Season 6: Lefty the Salesman sells letters/Big Bird and Grover learn about DANGER

Sponsors: C, G, 9


Scene 1: Lefty the Salesman sneaks onto Sesame Street and backs up into Bob, startling them both. Lefty asks Bob if he’d like to buy something special, and opens his trench coat to reveal a letter C. Lefty tells Bob about the great words that start with C (coat, candy, and cricket), but Bob has no need for a C. He would prefer a B because his name starts with B. Lefty cuts him off and leaves to find “another customer with more alphabetical appreciation!”

Cartoon: C is for Canary

Muppets: Kermit lectures about the hand

Film/Song: Henson #9

Scene 2: Lefty meets Susan and offers her a letter G. Lefty lists some G words (go, grocer, and glasses) to pique Susan’s interest, but Susan doesn’t want a G. Besides, she already has a collection of G’s, which she pulls out of her purse. Lefty: “This street is getting weirder and weirder by the minute…”

Lefty says that both letters will cost him a quarter, which Mr. Hooper gives to him. To show his gratitude, Mr. Hooper also gives Lefty a cheeseburger and a garden salad on the house.

Muppets: Bert notices that Ernie is taking glasses of water out of the apartment. When Bert presses him for an explanation, Ernie says that the faucet broke, so he’s bailing water before the apartment floods…but unfortunately he’s too late.

Cartoon/Song: “That’s About the Size of It” (by Bud Luckey)

Cartoon: Letter G drawing with kid voiceover

Film: The Mad Painter #9

Cartoon: G is for Giggle (voice by Allen Swift)

Film: Swinging gibbons (music by Joe Raposo)

Scene 4: Big Bird explains what the word DANGER means, but he doesn’t notice the DANGER sign next to Biff and Sully’s cement truck, which is unloading wet cement right where he’s standing. Biff and Sully return with some refreshments from Hooper’s Store to find Big Bird stuck in the cement. Biff: “Oh brother, Sully…we can’t leave our truck alone for a minute!”

Cartoon: Various renderings of the word DANGER (art by the Hubleys)

Muppets/Song: “Mahna-Mahna”

Big Bird thanks them and goes on his merry way…but he fails to see another DANGER sign by the manhole, causing him to fall into it with a loud crash. Biff: “Gee whiz, Sully…we can’t leave that manhole alone either, huh?”

Cartoon: Small, smaller, and smallest animals

Scene 6: Oscar has a DANGER sign outside his trashcan. Grover asks what this means, so Oscar explains that “danger” means to be careful and watch out. Grover wonders why he should be careful, and Oscar tells him that he’s going to play tag. Grover: “Oscar, that is silly! Tag is not a dangerous game!” Oscar: “Oh yeah? Well I’m playing tag with my pet rhinoceroses! Tell that to them!” As the game begins, the street starts shaking, scaring Grover out of his mind.

Thinking she’s been fooled, Maria angrily yells at Oscar and throws the hat into the can. After she storms off, Oscar emerges and tells the guys that he really does want the hat after all, but he wouldn’t accept it from “Miss Smiley-Face” unless she acted really, really grouchy toward him.
