"(Bob) Okay, Larry, it's time for the theme song." "(Larry) Um, yeah, Bob, what do I do?" "(Bob) Hmm, let's see..." "I know, you play the guitar." "(Larry) Bob, I don't have any hands." "(Bob) Oh, you're right." "Okay..." "you play this." "(Larry) Oh, I don't want to play that," "I'll look silly." "(Bob) Oh, come on, it'll be fun." "(Larry) Nope, not going to do it." "(Bob) It's for the kids." "(Larry) Oh, okay." "But they better not laugh." "(Bob) Alright, you'd better get on out there." "Bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom..." "If you like to talk to tomatoes, if a squash can make you smile, if you like to waltz with potatoes up and down the produce aisle... have we got a show for you." "Veggie Tales, Veggie Tales," "Veggie Tales, Veggie Tales." "Veggie Tales, Veggie Tales," "Veggie Tales, Veggie Tales." "(Bob) Broccoli, celery, got to be... (singers) Veggie Tales!" "(Junior) Lima beans, collard greens, peachy keen... (singers) Veggie Tales!" "(Larry) Cauliflower, sweet and sour, half an hour," "(singers) Veggie Tales." "There's never ever, ever, ever, ever been a show like Veggie Tales." "There's never ever, ever, ever, ever been a show like Veggie Tales." "It's time for Veggieta-a-a-a-a-a-a-ales." "[bonk] [kids laughing]" "Hi kids, and welcome to VeggieTales!" "I'm Bob the tomato..." "And I'm Larry the cucumber!" "Today we got a letter from Edmund Storch of Fort Washakie, Wyoming." "That's a mouthful." "It certainly is." "Edmund asks:" ""Dear Bob and Larry, the other night" ""I accidentally left the top off the hamster cage" ""after playing with my hamster, Squeaky." ""When I came back in the morning," ""Squeaky was gone." ""I'm so sad." "What should I do?"" "Poor kid." "I had a hamster run away once." "I feel your pain, Edmund Storch." "Edmund, I'm really sorry about your hamster, but I'm not sure there's a lesson here... it sounds like it was just an accident..." "Sure there's a lesson, Bob." "There is?" "Yeah, I'm sure there's a story in the vault that'll be great for Edmund." "Ah... the vault?" "The veggie vault..." "on veggie D VD... where we keep our vast collection of animated masterpieces." "[dryly] I wasn't aware of such a vault." "(Larry) Ya gatta have a vault." "That's a dresser." "That's the beauty of it." "No one would ever suspect I keep our vast collection of animated masterpieces in a sock drawer!" "Hello!" "I am Lutfi!" "The friendly teensy weensy vault keeper!" "I am like a banker..." "who is also a sock!" "(Larry) Hi, Lutfi!" "It's been awhile, Khalil." "No-no-no-no-no!" "I am not Khalil!" "I am Lutfi;" "I am cute and teensy-weensy." "Ah, right." "Lutfi." "Good to see you." "I could not help but hear your dilemma through the thin walls of my pine fortress." "I am sure I can find just the thing for Edmund!" "What'd I tell ya?" "I'm game... [music]" "Bravo Figaro." "Bravo, bravissimo." "Bravo Figaro." "Bravo, bravissimo." "Fortunatissimo, bravo fortunatissimo, non manchera!" "La la la, la la la, La la la, la la la, La la la!" "Fortunatissimo, fortunatissimo, fortunatissimo, non manchera!" "[music] [chirping crickets]" "[music]" "(Announcer) And now it is time for the blues with Larry." "The part of the show where Larry comes out and sings the blues." "[music]" "Hey there, everybody." "I'm gonna lay down some blues." "All sunshine and roses, no rain came my way." "I said, all sunshine and roses, no rain came my way." "My dad bought me ice cream," "Oh happy, happy, happy, happy day." "[music]" "I ate up that ice cream, got some on my face." "That's right, right on my face." "(I said) I ate up that ice cream, got some on my face." "Got some on the table" "Oh happy-sticky, happy-sticky, happy, happy, happy-sticky, happy place!" "[music]" "Hey man, what you doin'?" "I'm singin' the blues!" "Oh man, the blues is for singing when you feel sad." "But..." "I don't feel sad." "Then you got no business singing the blues." "Here, lemme help you out..." "Take this." "Cool!" "Ice cream!" "Thanks!" "Now, gimme back that ice cream." "[music]" "You took my ice cream." "You took it from me." "You took my ice cream." "You took it away from me." "Oh yeah!" "Now you're gettin' it..." "Now listen up." "[music]" "But I'm still not sad..." "I'll just have a cookie." "No, no, no, man..." "You almost had it..." "C'mon, like this..." "You took my ice cream." "You took it away from me." "[music]" "My sweet, creamy ice cream..." "I don't care about no cookie." "Whoa!" "[smash]" "Now, try it again..." "My