00:00Five o'clock and all is well!
00:28No, it's not!
00:31Why not?
00:33You woke me up!
00:38Oh, no! Now someone's singing!
00:44I think we are in a musical!
00:46A musical? I'll never get to sleep!
00:50Oh, now the sun's out! Thanks a lot!
00:57I do not do the weather, sir!
01:00Just the time!
01:01Five o'clock and all is well!
01:04Five o'clock and all is well!
01:07Five o'clock and all is well!
01:09Once upon a time in the kingdom of Sesame, there lived a little red monster named Elmo.
01:32His not-so-nice stepmother called him Cinderella because he was so dusty from sweeping chimneys
01:39all day.
01:42Every year a ball was held at the palace and Cinderella dreamed of going there to dance
01:47with the princess, but he had one little problem.
02:07Here, stepmother.
02:11Look what just arrived.
02:14From the palace, invitations to the princess's 18th birthday holiday ball.
02:21For Elmo?
02:22No.
02:23Of course, your stepbrothers and I will be going tomorrow night, as usual.
02:28All right!
02:30But, Cinderella, you get to shine our dancing shoes, and mend our clothes, and hoof the horses,
02:42wax the carriage, make our breakfast, wash the dishes, and paint the house!
02:47But first...
02:50Dust.
02:52Dust!
02:53Oh, just a dust!
02:55Dust the rooms and dust the halls, look!
03:08Dust the ceilings and the walls!
03:11Dust the table, dust the chairs!
03:14Dust whatever's standing there!
03:17Dust the crackers and the cheese!
03:20Dust the dog and dust the fleas!
03:24Dust the books upon the shelf!
03:27When you're finished, dust yourself!
03:30Dust the mason, dust the bust!
03:33When you're finished, dust the dust!
03:36Nothing dusty is too small!
03:38Nothing dusty is too small!
03:40For tomorrow is a princess!
03:43Dust the mason!
03:46Dust the mason!
03:47Wait!
03:48There's a tragedy we got!
03:49My son, you've come to me.
03:51Yes, yes, yes!
03:52Tomorrow, this time you will be dancing with the princess at the palace.
03:56Yes!
03:57And how do we get to the palace?
04:00Practice, practice, practice!
04:03Oh, look!
04:05Oh, look! They're decorating the palace for the ball as we speak.
04:15Oh, I see the king! He's talking to someone.
04:19He's blue and furry.
04:24Cut to the chase, man!
04:26Well, sire, I thought as your furry blue prime monster,
04:30I should show you this law before we have the princess's birthday ball tomorrow.
04:35The royal heavy book here says, and I quote,
04:40the princess must choose a husband by midnight of her 18th birthday or lose the kingdom.
04:48Where does it say that? Where?
04:50Down here in the teeny tiny print, right after Offer Void Were Prohibited.
04:54Oh, I should always read the fine print.
04:59What's wrong?
05:00I'm afraid it's true, princess.
05:02But I'm not ready to get married.
05:04If you don't marry, we'll lose the land of Sesame, the castle, everything!
05:10Oh!
05:11Well, I don't want that to happen.
05:12I knew you'd understand!
05:14But, Daddy, every year I meet the same suitors at the ball.
05:17There's no one right for me.
05:20Couldn't we invite some new people this year?
05:22Well, that's reasonable, Fred.
05:24Why not everyone?
05:30Take an edict.
05:32But, this year, besides the usual suitors, we will invite every unmarried man in the kingdom to the ball.
05:39What about unmarried monsters, sire?
05:41Monsters, too.
05:43A wise choice.
05:44Go to town and proclaim,
05:46the princess's 18th birthday holiday ball will now be called the princess's 18th birthday holiday find-a-husband ball.
05:57That is a royal mouthful.
06:00Go.
06:00Oh, it's him.
06:03Oh.
06:12Hear ye, hear ye, I've something to declare.
06:16Tomorrow night's a party.
06:18Be there or be square.
06:20Unmarried men and monsters, you're invited one and all.
06:23To the princess's 18th birthday holiday find-a-husband ball.
06:27What'd he say?
06:28Mm-hmm.
06:28Ooh, that's a giant.
06:34Unmarried men and monsters, you're invited one and all.
06:37To the princess's 18th birthday holiday find-a-husband ball.
06:41Hooray!
06:42Hey, Bert, we've got to go to the ball.
06:45The princess needs us.
06:46You're right.
