00:06Oh, hi! Welcome to Sesame Street!
00:08Oh, Elmo was just about to help Chris
00:10clean some dirty dishes here at Hooper's Stool.

00:15Yeah, this is gonna take all day.

00:24Now there are zero dirty dishes left.
00:27Ha-ha!
00:28Hey, you made all the dishes disappear!
00:31That's right.
00:33They're all cleaned up and put away because I'm...
00:36The Amazing Zero!
00:38You're the Amazing Zero!
00:39You are my favorite superhero number!
00:41Always great to meet a fan.
00:43I think I might have an autograph here somewhere.
00:46Oh, sorry, zero left.
00:49Happens a lot.
00:50I am zero after all.
00:52You're zero after all.
00:55What's zero?
00:57Zero is a number that means there's none of something.
01:00I, the Amazing Zero,
01:02help people by taking all of a thing away
01:05until none of it is left.
01:08Zero, all gone.
01:10Like making all the dirty dishes disappear?
01:12Mm-hmm, exactly.
01:13We had a lot of dirty dishes,
01:15and the Amazing Zero helped us
01:16by leaving us zero dirty dishes to clean.
01:19Oh, do the trumpet! Do the trumpet!
01:21Bum-ba-da-da!
01:23Wow, that was cool!
01:25Zero sounds like a really important number.
01:28I am, and it's a lot of work.
01:30There are lots of people to help
01:32and things to take away.
01:34That's why I've come here to Sesame Street
01:37to find someone to help me.
01:40Oh, like a sidekick?
01:42Yes, another zero hero.
01:45Know anyone that could help?
01:47Well, I have to watch the store, so...
01:49Elmo can do it! Elmo can do it!
01:51Okay, well, can you count to zero?
01:54Yes, yes, yes.
01:57Uh, no, sorry, Elmo can't count to zero.
02:00That's okay. Here, I'll show you.
02:04See? Here are four cups.
02:07Let's see here.
02:09One, two, three, four.
02:13Four cups all together.
02:15Now, watch this.
02:17The Amazing Zero!
02:21Wow!
02:23Ah, now there are zero.
02:26Wow!
02:28Okay, Elmo understands.
02:31There are no cups left. None.
02:33Right.
02:35Now, if you're going to help me,
02:37you're going to need a superhero costume.
02:40Oh, okay. Be right back.
02:44Like this. Ta-da!
02:47Look at that. A cape and everything.
02:50Now, you just need a zero superhero name.
02:54Oh, right.
02:56Oh, how about this? Super Zermo!
02:59Yeah! Elmo likes that.
03:02Oh, Elmo means Super Zermo likes that.
03:06Come on, Super Zermo.
03:08We have people to help.
03:10You can do the trumpet.
03:12Really?
03:16Away we go!
03:18Hi, Chris. Away we go!
03:25Hi, Grover.
03:27Can the Amazing Zero and Super Zermo
03:30help you by leaving zero of something?
03:33Um, yeah.
03:35Yes, I, your cute and literary monster,
03:38could use some help returning all my library books
03:41after some light reading.
03:44Ah, here's your chance, Super Zermo.
03:47Help this furry blue citizen
03:49by leaving him with zero library books.
03:53Okay. Super Zermo will save the day.
03:56Oh, my hero.
03:59These are heavy.
04:01You're towing me.
04:03Super Zermo, return Grover's books to the library.
04:06Time to sound the trumpet.
04:09Right. Let's check.
04:12Are there zero books left?
04:14Remember, zero means...
04:20Yum.
04:22I still have a few books here, Super Zermo.
04:25Let me help the Amazing...
04:29Zero!
04:32All of the books are gone.
04:35That's right.
04:37There are zero library books left.
04:40They've all been returned.
04:42Oh, and here's your library card.
04:45Oh, thank you. You are my number hero.
04:49Sound the trumpet, Super Zermo.
04:52Right.
04:54Zero saves the day again.
04:57Yeah, but not Super Zermo.
05:00Elmo took a lot of books, but Grover still had a lot left.
05:03Oh, you just need more practice.
05:06Remember, zero means none.
05:09Oh, my goodness.
05:11Oh, and it sounds like someone else needs our help.
05:14Quick, trumpet.
05:16Okay.
05:20Would you just look at all this laundry.
05:23Have you ever seen so much washing to do in all your life?
05:27I'm going to be here all day.
05:30Super Zermo to the rescue.
05:33Grandma Mel, Super Zermo can help you.
