00:00My Outro For My 20th Birthday
00:30Hey, Chris, have a good day, Chris.
00:46Oh, you too.
00:50Sir.
00:52Mmm.
00:54Alphabet soup.
00:56Mmm.
00:59Hey, Bert, ready to go shopping?
01:01Just a minute, Ernie. I want to check the weather.
01:04Check the weather? But Bert, we're just going across the street to Hooper's.
01:08Can't be too careful.
01:11Hi there, folks. This is Gale Warning, and here's your weather.
01:15Looks like it's going to be another sunny day sweeping those clouds away.
01:21Ah, gee, I wish I could be a weathercaster like Gale Warning.
01:25Bert, that would be a great job for you. You could forecast the weather on TV.
01:30Oh, no, no, no, Ernie. I only wish I could be a TV weathercaster because there's no way I could ever be one.
01:36Now, over here in the heartland, we've got snow. Yes, we've got snow and some more snow.
01:41Not in a million years.
01:43Oh, sure you could, Bert.
01:47Oh, I think you'd be great on TV, Bert. You could tell everyone the weather.
01:52You could tell them to put on a hat because it is going to be sunny.
01:55Or to wear a scarf because it's going to be cold.
01:59Or to wear rain boots all the time because you never know.
02:03You never know, Ernie. It is so true. The weather changes all the time.
02:07But I can't be on TV, Ernie. Remember when you made that video last week?
02:14Ernie here with my old buddy Bert.
02:20Ernie, what are you...
02:21Say hi to the camera, Bert.
02:24Bert? Hey, Bert, are you okay?
02:30Bert? You're really hungry, huh, Bert?
02:34Cameras make me so nervous I freeze up.
02:37I'll never be a TV weathercaster for the simple reason that you will never, ever see me on TV.
02:50Hi, Bert.
02:52Hi, Elmo.
02:53Oh, Chris, Elmo has a question.
02:56Oh, hey, Elmo, just a second.
02:58Who ordered two slices of banana toast?
03:00Ah, that was me, Chris.
03:05I ordered one, two, two tasty slices of banana toast.
03:15I knew I should have brought an umbrella.
03:19Thank you, Chris.
03:20Oh, sure thing.
03:22Oh, hey, Elmo, what's up?
03:24Boy, Chris is so busy today.
03:26Yeah.
03:27Can Elmo help? What do you say?
03:29Elmo and Chris side by side, running a store together. What do you say?
03:35Elmo, that's so nice of you. And you know what? I really could use some help today.
03:39You got it, buddy. Here we go.
03:41Whoa, whoa, whoa, Elmo, hey, hey, I just don't think you're big enough yet, buddy.
03:46Oh, Chris.
03:47Oh, yes, be right there.
03:49Chris.
03:50Bert, Ernie, I am so sorry for the delay.
03:53It's okay.
03:54How can I help you?
03:55We need some detergent.
03:56Okay, let's see. We have Sunt, we have Yuck-A-Wit, and we have Cleanzo.
04:01I better check the list there, Bert. Oh, right, right, right.
04:03Chris, where's my Alphabet suit?
04:06Right away. Excuse me. Coming up.
04:10Cleanzo, that's it.
04:11Don't worry, Elmo can help you.
04:15Now, where's the Cleanzo?
04:17It's all the way at the top there, Elmo.
04:19It's pretty far. We'll just get...
04:22Don't you worry about it. Don't you worry. You keep shopping. Elmo is here to help.
04:28Boy, it is high, isn't it?
04:33Are you okay?
04:34Elmo's okay.
04:35What happened?
04:36Elmo was trying to help Ernie and Bert get the Cleanzo.
04:40Boy, Elmo wishes that Elmo was big like Chris so he could reach it.
04:45Bert, Ernie, this is for you.
04:48Thank you so much, Chris.
04:50Now, what else do we need?
04:52Hey, Elmo, you said you wish you were big like me?
04:56On a day like today, I wish I were a kid like you.
04:59How about that?
05:01So that whenever I felt tired, like right now, I could take a nap.
05:07Yeah, I'll tell you, if I had one wish, that would be my wish.
05:11Chris, may I please have a birdseed smoothie?
05:15Sure thing, Big Bert.
05:16And a straw?
05:17Coming right up.
05:18Thank you.
05:19See ya.
