	SCENE 1	Alan and Bob note that there's "Something in the Air" today that makes them want to sing! They're joined by Miles, Gabi, Big Bird, Elmo and a chorus of sheep. Afterward, everyone goes back to their business and Elmo goes to look for Rosita, whom he's having a playdate with.
	SCENE 1 cont'd	As he walks down the block looking for Rosita, Elmo sings "Somebody Come and Play." Just then, Rosita arrives on the street (humming "Sing" to herself), but can't seem to find Elmo. Gabi and Miles inform her that she just missed him and point to the direction he went.
	SCENE 1 cont'd	Elmo goes into Big Bird's nest looking for Rosita. She passes by just as he shuts the door. When he emerges, he asks the singing sheep about Rosita's whereabouts, but they have no answer. Just as he leaves, Rosita finds out from the sheep that she just missed him again. She proceeds to sing "I'm Gonna Get to You," with back-up from the sheep.
	SCENE 1 cont'd	Believing that the other isn't coming to the playdate, the two monsters decide to give up.