cookie and ice cream, they both gone away." "That's right." "Feel it..." "My cookie and ice cream, they both gone away." "Oh sweet, man, sweet!" "But that don't bother me none..." "I've got me my freshly baked..." "Strudel!" "What?" "!" "Strudel?" "!" "Man, you can't say "strudel" in the blues." "That don't even rhyme..." "We'll... what about, "poodle?"" "'Cuz, I've got a poodle." "Don't tell me you gonna eat that poodle." "No, I'm just gonna pet him." "Pettin' poodles makes me happy." "[ruff, ruff] [music]" "Sorry man..." "You way too happy to sing the blues..." "'Allo!" "Would you like to polka?" "Sure!" "Don't got no ice cream, no cookies, no strudel." "Don't got no ice cream, no cookies, no strudel." "But I'm yodel-yodel happy-hoo just here with my poodle." "That's right, I'm yodel-yodel happy-hoo just me and my poodle." "(Announcer) This has been the blues with Larry, tune in next time to..." "oh, never mind..." "Larry's not likely to be singing the blues again any time soon... [music]" "(Announcer) If one dare listens then one dare hears;" "a tale to rouse your secret fears!" "Tarry not!" "For the end draws nigh on Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly!" "[door creaks]" "[upbeat disco music]" "(sighs)" "Your tea, Mr. Butterbun!" "They'll be no tea today, Poole." "There's trouble brewing." "Um, there was no trouble brewing sir," "I just heated up some water and..." "Not the tea, Poole!" "Not the tea!" "It's that..." "Creature in the alley..." "There's something wrong with his appearance;" "something displeasing, something downright..." "Detestable!" "Well..." "I watched him dance last night." "He looks a little weird, but he's got some great moves." "That's where you're wrong Poole!" "Don't let his fancy footwork fool you!" "Ah!" "And what's this!" "The monster's afoot in Dr. Jiggle's house!" "Quick, Poole!" "We've got to warn the doctor!" "Okay... [knock, knock, knock]" "Ahhhh!" "What?" "The hand!" "?" "What?" "Oh." "Mr. Butterbun..." "Dr. Jiggle!" "Thank goodness you're alright!" "Well yeah, I..." "We've come to warn you!" "You've an intruder!" "A detestable disco dancin' villain ducked through your back door!" "Oh..." "Yeah..." "Well..." "You must mean Mr. Sly." "Mr. Sly?" "Oh yeah!" "Man, can that guy dance, or what?" "Yeah!" "Didn't I tell ya?" "That little thing he does with his hips..." "He's got to be the best dancer in the whole world!" "What?" "!" "You're in cahoots with that creature?" "!" "Well..." "Yeah..." "I mean..." "You gotta like a guy who can dance like that, right?" "Well..." "I suppose..." "I know I could never dance like that." "I mean, just look at me..." "I'm too jiggly." "Ever since I was a little boy in widely tailored pants my only aspiration was to be a gourd... who danced." "But for what it's worth my portly girth only served to make folks giggle for the more I moved the more I proved all I could do was... jiggle." "I want to dance!" "I want to groove!" "I need to feel the rush of the wind under my shoes!" "I want to dance..." "What was I saying?" "Barometer must be rising." "Me joints are locking' up." "Yep." "I think Mr. Sly is great..." "On account of his non-jiggly wonderful dancing and all..." "You guys would really like him." "I know you would!" "Look..." "Dr. Jiggle..." "Maybe I've been a bit harsh about this "Mr. Sly" friend of yours..." "Perhaps, I owe him an apology." "Would you mind introducing us?" "Ahh..." "No..." "I'm afraid that's not possible..." "You see, he's real busy..." "But..." "Now if you'll excuse me gentlemen..." "I have work to do..." "Got to do doctor stuff." "Bye!" "G'night!" "Poor Dr. Jiggle." "Something tells me he's in trouble, Poole." "And I suspect it's no small fault of that new friend of his." "I'm going to get to the bottom of this!" "If he be Mr. Sly, I shall be Mr. Sneak!" "Huh?" "Aaaaah!" "What?" "!" "The feet!" "What?" "Ahhhh!" "It's him." "Do you have it?" "Yeah." "I got it." "Good." "Now remember." "You give Mr. Sly the invitation before he starts dancing." "Once he finishes, we'll go back to my house and have a nice talk over tea." "Then we'll see what he's got up his sleeve!" "Got it." "Okay, go!" "[music] [applause]" "Ahhhh!" "What?" "The... wa... the..." "Hhh..." "Oh, never mind." "Um..." "What time it is?" "It's 11:58..." "Mr. Sly will be out at any minute." "Look, Poole, this may be the last chance we get." "Nobody's seen or heard from Dr. Jiggle in two days." "No more mamsy-pamsy pleasantries." "When sly comes out