05:20Bye.
05:24The handprint on the refrigerator was the last clue she needed.
05:28Natalie Neptune had solved the mystery of who took the last cookie from the cookie jar.
05:35Who would do such a thing?
05:39Besides me.
05:42It was...
05:45Professor Peterson!
05:47I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!
05:50You did?
05:51Yeah, I just put all the clues together and I figured it out.
05:55Nice work, Mui Vieng.
05:57Oh, thank you so much.
05:59Oh, how I wish, I wish I could be a real detective like Natalie Neptune and solve mysteries.
06:09If only...
06:10Could I?
06:11What if?
06:12Who knows?
06:13If I could just...
06:14If me only...
06:15If you could...
06:16Just suppose...
06:17Imagine me...
06:18Imagine me!
06:24Imagine me a detective
06:27Trying to find who did the crime
06:31You'd follow footprints, wear disguises
06:34And you'd solve the case just in time
06:37Imagine me
06:41What I could be
06:44Imagine Elmo
06:46Big as fences
06:47Tall enough to reach the highest shelf
06:51Imagine me a kid like Elmo
06:54I'd have the day all to myself
06:57Elmo could be in charge
06:59Make the smoothie
07:01Running, playing, climbing trees
07:04And never hear
07:05And get to hear
07:07Can I get some service, please?
07:11Sorry, coming, Mr. Johnson!
07:12Imagine me
07:16What I could be
07:19Imagine me with a spoon
07:23Now, would that be fun?
07:27Imagine me eating cookies
07:31Every day me eat just one
07:34Ton!
07:36Should we get the one that's lower priced?
07:38Or the one with more in it?
07:40Oh, gee, that's a puzzler, all right.
07:42Look at Bert
07:44Plain old Bert
07:46But inside him something wants to roar
07:50Roar!
07:51Over time, I think the large size is actually the better value
07:54Someday he's gonna cut loose
07:57And let his inner weathercaster soar
08:04Ladies and gentlemen!
08:06It's the TV weathercaster you've all been waiting for!
08:10He's fair, he's breezy, and always mild
08:14Weather alert! It's Bert!
08:17Here he is!
08:22It's Bert! Bert! Bert! Bert! Bert! Bert!
08:31Here I am
08:34Let's look at the weather together
08:37He'll broadcast the forecast for you
08:40The weather to be on the land and sea
08:43And right in your neighborhood, too
08:46In the days to come, no need to be glum
08:50Clouds aren't allowed and what's more
08:53Skies will be clear
08:55From here to next year
08:57With lots of sunny days in store
08:59Yes, sir
09:00With lots of sunny days in store
09:03But, uh, wear your rain boots just in case, huh?
09:08Oh, but cameras make Bert freeze
09:11And feel weak in the knees
09:15Imagine he could imagine like me
09:23If I could just
09:25If I could be
09:27Just suppose
09:29Imagine me
09:36Wonderful! Wonderful!
09:39Now can I have my spoon, please?
09:42Right away, Mr. Johnson!
09:44Hey, Bert, did you decide on detergent?
09:48Delivery for Hoopers?
09:50Hello?
09:51Oh, hi!
09:52Hi!
09:53Oh, you look tired
09:54You must be in charge here
09:55Yes

09:58Please sign right here below the line
10:00Oh, okay
10:01Um, and what is this?
10:02Oh, I don't peek
10:04I just deliver huge, mysterious things
10:06And then leave
10:07Okay
10:11Imagine me as a spaceship
10:13Bringing huge things from beyond the moon
10:17Thank you!
10:19I don't remember ordering anything
10:21What is this?
10:23Whoa!
10:24Whoa!
10:25Hey, what is that?
10:26I have no idea
10:27I've never seen anything like it
10:29Oh, hey, lookie there
10:30There's a big green button right on the front there
10:33Hey, you know, I wonder if that's what makes it go
10:35Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
10:36Can Elmo push the button?
10:37Can Elmo push the button, please?
10:39Sure thing, Elmo
10:40You'd be helping me figure out what it does
10:42What? Really?
10:43Mm-hmm
10:44Elmo's helping!
10:45Yay!
10:53Uh, is that a pickle?
10:55I am the Wish Pickle!
10:57Wish me a wish and it will be done!
