In this episode, Elmo, Gabriella, and Rosita played basketball against Charlie, Brandom and Kenley. Rosita is frustrated that no one knows their name and she wants to play the game. A friend will always be there and they try to figure this out. We finally get to see the Letter s games segment from Awesome Alphabet Collection. In Abby's Amazing Adventures, Abby and Ruby play golf. We sometimes make mistakes here. In Nature Explorers, We find ways that animals play.

I'm glad that after 32 years they're still using Rosita in new episodes. Back at the time she joined there was about 5 other characters who joined the show as well and didn't last. Roxy Marie, Chicago, Monty, Merry Monster, and Davey and Joey. I'm glad she made it all these years. And I love street stories that are about her. They're always really good.

The plot was very interesting. I was expecting a song, though I was kind of hoping they would have used the "Proud of My Name" song that Maya Angelou did with Elmo and the kids back in the day. That was classic. I also didn't know that Gabrielle didn't like to go by Gabi, but it made sense since no one ever called her that (presumably to avoid confusion with Maria and Luis's Gabriella who DID frequently go by Gabi). Looks like I'll have to stop calling her Gabi in the comments here.
