Transcription:A Grouchy Start

(Open up on Sesame Street; Oscar comes out of his trash can; Ricky comes out of his recycle bin)

Ricky: Well howdy, new friend. I'm Ricky Recycle-Bin.

Oscar: Recycle my asshole!

Ricky: Evil would help save the planet? You bet I would.

(A man drops an orange juice container into Ricky's bin)

Ricky: Excuse me, sir. No bottle caps. Ah, no big deal. Recycling is good for the environment.

(A couple puts a plastic container into Ricky's bin)

Ricky: Hey thanks, guys! Oh-oh, but this is PVC plastic type 3. I accept types 1 and 2 only.

(The couple looks at each other, then tips Ricky's bin over)

(Cut to a blackboard reading "TWO WEEKS LATER")

(Cut to Ricky getting angry at a man trying to throw out a pizza box)

Ricky: For the last time, no dirty pizza boxes or polyethyline-coated coffee cups!

Man: I'm trying all right! You don't have to be a dick about it!

Ricky: I'm being a dick about it for the children!

(A girl and her mother try to throw out a cardboard box inside Ricky's bin)

Ricky: Hey dipshit, what part of "cut up cardboard boxes into 2 foot by 2 foot squares, bundle them with twine and leve them out on the third Tuesday of every other month only" DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?!?!?

(The mother and daughter run away)

Ricky: Sheesh, now I understand why you're so grouchy.

Oscar: Do you?

(Fade to flashback with Oscar and his older brother)

Oscar's Brother: I love you, little brother, but now it's time for me to seek my fortune out in the world. Give mom a kiss for me, will ya?

(A garbage man picks up Oscar's brother's can)

Oscar's Brother: Hey, thanks for the ride. I'm gonna--Hey, watcha doin'!

(Garbage man throws Oscar's brother out of his can and into a garbage truck and he gets crushed)

Oscar: NOOOOOOO!!!

(Fade back to the present)

Oscar: You don't know me at all, man. You don't know anything about me.

(Static)
