Mister Rogers arrives with three screwdrivers of different size and three corresponding screws. Before he can take a closer look at them, Mister Rogers is visited by Sam Senkow who teaches him how to play story tag. Mr. Senkow also shares a collection of items he has found while working with children in nature.
In the kitchen, Mister Rogers takes a closer look at the screwdrivers and screws he brought with him. He recalls a time he took his father's tools to play with and talks about how part of growing is understanding that some things belong to you and some things do not.
In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, Mr. Allmine returns Daniel's clock to its rightful location. Daniel recognizes that the clock is not "ticking and tocking" properly and uses a screwdriver to make a quick repair. Mr. Allmine recognizes that he can enjoy things without taking them.
Back at the house, Audrey Roth returns to hang the newly cleaned curtains and shares a Funny Fast Film of the Audrey Cleans Everything crew cleaning a stadium.
Mr. McFeely delivers a mobile ordered by Mister Rogers. As he looks at the mobile, Mister Rogers sings Peace and Quiet.
Notes
Mister Rogers takes out a wooden sculpture given to him previously by Sam Senkow. He uses this and a screwdriver to represent the castle and Trolley as he begins and ends Make-Believe.