05:36Really?
05:38Super Zermo will use his super powers
05:41to leave zero baskets of laundry.
05:45Watch this. Pardon Elmo.
05:47Of course.
05:49Okay. Just a second here.
05:51Another heavy thing.
05:53But don't worry. Super Zermo will...
05:59Whoops.
06:01Time for the trumpet. Time for the trumpet.
06:04Wait!
06:06Remember, zero means none.
06:08No baskets of laundry.
06:10Are there zero laundry baskets?
06:13Well, I believe you missed a couple.
06:16Super Zermo, remember,
06:19zero means none.
06:21Right.
06:23No laundry baskets.
06:25I'll clean this up.
06:27The amazing zero!
06:32Zero did it again.
06:36The laundry is gone.
06:39That's right.
06:41There are zero baskets of laundry.
06:44It's all cleaned up.
06:46Trumpet, please, Super Zermo.
06:48Oh, thank you, my zero hero.
06:52Another victory for zero.
06:55Help! Help!
06:57And it sounds like someone is in need of our help.
07:00Trumpet!
07:02We're on our way.
07:07Please, no bouncing near my block tower.
07:11You're going to knock it over.
07:13Come, Super Zermo.
07:15All right.
07:17Here's your chance.
07:19Leave zero balls near that block tower.
07:22Super Zermo doesn't know.
07:24He hasn't made zero of anything yet.
07:27Maybe the amazing zero should just find a new zero hero.
07:31Elmo's going to give up. See you later.
07:33You can't give up.
07:35There's zero.
07:37No one, nobody I want helping me other than you, Super Zermo.
07:42Really?
07:44Really.
07:46Well, okay, amazing zero.
07:49Super Zermo won't give up.
07:51You can do it.
07:53Look, your friend needs you.
07:55Just remember, zero means...
07:57None.
07:59That's right. Now go.
08:01Okay.
08:03We're going to rescue.
08:05Thanks, Elmo. I mean, Super Zermo.
08:08Yes.
08:10Hey, beach ball. Playground's that way.
08:12Playground.
08:19All right, Super Zermo.
08:21How many balls are left?
08:23Super Zermo thinks there are zero.
08:27No balls left.
08:29Boingy, boingy, boingy, boingy, boingy.
08:32Oh, no.
08:53Zero. Zero balls.
08:56There. Now there are zero.
08:59No balls left.
09:02You saved my block tower.
09:04You did it.
09:06Let's hear it for Super Zermo.
09:12Thank you, everybody.
09:13Amazing zero.
09:14Does this mean that Elmo gets to do the trumpet now?
09:17But of course.
09:18Okay, everybody.
09:23Great job helping people get to zero, Super Zermo.
09:27Sesame Street is in good hands with a hero like you.
09:31Don't mention it.
09:33It was nothing.
09:37I wonder what we have left to try.
09:41Oh, the wheels on Elmo's trike go round and round.
09:45Elmo hopes you're having fun on Sesame Street.
09:48Elmo sure is.
09:50Oh, it's time for the letter of the day.
09:53Gotta roll.
09:56So buck up, buck down.
09:58Come dance with Elmo.
10:00We're moving our bodies to the ABCs.
10:02Dance nearby.
10:06Dance far away.
10:07Now clap your hands to the letter of the day.
10:10Clap, clap.
10:11What's the letter?
10:12Clap, clap.
10:13What's the letter?
10:14Clap, clap, clap, clap.

10:20The letter of the day is C.
10:24Clap, clap.
10:25It's the letter of the day.
10:26Clap, clap.
10:27It's the letter of the day.
10:29Clap, clap.
10:30It's the letter.
10:31It's the letter.
10:32It's the letter of the day.
10:34It's the letter of the day.
10:36Clap, clap.
10:37It's the letter of the day.
10:38Clap, clap.
10:39A.
10:40A.
10:43C.
10:44C is for counting.
10:47When I'm counting with you, I'm happier than ever.
11:00Numbers sound so much better.
11:06Here is what we'll do.
11:12Come on, let's count to two.
11:17One, two of birds sitting.
11:22One, two heads all together.
11:28Come on, let's count to two.
11:37Oh, wonderful.
11:39One, two tip-tops of your shoe.
11:43One, two apples.
11:46This one's for you.
11:49When I'm counting with you, I'm happier than ever.
11:59Numbers sound so much better.
12:06Now let's count with you.
12:10One, two.
12:17The number two.
12:26Oh, hi Elmo.