11:00Ooh
11:02Eh, I'm kind of a big dill
11:04So, you got a wish?
11:06I can wait, not going anywhere
11:09Wow, a patient pickle that grants wishes?
11:12Who would send me this?
11:13A wish?
11:14Wait, what should Elmo wish for?
11:16Oh, I know what I'd wish for, Elmo
11:18I'd wish that my old bully bird could be on TV
11:22Ooh, one wish coming up
11:23The magic words
11:25Cucumber dill
11:26Cucumber dill
11:27Cucumber dill
11:30Cucumber dill
11:33You got your wish, pickle out
11:35Wait
11:38That's all it does?
11:39Hmm
11:40Hey, uh, hey Bert! Bert!
11:42I just wished on a pickle for you
11:44Bert?
11:45Oh, gee, I guess he went home already
11:47Well, see you guys later
11:49Okay, bye Ernie
11:50See ya Ernie
11:51Um, hey Chris
11:53Hey
11:55Um, do you think that, um, it might be possible for, um, Elmo to make a wish?
12:01Sure thing, Elmo
12:03Maybe it'll do something better this time, huh?
12:05Okay, um, um, okay, let's see
12:07Go!
12:11I am the wish pickle
12:13Wish me a wish and it will be done
12:15I'm kind of a big dill, take your time, I got nowhere to go
12:17Yeah, Elmo wishes to be like Chris and run the store
12:21Hey, I'll tell you what, while we're at it
12:23If Chris wishes, he could be like Elmo and so like he'd take a nap
12:26Oh!
12:27Ooh, double wish
12:29The magic words, cucumber dill, cucumber dill, cucumber dill
12:35You're good!
12:37You got your wishes, pickle out, light
12:41Uh, I guess that's it
12:44Wow, cool!
12:47Whoa!
12:48Wow!
12:50Elmo is big!
12:53My hands weren't red and furry when I left home this morning
12:58You're me!
12:59Chris is Elmo!
13:04Hold on a minute, I'm a kid
13:06I'm too small to run the store now
13:08What am I gonna do?
13:10Chris doesn't have to run the store
13:12Chris can
13:14Cause Chris is big and can reach all the shelves, baby
13:17Yeah, you're right
13:19And I can have a break and go play like a kid, just like I wanted
13:22Don't worry, Elmo plays pretend store all the time and knows what to do
13:27Only, maybe you better cover this machine so nothing weird happens
13:31Good idea
13:33Have fun running the store, Elmo, I mean, Chris
13:37Bye, Chris, oh, Chris means, bye, Elmo
13:40Call if you need help
13:42Uh-huh
13:43Woo-hoo!
13:48Bert, I'm back
13:50Wonderful, wonderful, yes, Guy Smiley here and welcome back to Let's Dance
13:55Let's meet our next contestants
13:57Say hello to Bert and Bernadette
14:00Happy Dancing the Pigeon
14:02Bert!
14:03What are you doing on TV?
14:05What's going on? I don't understand
14:07I was shopping and then, and now I
14:09Oh, that pickle worked
14:11I wish you could be on TV, and you are
14:14Wait, I'm what?
14:15You're on TV
14:16What?
14:17You're on TV, Bert, you're on camera
14:30Oh, Bert, Bert, don't freeze up now
14:32Bert
14:33Uh-oh
14:37Do something, Bert
14:40Oh, boy, you know, time sure zooms by when you're reading Natalie Neptune's story
14:50Yeah, well, tell you what, we can read some more tomorrow
14:52Oh, really?
14:53Uh-huh
14:54Aw, Nina, thanks so much for reading to me
14:56De nada, see you later
14:58Okay
14:59Hasta luego
15:00Okay, bye
15:01Wow, being a detective seems like it would be a really cool job
15:06Hey, it's dark in here, let's turn out the lights
15:09I wish Natalie Neptune were here to help me learn how to solve mysteries
15:14I heard that
15:15Cucumber-dill, cucumber-dill, cucumber-dill
15:19Dirtin'
15:24Did someone say mystery?
15:26I am all over that
15:28What? I can't believe it
15:30It's Natalie Neptune
15:33Great, being a detective and solving mysteries is my job
15:37What is that? A clue?
15:40No, bug
15:42You must be Abby
15:43How did you know that?
15:44Because I did what detectives always do
15:46Huh?
