KERMIT: Hello.
This is Kermit the Frog, and I am here
today to offer to you the first in a series of lectures
about the different ways that people can feel.
Now today I am going to talk to you about being happy.
And right over here, this is a picture of a happy face.
Now you can tell that because the face is smiling,
and you know that someone who looks this way
feels very, very good.
You feel happy when nice things happen to you.
And as a matter of fact, I'm very happy right now
because I am here talking to you and that
is a very nice thing to do.
Now let's talk about some of the things that
might make you feel happy.
COOKIE MONSTER: Nom!
KERMIT: That is not the kind of thing
that makes you feel happy.
Anyway--
COOKIE MONSTER: Yum!
KERMIT: That's the kind of thing that makes you feel mad!
COOKIE MONSTER: Nom!
KERMIT: I think I better talk about being mad.
Now I get mad when people do things that I don't like.
Like when a monster eats something
he's not supposed to eat.
Now you can tell I'm mad by the kind of things
that I say to the monster.
Like this.
[YELLING] You big, dumb--
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh!
KERMIT: Rotten monster!
You make me so mad I don't believe it!
You are, without a doubt, one of the nastiest monsters
I've ever seen!
And I'm so mad I'm gonna tell all my friends how rotten you
are!
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh!
KERMIT: And nobody's gonna ever play with you anymore!
Nobody's gonna even talk to you anymore!
That's how mad I am!
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh Froggy!
KERMIT: And furthermore, I'm gonna tell your mother on you!
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh, not my mommy!
KERMIT: Your mother!
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh!
KERMIT: And your mother's not gonna let you come here
anymore!
COOKIE MONSTER: Froggy!
Please Froggy, not my mommy!
KERMIT: I'm gonna tell your mommy.
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh, I'd be so sad.
KERMIT: You're gonna be sad?
COOKIE MONSTER: So sad if you tell my mommy!
So sad!
KERMIT: You'll really be sad, huh?
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh, so sad!
KERMIT: Wow.
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh! [SOBS]
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh so sad!
KERMIT: Look at that!
KERMIT: Yes.
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh!
KERMIT: Do you know what?
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh!
KERMIT: Now we can talk about being sad.
COOKIE MONSTER: So sad.
So sad.
KERMIT: Hey listen, if you want to see what sad is,
look at the monster.
COOKIE MONSTER: [SOBBING]
KERMIT: Yes!
See the monster?
He's crying because he's so sad.
COOKIE MONSTER: So sad!
Oh, I am, I am!
KERMIT: You see?
Yes, indeed.
And he's sad because he feels bad.
COOKIE MONSTER: I feel bad!
KERMIT: Right.
COOKIE MONSTER: And sad!
KERMIT: Hey, listen you.
Listen you.
COOKIE MONSTER: What?
KERMIT: Don't feel so bad.
COOKIE MONSTER: Why?
KERMIT: Don't feel so bad, because I forgive you.
COOKIE MONSTER: You do?
KERMIT: I certainly do.
Because you just now helped me show everyone what sad is.
Hey now, hand me that thing down there.
COOKIE MONSTER: Oh, this over here?
KERMIT: Yes.
Hand me that.
Now look at that.
See, that's a sad face.
COOKIE MONSTER: Yeah.
KERMIT: Now I had this sad face drawn
so I could tell everybody about feeling sad.
But you see, now they just now saw you
and you just saved me the trouble
of showing them the sad face.
COOKIE MONSTER: I help you.
KERMIT: Yes!
So now I don't even need it.
And now I am happy again.
COOKIE MONSTER: You don't need sad face?
KERMIT: No, I don't need it.
COOKIE MONSTER: You sure?
KERMIT: Sure I'm sure.
Because you just now helped me--
COOKIE MONSTER: Nom!
KERMIT: I think I am going to have to talk about being mad
again.
[YELLING] Listen, you dumb, stupid, rotten monster!
How dare you--
ERNIE: I don't know.
I just feel terrible, Bert.
I don't know.
It's--
BERT: Well, why do you feel terrible?
ERNIE: Well because there's nothing special about me, Bert.
It's just that I'm plain ordinary Ernie or something.
I don't know.
It's just nothing special.
BERT: Hey Ernie.
Hey, come on.
Turn around.
Ernie, look at me.