we nab him, pure and simple." "Got it?" "[gasps]" "Dr. Jiggle!" "Dr." "Jiggle!" "Oh..." "Good evening gentlemen." "I trust you're well, Dr!" "I've been feelin' a little woosy lately..." "Look..." "Dr." "Why don't you join us?" "We're about to watch your friend dance... it'll do you good to get outside and whip up your circulation!" "Well..." "I..." "Ahhhhh!" "Dr. Jiggle!" " Dr. Jiggle!" "[music] [click!" "]" "[crowd gasps] all right, ya flashy fiend!" "What have you done with the Dr?" "I said, what have you done with Dr. Jiggle?" "Wa...?" "Those eyes..." "I know those eyes..." "Something so familiar..." "Could it be?" "[gasps] [gasps]" "Huh?" "Ahhh..." "Dr. Jiggle!" "But..." "Wa... ahh..." "Why?" "I've been taking dance lessons..." "All I've ever wanted to do was dance..." "I was afraid people would laugh at me for being so jiggly..." "So you dressed up like that kooky creature so people wouldn't laugh at you?" "And so people would like me." "You gotta like a guy who can dance and not jiggle..." "Right?" "But, man, did that costume hurt." "I think I bruised my spleen." "Dr. Jiggle..." "We've always liked you." "Jiggle and all!" "Really?" "You can bet your whacky wig!" "And I think it's great you've been taking dancing lessons, but you don't need that silly spleen bruisin' get-up to dance..." "You're special just the way God made ya!" "Really?" "Say..." "That little move that you do with your hips..." "You mind showing' a rusty old carrot how it's done?" "I love that move." "I've always loved that move." "But, I can't do that..." "Dr. Jiggle..." "Oh..." "Oh, why not?" "!" "Great!" "Wonderful." "Alright!" "I can't wait to see it." "It's gonna be splendid." "Stand back and give him room." "[music]" "I can do it!" "..." "I can do it!" "You see, Dr. Jiggle... when ya know God made you special, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks!" "You can just be yourself!" "Though your only aspiration was to be a gourd who danced." "What I never knew that I could do in widely tailored pants." "But for what it's worth your portly girth doesn't make me want to giggle." "Though dense when weighed you're specially made we love our Dr. Jiggle!" "[music]" "I want to dance!" "I want to groove!" "I need to feel the rush of the wind under my shoes!" "He wants to dance!" "Oh, yeah, I can dance!" "He wants to groove!" "You can dance if you want to." "He wants to feel the rush of the wind under his shoes!" "I want to dance!" "Well, Edmund..." "feeling better?" "Good stuff there, Lutfi." "Wait a minute!" "A singing aardvark, hauling a piano up a hill, the blues..." "Dr. Jiggle." "What's all that have to do with Edmund's problem?" "Hmm..." "a valid concern..." "Not to worry!" "This is where Paco comes in!" "Paco?" "!" "Hola." "I am Paco, the storytelling mule!" "Mr. Lunt?" "Is that you?" "How'd you get in there?" "I am not Mr. Lunt!" "I am Paco the storytelling mule!" "Permit me to illustrate the relevance of these tales to Edmund's conundrum..." "Once upon a time there was a boy named Edger..." "Edmund." "Edmund..." "who had a hamster." "I will show him to you." "The boy and the hamster were very happy, until one day the singing aardvark of the north appeared." "He came from the north..." "hence the name." "The aardvark sang so beautifully that the hamster was lured away from Edger... (Bob) Edmund!" "Edmund..." "lured away to a great hill..." "A somewhat mediocre hill..." "A lousy little hill..." "And they climbed the..." "Great and lousy hill, until they met... at the very top..." "Abraham Lincoln!" "Ahh..." "Abraham Lincoln?" "Yeah, I thought the kids should learn more about our first president." "Sixteenth." "Right!" "So Abraham Lincoln said," ""Welcome to the great and lousy hill," ""hamster and singing aardvark of the north!" ""I will now teach you my jiggly dance of joy," ""which you shall share with the orphans of the village!"" "(Paco) "Now, go!" "And share the dance of joy with all you meet!"" "So you see, Edger... (Bob) Edmund!" "Edmund..." "You have lost a hamster, but the orphans have gained the dance of joy." "So maybe it's a wash." "[dryly] Well, that clears things up." "Thank you, Paco." "That was not as illuminating as I had hoped." "Perhaps another visit to the vault?" "Goodie!" "More stories!" "His majesty, the troubled Prince Omelet requests his daily eggs!" "Cooked light and fluffy!" "Doth not the troubled prince know that these are the last eggs in the entire kingdom?" "But of course!" "Why do you think he