I don't remember three things that happened that night.
I wouldn't say that sentence is ambiguous, but it is somewhat odd. Much more likely would be:
  • I don't remember what happened last night.
Or:
  • I don't remember anything that happened last night.
If the person doesn't remember what happened, how does he know it was three things he doesn't remember?

:wink:
