**'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 the water out**
**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........