is troubled!" "Will the prince not share his eggs with his starving people?" "Perhaps he'll think about that over lunch." "[sigh] The prince's eggs coming up." "[scuffling noises]" "Woe is me." "I am troubled." "Alas, forsooth the country is rapidly running out of eggs." "The people are starving and I am helpless to help them!" "What will become of my kingdom?" "[sniff, sniff]" "Ah-ha!" "Something's cooking in the state of Denmark!" "Your eggs, Prince Omelet!" "Cooked light and fluffy." "The last eggs in the kingdom." "The last poor yolks." "I'll chew them well, Horatio." "But soft." "It is Ophelia." "But soft." "It is Ophelia." "But I don't want to do it!" "It's embarrassing!" "Don't be ridiculous." "It's tradition." "In Shakespeare's day all the women's roles were played by men." "I think we're gonna get letters about this." "It is I, the fair Ophelia." "Uhh... pray thee, what news, fair Ophelia?" "I beseech thee..." "my lady." "Oh, my lord." "I come with disparaging news!" "More bad news?" "!" "The people, my lord." "They're starving." "There are not enough eggs for them." "Meanwhile, you feast on eggs every day, cooked light and fluffy." "'Tis rottenness that has beset our fair kingdom." "And on top of that, my eggs are getting cold!" "Oh, my troubled prince, I beseech and implore thee." "Please share, share your eggs with the people." "Share my eggs?" "Share my eggs?" "Then I won't have any." "What are you thinking, fair Ophelia?" "Simply this," "God says He likes it when we share our blessings." "Good-bye." "Can I take this off now?" "To eat or not to eat." "That is the question." "Whether tis nobler to share my eggs, cooked light and fluffy or to scarf down the whole thing myself." "To share or not to share..." "What are you doing there, young lad?" "Just playing, your highness." "Uhhhh..." "Are you just gonna keep playing like that..." "Uh, alone?" "I do not know." "Would you like to share my game?" "Well, sure!" "Playing is the thing!" "Great!" "Just guess where you think my ships are!" "Oh, ok." "2-b?" "Not 2-b." "Drat." "Your turn." "Well, hey, what's that?" "Oh, that would be mine eggs, cooked light and fluffy." "It lookests quite yummy." "Might I try a bite?" "Ah..." "Well, ah..." "Sure..." "Sure you can." "[crunch]" "Hey!" "What?" "Methinks I just shared with you, didn't I?" "Methinks you did." "Ha!" "Sharing." "You know, that wasn't so bad." "Actually, it felt pretty good!" "Your highness, the things God wants us to do for others usually make us feel good, too!" "You called, your highness?" "No, not yet!" "My mistake!" "Oh, servant!" "You called, your highness?" "Ah, yes." "Call everyone together." "I have an announcement to make." "Mais oui, your highness." "Good people of Denmark." "I have decided to share my eggs with you." "(crowd) Yeah!" "Yeah!" "You're the man!" "Because God likes it when we share our blessings." "(crowd) Yeah!" "Yeah!" "But sire, there aren't enough eggs to go around." "Where do you find these eggs, anyway?" "You know, they're the little white round things that come out of chickens." "What?" "!" "We thought those were ping pong balls!" "We got plenty of those!" "Eggs cooked light and fluffy for everyone!" "(crowd) Yeah!" "I have an idea!" "Why don't we name these light and fluffy eggs after our beloved prince?" "I give you the "Omelet"!" "(crowd) Yeah!" "Yeah!" "Hey boss, where might I find some toast?" "Get thee to a bakery!" "Did you understand any of that?" "Not a word." "(Announcer) And now it's time for Silly Songs with Larry." "The part of the show where Larry comes out and sings a silly song." "There once was a boy who lived in a house and the house sat under a tree." "By the tree ran a fence, that stretched far and wide round the gated community..." "Can I have my ball?" "Can you get my ball?" "I kicked it into the tree." "And my ball bounced up and my ball dropped in to the gated community!" "[music]" "Oh!" "The gated community is where we like to be." "Everything's so lovely." "Oh, our hearts are filled with glee." "And when you come to visit you can stand outside and see, what a lovely bunch we are... in our gated unity!" "Ahh..." "Can I have my ball?" "Can you get my ball?" "I kicked it into the tree." "And my ball bounced up and my ball dropped in to the gated community!" "Oh, the gated community is where we like to be." "Our clothes are never dirty and our lawns are always green." "And when you come to visit you can stand outside and see, what a tidy bunch we are