06:47It's our patriotic duty.
06:48Hey, if the princess picks one of us, we could be King, Bert.
06:52Copacetic!
06:53Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh.
06:58Unmarried men and monsters, we're invited one and all.
07:01To the princess's 18th birthday holiday find-a-husband ball.
07:05Hooray!
07:06Me, royal baker, me baking up storm for princess ball, cakes, pies, broom, danish, and cookies.
07:15Me making sugar cookies, chocolate chip, and million macaroons.
07:19Ten pumpkin pies, six wedding cakes with little bride and groom, so cute, and half a million cupcakes, in case you like them small.
07:26And when me finish baking, me going to eat them all.
07:30I am going to pop.
07:31At the princess's 18th birthday holiday, find a husband, Paul.
07:38They're all, they're all, he's going to eat them all.
07:42With a princess off to dance, so come and take a chance.
07:46And we can run to dance.
07:48At the princess's 18th birthday holiday, find a husband, Paul.
07:59Where's my nose?
08:00Oh.
08:01All right.
08:04All right, now that we know that everyone is invited to this ball, we need to come up with an angle, huh?
08:11Something special.
08:13Something that will ensure that she notices you.
08:16Oh, yeah.
08:17Yeah, good point.
08:18Hey!
08:19Ah!
08:19Hey!

10:49Invitations.
10:51Who could that be?
10:53Coming.
10:56Invitations to the ball.
11:01It's the baker.
11:03Me also, post-monster general.
11:05Just want to be sure everyone heard.
11:09Me got invitations to the ball.
11:11For every single man and monster.
11:15Oh.
11:16You got one?
11:17No.
11:18Well, you got one now.
11:19Oh, look, everybody.
11:22Elmo has an invitation.
11:23He can go, can't he, Mommy?
11:35Well, let's see.
11:37How can I put this?
11:39No.
11:40But, but, but, but, but, but why, stepmother?
11:45Well, because, my sweet little man, you're all raggedy and dirty.
11:51And, I mean, you can't go to the ball dressed like this, no, could you?
11:56No.
11:56Everyone's dressed up there, huh?
11:58People would laugh.
12:00They'd laugh at you.
12:04We wouldn't want that, would we?
12:06You stay put.
12:07Ball out.
12:09No.
12:09Bye-bye.
12:10End of subject.
12:10Oh.
12:10So, it's set.
12:22If the princess marries me, she gets my paperclip collection.
12:26And if she marries me, she gets rubber ducky.
12:32For her, it's a win-win situation.
12:35That's right, bird old buddy.
12:36One of us will be moving to the palace.
12:40Huh.
12:41No more sharing an apartment, I guess, huh?
12:46Oh, that's right.
12:48It's goodbye, bird old buddy.
12:50Oh, pal.
12:51Goodbye, old chum.
12:54Hey, hey, birdie.
12:55Watch the doublet.
12:56Oh, sorry, bird.
13:01Oh, gee, I feel much better.
13:07Maybe it's for the best, after all.
13:10How lovely to see you again.
13:16How lovely, how lovely to see you again.
13:18How...
13:19That'll be the horse and driver.
13:26Come on, my handsome sons.
13:28The princess awaits you.
13:31It's not fair.
13:32You should go, too.
13:34We're almost too dusty and dirty.
13:36He might smudge the princess.
13:38No, not.
13:39Shake, shake, shake.
13:40That's right.
13:40Step to the right.
13:42You better be fabulous.
13:44Jump up and...
13:45Don't wait up.
13:46I think we're locked in.
13:58It's okay.
13:59Maybe next year.
14:00Oh, wow.
14:06The castle looks so pretty.
14:09Oh, look.
14:10A shooting star.
14:14Elmo wishes he could go to the ball tonight and dance with the beautiful princess.
14:18Oh, please.
14:20Please, please, please, please, please.
14:25When music is filling the hall and lights in the palace are bright, then Elmo would love
14:34to go dancing, dancing, dancing in the palace all night.
14:42If Elmo could go to the ball and not have to stay in his room, he'd dance with a beautiful
14:52princess, princess, princess instead of a broom.
14:58They'd dance up to the moon and the sky.
15:05They would wave hi to each star going by.
15:12Bye-bye.
15:14If Elmo could go to the ball, he'd bow to the princess and win.
15:21She'd offer her hand, he would dance and dance and dance with the princess and bend.
15:30Never sweep two knees again.
