Mister Rogers arrives with a small juniper tree which he shows just before Mr. McFeely stops by with pictures of various other trees. Mister Rogers and Mr. McFeely look at the trees on Picture Picture.

In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, everyone is working together to covert the Eifel Tower into a mountain by covering it with trees. Queen Sara takes a spill as she is putting a tree into place and is taken to an emergency room by Handyman Negri and Miss Paulificate.

Back at the house, Mister Rogers talks about accidents and how sometimes people can hurt themselves and need to visit an emergency room. This leads into Mister Rogers remembering a time when he visited a hospital emergency room. He spends and extensive amount of time talking about each of the various areas in an emergency room.

Mister Rogers concludes by singing I Like to Be Told.
