Mister Rogers arrives with two suitcases -- one containting little hats and the other containing big hats. He sings Children Can as he tries on a variety of the adult-size hats. Wearing a cap with a propeller on top, Mister Rogers answers the door when Mr. McFeely stops by with a photo album. The album has pictures of various Neighbors wearing different kinds of hats.

In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, Lady Aberlin informs Betty Okonak Templeton and King Friday that Lady Elaine's helicopter, Yo-Yo, is stuck in the air. King Friday emphasizes his command that all references to yo-yos be removed from the Neighbohrood.

Bob Dog finds a hat hanging from the helicopter and is carried away when he tries to pull it down. Sent back down from the helicopter is a request for help from Handyman Negri in the form of sheet music.

Back at the house, Mister Rogers sings It's You I Like before Maggie Stewart stops with a delivery on behalf of Mr. McFeely -- a videotape about how people make grape jelly in a factory. After watching the video, Ms. Stewart gives Mister Rogers a jar of grape jelly which they take to the kitchen and use to make a snack.

Notes

In the photo album is a picture of Joe Negri wearing a beret. When this picture is shown, Vous et Moi Ensemble plays in the background and Fred even says out loud, "Vous et moi ensemble."

Apparently Bob Dog is carried away while holding on to the hat with his teeth. As he is seen dangling from the helicopter, both arms are clearly visible at his sides.