15:34That's why he's wishing, wishing, wishing, wishing he could go to the ball.
15:51Oh, boy, how many locks you got on that door?
16:00Twenty-five?
16:00I couldn't even poof my way in here.
16:02One of you guys did wish upon a star, right?
16:04Oh, yeah, yeah.
16:05Elmo did.
16:05Elmo did.
16:06Okay, good.
16:07Well, um, I'm your fairy godfather.
16:10Excuse me, fairy god person.
16:12Huh?
16:13Well, look, there's been a tremendous demand for fairy god people recently.
16:17And I'm just filling in.
16:18I'm a temp.
16:19Okay?
16:19Is that okay?
16:20Oh, sure, sure, that's okay.
16:23Okay, great, great.
16:24My name's Frank.
16:25Oh, hi, hi.
16:26Somebody said wishing three times.
16:29I do believe that that is a, just check my little man, that's a 412.
16:33Okay, how can I help?
16:35Well, Elmo wanted to go to the ball, but his stepmother said he didn't have the right clothes.
16:39Yeah.
16:40Oh, boy.
16:41Oh, boy, that's a domestic issue.
16:42Not my strong point.
16:44You know, I gotta tell you, this whole idea that a big fairy god person is gonna fly into
16:49your window and just fix your life when things get sticky.
16:51I find it very shaky.
16:52I really do.
16:53You gotta take charge of a situation.
16:54Well, what should Elmo do?
16:56Make a plan.
16:57Think it out.
16:57Most important thing of all, you gotta do something.
17:00Let me tell you a story.
17:03Here we go.
17:04You should have climbed the tree.
17:22If you've got a dream, do something.
17:27Ain't enough to dream.
17:29Do something.
17:31You can make it happen.
17:32It all depends on you, cause doing is what makes a dream come true.
17:38This is a simple step kick.
17:40Do you like it?
17:40Yeah.
17:41It's good for killing time.
17:42Oh, cool.
17:43He's good.
17:43A knight in shining armor, Sir Sagamore de Bresse, dreamt one day that he would save
17:49a damsel in distress.
17:51But when a lady cried out, help, a damsel named Bernice, he was so busy dreaming she was
17:57saved by the police.
17:59And as the lovely lady walked away, he wakened from his dream to hear her say,
18:07Where are you?
18:08If you've got a dream, do something.
18:13Ain't enough to dream.
18:15Do something.
18:16I'd still be in that tower if it was up to you.
18:20Doing is what makes a dream come true.
18:23If you dream of dancing, dance.
18:27Dance.
18:27If you dream of flying, fly.
18:31Fly.
18:31If you dream of singing, sing.
18:34Sing.
18:34Ain't enough to dream.
18:36You've got to try.
18:40There was a little monster whose name I can't recall.
18:44Dreaming of a princess and dancing at a ball.
18:48Received an invitation.
18:49Did not know what to do.
18:51Until his fairy god person said,
18:54My advice to you is go!
18:57If you've got a dream, do something.
19:01Ain't enough to dream.
19:04Do something.
19:05You can make it happen.
19:07It all depends on you.
19:09Cause doing is what makes a dream come true.
19:12Sing it!
19:13If you've got a dream, do something.
19:17Ain't enough to dream.
19:18Do something.
19:20You can make it happen.
19:22It all depends on you.
19:24Cause doing is what makes a dream come true.
19:29Yeah!
19:32Right?
19:35Aw.
19:35Well, what should Elmo do?
19:38Take a shower.
19:40Fairy Godfather will figure out the rest.
19:43Boy, I've got a lot of studying to do.
19:51Whoa.
19:52Sure, Rich someone, would have been hot water.
19:55Oh, excuse me, Frank, but how is Cinderella going to get to the palace in time?
20:01I'm working on it.
20:02I'm working on it.
20:03Here we go.
20:04Here we go.
20:04Okay, this is it.
20:05An object similar in shape, but in different scale.
20:10Preferably hollowed out in the center, such as a fruit bowl, coconut, or pumpkin.
20:16Nice work.
20:17Bingo.
20:18Okay, dog bowl.
20:19Dog bowl.
20:19Is that one word, dog bowl?
20:20I don't want to look.
20:22Whoa, you're red.
20:24Nice work.
20:25Oh, do you think Elmo looks special enough to go to the pool?
20:29Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
20:31First of all, it's not what you look like or what you wear that makes you special.
20:35Really?
20:36Yeah, it's you.
