Rudy Blows His First Bubble
On Sesame Street today, everyone is having a delightful time blowing bubbles. Alan, Elmo, and Rosita join in the fun and sing a catchy song about blowing bubbles. Unexpectedly, Oscar appears and surprises them all by confessing his love for bubbles...specifically, popping them. As a family of Dingers happily participates in the bubble fun, Cookie Monster arrives, eager to blow bubbles too. He takes out his enormous bubble wand, but the wand's shape reminds him of cookies, causing him to devour it. As a result, Cookie Monster starts hiccuping bubbles.
Rudy observes the floating bubbles and wants to join in the excitement, having never blown a bubble before. He imagines he will quickly become the best bubble blower and envisions himself soaring over Sesame Street in a bubble, singing about his incredible achievement. Oscar, however, bursts Rudy's bubble, bringing him back to reality. Determined to make his own bubbles, Rudy seeks guidance from his friends. Despite their advice, Rudy struggles to blow any bubbles, growing increasingly frustrated. His friends help him calm down, and as Rudy takes calming breaths, he almost blows a bubble.
They soon realize Rudy's mistake was inhaling instead of exhaling when trying to blow a bubble. Following their advice, Rudy exhales and successfully creates his first bubble, only for Oscar to pop it immediately. Unfazed, Rudy is thrilled to have learned the skill and encourages Oscar to keep popping bubbles so he can make more. Everyone rejoins in singing the bubble-making song once more. As Abby and Rudy sign off, Slimey impresses them by blowing an enormous bubble.
