Snuffy's Parents Get A Divorce

I used to be a day care worker in 1992. But I didn't work at any normal day care. I worked at one of the day cares where the Sesame Street episodes were first screened. So, what's the point of this story?

Season 23, Episode 19. No, I am not talking about the episode where Oscar's brother visits. I am talking about the unreleased episode "Snuffy's Parents Get A Divorce". What's creepy about it? Well, you're about to see!

It starts with Snuffy telling Big Bird that his parents are getting a divorce. Big Bird, thinking that this is a joke, laughs hysterically. Snuffy tells Big Bird his parents are really getting a divorce, but this makes Big Bird laugh even more, so Snuffy leaves. Back at his home, his parents are arguing. Eventually, Alice interrupts the argument, and is beaten to death by Snuffy's dad.

Snuffy and his mom tell Snuffy's dad that's no way to treat a child, but Snuffy's mom ends up being shot by Snuffy's dad.
