Mister Rogers feeds his fish before playing a matching game. Holding up two cards, viewers are to decide if the images shown are the same or different. Using a pillow and a teddy bear to show that the game can also be played with objects, Mister Rogers holds onto the objects as he sings Please Don't Think It's Funny.

Mr. McFeely stops by with a surprise set up on Mister Rogers' front porch. Inside a cage, Mr. McFeely has two piglets -- Roz and Howie -- and Mister Rogers helps feed them.

In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, Margie Nebraska talks to X the Owl and Henrietta Pussycat about King Friday's return. Miss Nebraska is in the Neighborhood to be sure everything is in order for the King's return and learns about the tents set up in the castle garden.

From the castle, Miss Nebraska looks at Someplace Else through a crystal ball. She suggests that Lady Elaine move her campsite to Someplace Else -- a better place for bird watching. Miss Nebraska calls in her balloon to help move the tents to their new location.

Back at the house, Mister Rogers and Mr. McFeely continue watching the piglets before Mister Rogers goes inside and talks about the campsite moving to Someplace Else.

Notes

When Mister Rogers shows pictures of the factory while playing the matching game, I'm a Man Who Manufactures plays in the background.
