WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: I AM WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY!

ROSITA AND ELMO: OOH!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: RELYING ONLY ON MY INSTINCTS, I'’’LL SEE IF I HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE IT OUT HERE IN THE MIDDLE OF NATURE COMPLETELY ALONE.

ALAN: WELL, YOU'’’RE NOT COMPLETELY ALONE.

I MEAN, WE'’’RE ALL HERE, TOO.

ELMO: YEAH.

YEAH.

LEELA: YEAH.

ALSO, THIS ISN'’’T EXACTLY THE MIDDLE OF NATURE.

THIS IS THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: I KNOW NATURE WHEN I SEE IT.

AFTER ALL, I AM WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY.

THERE'’’S NATURE ALL AROUND US.

ELMO: REALLY?

ROSITA: ¿SÍÍ, VERDAD?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SÍÍ!

SO I MUST FIND FOOD, WATER, AND SHELTER FAST IF I'’’M GOING TO HAVE ANY CHANCE OF MAKING IT OUT HERE ALL ALONE!

ALAN: EXCEPT FOR US.

ELMO: WOW!

THIS IS SO EXCITING!

ROSITA: CAN WE HELP YOU, PLEASE?

ELMO: YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY MUST SURVIVE ON HIS OWN, BUT YOU CAN WATCH AND LEARN.

ROSITA: GRACIAS!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SÍÍ!

DAY ONE, HUNGER IS SETTING IN FAST.

I MUST FIND SOMETHING TO EAT.

THERE'’’S FOOD OUT HERE IN THE WILD IF YOU KNOW WHERE TO LOOK FOR IT.

ELMO: WHOA!

[WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY SNIFFING] WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AHA!

I'’’VE PICKED UP THE SCENT.

IF I'’’M GONNA CATCH SOME FOOD, I'’’M GONNA HAVE TO RELY ON MY QUICK REFLEXES.

YES!

HA HA HA!

FOOD AT LAST!

LEELA: I WAS GROWING THAT TOMATO!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: YOU SAY, "TO-MAH-TO," AND I SAY...

WHEN YOU'’’RE OUT IN NATURE, YOU HAVE TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO SURVIVE.

LEELA: YEAH, BUT YOU'’’RE NOT OUT IN NATURE.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: WELL, THEN WHAT IS THIS TOMATO PLANT IF NOT A PART OF NATURE?

LEELA: WELL, I GUESS IT IS, BUT-- ELMO: HEY.

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.

PLANTS ARE PART OF NATURE.

ROSITA: THAT'’’S RIGHT.

THERE IS NATURE HERE.

ELMO: YEAH!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AH!

THIS FOOD HAS GIVEN ME THE NOURISHMENT MY BODY CRAVED.

NOW I FEEL LIKE I CAN GO ON, BUT FOR HOW MUCH LONGER?

LEELA: IF YOU WANTED A TOMATO, YOU JUST HAD TO ASK.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: WELL, WHEN YOU'’’RE OUT IN THE WILD, YOU MUST ACT FAST, FOR WHO KNOWS WHERE OR WHEN I MIGHT FIND FOOD AGAIN.

ALAN: ACTUALLY, UM, I HAVE A LOT OF FOOD RIGHT OVER THERE AT MY STORE.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AND WHERE DID THOSE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES COME FROM?

ELMO: WH--WHERE?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: NATURE!

FROM NATURE, FROM A PLANT JUST LIKE THIS.

ALL OF OUR FOOD COMES FROM NATURE.

ELMO: OH, WOW!

REALLY?

ROSITA: SÍÍ, VERDAD?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SÍÍ!

YOU SEE, NATURE PROVIDES.

NATURE GIVES US WHAT WE NEED.

ELMO AND ROSITA: WOW!

LEELA: WELL, WHAT I NEED TO DO RIGHT NOW IS TO TAKE THE REST OF MY TOMATOES HOME.

ALAN: ALL RIGHT.

OH!

UH, SEE YOU LATER, LEELA.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: WELL, I'’’D MANAGED TO FIND FOOD, BUT I WON'’’T MAKE IT OUT HERE WITHOUT WATER.

SOON, THIRST WILL SET IN, AND I'’’VE BEEN WITHOUT WATER OUT IN THE WILDS OF NATURE FOR WHO KNOWS HOW LONG.

ALAN: ACTUALLY, IT'’’S ONLY BEEN A FEW MINUTES.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: NEVERTHELESS, I MUST FIND SOME, FOR WATER IS KEY TO SURVIVAL.

ELMO: BUT WHERE CAN WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY FIND WATER?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: I'’’LL RELY ON NATURE ONCE AGAIN.

ROSITA: UH, WHAT DO YOU MEAN EXACTLY?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: NATURE GIVES US WATER.

IT SIMPLY FALLS FROM THE SKY IN THE FORM OF RAIN.

ALL I HAVE TO DO IS DRINK IT IN.

