MURRAY: Hi.
I'm Murray from Sesame Street.
And I'm looking for the Word on the Street.
What's the word on the street?
GIRL: Relax.
MURRAY: What does it mean to relax?
GIRL: You're going to calm down your body.
BOY: Or just sit down and take a rest from being active.
MURRAY: What are ways that you like to relax?
GIRL: Read a book.

MURRAY: Ahh.
[SLURP] Ah.
Keep listening for the word "relax," today
on Sesame Street.
BOY: Relax.
MURRAY: That's the Word on the Street.
Ahh.
LENA: Why don't you tell everyone what today's word is.
MURRAY: Right.
I am honored, Lena.
Today's word is-- oh.
Today's word is--
Oh, no.
I can't remember what today's word is.
This is bad.
This is not good at all.
Oh, man.
What is today's word? [CRIES OUT]
LENA: "Relax," Murray.
MURRAY: I can't relax, Lena.
I forgot the word.
I need to remember the word.
LENA: No, no, no.
Today's word is "relax."
MURRAY: Oh!
Right.
Relax.
The word is "relax."
I knew that.
I totally knew it.
LENA: Good.
So now we know what the word is.
Why don't you tell everyone what relax means?
MURRAY: Right.
Got it, Lena.
I will handle this.
The word relax means-- huh.
The word relax means--
Oh, no.
I can't remember.
I knew it before, but now I am totally blanking.
This is so embarrassing.
[CRYING]
LENA: "Calm down," Murray.
MURRAY: How can I calm down, Lena?
I forgot the definition of relax.
Everyone's counting on me, and I can't
remember what relax means.
LENA: No, no, no.
Relax means to calm calm
MURRAY: Oh, right.
Calm down.
Relax means to calm down.
LENA: Yes.
Relax means to calm down.
MURRAY: That's right.
Woo!
This is awesome.
We did it!
We told them about the word "relax."
We rule!
[LAUGHING]
LENA: And you know what, Maury?
MURRAY: What?
LENA: Now that we told them about relax--
MURRAY: Yeah?
LENA: --maybe we should show them how to relax.
MURRAY: Yeah.
We should totally do that.
I just wish I knew how to relax, Lena.
I just wish I knew how.
LENA: It's easy.
MURRAY: Well, what do I do?
What do I do?
LENA: Look at me, Murray.
MURRAY: Yeah.
I'm looking.
LENA: Focus.
MURRAY: I'm focusing.
LENA: We're going to calm you down.
Ready?
MURRAY: OK.
Ready to calm down, Lena.
LENA: Good.
Now, take a slow, deep breath in through your nose.
[INHILATION]
And out through your mouth.
MURRAY: [SIGH]
MURRAY AND LENA: Relax.
BOY: I can't believe this line is taking so long.
We're never going to get a turn.
Why aren't we moving?
GIRL: I know you're feeling really frustrated,
but you need to relax and calm down.
Try taking a slow, deep breath.
BOY: [INHALING] [EXHALING]
GIRL: Did that help?
BOY: Yes.
Thanks.
GIRL: Do you want to hear a joke?
It'll keep your mind off waiting.
BOY: Sure.
GIRL: Why did the chicken cross the playground?
[CLUCKING]
BOY: I don't know.
Why?
GIRL: To get to the other slide.
[LAUGHTER] Now, let's play a game.
What animal am I?
Rar!
Rar.
BOY: A bear?
GIRL: Yeah.
You got it.
BOY: Hey.
It's our turn on the ride.
Wow.
That was fast.
Once I relaxed and we played games,
it wasn't so hard to wait.
[WHOOSH]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
ERNIE: [SINGING] There are times I love just to be with Bert.
But time by myself never seems to hurt.
The peace and calm fill my heart with glee.
All alone-- my apple tree, a squirrel, [CHATTERING]
a birdie, [CHIRPING] a hornet's nest, [BUZZING] and me.
[MEOWING] [PURRING]
We all need time just to find our space--
to get away from the noisy race.
What bliss-- what heaven it can be.
All alone-- my apple tree, a squirrel, [CHATTERING]
a birdie, [CHIRPING] a hornet's nest, [BUZZING] a pussy cat,
and me.
[MEOWING]
I can skip a rope.
I can ride a bike.
But sitting here's what I really like-- resting on the grass,
so happy and free.
All alone-- my apple tree, a squirrel,
[CHATTERING] [CHIRPING] a birdie, a hornet's nest,
a pussy cat [MEOW] a cow, [COWBELL RINGING] and me.
Wait a minute.
A cow?
Cows can't climb trees.
COW: No wonder I had such difficulty climbing up here.
[CHATTERING] Would you care for an apple?
ERNIE: [LAUGHING].
[ANIMAL NOSIES]

Asking all these questions is hard work.
I need to relax.

Comfy.
