- (sighs) Finally, a quiet vacation by myself.
Just me and the beach, a good book
and no distractions.
(upbeat music) (cheering)
- [Voiceover] It's time to play
everyone's favorite game show!
- Game show?
- Estimation Vacation!
- Yes, yes, that's right.
I'm your host, Guy Smiley and today,
we're here to play Estimation Vacation
with Bert from Sesame Street.
- Me?
- And our reigning champion, the estimation crustacean!
- No, thank you.
I do not want to play a game.
I am on vacation.
- And that's why it's called--
- [Voiceover Group] Estimation Vacation!
- Yes!
Now estimation means making thoughtful guess about how many
there are of something.
Don't understand?
I think you will when we begin round one where you'll be
playing for this rare 1973 manilla brend paper clip!
Yes! Yes!
- Wow! A finched manilla plant!
- Yes! Isn't it wonderful?
Now, let's get started.
Here are two chickens dancing the hula.
Now, can you estimate how many hula dancing
chickens there are here?
(group shouting)
Estimation Crustacean, you go first.
- Mm, there seems to be just a few chickens here.
Based on what two dancing chickens look like,
I would estimate there'd be about
five dancing chickens here, Guy.
- [Guy] Hm, a thoughtful estimate.
- [Crustacean] Thank you.
- Now Bert from Sesame Street, what is your estimate?
- [Bert] Oh, uh...
I don't know, 32?
- Oh, let's find out who's the closest?
There are one, two, three, four.
Four dancing chickens.
That means the Estimation Crustacean wins!
Yes, five dancing chickens is a closer estimate
than 32!
Bert, your estimation was way too high.
- Ya know, this is kinda stressful and honestly,
I just wanna relax.
- Here are two ukulele playing sheep.
(baaing)
Can you estimate how many ukulele playing sheep
there are here?
(baaing)
Estimation Crustacean?
- [Crustacean] Uh, 15.
15 ukulele playing sheep, Guy.
- Okay, okay Bert, for the grand prize,
what is your estimate?
- Okay, okay, my first estimate was too high.
Oh, just calm down Bert.
(deep breathing)
And think.
Okay, this is what two ukulele playing sheep look like.
(baaing)
Ya know, I think, I think there are 11
ukulele playing sheep, Guy.
Final answer.
- Well, let's find out.
There are one, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight,
nine, 10, 11, 12!
12 ukulele playing sheep,
which means Bert's estimate of 11 is closer
than the Estimation Crustacean's 15!
Bert, you win the final round and our grand prize!
- I did?
- Yes, you did!
- Oh wow, what did I get, what did I get?
- A vacation to Alaska!
- What? Right now?
- Yes, right now!
Come on in! - But I'm already on vacation.
- Yes!
- And I'm dressed for the beach!
- Thanks for playing
everyone's favorite game show, - I want sun and surf!
- Estimation Vacation!
- I don't wanna go to Alaska!
- Bon voyage!
- [All] I'm playing Cinderella.
- No, no, the plan is I'm Cinderella.
- No, no, no, I'm Cinderella.
- I'm so sorry.
I'm Cinderella.
- But I thought you wanted to be the Fairy Godmother.
- Oh, I'm always the fairy.
