The set is visibly cold as the children begin shaking. ![]() Specifically, the door into the common area where the show takes place opens and closes twice, and an alternate set door which is never seen on the show opens once.

They seem to want to know if Barney is playing a trick, so they start to act as though it's a game of hide and seek. "HAVE YOU SEEN ME?" is written on the wall in large, cartoon letters.
