Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk comes to Sesame Street and tells Leela and Telly he has a problem. He only has a cow, but he needs a beanstalk! He knows he�s supposed to trade the cow for something but doesn�t know what. Leela gives him a clue�he needs to find something that grows in the ground.
Jack quickly returns with a duck. But ducks don�t grow in the ground! Leela gives Jack another clue�to find something that rhymes with �jeans.� Jack comes back with a tambourine in each hand. �Tambourine� rhymes with �jeans� but tambourines don�t grow in the ground. They�re musical instruments. Jack becomes discouraged and is convinced he is never going to be able to grow a beanstalk.
Leela gives him one more clue�he needs to look for something little. He trades the cow in and comes back with a handful of beans. They match all the clues�beans grow in the ground, rhyme with jeans, and they are little. Hooray! Jack found something that turns into a beanstalk. Leela shows Jack how to plant the beans in the garden. She covers the beans with soil, waters the beans, and lets the sun shine down. Suddenly, a huge beanstalk shoots up out of the ground. Telly, Leela, and Jack sing about the greatest green beanstalk that ever grew!
