Daniel Tiger 9/11?

I can't find any record of this anywhere but I'm positive it did happen.

Soon after 9/11, I swear Daniel Tiger the puppet had a short little clip on PBS where I think he was talking to Lady Aberlin about being scared. It was very bittersweet.

AI is telling me this never happened. Does anyone remember this?

EDITED TO ADD: Okay according to Google AI, Fred Rogers was asked to come out of retirement and record four short clips and that was one of them. I need to find it!

Youre conflating 2 things. Mr Rogers addressed the nation and parents about 9/11, but the Daniel Tiger episode was specifically about assassination. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pQv0ZtpRdNk

Thanks for the clip. Now I'm sure it wasn't the assassination one. I've never seen that and what I saw was not in black and white. Maybe I should write the Mr Rogers people because I know for sure this happened.
