As the title suggests, Sesame Street season 20 episode 5 revolves around meeting a new baby. The episode starts with Maria and Luis who are eagerly awaiting the arrival of a new baby who is due any day. The anticipation and excitement are palpable.

During the episode, Big Bird and Snuffy meet Baby Natasha for the first time. They are smitten with her and offer to help care for her. They quickly realize that caring for a baby is no easy task. They learn how to change diapers, prepare bottles, and soothe a crying baby.

Meanwhile, Maria and Luis are busy setting up the nursery and buying all the essentials. They also share with their friends and neighbours the news of the baby's arrival. Everyone is thrilled and excited to welcome the new addition to the Sesame Street family.

As the episode continues, we see different characters reacting to the news of the baby's arrival. Oscar the Grouch is his usual grumpy self and complains about the noise that a baby brings. However, even he cannot resist the cuteness of Baby Natasha when he meets her.

Elsewhere on Sesame Street, Bob and Gordon give Big Bird and Snuffy some tips for taking care of a baby. They also help them understand that babies cry for a reason and that it is not always easy to figure out why.

The episode also features a few musical numbers including one where Elmo and the gang sing "the baby song." The song is catchy and fun and teaches children about the different sounds a baby makes.

Towards the end of the episode, we see Maria and Luis finally bringing baby Natasha home from the hospital. Everyone from the Sesame Street neighborhood comes to visit and welcome the new baby. The episode ends with everyone singing a lullaby to help Natasha fall asleep.
