand, right?
Yeah. Oh, whoa.
Oh, what?
Attention, all wand finders.
The birdie is a birdie again,
and she has Abby's wand. Over.
Does anybody see a birdie
with a wand?
Ah! There it is!
Huh?
Hey, this is Sonia.
I see the bird. It has the wand.
Oh, Sonia sees the birdie.
How do you know Sonia?
Huh?
How do you know Sonia?
We're friends. We've known
each other since kindergarten.
Oh, yeah!
Well, let's go.
Yeah, let's go!
Yeah.
Is that Onyi and Zaki?
Yes, but where is the birdie?
Let's see.
It flew past...
Oh, those talking boxes
just cause trouble.
I wish they'd run off on the double.
Sonia, where are you?
I'm in the park by the...
Whoa! Hey!
A whoa-hey?
Elmo doesn't know what a
whoa-hey is.
Whoa! Hey!
Huh?
Oh, yeah.
Whoa! Hey! Hey!
That's not a walkie-talkie.
It's a runnie-talkie.
Eh! Oh! Uh!
Uh! Get back here.
Ugh!
Got it!
Got it!
Got it!
Got it!
Got it!
Got
it!
Ow. Ooh.
Ha ha ha!
Shh. Listen.
Sonia's using our code.
Well... well, what's she saying?
The bird is flying
over the playground with the
big mural.
Oh!
Well, then let's go!
Come on.
Come on, everybody.
Yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah.
We found Sonia!
Sonia!
It worked!
Where's the birdie?
She was right here,
but she flew off,
and I have no idea where she went.
Aw.
Man!
Hear that? Drumming.
Wait. Wait a second.
If you and Sonia and Onyi
are here, who's there?
Are you sure this is gonna work?
No. But that's the bird
they're looking for.
It's our only chance.
It's Carl!
He sees the bird in Chinatown.
Oh, cool!
Yes!
Wait a minute.
How do you know Carl?
We had a music class together.
He's the one who started
the drum code.
Oh.
Wait. Listen.
Oh, no.
What?
What? What is he saying?
What is he saying?
The bird is flying away.
Oh, no.
How will we ever catch it now?
Hello down there.
What is that?
Whoa.
Big Bird!
Hi! Sorry it took me so long.
I was heading to get the balloons
when I found this tai chi class
in the park. Ahh.
Very centering. Ooh, ooh.
Look at this one.
Mmm.
Ahh.
Ok. Ah.
Hee hee.
Let's go.
Yeah!
Oh, let me help you, Big Bird.
Gracias, Rosita.
We'll follow.
All right.
Uh!
We're on our way.
Oh, ha ha! Look, look.
Grover and Cookie Monster's
balloon is flying again.
Yay!
I have to say,
it was a pretty brilliant idea
to fix the hole in our balloon
with a pizza.
Mm-hmm.
Cheesy pepperoni mushroom pizza.
Not only yummy,
it pretty sticky, too.
Yeah, good patch.
Good patch.
That was a great patch.
Yeah!
Pretty genius, I'd say.
Yeah.
High five.
High five.
Why isn't Carl drumming anymore?
Oh, because Carl is down there.
Oh! Yay, Lucy!
Yay, Carl!
They all know each other?
Huh. I guess our town's
not so big after all.
We tried to follow the bird,
but it was too fast.
Ooh! There it is.
Grover, the birdie is
right in front of you.
Grab the wand, Grover.
Grab it.
Ok. Ok. Gonna try.
Oh, oh...
Ok, you got this.
It's going over here.
Over here now.
There he goes.
Seriously? No? Oh.
Hey!
Got to wait for him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here it comes.
Here come birdie.
Ah! Ha ha ha!
I got it. I got it.
♪ I got it, I got it... ♪
♪ He got it, he got it ♪
Oh, hey, look, Grover,
it raining pizza.
Oh, I did not hear that
on the weather today.
Look at the pepperoni, mushroom,
extra cheese.
Sort of looks like our pizza.
Yeah... d...
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
Ooh! I wish we were stopping
instead of dropping.
What happened?
We just stopped.
Ah. We stopped for some reason.
In mid air.
Wow! Nice stopping spell, Grover.
Hmm? Oh. Yeah.
Ah, ha ha. I meant to do that.
Boy, that wand look yummy.
Hmm? No. No,
Cookie Monster. It is not food.
Here. You better take this.
I have seen what he can do
to a churro. Hyah!
Ah! All right, Wanda!
Yes! Come here, Wanda!
Whoa!
Oh! I got it.
Yay!
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Oh, Wanda, I missed you so much.
Ooh, I'll never let you go again.
Hee hee!
And now for some magic.
OK, um, plus is always .
Make that balloon as good as new.
Whoa!
Look at that.
Thank you! Thank you!
Oh, yeah.
It's almost dinnertime.
Well, we'd better start heading home.
Oh. Well, hold on.
Elmo wants to say good-bye
to his new friends.
("I also.") Me, too.
Yeah. Oh, ok. Well, will you
guys stay with the balloons?
Oh, yeah, sure. Sure.
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Ok, we'll be back in a jiffy.
Yeah.
Here we go.
Um, let me see.
Here go Elmo, Rosita, and I
down to the ground to say good-bye.
Whoo!
Whoa.
Yay!
Ha ha ha!
Oh, thank you.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
Thank you, everybody.
Yes.
I would have never gotten
my wand back
without all of you.
It was so kind of you to help.
You're welcome.
We're glad.
Boy, Elmo's so glad that
we're friends.
Yeah!
Me, too.
Me, too. Yes.
Oh, hey!
What's the big idea
of chasing me all day?
Give me back my stick.
Oh, this? This is my magic wand.
We need it to get back home.
Mm-hmm.
Magic wand?
Oh. That explains so much.
Didn't you wonder why we've
been chasing you around
all day?
I figured you were building a nest
and wanted the stick, too.
I mean, it's a good-looking stick.
Huh? Can't argue with that.
But wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
All this time, birdie was just
trying to build a home?
Well, yeah, I used to have
a nest, but it blew away.
Aww...
Anyway, sorry I took
your stick... uh, wand.
I wouldn't have taken it if I'd
known it was yours.
Well, I'm off to find somewhere
to build my home.
Ah, but wa... wait a minute.
Hold on, birdie.
Elmo knows the perfect place.
You do?
Sure. Ooh!
And Elmo will show you because
it's Elmo's home, too.
Sesame Street!
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah? Ooh!
Hey, follow our balloons.
Oh, I will. Ok, thanks.
Toodlie-loo.
Bye!
Will you come visit us
on Sesame Street?
Yeah.
Of course.
Of course.
Definitely.
If you visit us, we'll show
you other neighborhoods, too.
All right!
Hooray!
Whoo-hoo!
And you can meet more of our friends.
That'd be wonderful.
Great!
This is how you say,
"Bye-bye, friends."

