Phone call from Daddy

The telephone rings, and a young girl answers it.
"Hello," she says.
"Hi Honey, this is Daddy, is Mommy near the phone?
"No, Daddy, she's upstairs with Uncle Paul."

After a brief pause, Daddy says: "But Honey, you haven't got an Uncle Paul."

"Oh yes I do," replies the girl, "and he's upstairs in the room with Mommy right now."

Brief pause, then Daddy says:
"uh, Okay then..This is what I want you to do..Put the phone down on the table, run upstairs and knock on the bedroom door, and shout to Mommy that Daddy's car just pulled into the driveway."

The girl replies: "OK, Daddy, just a minute."

A few minutes later the girl comes back to the phone:
"I did it, Daddy."

"And what happened, Honey?" Daddy replies.

"Well, Mommy got all scared, jumped out of bed with no clothes on, ran around screaming, then she tripped on the rug and fell and hit her head on the dresser, and now she's not moving at all."

Daddy: "Oh my God, what about Uncle Paul?"

Girl: "He jumped out of bed with no clothes on too...He was all scared and he jumped out of the back window and into the swimming pool; but I guess he didn't know that you took out the water last week to clean it...He hit the bottom of the pool and I think he's dead."

(Long pause)

Then Daddy says: "Swimming pool?...Is this 546-2091?"