15:47I observed, I investigated, and I deduced
15:50Uh, did what?
15:51I figured it out
15:52Ah
15:53I observed a word written on the cover of your book
15:56You see?
15:58And then I investigated what it said by looking closer
16:02B-B-Y, Abby
16:04So I figured out that your name must be Abby
16:09You like stories
16:11You have good taste in books
16:14And you like to work in the garden
16:16What? That's right, but how did you know all that?
16:21By observing
16:23You have a book
16:25The book is about me
16:27And you've got dirt under your wings
16:30Wow, you are as amazing in real life as you are in my book
16:35Uh, by the way, how did you get out of my book?
16:40I don't know
16:42It's a mystery
16:44A mystery?
16:47One we can solve, uh, together?
16:50Excellent idea, partner
16:53Partner?
16:55Wow, oh boy, oh boy, this is a dream come true
16:58Being a detective with you and solving a mystery
17:01What do we do first?
17:04First, observe by looking closely for clues
17:09You see anything unusual?
17:12Just you
17:14Let's check our surroundings
17:17Gotta love trash day
17:20Just look at all this beautiful junk that was lying around
17:24This is great
17:26What is that?
17:27Oh, that's just Oscar, he's a grouch
17:30Is he a nice grouch?
17:33Uh, eh
17:38Hey, what's in the bag, mister?
17:41Oh, a bunch of junk, and you're not getting any, go find your own
17:45Hey Oscar, we're trying to solve a mystery about how Natalie got here to Sesame Street
17:50Oh, sounds thrilling
17:53Did you see anything unusual today?
17:55Eh, not really, well, unless you count this
17:59Here
18:01Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got some junk to collect
18:05Yeah, yeah, yeah
18:06What does it say?
18:07I don't know, I can't read it
18:09Because it's written in a secret code?
18:11No, it's because I'm four, I don't know how to read
18:14Oh, I should have observed that
18:16Never mind
18:18It's a delivery slip
18:20Something was delivered this morning from the magic something-or-other, I can't read it
18:24Still, magic sounds like a clue, all right
18:26I didn't get here by walking
18:28Well, well, well, does it say where it went?
18:30Good question, yes, to Hooper's store
18:32We have to get there quickly, shall we go by boat or train?
18:35Well, it's right here
18:37Good eye, we make a great team, Abby
18:40Hey, well, come on, maybe we can ask Chris where it was delivered
18:45Excellent idea, let's investigate
18:49Hey, Chris
18:51Oh, hi Abby
18:53We are detectives and we're trying to solve a mystery
18:57Does this mean anything to you?
19:01But look at what Chris can do
19:05Ta-da! Chris can lift two big doggie bags way up high
19:09How wonderful
19:12Yeah, hey Chris, Natalie and I are trying to solve a mystery
19:16Have you noticed anything unusual today, including yourself?
19:21Does Abby mean since Elmo made a wish?
19:24Hey, Chris, I'm in a bit of a hurry here
19:27Oh, okay
19:28Sorry, Abby, Mr. Arfie
19:31Arfie
19:32Mr. Arfie needs Chris' help
19:34That's kind of Chris' job, Chris is in charge of the whole store
19:45You know what? That was really weird
19:48It was?
19:49Yeah, Chris didn't sound like Chris at all
19:52Good observation
19:54Here
19:55What? Oh, a notebook?
19:58Yeah, that's right
19:59If you're going to be a detective, it's important to write down your observations so you remember
20:03Okay
20:04One, something came from a magic store and was delivered to Hooper's
20:09Two, Chris didn't sound like Chris at all
20:13Nope
20:14And he mentioned someone named Elmo who made a wish
20:19Hey, there he is
20:21Come on
20:25Hey, Elmo, Elmo
20:27And Natalie, Neptune and I are detectives
20:30And we're trying to solve the mystery of how she ended up here on Sesame Street
20:35Yes, friendly monster, can you help us?
20:37Have you seen anything?
20:39Uh, I see that
20:41What?
20:42A fantastic formation of cumulus clouds
20:45Elmo, there you are
20:47Hey there, Nina
20:48Elmo?
20:49Uh, did you forget? I'm sitting with you this afternoon while you take your nap
20:54Nap? Can I take a nap now?
20:57Wait, you want to take a nap?
