S10 • E63 Feb 21, 1979Big Bird stands at the bus stop holding several packages and some flowers. He tells Luis that he's going to the post office, then visiting a sick friend in the hospital. As the bus stops at the sign, Big Bird remembers various other items he needs - his dirty laundry for the laundromat, a book to go back to the library and his unicycle in need of a new tire. Luis darts back and forth from the nest to get them, making the bus driver very impatient. Big Bird remembers one more thing he's forgotten - bus fare. Ernie and Bert - Ernie has a licorice whip that he offers to share with Bert. He divides the licorice in half with a pair of scissors, but then discovers that Bert's half is longer than his. He cuts off a little bit of Bert's half, and eats it. Then he discovers that his own half is longer than Bert's, and that's not fair, so he cuts a bit off of his own, and eats it. Ernie goes back and forth, shaving off more and more, until the licorice whip is gone.
