Earlier this week, an old video from a 2005 episode of Sesame Street resurfaced where Elmo the loveable red Muppet is seen losing his temper over not being able to eat an oatmeal raisin cookie because his friend Zoe is saving it for her pet Rocco. After the video of the muppet, who is currently hosting The Not-Too-Late Show With Elmo on HBO Max, went viral, the team managing Elmo’s Twitter account decided to have some fun. Little did they know that the viral feud would grab the attention of Black Adam star Johnson.

For those wondering, Rocco isn’t a rock-inspired puppet, it is literally just a rock. It first appeared on Sesame Street in 1999 on an episode called “Zoe’s pet rock, Rocco.” Since its introduction, Elmo has not been pleased with its presence around his best friend, and is seen losing his temper around it several times.

At first, Elmo claimed on Twitter that he and Zoe “practiced sharing” and were still best friends. He didn’t, however, want to talk about Rocco. But, it didn’t seem like the feud was over, because immediately after, Elmo shared a petty tweet about a rock eating cookies. The drama exploded when Johnson got involved and wanted to introduce Elmo to cheat meals.

In what seemed like a friendly tweet at first, Johnson went on to issue a warning and asked “Cookie Monster to move it over, cuz I’m coming to Sesame Street to kick ass and eat cookies.” Just when Elmo’s followers thought the drama couldn’t escalate any more, the Cookie Monster Twitter account responded to Johnson, “me say cookie challenge accepted!”

It would be absolutely amazing to watch Johnson come on a segment on HBO Max’s The Not-Too-Late Show With Elmo and devour some cookies. It doesn’t seem too far-fetched an idea either, as the streamer has just wrapped filming season 2 of the series. Fans are already loving the drama on Twitter, and it wouldn’t hurt to bring it to television.

The Not-Too-Late Show With Elmo is streaming on HBO Max.
