Quotes

Kids : Thank you, firefighters!
[the segment changes to reveal Elmo wearing a fireman's helmet and standing outside of 123 Sesame Street. Next to him is a female firefighter]
Elmo : Hi, everybody! This is Elmo's friend, Susan. And guess what? She's a firefighter!
Firefighter Susan : Hi!
Elmo : Susan's going to show us what to do if there's a fire. Elmo just went into Hooper's Store, and there was a fire there.
Firefighter Susan : Yes, you were, Elmo. And what'd you do?
Elmo : Elmo had to "get low and go", like this:
[ducks and runs off. Susan smiles. Elmo comes back in, ending the segment]

Elmo : Shade? Open up, please.
[the shade opens to reveal Ms. Noodle, twirling around]
Elmo : Oh, look! It's Mr. Noodle's sister, Ms. Noodle. Hi, Ms. Noodle! Hi! Ms. Noodle? Wow, Ms. Noodle's really good at spinning. But she sure needs to work on stopping.
[sticks his head in]
Elmo : Ms. Noodle? Ms. Noodle? Are you there?
[Ms. Noodle sneaks up while Elmo isn't looking and tickles him on the head, making him giggle]
Elmo : There you are! Hi, Ms. Noodle. Boy. What do firefighters wear to keep safe when they put out fires?
[Ms. Noodle thinks for a moment, but then she leaves briefly]
Elmo : Where's she now?
[Ms. Noodle comes back in wearing a football uniform]
Elmo : Ms.-Ms. Noodle!
[giggles]
Little kid #1 : No, that's not right!
Little kid #2 : Hey, that's a football uniform! That's for football, not for fighting fires.
Elmo : Yeah, that's what football players wear, Ms. Noodle.
Little kid #2 : You can't fight a fire in that!
[Ms. Noodle stares at the camera in disappointment]
Little kid #2 : That's what football players wear to keep safe.
[Suddenly, the football deflects rapidly off Ms. Noodle's helmet]
Little kid #1 : And it really works.
[Elmo giggles]
Kids : Try again, Ms. Noodle!
Elmo : What do firefighters wear to keep safe?
[Ms. Noodle leaves, then comes back in again, but wearing a suit of armor, complete with a lance]
Kids : NO!
Little kid #2 : That's a suit of armor! You can't fight a fire in that! That's what knights wear to keep safe. What do firefighters wear?
[Ms. Noodle looks down at her armor]
Elmo : No, they don't wear armor. No.
Kids : Try again, Ms. Noodle!
Little kid #2 : You can do it.
Elmo : Try again.
[Ms. Noodle stumbles around with the lance]
Kids : Whoa!
Little kid #1 : Careful, Ms. Noodle.
[a crashing noise is heard. Ms. Noodle comes in again, but now she is wearing a firefighter's uniform, complete with a fire hose, and she is pretending to put out a fire]
Kids : YAAAAAY!
Little kid #1 : Yeah, that's right!
Little kid #2 : That's a firefighter's uniform!
Little kid #1 : Ms. Noodle is pretending to put out a fire.
[Ms. Noodle notices that no water is shooting from the hose]
Elmo : Wait, what's wrong, Ms. Noodle?
Little kid #2 : But there's no water coming out!
Little kid #1 : No water?
Elmo : Awwww.
[giggles]
Little kid #2 : Where's the water?
[Suddenly, water shoots out everywhere, and Ms. Noodle loses control of the hose. Elmo and the kids burst out laughing]
Elmo : There's the water!
[the shade closes]
