( Sesame Street Green and Prairie Dawn Pink enters.) This is my son and my daughter. They're brother and sister. But since this part of Sesame Street is brought to you by fathers, I'd like to tell you a little bit about what fathers do. Ahem. (singing) A father can fix anything, leaky tap or broken spring. In his home a father's king.

Herry Monster Blue, Sesame Street Green and Prairie Dawn Pink : And that 's what fathers do!

Herry Monster Blue: You betcha.

Prairie Dawn Pink: Good job, pop.