20:58Oh, yeah, it's my wish come true
21:01Well, okay, let's take a nap
21:02Wait, wait, wait
21:04Wow, that was really weird
21:08It was?
21:09Yeah, I mean, Elmo never talks like that
21:14And Chris, he sounded just like Elmo
21:16And then Elmo sounded just like Chris
21:19It sounds like we have another mystery on our hands
21:23But we haven't even solved the mystery of how you got out of my book
21:28But sometimes a lot of little mysteries add up to one big mystery
21:33You solve one, you solve them all
21:35Well, how do we do that?
21:38Well, we gather the facts by observing and investigating
21:44And, oh, and figuring things out
21:46Right, and observing means using all of our senses
21:51So let's do that now
21:52Okay
21:56See anything unusual?
21:58Hmm
22:00No
22:02Smell anything?
22:03Nope
22:04Hear anything?
22:07Hmm, Bert and Bert
22:09I do hear something, I think it's coming from over there
22:13Okay, you go check over there, and I'll go check over there
22:16Okay
22:17Go ahead, Bert
22:19Anything you like
22:21Bert
22:26Hi, Grover
22:27Oh, hello, Abby
22:29Goodness, I wish I could get a job here
22:31So many TVs to watch
22:33That one's my favorite
22:35If you watch closely, an orange sock goes by
22:38Oh, that is old
22:40Now it is gone
22:41You missed it
22:43That is what I call must-watch TV
22:47Hey, Grover, is Bert in here?
22:50I mean, I thought I heard someone call his name
22:53Hmm?
22:54Oh, yes, our friend Bert is on that TV there
22:56Isn't that exciting?
22:58Although mostly he just stands in one place

24:18Oh, this is such terrific practice for being a weathercaster on TV
24:22Use the remote, use the remote
24:26Bert's on every show
24:29What is this? This could be a clue
24:31I better write it down
24:33Looks like we've got another mystery
24:36Boy, I love bulk item trash day
24:39I feel like I hit the mother load
24:55Being a kid is great
24:57I get to take a nap anytime I like
25:04Great drawings
25:06Elmo has some imagination
25:26Huh?
25:28Uh, okay
25:30This is a dream, right?
25:32I'm dreaming in Elmo's imagination?
25:36How cool is that?
25:37All right
25:39Hiya, Elmo
25:41Uh, who are you?
25:43You don't recognize me?
25:45Uh, no
25:47You're not really Elmo, are you?
25:49You're Smart
25:51Whoa, yeah, that's my name
25:54Smarty, and answering questions is my job
25:57Oh, well, that sounds like fun
25:59You know, the store is really busy today
26:02And some days I just wish I had a different job
26:05But I don't know what else I'd do
26:07Well, what do we do to learn something new?
26:10I don't know
26:11We look it up
26:14Getting to work on jobs
26:19There are lots of jobs you can do
26:21There are outside jobs
26:25That looks good
26:36And jobs you do indoors
26:38As you can see, we put some great people on the boarder
26:41Some jobs take special training
26:49Awesome, that looks great
26:51And there are lots of jobs that help people
26:53Everything from being a TV weathercaster
26:56On the East Coast, you may just need to grab a jacket today
26:59Or a crime-solving detective
27:05To being a store manager
27:07Who helps people get the things they need
27:10The choice is yours
27:15Did you learn what you wanted to know?
27:17Yeah, you reminded me how much I love working at Hoopers
27:21I love helping my neighbors
27:23I want to go back to work
27:25Smart choice, not Elmo
27:28Well, my job is calling
27:31Literally, gotta fly
27:33Bye
27:35Smarty
27:37Oh, hello there
27:40Who are you?
27:44That's Mr. Noodle's sister, Ms. Noodle
27:47Oh, hi
27:49Hey, are you packing groceries?
27:57Yo, no, no, no
27:58Don't put the heavy watermelon on top of the eggs
28:03Eggs go on top, watermelon, no
28:06Eggs go on top, watermelon, no
28:09Eggs go on top, watermelon, no
28:13I needed that nap
28:15I'd really like to get back to work, though
28:17But what if Elmo loves the job as much as I do
28:20And doesn't want to stop?
28:26Hey, Cookie Monster
28:28Can you go to Hoopers and ask Elmo if he needs my help?
28:31Okay, this trick question, right?
