Bert is examining a cookie in his hand.
Bert: "Mmmmmmm, mmmm. ".
Ernie: (barging in) "A cookie?! Oh boy a cookie! I love cookies and oh boy am I hungry! ".
(He grabs Bert's hand and starts bringing the cookie to his mouth. Bert angrily stops him.).
Bert: "Ernie, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-HOLD IT! ".
Ernie: (tries again) "But it's a cookie and I'm hungry and--".
Bert: (jerks away) "Ernie, this is MY cookie. I've been saving it all day just for ME. ".
Ernie: "Oh but, Bert, you wouldn't share the cookie with your best friend? ".
Bert: "Ernie, I've been saving it; this cookie is for ME. ".
Ernie: "Oh but Bert, if this were my cookie, I would share it with you. ".
Bert: (skeptical) "No you wouldn't. ".
(Bert starts to eat the cookie, Ernie stops him).
Ernie: "Oh but Bert, if this were my cookie, Bert if this were my cookie, I'd be glad to share it with you. " (abruptly he snatches it away from Bert).
Bert: "Ernie! ".
Ernie: "Just a minute, Bert, just a minute. ".
Bert: "Ernie, that's my cookie! ".
Ernie: "Oh but Bert, if this were my cookie, I'd gladly share it with you. Just ask me. ".
Bert: "Ernie, that's--".
Ernie: "No, just ask me. ".
Bert: "This is silly. (forced) Ernie, would you share that cookie with me? Augh! ".
Ernie: "Why I'd be glad to! (He breaks it in half, gives one piece to Bert and gobbles down the other half. [Did he get lessons from Cookie Monster?) See, Bert? I told you I'd share the cookie with you. Isn't that better? " (leaves).
Bert: (standing bewildered with the half-cookie) "I don't understand.. ".
(Ernie pops back, asking) : "Say Bert, would you share that half-cookie with me--".
Bert: "AAAAUUUUUGGGGHH! Leave me alone! "