20:38It's, uh, it's your laugh.
20:41Your smile.
20:43Your fuzzy little face.
20:45Stop it.
20:48But once in a while it's fun to dress up.
20:50Come on, it's a special occasion.
20:51It's a perfect fall.
20:52Oh, yeah.
20:52Let's make a statement.
20:54Okay, ready?
20:55Okay, and raising wand with right hand, swish briskly in counterclockwise direction.
21:03Okay, here we go.
21:09Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, the magic!
21:12Wow!
21:13Elmo's going to the ball and he's going to dance with the princess!
21:17Yay!
21:17But you know, it worked!
21:19Zoe, Prince, look at Elmo!
21:23Right, come here.
21:27Oh, what about Elmo's friend?
21:29Can they come, too?
21:31Oh, boy, gee, you know, uh, Cinderella, Elmo, being a temp, I have a very limited authority in that area.
21:38Gee, he's awful cute.
21:41Yeah.
21:42What's his name?
21:43Prince.
21:44Prince?
21:45Mm-hmm.
21:45Why don't you say so?
21:46I can work with that.
21:47Oh, good!
21:51Beast!
21:53Yiko, Rooney, look at me!
21:56Man.
21:58Pretty good.
22:01I'm a prince.
22:03A real prince.
22:05Oh, wow.
22:06I think this is really going to be good for me.
22:08I mean, the dog thing, that's nice, but this, this is really good.
22:11Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
22:12I mean, I mean, I mean, what are we doing here?
22:15They all need horses.
22:17Not yet, guys.
22:18First the carriage, okay?
22:19Oh, wow, look at that!
22:32Piece of cake!
22:34Okay, horses.
22:35Ready, guys?
22:36I told you.
22:37What's going to happen?
22:38Trust me.
22:39I'm a horse.
22:48I'm a horse, see?
22:52Wow.
22:53Elmo's so excited.
22:54This is a dream come true.
22:56Yes.
22:57Yes, Cinderella, no one like all dreams.
22:59This one doesn't last forever.
23:00Oh.
23:00So remember, you must leave the ball by midnight.
23:03At midnight, all this fancy stuff has to go back.
23:06Back to wherever it came from.
23:10Midnight, got it!
23:12Woo!
23:13I mean, let's go!
23:16Yay!
23:17Oh!
23:19Woo!
23:19Bye-bye!
23:21Oh!

31:42Will you marry me? Please!
31:44Please! Oh, please!
31:46My mother wants it

31:50What about you? Do you want
31:52to marry me? You're very nice,

32:04tell her!

32:28King!
32:30Oh, my lady.
32:38Oh, she'll never let Elmo out get a dance.
32:48Unless...
32:50When I am king,
32:54porridge will become the national food.
32:56And when I am king...
32:58Haven't you forgotten to ask me something?
33:00Oh, yes, yes.
33:02You will marry me, of course.
33:04No.
33:06In what sense, no?
33:08No, but thanks for the offer.
33:10Oh, yeah, well...
33:12I think you're very nice, but...
33:14I don't like porridge.
33:16This is...
33:18This is incredible!
33:20That I won't marry you?
33:22That you don't like porridge!
33:24Where is that little red monster?
33:36Oh, no!
33:38Yeah, yeah!
33:46Oh!
33:48Well, my goodness.
33:50Excuse me, gal at night.
33:54Oh!
34:06Oh, that was fun!
34:08Cinderella!
34:12My knight in shining armor...
34:14At your service, princess.
34:16I've been expecting you. Shall we dance?
34:18Yeah!
34:20I'm so glad you came back.
34:22I've been waiting to dance with you.
34:28It's a dream come true, dancing with you at the palace.
34:52Isn't he good? Good for him.
35:12What's your name, Knight?
35:16It's midnight. That's one.
35:20Oh, I've got to go soon.
35:21When?
35:23In 11 barns. Sorry.
35:27In 10 seconds, we change back.
35:30Let's go. It's a very long walk when you're a mouse.
35:35Cinderella-mo.
35:36Cinderella-mo.
35:37Cinderella-mo, we've got to go.
35:40Cinderella-mo.
35:42I think it's time to leave.
35:47Get me through.
35:48Goodbye, princess.
35:59Quick, choose a husband now or we'll lose everything.
36:03Yes, now?
36:04No.
36:05I choose a little red monster and it just ran away.
36:12Great.
36:14Huh?
36:1512.
