The program begins with Mister Rogers walking down a city street greeting his neighbors. When he arrives at his house, he is told that Betty Aberlin’s Little Theater has a leak in its roof. Everyone in the neighborhood gets together and decides to stage a show to raise money to fix it. In the Neighborhood of Make Believe, Lady Elaine is sad because she can’t become a princess.
