**'Hello?'**

**'Hi honey.** **This is Daddy.** **Is Mommy near the phone?'**

**'No, Daddy.** **She's upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Gabe.'**

**After a brief pause,**

**Daddy says,** **'But honey, you haven't got an Uncle Gabe.'**

**'Oh yes I do, and he's upstairs in the room with Mommy,** **Right now..'**

Brief Pause.

**'Uh, okay then, this is what I want you to do.** **Put the phone down on the table, run upstairs** **And knock on the bedroom door and shout to Mommy** **That Daddy's car just pulled into the driveway.'**

**'Okay, Daddy, Just a minute.'**

**A few minutes later** **The little girl comes back to the phone.**

**'I did it, Daddy.'**

**'And what happened, honey?' **

'Well, Mommy got all scared, jumped out of bed with no clothes on and ran around screaming.**

**Then she tripped over the rug, hit her head on the dresser** **And now she isn't moving at all!'**

**'Oh my God!!! What about your Uncle Gabe?'**

**'He jumped out of the bed with no clothes on, too.**

**He was all scared and he jumped out of the back window** **And into the swimming pool..** **But I guess he didn't know that you took out the water** **Last week to clean it.**

**He hit the bottom of the pool and I think he's dead.'**

*****Long Pause*****

*****Longer Pause*****

*****Even Longer Pause*****

**Then Daddy says,**

**'Swimming pool? ............**

**Is this 486-5731?'*

**No, I think you have the wrong number........*
