Elmo's World

An opera diva joins in with the music today as Elmo has lots of fun learning all about singing with Dorothy the Goldfish and Mr Noodle.

Elmo is buried in one of his favorite fruits: bananas. Dorothy wants to know what you do with a banana. Mr. Noodle tries to make a phone call on a banana, play a banana like a trumpet, and write on paper with an ink-dipped banana. When he finally goes to take a bite, it pops up out of the peel and lands in Elmo's hands. Kids show how to peel and eat bananas. Elmo counts the number of bananas in a hat. Chairs, skateboards and bananas don't eat bananas, but monkeys do. Elmo's friend Michael made an entire meal of bananas: banana bread, fried bananas, banana pancakes, banana smoothies and banana pudding. All of Michael's friends came over for a banana feast. The Banana Channel (containing programming with a-peel) tells the story of bananas. Coming up next on The Banana Channel: "A Bunch & Other Stuff". Elmo talks to a comedian banana with his own drum riff to accent his jokes. Elmo learns that he knows enough about bananas to be a banana. Dorothy imagines Elmo as a banana in a banana tree who is shaken free and chased by a monkey through a supermarket. Attempting to answer one of the age-old mysteries, Elmo shows his film "Can a Banana Peel Itself?"

Elmo and his friends in Elmo's special world. They are learning how to draw and Elmo finds out that everybody draws in their own special style.

Elmo comes in the room with a long black wig of hair, then he puts on a girly wig , then a rainbow wig. Dorothy has a decoration of a fish wearing a wig in her fish bowl. She wants to know how people brush their hair. Elmo wears hair like Pat Playjacks, then a red heavy metal wig. Mr. Noodle's brother Mr. Noodle brushes his hair with a toothbrush, a paintbrush and a hairbrush in turn. He brushes his hair to stick straight out from his head. Kids show how they brush or comb their hair. Elmo asks a baby with a baby hairbrush but realized that babies don't have hair...yet. Elmo asks the viewer to help him count CGI brushes brushing his fur (of which Elmo is covered in) and tickling him. Elmo asks questions about what has hair and what doesn't. A Muppet tortoise appears with a black pompadour wig asking Elmo if he has ever heard of "The Tortoise and the Hair". Elmo's friend Joseph and his mom go to a barber shop for Joseph to get his first haircut. Elmo dresses up as Cousin Itt from The Addams Family. The Hair Channel shows "The Kingdom Where Everybody's Hair Looked The Same." Coming up next: "From Hair to Eternity" and "When Hairy Met Sally." Elmo talks with Rapunzel (a Green Anything Muppet) about hair. Dorothy imagines Elmo in the story of Rapunzel. Elmo, wearing the same wig as Rapunzel back in his room, lets his hair down for Prince Charming to climb, then Elmo puts the wig on Prince Charming, slides down the braids and leaves. The Prince was now trapped in the tower and asked Elmo to come back, but that's not how the story goes. Just before Rapunzel leaves Elmo's room, she accidentally trips Elmo down with her hair. Elmo finds Bert with flat hair after showering. He ruffles Bert's hair while Bert protests that he needs to "put some gunk" on his hair.

Elmo opens his door to an avalanche of flowers and plants, and is raised off the floor by a tree. Dorothy wants to know how you give water to a plant. Mr. Noodle's brother Mr. Noodle takes a drinking glass out of his pocket, fills it with water and takes a drink. He fills up the glass again and tries to let the plant drink from one of its leaves and offers it a straw before pouring the water into its pot. In response, the plant shoots a stream of water back into his face. Kids water their Geraniums and potted trees while a baby chews his finger in front of a stuffed toy flower. Elmo counts 9 squirrels in a tree before he realizes that it was one squirrel popping out 9 times to fool Elmo. Elmo asks Drawer what else grows out of the ground, such as carrots, orange trees and worms that live in the ground. Except for Slimey who lives in Oscar's trash can. Elmo shows a video about his friend Cody who grew his own plant. The Flower Plant and Tree Channel shows a cartoon with the Tree Lady about how to grow trees. A cactus tells Elmo that he's a plant even though he doesn't have leaves, and even shows Elmo how he can grow a flower on the spot. Elmo tries to water him, but the cactus tells him he doesn't need that much water. A tumbleweed rolls by to inform Elmo that lots of other plants that live in the desert. Dorothy imagines Elmo living in a big city watering his plants, and as a construction worker. Next, Elmo appears at the bottom of the ocean where there's plenty of water. Finally, Elmo appears as Tarzan in the jungle, where lots and lots of plants live. Elmo shows his expose called, Stinky the Plant.