28:33Because me pretty sure are you, Elmo
28:35I mean, ask Chris
28:37And tell him Elmo said to give you a cookie
28:40Me do it
28:48Huh?
28:52Hey, excuse me
28:54Excuse me, you didn't cut my sandwich
28:57Chris is not allowed to use a knife yet
28:59But come back when Chris is six
29:01Excuse me, sorry, excuse me

29:05Hi, Chris

29:23Tell Chris, I mean, tell Elmo, hurry

32:10An adorable little monster again
32:12And I need to get to work

32:16Elmo and Chris side-by-side
32:18Running the store
32:20Oh, really? Okay
32:22Waffles, they're over there
32:24One place Chris doesn't look
32:26Oh, cheers
32:28Dum-de-dum
32:30Oh, cheers
32:38Hi, little jacket
32:40Dum-de-dum
32:42Oh, that is strange
32:44Yes, our friend Bert
32:46Seems to be on every TV show today
32:48Except for this one
32:50You know what?
32:52I think Natalie should see this
32:54I'm gonna go get her
32:58Oh, hi, Abby
33:00Hi, Cookie
33:02Oh, hi, Abby
33:06I think I saw two Cookie Monsters
33:08Natalie!
33:10And now
33:12The Antiques Show
33:14Another show is starting on the Bert Channel
33:20Now where am I?
33:22What is happening?
33:24Oh, this is so confusing
33:26You are supposed to look at my antique
33:28And tell me how much it is worth
33:30In money
33:32Oh, Bert, this is great
33:34You're on that antique show
33:36You like to watch all the time
33:38I am? Really?
33:40Ahem, ahem, ahem
33:42Okay, so
33:44This industrial antique bobbin
33:46Has been in my family
33:48For over 100 years
33:50Wow, that's impressive
33:52Big bobbin
33:54It's a doozy
33:56Hey, Bert, look at you
33:58You're moving and you're talking
34:00And you're explaining things
34:02Bert, you are ready
34:04Ready for what?
34:06Ready to be a weathercaster on TV
34:08Hey, I'm gonna put on the weather channel
34:10No, no, no
34:12I don't know if I'm ready to do the weather
34:14I think I should stay here
34:16Stay tuned for more of
34:18The Antiques Show
34:20Later, join us as we discover
34:22The Shark Attack
34:24Ernie, quick, change the channel
34:26But, Bert, you just said that
34:28Sharks, hurry, use the remote
34:30Okay, Bert, whatever you say
34:32Oopsie-doodle
34:34What's the matter? What happened?
34:36Um, I think the remote's broken
34:38No! Ernie, sharks
34:40Ernie, you have to save me
34:42Well, uh
34:44Oh, wait, I know, Bert
34:46I wished you into the TV
34:48All I have to do is go to the wish pickle
34:50And wish you back out
34:52Whatever you do, Ernie, just hurry
34:54I think I understand
34:56Your friend Bert
34:58Is on TV
35:00But who is this Ernie fellow?
35:02Well, he's Bert's best friend
35:04But why is Bert calling for Ernie?
35:06It's just one mystery
35:08On top of another mystery
35:10Well, there's Ernie
35:12Oh, gosh, should we investigate
35:14And ask him some questions?
35:16Excellent idea
35:18Oh, the sock is back
35:20Do not worry
35:22I will record it for you for later
35:28Wait, wait, wait, wait, Ernie
35:30Where are you going?
35:32To the wish pickle machine
35:34The wish pickle machine?
35:36I think I know
35:38Why Chris and Elmo don't sound like themselves
35:40And how Bert got into the TV
35:42What, you do?
35:44Yes, let's go over what we observed
35:46Something was delivered
35:48To Hoopers this morning
35:50Chris mentioned making a wish
35:52Yeah, and Ernie mentioned a pickle machine
35:54So from the clues
35:56We can figure out
35:58Wait, there must be a pickle
36:00In a machine
36:02Granting wishes
36:04Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
36:06That's the wish pickle machine
36:08Yeah, that over at Hoopers
36:10You guys got to try it
36:12Oh, I want to try that
36:14I want to try that
36:16What?