Welcome to Sesame Street.
Yeah.
Abby and Elmo are waiting for Telly.
I got it, I got it, I got it,
I got it, I got it!
Look at this! I got it!
The book we've all been
waiting for.
Yes!
"How to be a Knight for a Day."
Yay!
Yes, yes!
Elmo, Abby, and Telly are
going to be knights today.
And this book is gonna tell
us how!
Yeah, baby!
Whoo-hoo!
So what does it say, Telly?
What do we do?
Let's take a look.
It says here... hmm... uh, "If you
want to be a knight for a day,
you need to wear a suit
of shining armor."
Ah. Like this. See?
Oh, cool! That's a suit...
a suit of shiny armor.
Shining armor!
Shining armor!
Shiny armor!
Well, what are we waiting for?
Shining armor!
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
I'm Sir Telly!
And I'm... whoa... Sir Abby!
And Elmo... oops...
is Sir Elmo!
And we are the Knights
of Sesame Street!
Sweet!
Fierce!
Magical!
Now that we're knights,
Sir Telly, what do we do?
Good question.
I will look in the book.
Oh. Who turned out the lights?
Hello?
It's Sir Telly's armor.
What?
Sir Telly's armor!
I... I... the thing.
Ok. That's better.
Let's see.
Things that knights do.
"Once you are in your armor"
heh heh heh,
there it is, yeah...
"you must sing a knight song."
A knight song!

Oh. Yes, yes, right, right.
Ok. Pa... ohh!
Let's see. Uh-oh.
No problem, no problem.
Got it. You see?
Oh, good.
Ok. "It is a knight's duty to
go on a quest"!
A quest!
A quest!
A quest!
Well, what are we waiting for?
A quest!
Um...
Anybody, uh,
know what a quest is?
No, Uh-uh.
No.
Well, maybe the book will
tell us.
Aha!
Good idea, but first,
lift this up here.
Ok. Ah. "A quest is a search.
A knight must go and look for something."
Ah. We have to go and look
for something.
What do we look for?
I don't know.
Let's put our heads
together and think.
Oh, Ok. Oh.
Hmm.
Think, think, think.
Hey. What's that?
Huh? What?
Come on. This way.
Ok, Ok, Ok.
Hi.
Look. It's the letter "Y"!
Aw. What's the matter, "Y"?
I'm sad.
Oh, no. Why are you sad?
Well, I know I'm a "Y,"
but what's my
purpose in life?
Huh?
Well, why am I "Y"?
Huh?
The letter "Y" is the letter "Y".
Why does the letter "Y" want
to know why the "Y" is
the letter "Y"?
Huh?
The letter "Y" has a yyy, yyy sound.
Yyy, yyy, yyy, yyy.
Ah. Here I go.
Yyy, yyy, yyy.
Yeah. And it begins a lot of words.
Really? What words?
Um... wait, wait, wait, wait.
I know this one, I know this one.
"Y" words, "Y" words.
Uh, er...
Sir Elmo can't think of any either.
Me neither.
Ohh.
Wait! I've got it!
Huh?
This is our quest!
What is our quest, Sir Telly?

with the letter "Y"!

Ok. Oh.
That's right!
Knights of Sesame Street!
And we are on a quest.
We are here in this quaint
veterinarian's office to see
if there are any animal
names that begin
with the letter "Y".
Oh. Um, hmm.
There's a chicken.
Oh. Look, look, look.
Well, does a chicken... does
a chicken begin
with the letter "Y"?
Doesn't sound like it.
If it began with "Y,"
wouldn't it be a yicken?
Yeah. Yeah. Oh.
There's a penguin.
Well, does penguin
begin with a "Y"?
I don't think so.
Wouldn't that be yenguin?
Well, I guess there are no
animals here whose names begin
with the letter "Y".
Aw. I'm sorry, guys.
Oh, no!
Oh, oh, oh. Don't worry, "Y".
We'll find something somewhere else.
That's right. After all,
we are the Knights
of Sesame Street.

I'd love to help you guys
with your quest,
but I got to answer the phone.
Oh. Ok, Sir Knights,
let's look for "Y" things.
Well, here's a towel.
Does towel begin with the
letter "Y"?
I don't think so.
That would be a yowel.
Oh. What about this sock?
Does sock begin with the
letter "Y"?
Doesn't sound like it.
That would be a yock.
And these pants, they'd be yants.
Oh, no.

Thanks anyway, Alan.
Guess we should go look
someplace else.
Wait. That's not a hairy cow.
I'm a yak.
