- Hey Bert.
- What is it Ernie?
- You know, Bert, I just remembered, I didn't
put away all my toys.
I left a big mess in the other room.
Do you think I should get up and clean that stuff up now?
- Ernie, it's time to go to sleep now.
You can do that in the morning.
- Yeah.
It's pretty messy in there, Bert.
- Well, Ernie, you're just a little messy.
I've learned that.
I'm used to it.
Let's go to sleep.
- You know, Bert, you're a real friend.
I'm messy, and you don't like it messy,
but because I'm your friend, you don't mind too much
if I'm messy.
- Well, not too much, Ernie.
Let's just go to sleep.
- But, that's what a friend is, Bert.
I mean, not minding too much because you like someone.
That's a friend, Bert.
A pal.
Not minding.
That's what friends are for.