in our gated unity!" "The gated community, we think you will agree, is free of pleasantly devoid of unsightly stray debris free, free of debris." "The gated community is where we'll always be." "Our smiles are white, 'cause we're inside, comfy custody." "And when you come to visit you can stand outside and see, what a smiling bunch we are in our gated unity." "Can I have my ball?" "Can you get my ball?" "Oh, the gated community is where we like to be!" "Our lives I kicked it made pear into a tree." "by a hefty entrance fee!" "and my ball bounced up, and my ball dropped in, And when you come to visit, you can stand outside and see, to the gated commun... what a lovely bunch we are... to the gated commun... what a happy bunch we are... [all together] To the gated community!" "(Announcer) This has been Silly Songs with Larry... (community fellow) Oh, look!" "A ball!" "(Announcer) Tune in next time to hear Larry say..." "Thank you." "[music]" "Hello." "I am the Englishman who went up a hill and came down with all the bananas, leaving, of course, the inhabitants of the hill with no bananas and therefore bestowing the term "selfish" upon myself." "You're so selfish!" "I know." "But I've got all the bananas!" "[music]" "Well, aren't you going to eat them?" "Why, of course not!" "You can't eat bananas without strawberries!" "Hello." "I'm the Swede who went up a hill and came down with all the strawberries, leaving, of course, the inhabitants of the hill with no strawberries and therefore bestowing the term "selfish" upon myself." "You're not Swedish!" "Shhhhhhh!" "You're so selfish!" "I know!" "But I've got all the strawberries!" "[music]" "Well, are you going to eat them?" "Oh, no!" "You can't eat strawberries without bananas!" "Pardon me, good Swede." "Could you spare a strawberry?" "Ah... no." "You're so selfish!" "Excuse me, Mr. Englishman." "Could I trouble you for a banana?" "Ah... no." "You're so selfish!" "You guys are not so bright!" "(Announcer) The end." "(Bob) I remember that day, that fateful trip." "(Larry) Why yes, it started from that tropic port, aboard our tiny ship." "(Bob) Now, Larry, he was a mighty sailor man." "(Larry) And Bob he was brave and sure." "(Bob) And weren't there five passengers we booked that day on our three-hour tour?" "(Larry) Ah, yes, our three-hour tour." "(Bob) Okay, let's see, there was the professor." "(Larry) And we were there." "(Bob) Well, yeah." "And the millionaire... (Larry) And his wife." "(Bob) Mm-hmm." "And wasn't there a movie star and that other girl?" "(Larry) Yeah, but they canceled." "(Bob) Oh, oh, yeah." "Well, anyway, there we were on our three-hour tour doing our best to entertain the passengers." "Some veggies went to sea, sea, sea to see what they could see, see, see." "But all that they could see, see, see was the bottom of the deep blue sea, sea, sea." "See?" "Yes, well, that was just dandy." "But isn't it time we left the dock?" "(Bob) [nervously laughing] Okay, fire up the engine first mate Larry." "Aye-aye, skipper." "Lovely day, isn't it?" "Oh, yes." "Why, just smell that salt air." "[sniff]" "Ah, mighty nice." "I think I'll go back and see how our passengers are doing." "Can you take over here?" "No, problemo, Skipper." "It's a big responsibility, you won't daydream, will you?" "(Larry) Don't worry about a thing," "I've got you covered." "Okay." "Thanks, Larry." "(Larry - thinking) Oh, boy, this is the life." "There's nothing I'd rather be than first mate Larry." "Well, nothing, that is, except... [with Russian accent] Captain Larry Romanov, the famous Russian ice-breaker pilot." "Today captain Larry must free whales." "Two great whales trapped in ice." "But there is problem!" "A large iceberg stands between captain Larry and whales." "There may not be enough time to go around it!" "But surely even captain Larry is not brave enough to smash through the iceberg!" "No one has ever done such a thing!" "Yes, this is no time for cowards." "Captain Larry will smash the iceberg and free the whales." "Commander Boblov has come to congratulate captain Larry for his bravery." "Hey, Larry, we're making snow cones back there." "Do you want peach or strawberry?" "Um, not now, Bob." "First, I have to smash through this iceberg and free some whales." "There are no icebergs around here." "Oh, yeah?" "Well, what do you call that?" "Ahh!" "Ahh!" "[crush]" "Oh!" "The brochure didn't say anything about layovers." "Well, you see, Lovey." "I believe we've had some sort of an