It was a lovely morning in New Rochelle New York. The sun was shining and the sky was clear and blue.

The Wiggles were making an appearance on the well-known variety show The Alan Brady Show

They were just singing their last song.

Now there's ten steps that I must climb

To get up to my home

And every day, as I climb

I count them as I go

I count one two three four five and six

Seven eight nine ten

(He counts one two three four five and six

Seven eight nine ten)

And when I get up to the top

I climb back down again

I count ten nine eight seven six five four

Three two and one

(He counts ten nine eight seven six five four

Three two and one)

Counting as I climb the stairs

Is so much fun

"Yeah! The Wiggles!" said Alan Brady's voice as the crowd went wild.

The Wiggles got off the stage and ran into the writers' office to find Charles Wallace and Rob Petrie waiting for them.

"You guys crushed it!" said Charles Wallace high-fiving his buddies.

"Yeah, way to wiggle, guys!" Rob agreed.

"Thanks a million, Mr Petrie!" said Jeff.

"Yeah, you guys are really something. You sure know how to pick 'em, little guy" said Rob. 

"Hey. It's what I do. Make friends with musos" said Charles Wallace.

"I'm sorry; musos?" said Rob.

"It's how we Australians sometimes say musicians" Murray explained.

"Boy. You really did live with these guys" said Rob to Charles Wallace.

Just then, a loud bang was heard outside the office. 

"Huh?" the Wiggles said one at a time. 

Rob looked out the window and saw people surrounding a crashed train.

"Charles Wallace, you're a warrior. Do something about this" he said.

"Not while I'm in this position. You know how the producer gets when he sees a writer out of the job" said Charles Wallace.

"Well, Sam's a policewoman. We can have her team check it out" said Anthony.

"Good idea, Anthony! I'll call her" said Charles Wallace.
