Grover the Lifeguard Sketch
Man:That's right... Yes, if you need a job just come over and I'll help you get one. *knocking* Come in! Good-bye.
Grover:What?
Man:I say, come in.
Grover:Come in?
Man:Yes.
Grover:Thank you! Uh, oh what a highly attractive office, oh, sir! Sir, my name is Grover.
Man:Hmm, haven't I seen you someplace before?
Grover:Well, I am presently employed down the street as a waiter at that little restaraunt.
Man:Oh, yes.
Grover:But, I would like to get a new job.
Man:Mm. What kind of a job?
Grover:I would like to get a job as a lifeguard. Hm!
Man:As a lifeguard.
Grover:Yes, sir.
Man:Hmm, well, do you know what you would have to do as a lifeguard?
Grover:Oh, but certainly, sir.
Man:Um hmm.
Grover:As I see it, I sit on a big, tall chair so I can see everybody.
Man:Yes.
Grover:Yes, and I make sure they are safe. So if I see someone, maybe, running where they might slip and fall...
Man:Yes.
Grover:...I blow my little wistle...
Man:Um hmm
Grover:...and I yell down, I yell "Slow down!" That's what I yell.
Man:Yes.
Grover:But, but if I also see maybe, uh, oh, two little children about to bump into each other...
Man:Um hmm.
Grover:...I blow my whistle...
Man:Um hmm.
Grover:...and then do you know what I say?
Man:What?
Grover:I say "Watch out!"
Man:Yes.
Grover:Yes.
Man:Um, well you, you certainly seem to have the lungs for the job.
Grover:Oh, thank you, sir. And, I also have my own lifeguard equipment.
Man:Um hmm.
Grover:I have my little lifeguard whistle, around my neck. I have my lifeguard hat. I have my lifeguard sunglasses. And, most important, I have my lifeguard nose guard. That is so the sun does not burn my cute, little nose.
Man:Yes, yes you do seem to know what to do.
Grover:Thank you, sir.
Man:But the head lifeguard will have to check you out. You can go on down to the pool.
Grover:Oh, thank you, sir, the pool... the, uh, swimming pool?
Man:Of course, a lifeguard's job is to watch all the swimmers in the swimming pool and to dive in and help them out if they need it.
Grover:Well then, uh, I think I will need one more thing to do the job right.
Man:What's that?
Grover:Swimming lessons.