12:28Hi Big Bird.
12:30What's that sound?
12:31I don't know, but let's find out.
12:35Me like food.
12:37Me like food.
12:39Best to order if you're lucky.
12:42It makes more than a foodie drunk.
12:44Yeah.
12:47Oh, me got this, me got this.
12:48I got this, I got this.
12:50Hello, Cookie Monster and Gonger.
12:52I'm Nemo, and me and my two friends are having lunch.
12:56We need enough for one, two, three people.
12:59We want something that is green, our favorite color.
13:04Can you help me please?
13:05Of course we can help you, because we are Monster Foodies.
13:12Me wonder what is something green that is food.
13:17Oh, I got it.
13:18What?
13:19Pesto pasta.
13:20What we need to make pesto pasta?
13:22For pesto pasta, we need whole wheat pasta, pine nuts, basil, parmesan cheese, garlic, and olive oil for the pesto.
13:32Well, we go right over here.
13:34Look at this.
13:36We got the pasta, pine nut, basil, parmesan cheese, garlic, and olive oil.
13:44Hang on, Cookie.
13:46Yeah.
13:47How many pine nuts do we have?
13:48Let me count.
13:49One, one.
13:52Cookie, we need more than one pine nut for the pesto pasta.
13:56No, what we going to do?
13:58It not like we can just go to a pine tree forest and get a pine nut.
14:03Actually, we can.
14:05Really?
14:06Yeah, come on.
14:07Let's go.
14:14To the pine tree forest.
14:17Pine tree forest, pine tree forest, going to the pine tree forest.
14:23Boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
14:25Here we are at the pine tree forest.
14:28Hello, Farmer Purnima.
14:30We need pine nuts to make pesto pasta.
14:33Can you help us, please?
14:34Hello, Cookie Monster and Gonger.
14:36Welcome to the pine tree forest.
14:38Sure, I can help you.
14:40Pine nuts are found in the pine cones of pine trees.
14:43When the pine cones are ready, they fall down from the tree.
14:47We collect them.
14:49After the cones have dried in the sun, we take out the nuts and remove the shells.
14:54Then they're ready to be eaten.
14:57You can eat them straight as a snack, put them in salads, vegetable dishes, or baked into cookies.
15:04There are so many ways to use pine nuts.
15:07Here are some pine nuts to make pesto pasta, Cookie Monster and Gonger.
15:12Thank you, Farmer Purnima.
15:14Pine nuts, pine nuts, we're going home with pine nuts.
15:18Yeah, okay, Chef Gonger.
15:20We got the pine nuts here.
15:23Now, me wonder how we make pesto pasta.
15:26Ah, well, dig this.
15:27Look, what if we check the recipe?
15:29Okay, let's see.
15:30Put three cups of whole wheat pasta into boiling water.
15:34Putting the pasta into the water.
15:36Now make the pesto.
15:38First, we toast the third cup of pine nuts in the skillet.
15:41Here we go.
15:42Little stirry, stirry.
15:44Toasty, toasty, toasty.
15:47Then add pine nuts to two cups of basil.
15:50Okay, adding pine nuts to the basil.
15:52Now add a quarter cup of Parmesan cheese.
15:55Adding the Parmesan cheese.
15:57Also add two cloves of garlic.
15:59Then add half a cup of olive oil.
16:03Okay, adding olive oil.
16:05And mix it in the food processor.
16:07Oh, boy, this me favorite part.
16:11Yeah.
16:13Hey, pasta done.
16:15Now, put the pasta into the bowl.
16:17Righty-o.
16:19And finally, add the pesto to the pasta.
16:22Yes.
16:23Oh, look, it green.
16:24Now put them into three bowls.
16:28Sprinkle a little more cheese on top.
16:30Yeah.
16:31One, two, three.
16:33Three bowls for three friends.
16:36Oh.
16:39It's ready.
16:41Order up.
16:44Bye-bye, food.
16:45Peace out, pasta.
16:47Oh, Cookie Monster.
16:50I got this nice for you.
16:53Oh, that for me?
16:55Oh, boy.
17:01Thank you so much, Cookie Monster and Gonger,
17:03for this delicious green pesto pasta.
17:08It's healthy and delicious.
17:11You're welcome, Neema.
17:15Yeah.
17:16Yay.
17:17Happy, happy monsters to the rescue.
17:19We make yummy food just for you.
17:27Do you know what time it is?
17:29It's time for the number of the day.
17:31Hop like an astronaut.
