(One boy is on his hands and knees as the mower.) OWNER: [yanking imaginary rope, while mower splutters] This darned old mower, I can't get it going. I need some help. [gets help from another Six member]
1ST HELPER: So, you just want me to yank on this rope, and get it started, easy! [yanking rope]
MOWER: [splutters, bobs up and down]
1ST HELPER: I'm sorry can't seem to do it. Have you checked the gas?
OWNER: Yes, I have. Thanks anyway. Well, let's see who else has a strong arm. [selects another Six member] What I need you to do is give a real good yank on the starting rope and make it run.
2ND HELPER: Sure thing. [yanks rope a couple of times]
MOWER: [bobs up and down, splutters, coughs]
2ND HELPER: Sorry, I can't do it either.
OWNER: What I need is someone big and strong. [selects Leader] (Leader will probably make some comments to throw you, but let him talk and get him to pull the rope.)
MOWER: [splutters, coughs, starts to vibrate and run]
OWNER: There, all it needed was a Big jerk.