ALAN: I--IT'’’S NOT RAINING.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: NO.

THAT'’’S A BIT OF A PROBLEM.

ROSITA: IT'’’S TOO BAD YOU WERE NOT HERE WHEN IT RAINED THIS MORNING.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: IT RAINED HERE THIS MORNING?

ELMO: YEAH, YEAH!

ROSITA: SÍÍ, SÍÍ!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: THEN THAT MEANS--AHA!

YES!

THERE ARE STILL DROPS OF WATER ON THESE LEAVES.

ELMO: OH, BUT THAT'’’S NOT ENOUGH TO DRINK.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: IT IS IF I PUT ALL THE DROPS TOGETHER.

I'’’LL JUST COLLECT ALL THE DROPS IN MY CANTEEN.

HERE COMES THE WATER DROP BY PRECIOUS DROP.

ELMO: COOL!

ROSITA: QUE BIEN!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SLOW-GOING WORK.

ALAN: YOU KNOW, IF YOU GET THIRSTY, I HAVE SOME WATER RIGHT HERE.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: OK. WHERE DO YOU THINK THAT WATER CAME FROM?

ELMO: OH.

FROM THE FAUCET?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AH, BEFORE THAT.

IT CAME FROM RAIN.

ELMO: IT DID?

ROSITA: SÍÍ, VERDAD?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SÍÍ!

WE GET OUR WATER FROM RAIN.

ONCE AGAIN, NATURE PROVIDES!

ELMO: WOW!

ROSITA: NATURE IS SO AMAZING.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: IT SURE IS, YEAH.

I ONLY WISH IT HAS PROVIDED A LITTLE BIT MORE WATER FOR ME RIGHT HERE, BUT, UH, I CAN DO THIS LATER.

RIGHT NOW, I HAVE TO PREPARE FOR NIGHTFALL.

ELMO: NIGHT?

B-BUT IT'’’S STILL--IT'’’S STILL AFTERNOON.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: RIGHT, RIGHT.

BUT, UH, NIGHT COMES QUICKLY THIS TIME OF YEAR, AND IT CAN GET VERY COLD OUT HERE IN THE WILDS OF NATURE, UP TO 200 DEGREES BELOW ZERO.

ALAN: I DON'’’T THINK THAT'’’S RIGHT.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: I MUST LOOK FOR WAYS TO KEEP WARM.

AN EXPERIENCED SURVIVOR GUY LIKE MYSELF KNOWS THAT NATURE WILL GIVE ME EVERYTHING I NEED.

AHA!

AN INCREDIBLE FIND... AND ANOTHER ONE!

YES!

THESE ARE PERFECT TO KEEP ME WARM.

ELMO: OOH.

FEATHERS?

ROSITA: UH, EXCUSE ME.

HOW CAN THOSE LITTLE FEATHERS KEEP YOU WARM, HUH?

ELMO: YEAH.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: FEATHERS ARE NATURE'’’S PERFECT WARMERS.

THEY KEEP BIRDS WARM, SO THEY KEEP ME WARM, TOO.

I JUST STICK THEM INSIDE MY SHIRT AND--HA HA HA!

ACTUALLY, FEATHERS, THEY'’’RE TICKLY.

THEY'’’RE NATURE'’’S PERFECT TICKLER.

ALAN: LISTEN.

IF YOU GET COLD, I'’’LL LET YOU BORROW A COAT, OR--OR YOU CAN EVEN, UH-- I'’’LL EVEN LEND YOU THIS VEST.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AND WHAT DO YOU THINK IS INSIDE THIS VEST MAKING IT WARM?

ALAN: OH, I--FEATHERS.

TH--THIS VEST IS STUFFED WITH FEATHERS.

ELMO: NO WAY!

ROSITA: SÍÍ, VERDAD?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SÍÍ!

YOU SEE, NATURE PROVIDES, BUT I--I'’’M GONNA NEED A LOT MORE FEATHERS TO KEEP ME WARM OUT THERE IN THE WILD AT NIGHT.

ALAN: I'’’M NOT SURE NATURE'’’S GONNA PROVIDE YOU WITH THAT MANY FEATHERS.

DUCK: [QUACK QUACK QUACK] WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AAH!

GET IN MY SHIRT, PLEASE.

YOU GOT TO KEEP ME WARM.

GET-- HA HA HA!

YOU'’’RE TOO TICKLY!

IT'’’S TOO TICKLY!

OH, MY GOODNESS!

IT'’’S TOO TICKLY.

DUCK: [QUACKING] ROSITA: WOW!

OH, WOW!

I--I DON'’’T THINK THAT KIND OF NATURE WANTED TO KEEP YOU WARM.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SOMETIMES, NATURE DOESN'’’T COOPERATE, BUT LOOK!

ELMO: WHAT?

ROSITA: WHAT?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: THE SUN IS GETTING LOWER IN THE SKY.

