BERT: [SIGH]
ERNIE: Hello, Bert.
BERT: Hmm?
Oh, hi, Ernie.
[SIGH]
ERNIE: Hey, Bert,
what are you doing?
BERT: Hmm?
Just, uh, just thinking.
ERNIE: Oh.
BERT: [SIGH]
ERNIE: What are you
thinking about, Bert?
BERT: Oh, my-- my
favorite number.
ERNIE: Oh, really?
BERT: Yeah.
ERNIE: Gee.
Oh, that sounds,
um, boring, Bert.
BERT: Oh, not my number.
ERNIE: Oh, oh, I guess not.
BERT: No.
ERNIE: No, certainly not.
BERT: Uh-uh.
ERNIE: Not your number, Bert.
Bert?
BERT: Huh?
ERNIE: Well, what's
your favorite number?
BERT: I thought you'd never ask.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SINGING] Six.
ERNIE: Six?
BERT: [SINGING] My
favorite number is six.
ERNIE: Bert, nobody's
favorite number is six.
BERT: [SINGING] Sometimes,
I spend the whole afternoon
sitting around and
singing a tune about six.
ERNIE: Six, hmm?
BERT: [SINGING] Sometimes,
I think of six bricks.
ERNIE: Bert, that's very boring.
BERT: [SINGING] Or else
I think of six sticks.
ERNIE: Well, that's
even more boring.
BERT: [SINGING] 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.
ERNIE: How about nine or three?
BERT: [SINGING] Nothing
more lovely than six.
ERNIE: I don't know, Bert.
BERT: [SINGING] When
someone says, "Hey,
Bert, pick a number,"
well, I always
pick the one nobody picks.
My favorite number is six.
ERNIE: You know, I hate to
break this to you, Bert,
but six isn't anybody's
favorite number.
BERT: It's my favorite
number, Ernie.
ERNIE: 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.
BERT: I know, Ernie, I
know. [SINGING] 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.
ERNIE: All right, Bert.
BERT: [SINGING] Nothing
more lovely than six.
ERNIE: Have it your way.
BERT: [SINGING] When
someone says, "Hey,
Bert, pick a number,"
well, I always
pick the one nobody picks.
My favorite number is six.
[SPEAKING] Hey, Ernie,
what are you doing?
Can I-- I sit in my chair, huh?
ERNIE: Uh, not--
not right now, Bert.
I'm-- I'm thinking, Bert.
BERT: About what?
ERNIE: I'm thinking about
my favorite number, Bert.
BERT: Oh, really?
What is it?
What is it?
ERNIE: 8,243,721, Bert.
BERT: I still like six.
ELMO: Missed.

VENUS WILLIAMS: Elmo,

ELMO: Oh, yeah, baby.
By a mile.