36:18I think I did
36:20You see, there was this big box
36:22Outside of Hoopers
36:24Yeah, and well, I leaned up against it
36:26And I said
36:28I wish that Natalie Neptune were here
36:30To help me solve some mysteries
36:32And be a detective
36:34And then I must have wished
36:36You out of my book
36:38And Bert must have wished himself
36:40Into the TV
36:42Bert and Elmo must have switched places
36:44And that's why they're talking like each other
36:46The old switcheroo
36:48Oh, boy, Natalie, you were right
36:50Solving one mystery
36:52Helped us solve all the mysteries
36:54Let's go find the machine
36:56To the machine
36:58Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
37:00There's a wish pickle machine over at Hoopers
37:02You guys got to go try it
37:04Wait, what?
37:06Let's go
37:12Oh, wow, look at that
37:14Thanks, Chris
37:16Bye, Barry
37:18We did it
37:20Oh, boy
37:22Working at a store
37:24Is more than reaching the top shelf
37:26You know
37:28I love this job
37:30I was just having a bad day
37:32Elmo needs a nap
37:34What do you say we go to the pickle
37:36And wish ourselves back to normal
37:38Yeah, that's a great idea
37:40Hey
37:52Why did you go
37:54I don't know, everyone else did
37:56Why is everybody gone
37:58The wish pickle, it's gone
38:00But if it's gone
38:02That means
38:04Bert is stuck in the TV
38:06And we're stuck like this
38:08You know how it feels
38:10When that thing that you need
38:12Isn't there anymore when you need it
38:14You don't know where to turn
38:16You don't know what to do
38:18I hope that sufferer didn't eat it
38:20We need to find that pickle
38:22On the double
38:24Because without that pickle
38:26We're in trouble
38:28Elmo is great, but he likes being Elmo
38:30And me, I would like to be me
38:34Chris is great, too
38:36Elmo should be Chris
38:38And Elmo should be Elmo
38:40We need to find that pickle
38:42On the double
38:44Because without that pickle
38:46We're in trouble
38:48Bert's so good out at sea
38:50But I'd like to see
38:52Bert without watching TV
38:54It's fun to pretend
38:56To be somebody else
38:58But then I want to be me
39:02Elmo must agree
39:06There must be some clue
39:08Something we can use
39:10To solve this mystery
39:14If I were a pickle in a machine
39:16Where do I think I would be?
39:20Where do I think I would be?
39:24Ah! I found a clue!
39:26Is it Pickle Prince?
39:28It can't be! The pickle's in a machine!
39:30Machine Prince?
39:32Well, sort of. It looks like
39:34If it was
39:36Ah! I know where the machine is!
39:40You do?
39:42Follow me!
39:48It's right here!
39:50How did you know it was here?
39:52Well, I observed Oscar
39:54Collecting trash all day long
39:56Then I investigated
39:58And I saw tracks
40:00Leading away from Hooper's store
40:02Then I figured out
40:04That Oscar must have thought
40:06The machine was trash
40:08And brought it here
40:10Nice job, Abby!
40:12What a detective!
40:14Now we can wish everybody back to normal
40:16Hey, hey, hey! What's the big idea?
40:18That's my trash!
40:20Oh, but that's not trash, Oscar
40:22That's a wish pickle machine
40:24Oh, I'll pretend that makes sense
40:26Who wants to go first?
40:28Hurry!
40:31I guess I better go first
40:35I am the wish pickle!
40:37I wished for it to come out of the TV
40:39Sorry, no wish for you
40:41What? No wish for me?
40:43Why not?
40:45Because you already had one
40:47Didn't you read the instructions?
40:49Only one wish per customer
40:51The pickle's not joking
40:53That means everyone has to stay this way forever?
40:56Yeah!
40:58That's right, Red
41:00Tall guy, short guy
41:02Wings girl, you all had your wish
41:04No more!
41:08Hmm, the pickle's right
41:10We all had a wish come true for us
41:12Yeah
41:14All except...
41:18Hey, that's right
41:22I get a wish
41:24Now, what should I wish for?
41:26A nice patch of mud
41:28Or a big bucket of rotten tomatoes
41:32Oscar, you can help everyone
41:34By wishing us all back to normal
41:36You can help Elmo be Elmo again
41:38And Chris be Chris again
41:40And me! And me!
41:42That's right, and you can bring Bert back home
41:44To his nice, shark-free apartment
41:46Some rotten sardines
41:48A hundred rusty cans
41:50No, I know
41:52I am...