NIGHT WILL FALL SOON.

I MUST START TO BUILD MYSELF A SHELTER!

ELMO: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.

WHAT'’’S A SHELTER?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: A PLACE WHERE I CAN SLEEP, WHERE I CAN STAY WARM AND DRY AND PROTECTED FROM THE ELEMENTS.

I MUST ACT QUICKLY!

[MUSIC PLAYS] QUICKER THAN THAT.

[MUSIC PLAYS QUICKLY] THAT'’’S PRETTY GOOD.

AHA!

AHA!

HA HA!

ROSITA: WHY IS HE AHA-ING?

ELMO: MM-MM-MM.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEED TO BUILD MY SHELTER.

ELMO: WHAT, A COUPLE OF BRANCHES?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: YES!

NOW ALL I NEED IS THE RIGHT SPOT!

HERE.

HOLD THESE.

ALAN: OK. WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!

ELMO: WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THESE, MR. WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY?

HELLO?

ROSITA: WELL, WHERE DID HE GO?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AHA-HA-HA-HA!

ALAN: COME ON!

ELMO: OK. ELMO WILL HELP.

ROSITA: I'’’M COMING.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: HAVE A LOOK AT THIS.

IT'’’S THE BIGGEST NEST I'’’VE EVER SEEN, AND IT SEEMS TO BE ABANDONED.

THERE'’’S NO BIRDS THAT ARE LIVING IN IT RIGHT NOW.

ALAN: ACTUALLY, THAT-- WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: THIS IS PERFECT FOR MY SHELTER.

IT'’’S HIGH OFF THE GROUND, SO I'’’LL KEEP DRY IN CASE THE FLOOD WATERS RISE.

ELMO: FLOOD WATERS?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: I'’’LL TAKE THOSE.

THOSE BRANCHES WILL MAKE THE PERFECT COVERING.

ELMO: WHAT--WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WHAT ARE...OH!

ROSITA: LOOK AT HIM.

ELMO: WOW!

THAT LOOKS COOL.

ALAN: LISTEN.

THIS CANNOT BE YOUR SHELTER.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SURE IT CAN.

TREES AND BRANCHES MAKE A GREAT SHELTER AND NOT JUST FOR PEOPLE.

LOTS OF ANIMALS AND INSECTS USE TREES FOR THEIR SHELTER.

ELMO: THAT'’’S TRUE, ALAN.

ROSITA: MM-HMM!

MM-HMM!

ALAN: I MEAN, YOU CAN'’’T STAY HERE TONIGHT.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: OH.

I KNOW WHAT YOU'’’RE GOING TO SAY.

WHY DON'’’T I JUST STAY AT YOUR HOUSE TONIGHT?

WELL... ALAN: YEAH.

I WASN'’’T GONNA SAY THAT.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: THAT'’’S VERY NICE, BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK SOME OF THE HOUSES ARE MADE OF, HMM?

ROSITA: OH.

ME!

ME, ME!

WOOD!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: SÍÍ!

ROSITA: WHOO-HOO!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: AND WHERE DOES WOOD COME FROM?

ROSITA: FROM TREES!

ELMO: TREES, TREES, TREES!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: EXACTLY!

NOW, YOU SEE, NATURE PROVIDES.

ELMO: WOW!

ELMO NEVER KNEW NATURE GAVE US SO MUCH.

ROSITA: YEAH.

NATURE IS EVERYWHERE... ELMO: YEAH!

ROSITA: EVEN HERE IN THE CITY.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: WELL, MY SHELTER'’’S NOT COMPLETE, SO I WILL CLIMB IN AND GET READY FOR THE LONG NIGHT AHEAD.

ALAN: NO, NO, NO, NO.

SEE, THIS CAN'’’T BE YOUR SHELTER BECAUSE SOMEBODY ALREADY LIVES IN THIS NEST.

BIG BIRD: ♪ LA LA LA ♪ OH!

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: LOOK AT IT!

IT'’’S MAGNIFICENT, ONE OF NATURE'’’S GREATEST MASTERPIECES.

ELMO: HA HA HA!

BIG BIRD'’’S NOT A PART OF NATURE.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: OF COURSE HE IS.

BIG BIRD: I AM?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: WE ALL ARE.

ROSITA: UH, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: WE'’’RE ALL A PART OF NATURE.

WE EAT AND BREATHE AND DRINK AND LIVE BECAUSE OF NATURE.

ALAN: SO I GUESS YOU COULD SAY THAT IN A WAY WE'’’RE ALL WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUYS.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: NO.

THAT'’’S MY THING.

ALAN: SORRY.

WILD NATURE SURVIVOR GUY: BUT, YOU SEE, THAT'’’S WHY WE MUST TAKE CARE OF NATURE BECAUSE IT'’’S SO IMPORTANT TO OUR SURVIVAL.

WE NEED NATURE FOR OUR FOOD, OUR WATER, OUR EVERYTHING.
