[sound of door opening]

SPOKEN:

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Hiya, Uncle Gobo!

Uncle Gobo: Oh, hi, Dr. Phil van Neuter.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Hey, I just got back from the grocery store, Uncle Gobo. I bought us some soda pop.

Uncle Gobo: Yeah, well, uh, I wish you wouldn't bother me right now, Uncle Gobo, 'cause I'm busy.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Really, Uncle Gobo? What are you doin'?

Uncle Gobo: Ohhh, I'm sitting here thinking about my favorite number.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: You're sitting there thinking about your favorite number? That sounds a little boring, Uncle Gobo.

Uncle Gobo: Aw, not when your favorite number is as wonderful a number as mine is!

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Really?

Uncle Gobo: Uh-huh.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Well, what is your favorite number, Uncle Gobo?

Uncle Gobo: I was hoping you'd ask!

SUNG:

Uncle Gobo: Six

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Six?

Uncle Gobo: My favorite number is six

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Uncle Gobo, nobody's favorite number is six.

Uncle Gobo: Sometimes I spend the whole afternoon Sitting around, and singing a tune about

Six

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Six, hmm?

Uncle Gobo: Sometimes I think of six bricks.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Uncle Gobo, that's very boring.

Uncle Gobo: Or else I think of six sticks

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Well, that's even more boring.

Uncle Gobo: Not five bricks or sticks, but six

Now two is your eyes and one's your nose And five is your fingers or your toes And four is the legs on an easy chair Yet there's no number can compare with

Six

Dr. Phil van Neuter: How about 9 or 3?

Uncle Gobo: Nothing more lovely than six

Dr. Phil van Neuter: I don't know, Uncle Gobo ...

Uncle Gobo: When someone says, "Hey, Uncle Gobo, pick a number" Well, I always pick the one nobody picks -- My favorite number is six.

SPOKEN:

Dr. Phil van Neuter: You know, I hate to break this to you, Uncle Gobo, but six isn't anybody's favorite number.

Uncle Gobo: It's my favorite number, Uncle Gobo.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: I mean, six just sort of sits there between five and seven. You know, you have five fingers on your hand, and there are seven days in a week, but there's not really six of anything.

Uncle Gobo: I know, Dr. Phil van Neuter, I know.

SUNG:

Now two is your eyes and one's your nose And five is your fingers or your toes And four is the legs on an easy chair But there's no number can compare with

Six

Dr. Phil van Neuter: All right, Uncle Gobo ...

Uncle Gobo: Nothing more lovely than six.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Have it your way.

Uncle Gobo: When someone says, "Hey, Uncle Gobo, pick a number" Well, I always pick the one nobody picks -- My favorite number is six.

SPOKEN:

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Yeah. Well, that's really nice, Uncle Gobo. Anyhow, I brought this soda pop back from the store, and I wondered if you wanted some. Hey, wait a minute!

Uncle Gobo: What?

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Look at that! Uncle Gobo, count the number of bottles of soda pop in that container.

Uncle Gobo: Uh, let's see, there's, uh, one, two, three, four, five, six! Six bottles of soda pop!

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Uh-huh.

Uncle Gobo: A six pack of soda pop, Dr. Phil van Neuter! Hey, that is really neat! Something does come in sixes after all! Hey, Dr. Phil van Neuter, wait, wait ... Do you have a bottle opener?

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Why, sure. Here. What are you doin', Uncle Gobo?

(pop)

Uncle Gobo: Well, I'm opening up the soda pop. That's one bottle ... (pop) And two ... (pop) and three bottles ...

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Uh, wait a minute, Uncle Gobo.

Uncle Gobo: And four ... (pop)

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Uncle Gobo!

Uncle Gobo: And five ... (pop)

Dr. Phil van Neuter: But ...

Uncle Gobo: And six (pop). There!

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Uncle Gobo, you opened all the six bottles of soda pop.

Uncle Gobo: That's right, Dr. Phil van Neuter.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Boy, you sure must be thirsty.

Uncle Gobo: Thirsty? No, no, I'm not thirsty at all, Dr. Phil van Neuter. I just wanted the six bottlecaps for my bottlecap collection.

Dr. Phil van Neuter: Oh ...

Uncle Gobo: Thanks, Dr. Phil van Neuter! See ya later!