17:33Hop, hop, hop like an astronaut.
17:36Hop, hop, slide like a shooting star.
17:42Yeah.
17:43And hop, slide, hop, slide.
17:47Hoppy, hoppy, slide, slide, slide, slide, slide.
17:50It's time for the number of the day.
17:55Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.
17:57Count the martians with us.
17:59Ready?
18:00Zero.
18:05The number zero.
18:08It's a cloudy day.
18:10It might rain, they say.
18:12The sun's out now.
18:14Let's run and play.
18:17Zero, zero clouds.
18:21The birds on the bench flew up to the tree.
18:25Now there's space for you and me.
18:29Zero, zero birds.
18:37It's been so much fun here with our friends.
18:41But one more thing before it ends.
18:47Let's have a snack, a yummy treat.
18:51It's so nice to be together while we eat.
18:56Zero, zero snacks.
19:02The number zero.
19:08So much nature right outside your door.
19:12Nature explorers love to explore.
19:17Come with us on a nature adventure.
19:19We're the Nature Explorers.
19:26Wow.
19:28Oh, hey.
19:29Elmo and Tango are taking a nature walk with our friend Gabrielle and her grandma Nan.
19:36Hey there.
19:44What did you find, Tango?
19:46Oh, spidersweb.
19:48Does that mean there's a spider here?
19:50Oh, Elmo hopes so.
19:52Elmo loves spiders.
19:54I don't see any spiders here.
19:56Elmo wonders if we can find a spider here in the park.
20:00Great question, Elmo.
20:02This is a job for nature explorers.
20:06You could be a nature explorer, too.
20:08Come on, observe and look happy with us.
20:10Binoculars.
20:12Magnifying glass.
20:14Notebook.
20:16Nature explorers ready to explore.
20:29What is it now, Tango?
20:33Oh, look what Tango found.
20:38Remember, Tango, don't get too close.
20:40You need to be kind to nature.
20:42So observe, don't disturb.
20:44Oh, Elmo hopes this is a spider.
20:47Me, too.
20:48Spiders are super cool.
20:50Some people think they're insects, but they're not.
20:53They're not?
20:54No.
20:55Insects have six legs and spiders have eight legs.
20:58And that's one way to tell they're not insects.
21:00They're arachnids.
21:02See you shortly.
21:04So if we want to know if this is an insect or a spider,
21:08then we should...
21:10Count the legs.
21:12Count with us.
21:14One, two, three, four, five, six.
21:19That's six legs all together.
21:22So this is an insect.
21:24Very nice.
21:26And this particular insect is called a stink bug.
21:31A stink bug.
21:35I have to draw this in my notebook.
21:39Stinky.
21:40Now let's go and count more legs.
21:42And maybe find a spider.
21:44Did Elmo mention that Elmo loves spiders?
21:49Not there.
21:57Look, Tango found something else.
21:59Come on.
22:03Let's count the legs to see if it could be a spider.
22:06Count with us.
22:07One, two, three, four, five, six.
22:12Six legs all together.
22:14So that means this is an insect.
22:17From the sounds of it, I'd say it's a cricket.
22:19Sorry, Elmo.
22:21That's okay, Gabrielle.
22:22We can keep looking.
22:24We looked and looked and found two creatures that each have six legs.
22:29So they are both insects and not arachnids.
22:33Sorry, Elmo.
22:35I know you really wanted to see a spider.
22:41What is it, Tango?
22:43Another spider's web.
22:45Wait. Maybe Elmo's going to see you.
22:49Look.
22:50Is that a spider, Gabrielle?
22:52It could be.
22:53But we better check by counting the legs.
22:55One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
23:01Eight legs all together.
23:04Grandma Nell.
23:06Hi, kids.
23:07Grandma Nell, look.
23:09We found a creature with eight legs.
23:11Is it a spider?
23:13It does have eight legs.
23:15Yes, this arachnid is a spider.
23:20We answered Elmo's question
23:22and found a spider in the park.
23:44Good job, nature explorers.
23:46And great nature exploring.
23:50Bye, explorers.
23:55We hope you had fun finding out about numbers with us today.
23:58The great Zermo and I helped people by making zero things.
24:02And zero means none.
24:04Looks like someone else needs our help.
24:06My blue furry friend, can we help you make those two cookies into zero cookies?
24:10It's okay. Me got this.
24:12Me know how to make zero cookies.
24:19Wow, he's a natural zero hero.
24:22See you next time on Sesame Street.
