She hands her wand over to Zoe and Baby Bear and leaves! Zoe and Baby Bear decide that they can figure out how to help get Cinderella to the ball. They remember that the Fairy Godmother had said, "Meatballs" three times when she turned Cinderella into a chicken so they try saying various other words to no avail. Finally, they decide to change the way they wave the wand. They wave the wand in a different direction, but this doesnt work either. Finally, they decide that Cinderella really does need her Fairy Godmother and they help her Godmother to realize that its okay to make mistakes and that she can try again.

Then, Rosita tries to help Elmo by singing him a chicken lullaby in Spanish, but he still doesnt have his favorite chicken dream! Finally, Big Bird comes along and shows Elmo a book called, "I Dream of Chicken," which says that in order to dream about a dancing chicken, Elmo has to stare at a dancing chicken right before he goes to sleep. Soon, Bob, who is dressed as a chicken, walks by and agrees to help Elmo. Elmo stares at Bob who is dancing a chicken dance as he is trying to fall asleep.
