The neighborhood is more noisy than its suppose to as a construction group is currently digging a hole where a new building will be built. Bob, Gordon, Susan, and some of the neighborhood kids watch in amazement at the development in progress. The only resident in Sesame Street who isn't too thrilled by the construction is Mr. Hooper. Due to the noise level, he isn't able to tend his shop at peace. So he announces that his shop will remain closed for the day while he takes a peaceful break at the park. Gordon, Susan, and Bob didn't want the local neighborhood shop closed, so Gordon suggests to Mr. Hooper that he, Bob, and Susan can run the shop during Hooper's day off. Mr. Hooper didn't object to the idea as long as it means he can spend time at a park that is far away from the construction. As the three substitute clerks reopen the shop, each of them had a different way of running things. Which lead to the decision of having Gordon, Bob, and Susan take turns as the clerk of the shop. They soon learn its not easy to run a shop successfully even while using the letters W,E,S and the numbers 2 and 3 as the sponsors.