36:16Oh, I love to count to midnight.
36:18Ah, ah, ah.
36:24Oh, no.
36:26Just in time.
36:28And my royal...
36:29Yes, sir.
36:30There you are.
36:31Find that monster and bring him back.
36:34He's our next king.
36:36Yes, you royal big guy.
36:39Royal big guy?
36:40Hey, little red furry guy!
36:44Wait!
36:49Such an empty fit for a monster.
36:54Ah, I guess she chose someone else.
36:56Yeah, she did, Bert.
36:58Aw, what do you do for a broken heart?
37:01Well, we could go to the zoo and get ice cream.
37:04That might work.
37:05You buy.
37:08What?
37:10It is gone, sire.
37:12All I got was the shoe.
37:13Well, then we must find the foot that fits this shoe.
37:17But of course, sire.
37:18The shoe must go on.
37:28No.
37:30I, the royal foot finder, proclaim the shoe does not fit.
37:35Oh, well.
37:38It looks bleak, sire.
37:39There is only one more family to try.
37:41A certain, not very nice stepmother and her two sons.
37:45If it does not fit them, it is goodbye, Charlie!
37:49But it might fit.
37:52Here goes.
37:55Don't just knock, man.
37:57Yes, sire.
38:01Royal foot finder, open up!
38:04Well, hello.
38:07We've been expecting you.
38:10You remember my, my handsome son?
38:13Smile.
38:14Hello.
38:15Nice to see you.
38:16Um, come on.
38:18Won't you please, please join us?
38:22But what's the point, man?
38:24Neither of them are red.
38:26Sire, kids today dye their hair the craziest colors.
38:30Let us try.
38:31Uh, your foot, please.
38:37Oh, I can't.
38:39Go ahead, son.
38:41That's right.
38:43Strange.
38:44It seems larger than usual today.
38:46Come on.
38:48Oh, silly.
38:50We often use a shoehorn.
38:52Just a minute.
38:53A shoehorn?
38:54Stop.
38:54No, tickle.
38:57Bam.
38:58Ah.
39:00No fit.
39:01That is official.
39:02Next.
39:04That's me.
39:08Oh.
39:08I told you to trim your claws.
39:13It's too small anyway.
39:15Ssss.
39:16Okay.
39:17Huh?
39:17Close enough?
39:18Hmm?
39:18Yeah?
39:19No fit.
39:21Last call!
39:22We need tootsies here!
39:24Is there anyone else?
39:26Are you sure there's no one else here?
39:29There must be...
39:30I guess that's it, then.
39:32We have to forfeit the kingdom!
39:35Well, it's...
39:36Well, it's only a kingdom.
39:38Wait!
39:40There's Cinderella, Mom!
39:42Yes, there is!
39:43Yeah, yeah, yeah.
39:44He's inside!
39:47Will Cinderella, please come out?
39:49He's filthy!
40:07Look at those rags!
40:09Princess, shall we try the shoe on him?
40:13No.
40:15No.
40:15Why not?
40:17I'd know him anywhere.
40:19Oh!
40:23Cinderella, Elmo?
40:24Huh?
40:25Last night, uh, I had to choose someone to marry,
40:29and you were the best dancer,
40:31and I had to choose so fast.
40:33Marry?
40:34Before kindergarten?
40:36Elmo's too young to get married!
40:39Oh, and Elmo would still love to be the princess's friend,
40:43and we could dance together and play miniature golf!
40:46And you could come live at the palace!
40:48Oh, yay!
40:50What palace?
40:51You can't marry, Cinderella,
40:53so we lose everything!
40:56But you're the king!
40:57Can't you do something?
41:00He has a point, sire. You are the king.
41:03That's right. I am the king. I can change the law.
41:09How old are you, son?
41:11Three and a half.
41:12I proclaim you four.
41:14And from now on, the princess may marry the man of her dreams whenever she is ready.
41:20Oh, yay!
41:23I will add some fine print, sire.
41:26All of you can come play at the palace.
41:28Yeah! Do that! Yeah!
41:32Mommy? Is that all right?
41:35What? My son's playing at the palace?
41:41Yes! Yes! Yes!
41:43Yeah!
41:48Prince!
41:50Didn't I dance with you at the ball?
41:54It's too bad your friend isn't still a prince.
41:57Pretty, please, Frank.
42:04Princess?
42:05Prince?
42:08Thanks, Frank.
42:09Piece of cake!