accident." "Skipper?" "Yes, we most certainly had an accident and I think someone has some explaining to do." "Well, you see, there were these whales and they were stuck in the ice, and well, the only way to get them out was to smash right through that iceberg over there." "Except it turned out to be a rock." "And rocks are a lot harder than icebergs." "(Professor) It just so happens that the nearest iceberg is 2, 640 miles away." "What were you thinking?" "You smashed our boat!" "Now what are we going to do?" "You have ruined our vacation." "What do you have to say for yourself?" "Um, I'm sorry?" "At least the boat is still floating." "Oh." "(Archibald) Hey, I need to call my broker." "I'm going to look for a phone." "[music]" "(Bob) That evening we all worked together to build some huts to sleep in." "But we were still pretty mad at Larry." "Gee, it's kind of nice out here." "Maybe this isn't so bad after all." "Huh, Bob?" "Not so bad?" "What do you mean "not so bad?"" "Our boat is at the bottom of the ocean and we're stuck on this island in the middle of nowhere with no way to get home." "I said I was sorry." "At least you could forgive me." "Well, it's just that we're... well, can't you see we're..." "I just..." "I just can't." "Oh." "I said I was sorry." "Well, that's just not good enough." "Good night." "Not good enough?" "Not good enough?" "He means... he means, I'm not good enough." "They all think I'm not good enough." "I bet they'd be happier if I just left." "So that's what I'll do." "I'm just going to..." "I'm going to take my things and just go away." "Yeah." "I don't have any things." "Well, I'll just go." "With just my hat." "Good-bye, Bob." "I hope you find a first mate that's good enough." "I wonder where the Skipper is." "Who?" "You know, dear, the bright red, round fellow." "Oh, yes." "Where is he anyway?" "I don't know." "That's what I was wondering." "Oh, I see." "(Bob) Has anyone seen Larry?" "Did you say something?" "No, it was that tree over there." "Really?" "Well, what did it say?" "I believe, it's looking for Larry?" "Who's Larry?" "Oh, you remember." "He's the chap who smashed the boat." "Oh, and ruined our vacation?" "That's the one." "Oh." "Well, I hope that tree gets him, serves him right." "Here, here." "(Bob) Hello, people, have you seen Larry?" "Oh, look, Lovey." "It's the Skipper." "I didn't know tomatoes grew on trees." "Well, actually, oh, never mind." "Skipper, what are you doing up there?" "I'm looking for Larry." "When I woke up this morning, he was gone." "I've got it!" "Got what?" "Our ticket outta here." "We can build to fling us back home." "Here, I'll demonstrate with this working model." "You wind it up, then someone sits here, say, Bob, for example, now just pull this cord and..." "(Lovey) Our house!" "(Bob) Ow!" "Oh, dear!" "Look what you've done to our house!" "You bonked me on the head with a coconut!" "Wow, I did not mean to do that." "I am so sorry." "Can you ever forgive me?" "Well, I guess it was an accident and you did say you were sorry, so I forgive you." "Thanks." "I'm really sorry about your house." "I'd be glad to help you fix it if you want me to." "Do you think you could forgive me?" "We know you didn't mean to do it so, so we'll forgive you." "Oh, thanks." "(Professor) Gee, it sure does feel good to be forgiven when you make mistakes." "Yes, sir." "Boy, if I said I was sorry for doing something wrong and really meant it, and people still wouldn't forgive me," "I'd feel just terrible." "Oh, yeah, definitely." "Well, Larry said he was sorry for smashing the boat." "And that was just an accident, too." "Just like when I hit you with that coconut or when you fell through their roof." "And we wouldn't forgive Larry at all." "So that's why he went away." "He must feel terrible." "We've got to find him." "Come on, everybody." "I think he's over here maybe." "Larry!" "Larry!" "Hey, little buddy!" "Larry!" "Larry!" "Larry, Larry, Larry, Larry, Larry, Larry!" "(Bob) Hey, little buddy!" "Come back." "We have something to say to you." "[muffled yelling]" "What?" "[blowing]" "I said, " you guys don't like me anymore, so I'm just going to leave."" "We do like you, Larry." "Yes, and we forgive you for smashing the boat." "You do?" "Well, we realized that everybody makes mistakes sometimes, and it was wrong for us not to forgive you when you said you were sorry." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "Can you forgive us for not forgiving you?" "Um, okay." "I forgive you guys." "[sigh of relief]" "(Palmy) Hello?" "Did you say something?" "No, it was that tree again." "I'm so happy to see you've forgiven each other." "It makes me want to sing." "Do you mind?" "(All) No." "[music]" "You know that in love we can forgive, it is the only way to live!" "Obey God and see that we can live in harmony!" "In harmony!" "Since God has forgiven us, it's true, you forgive me, I'll forgive you." "I'm going to start to show forgiveness from my heart!" "(all) Wow!" "Super!" "That was great." "If only there was a way for us to get back home." "Yeah." "Well, at least we're all friends again." "Hey, has anybody seen the professor?" "(Larry) Nope." "What!" "Hey, do you like it?" "I made it entirely out of bamboo and coconuts." "Pretty good, huh?" "Well, climb aboard." "[music]" "(Larry) Hey, Bob?" "(Bob) Yeah, Larry?" "(Larry) Um, next summer, let's just sell lemonade, like everyone else." "(Bob) That sounds like a good idea." "You know that in love we can forgive, hey, man, it is the only way to live!" "Obey God and see, that we can live in harmony!" "Since God has forgiven us, it's true, you forgive me, I'll forgive you," "I'm going to start to show forgiveness from my heart!" "So do your part, and show forgiveness from your heart!" "[laughing]" "Oldies but goodies!" "Bob, we gotta do another story where I can use my Russian accent." "Eh, we do?" "Either "War and Peaches" or "Lime and Punishment,"" "I'm thinkin'." "My apologies, Edmund." "It's okay to be sad that your hamster's gone." "Take time to mourn your loss, and then..." "Then listen to Paco the storytelling mule as he weaves a graceful metaphor which will stitch close the fissure of Edmund's broken heart..." "Ah..." "Paco, perhaps it might be better if..." "Oh!" "Listen up, Edger!" "Edmund." "(Paco) That's what I said." "Edmund had a hamster." "I will show him to you." "The hamster was hungry." "He wanted an omelette!" "So he got an egg..." "But it was a talking egg!" ""Please don't eat me, Mr. Hamster!" "I can grant you your heart's desire!"" ""What do you know about my heart's desire?"" "the hamster replied." ""You wish to meet your father!" said the egg." ""Oh, egg... you cut me to the quick!" "Take me to my father, and I will not eat you!"" "So the egg and the hamster got in a boat, and sailed across the sea." "The egg told the hamster his father was the king of a gated community on a great hill!" "Okay, so I'm not so good with the hills." ""Father!" the young hamster cried out." ""Son!" "Thank you, egg, for bringing me my son!"" ""Yes!" "You may go home now, and I will not eat you!"" "Just then, an egg timer "dinged"..." "And from the egg emerged a beautiful chicken, who flew home across the ocean!" "Chickens can't fly." "Who swam home across the ocean!" "Chickens can't swim either." "What can chickens do?" "!" "?" "Ah... they lay eggs." "And they turn into nuggets." "Who turned into nuggets!" "And sailed back home on a modern, refrigerated cargo ship." "So you see, Edger... (Bob) Edmund!" "Your hamster has gone to a better place." "[sniff]" "Oh boy..." "Back to the vault, Lutfi!"

"Do you remember when you broke your mom's favorite vase and then stapled it back together and hoped she wouldn't notice?" "That was bad." "Do you remember when you put your pet snake in Aunt Millie's pajamas and she ran five miles without ever getting out of bed?" "That was bad, too." "And do you remember when you stuck your sister's teddy bear in the food processor and told her it got chewed up by a giant bear-eating lizard?" "And she believed it?" "That was really bad." "The Bible calls the bad things we do "sin."" "And when we sin, we need to be forgiven." "That's right." "So I know what you're thinking," ""Jeepers, I've been bad." "How do I get forgiven?""

"Not now, kid, can't you see I'm busy?" "But I know lots of people who've been forgiven for bad things they've done." "Oh, yeah?" "Well, they must have Forgive-O-Matics then, huh?" "Nope." "Well, sure." "You can't be forgiven without a Forgive-O-Matic." "Isn't that right?" "Stop yanking me up and down, I'm getting sick." "[crash]" "The Bible says if we ask God to forgive us, then He will." "You mean, all you have to do is ask?" "Yep." "You don't need a Forgive-O-Matic?" "Nope." "Are you sure about this?" "I sure am."

