Picture Episode Description

Ernie consults Rubber Duckie for advice. He then brings in his bathtub, claiming that is the answer. When Bert claims that is the wrong answer, he goes on to prove that his bath tub has an engine and can drive.

2402 The question is "What do you have on the head, it grows and you can cut it".
Ernie's first answer is a cactus since it grows. He rethinks it and then concludes it has to be chives, it grows and you cut it. Bert tells him that's correct but you don't have chives on your head. Ernie then puts it on Bert's head, to prove him wrong.
2405 Ernie tries to prove to Bert that you are able to improve your sight by looking through a magnifying glass.




First Ernie says that it has to be a drum because it's round. The second item Ernie thinks it is an a umbrella. Then Ernie gets a idea and claims that the item they are looking for is a fan. Bert tells him that he is wrong again, because you can't have a fan on your head. Ernie then proceeds by putting the fan on Bert's head. While Ernie is recapping why it's the right item, Bert is having difficulties staying in one place as the fan pushes him away.
2414 The question is "what makes this sound "Muhhh"?"
Ernie brings in a piano to answer the question and he plays a note. Bert tells Ernie that it's the wrong answer because the piano did not make the correct noise. Ernie asks Bert to wait a bit, he then proceeds to put various things in the piano such as a drum, soccer ball and rope, afterwards he sits down at the piano and then plays "muhhh" on the piano. Bert can't understand what happened, and Ernie shows him that the piano can now play various kind of noises, while Bert examines the piano, and ends up getting stuck inside the piano.
2415 The question is "Which of these three balls is the biggest?".
Ernie notices that the soccer ball is missing air, so he can't tell which is biggest when that ball is missing air. So Ernie takes out his air pump and starts pumping air into the ball. Bert puts pressure on Ernie to concentrate on the answer instead. Ernie pumps more and more air into the ball, until it's the biggest of the three balls. Bert tells Ernie that he has pumped too much air in the ball and it explodes.
2416 The question is "What makes noise and cleans?".
Ernie's first answer is a radio. However, Bert tells him that a radio can't clean. Ernie then comes up with the solution: he finds a vacuum cleaner and starts using it on Bert.
2419 The question is "What flies, buzzes and can make honey?".
Ernie's first answer is a paper airplane, since it can fly. Bert tells him that's correct. However, it can't buzz so it's not the right answer. Ernie pulls out a honey jar to make sure that's what Bert meant, and a bee appears next to Ernie and he goes over to Bert to hand him the jar, he can't think with all that buzzing. As Bert gets the jar he runs away screaming with the bee after him, and as Ernie is about to warn him he suddenly realizes that the answer is a bee.
