(the title appears on-screen as the 2002 version of the theme plays. Scene then fades to Ernie and Bert in a studio)
Ernie: You know, Bert, we've had music shows for the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and now 2000s. Are these the same show, or different shows?
Bert: Well, they most certainly are...
(Bert and Ernie notice that they are on camera)
Ernie: Oh, hello there. I'm Ernie.
Bert: And I'm Bert.
Ernie: As you know, this is the Sesame Street 2000s Music Show, brought to you by the number 2000.
Bert: That's right!
Ernie: If you want to request a song, just call our redundant toll-free number, 555-1234. But first, here is a song on the importance of healthy eating.

(scene dissolves to A Cookie is a Sometimes Food)

Bert: That was great. Cookies are a sometimes food, especially when me and Ernie have them.
(phone rings. Ernie presses a button, and in a circle a librarian anything muppet is shown)
Ernie: Hello, you're on the air!
Librarian: Yes, I would like to hear a song about my favorite letter.
Ernie: Okay, and will you tell us what your favorite letter is?
Librarian: Y.
Bert: Uh, because we don't know what your favorite lette ris. Now will you please tell us?
Librarian: (getting frusterated) Y!
Ernie: Because if you don't tell us, we could accidently play a song about the wrong letter...
Librarian: (frusterated) MY FAVORITE LETTER IS THE LETTER Y, THE SECOND-TO-LAST LETTER OF THE ALPHABET. NOW WILL YOU PLEASE PLAY IT FOR ME?
Ernie: Oh, why didn't you say so?
Bert: I don't know why we didn't know your favorite letter is Y, but here is a good song about it!

(several "strips" of the screen transition to Don't Know Why Y Didn't Come)

Bert: And now, here are two songs to encourage the importance of sleep.

(cut to Every Kitty Sleeps and Sleep)

(Grover is now in the studio)

Grover: Helllooo, everybody!!! I am Grover, and Ernie and Bert went home to take a nap, and have put me in charge. So call and make your requests to me.
(phone rings. Grover presses a button. A circle appears, with Fat Blue in it)
Fat Blue: Oh, no, it's you again!
Grover: That is right, sir.
Fat Blue: Anyway, will you please play Everybody's Song for me?
Grover: Of course I will. Here is everybody's song!

(Grover presses a button, and the screen diagonally from the bottom left hand corner scrolls to Oscar's version of Bein' Green, with the introduction cut out)

Fat Blue: You played the wrong song.
Grover: Oh, I am so sorry. I will now play... What song did you want to hear again?
Fat Blue: (sighs) Everybody's Song.
Grover: Okay, here is your request.

(Grover presses a button, and the screen fades to Monkey's Under My Bed)

Fat Blue: (acting very angry) Messed up again!
Grover: Oh, I am so sorry.
Fat Blue: Oh, never mind. I'll just..
Grover: Oh, wait!
Fat Blue: What?
Grover: I just found a button that's labled "Everybody's Song". I will push that, and you will get your song.
Fat Blue: Well, I'd better...
(Grover presses a button, but instead of the song playing, the controll panel pops up and knocks Grover down)
Grover: Ooohhh, maybe I was suppoosed to press ther button that was above the label, instead of the one underneath it.
(Grover presses the button, but then the ceilling falls on Grover)
Grover: Ohhhhh, just like on Soap, ohhh... I know! I'll press the label!
(Grover presses the label, and the screen scrolls to the right, leading to Everybody's Song with Miles and Gabbi)

(Ernie and Bert are back in the studio)

Ernie: Well, we're back from our nap.
Bert: We hope that Grover did a good job.
Ernie: But now, it is time for one last song.
Bert: Yeah!
Ernie: The final song of the day is A New Way to Walk!
Bert: What the...?

(four-way diagonal split screen transition leads to A New Way to Walk with Destiny's Child)

Bert: Well, that was the show for today.
Ernie: Do you think we will do another one fo these decade shows again?
Bert: Well, maybe next decade, if Sesame Street is still on the air.
Ernie: And this decade isn't even over yet, so we could still do a second one.
Bert: And we could do more shows for 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s music, and maybe even a 1969-1970 request show...

(their voices fade out as the closing music and credits play)
