Sesame Street

Elmo and Zoe Search for Rocco (#4043)

Zoe is having a great time playing with her pet rock, Rocco. Zoe is pretending that Rocco and Elmo are circus performers. When they get sidetracked, they return to find that Rocco is missing! They decide to become Circus Detectives and investigate the situation in order to find the missing rock. They begin to look for clues that may lead them to Rocco and they ask questions as they search. They ask a chicken but cannot understand her response. They ask an elephant who is not very helpful and finally they have to remember exactly what Rocco looks like because they find similar looking objects along the way. Eventually they ask Big Bird, and when he hears that they asked a chicken he volunteers to translate. As it turns out, the chicken was sitting on Rocco all along! The mystery is solved.