41:54I told you only one wish
41:56But I didn't get a wish
41:58Okay, that's kosher
42:00Wish me a wish and it will be done
42:02No rush
42:04No rush? Please rush
42:08I wish...
42:12I wish...
42:16All right, you win
42:18I wish for everybody here to go back to normal
42:20The magic words
42:22Cucumber-dill! Cucumber-dill!
42:24Cucumber-dill!
42:26Wait!
42:28Natalie!
42:30Uh, Pickle
42:32Can you give us a moment?
42:34Of course
42:36I just want to thank you for helping me learn
42:38That I can be a detective just like you
42:40Are you kidding me?
42:42I've had so much fun
42:44And you were born to be an investigator
42:46Just like me
42:48Oh, I'm gonna miss you so much
42:50Don't worry, I'll always be around
42:52All you have to do
42:54Is pick up a book
42:56Can we finish the wish now?
42:58Yeah! Oh, go ahead, Pickle
43:00Okay
43:02Good game!
43:04I win!
43:20I'm me!
43:22Elmo's Elmo!
43:24Thanks, Oscar
43:26Yeah, yeah, yeah, don't mention it
43:28No, really, don't mention it
43:30You'll ruin my reputation
43:32What have I done?
43:34You know, I'm gonna go make sure Bert's back for real
43:38Picking up
43:40One huge thing that was dropped off earlier
43:42Oh, okay
43:44Hey, you look relaxed now
43:46Yeah, I had a nap
43:48Please sign right here below the line that says
43:50Please sign right here
43:52Oh, wow, okay
43:54Um, wait a second, who sent this here?
43:56I did!
43:58You had yourself delivered here?
44:00I'm singing, imagine this, imagine that
44:02Yada, yada, yada
44:04And now I'm off to grant wishes
44:06At a deli in Passaic
44:08Let's roll! Pickle out!
44:10Mr. Wish Pickle
44:12Do you think I could get a wish on the way out?
44:14Oh, yeah, sure, but read the instructions first, will ya?
44:18Hey, I wonder how Bert is doing
44:20Maybe we should check it out
44:22Yeah
44:24Ah!
44:26Oh, no!
44:28Bert's still stuck in the TV!
44:30It's going to be very wet
44:32And the rain will continue
44:34With patches of fog on into the early morning
44:36Wait a minute!
44:38Bert's over there, too!
44:44Well, hey, everyone
44:46Bert was just practicing being a weather forecaster on TV
44:48Yeah, Ernie helped me realize that
44:50I didn't have to be nervous about being on camera
44:52Oh, yeah
44:54At first Bert was so nervous, he couldn't move
44:56Yeah
44:58But then a nice, friendly wrestler came
45:00And helped him get over that
45:02Yeah, real friendly
45:04I just learned I need practice
45:06To be more confident, that's all
45:08Well, okay
45:10I guess I better get back to the store
45:12The store!
45:14We left our groceries there
45:16We'll come with you
45:18Well, that was wild
45:20I must say, I'm happy to be myself again
45:22Yeah, Elmo, too
45:24Oh, wait a minute
45:26What's this?
45:28Oh, a toy plane!
45:30Cool!
45:32Wait for Elmo!
45:36People need me
45:38That's important
45:40I love that I can be of service
45:42And old buddy Bert
45:44Just needed confidence
45:46To get over being nervous
45:48We figured it out
45:50Beyond a reasonable doubt
45:52Detecting is an awesome gig
45:56Running a store is sure hard work
45:58But Elmo's gonna do it
46:00When Elmo's big
46:04Believe in yourself
46:06And you'll see
46:08You can be anything you wanna be
46:12Soon I'll be on TV
46:14I knew that you were going far
46:16I was lost
46:18All at sea
46:20Now you're dancing with a star
46:28Believe in yourself
46:30Try it out
46:32Dream it
46:34Play it
46:36Practice
46:38Believe it
46:40And you'll see
46:42You can be anything you wanna be
46:44You can be anything you wanna be
46:48You can be anything you wanna be
46:52You can be anything you wanna be
46:58Wow! What a day!
47:00But everything's back to normal on Sesame Street
47:04Night night, sleep tight
47:14Here's your food, sir
47:16Thanks, Chris!
47:18What do you know?
47:20I finally got my wish
