Bert: "Oh, Ernie!" (shaking his head)

Ernie: "Now comes the action part! (reads excitedly) "Q! R, S! T! U, V!" "

Ernie: "Here comes the wind-up--"W, X, Y--" "

Suddenly Ernie begins to roll up the paper. Berts turns to him.

Bert: "Well?"

Ernie: "Well what?"

Bert: "Well go on, finish it. You went, "T, U, V, W, X, Y," and then you stopped. Go on, finish the story."

Ernie: "And tell you how it ends? Then you'll never want to read it for yourself!"

(Laughs and goes off)

Bert: "Sighhhhhhhhhhhh......"
