Ernie asks Bert to keep an eye on his pyramid of blocks. The Count walks by, and counts the blocks, moving them out of the pyramid shape. Then he counts them again, putting them back into the pyramid. Bert yells at the Count for moving Ernie's blocks, so the Count counts the blocks again, taking the pyramid apart.
Notes[]
This is The Count's first appearance. He's slightly more sinister than he would later become. He enters the scene with his cape in front of his face, in an exaggerated Bela Lugosi pose. The Count can momentarily hypnotize people, waving his fingers to temporarily stun Ernie and Bert. When the Count finishes counting, lightning flashes in the background.
