1. What happened to the other half of your bicycle?

- Oh, I'm missing some?

2. Hey you lost a wheel.
- No, I found one.
- No, I lost 3.
- No, I lost a car.
- No, I lost my mind.
- No, it's right underneath me.
- I could only afford one wheel.
- Yes, I did.
- Oh, am I missing some?

- On my bicycle.
- Where's your steering wheel?
- On my skateboard.
- I use them to drive my car.

4. How do you ride that?

- How do I ride what?
- Using my legs.
- Usually with my hands, but not right now.

5. I can do that!
- Oh.
- You can do what?
- And I can walk, just like you.

6. Do a wheelie!
- (stop and do some hopping)
- Roll over!
- I am.

7. (when pushing your unicycle) Can you ride that?
- No, I'm taking it for a walk.
- Ride what?

8. (for tall unicycle) How's the weather up there?
- Snowing.
- Made of oxygen.
- Up where?

9. How do you get down?
- An escalator.
- An elevator.
