When Big Bird eagerly presents drawings he made of his adult friends, he's devastated to learn that Mr. Hooper has died. The adults gently explain what death means, reassuring Big Bird that they'll help care for him and David will run the store. Big Bird tearfully says goodbye to Mr. Hooper's portrait as his friends comfort him. Sponsors: J, M, 5