"[music]" "[music]" "(Lutfi) And now it's time for Lutfi's fanciful flannel graph... the part of the show where Lutfi comes out... with his fanciful flannel graph... and teaches a most important lesson!" "Hello children!" "I am Lutfi and this is my fanciful flannel graph!" "By the color of my clothes and the shamrock in my hand," "I bet you are thinking it is Saint Patrick's day." "If this is March 17 th, then you are right!" "That's because every year on March 17 th, people everywhere celebrate Saint Patrick's day!" "[music]" "(Lutfi) A long, long time ago, in a country called England a little baby was born." "His name was..." "Saint Patrick!" "(Lutfi) Hold on!" "You're not old enough to talk... and your name is not yet Saint Patrick." "Sorry." "(Lutfi) Your name is Maewyn Succat." "Hurry up and name me Saint Patrick." "(Lutfi) Shhhh." "Sorry." "(Lutfi) Maewyn Succat grew up as a normal little boy..." "Can I talk now?" "(Lutfi) Yes." "Maewyn Succat." "I'm a normal boy... a normal boy with a strange name." "(Lutfi) Maewyn went to school..." "He played..." "He went to church..." "No soccer balls in church." "(Lutfi) And he was kidnapped by pirates." "Wait." "That's not normal." "(Lutfi) If you were too normal, you would not have a holiday named after you." "Good point." "(Pirates) Argh..." "Eeeeee..." "Arrrrr... (Lutfi) The pirates took Maewyn to a country called Ireland." "There he was sold as a slave and his name was changed." "Slave bad." "Name change good." "Hi." "I'd like to request, "Saint Patrick."" "(Lutfi) Not yet." "He was now called..." "Pig boy!" "Feed the pigs, pig boy!" "Maewyn Succat has a rather nice ring to it... (Lutfi) Now this was the land of the druids, and people there spoke a different language... but we'll make believe everyone spoke English..." "Like Star Trek." "Even the pigs?" "(Lutfi) No." "Not the pigs." "Okay." "(Lutfi) The druids also did not know about God." "They practiced a religion know as paganism." "Paganism?" "(Lutfi) Yes." "Instead of praying to God, pagans prayed to things like... twigs..." "Oh, mighty twig, you are powerful and... twig..." "like." "(Lutfi) And pond scum..." "Oh, mighty pond scum, you are powerful and... scummy." "(Lutfi) And they painted with all the colors of the wind." "And so it was that pig boy Maewyn Succat went about serving his master..." "mopping his floors... feeding his pigs... and learning his language." "Pig." "Pig." "(Lutfi) Now, Maewyn was very far from home and very lonely." "He remembered what he had learned in church about God loving him and always being with him." "So Maewyn began praying and talking to God." "He prayed before bedtime..." "He prayed when he worked..." "He prayed when he ate..." "In fact, he prayed all the time!" "Why, in no time at all, he was praying over 100 times a day!" "That's a lot." "But it's cool." "Would you like to pray to me twig?" "No, I'm good." "(Lutfi) Maewyn grew very close to God, and God took care of him and kept him safe." "And one day, after Maewyn had been in Ireland for six years," "God told him it was time to go." "Oh, all right." "Later pigs." "Ahhh, bigidee booo, googledy goo... (Lutfi) Maewyn walked and walked and walked... 200 miles before reaching the sea." "Good day, captain." "My name is Maewyn Succat." "I was captured six years ago by pirates and sold into slavery." "Since then I've been feeding pigs and praying 100 times a day." "Can I have a lift?" "All right, then... [music]" "(Lutfi) The ship sailed for three days before reaching the coast." "They then set off on foot to the nearest town, but their directions were a little off... [music]" "After 28 days of walking their supplies had run out." "The men were starving." "Are you starving?" "I'm starving." "I'm starving, too." "We're all going to die if we don't get someting' to eat." "Say Maewyn..." "You said you pray 100 times a day?" "How about praying for some food?" "!" "(sailors) Yeah, Maewyn." "C'mon!" "Oh, all right... [whispered prayer]" "Amen." "It's miraculously delicious!" "You know, Maewyn, you've really got something going there..." "Thanks a lot." "Don't thank me captain, thank God." "All right then..." "Thank You, God." "Thank You, Lord." "Thank You, Lord." "(Lutfi) Now back home, the years passed by and Maewyn continued to grow closer to God." "And one night, he had a dream." "We beg of you, holy youth, that you should come and work again among us." "(Lutfi) Maewyn dreamed that the people of Ireland were calling him back to come and tell them about God." "Well... but... do you mind if I finish school first..." "I'm doing quite well." "Ahh... no... no..." "take your time." "No rush..." "All right, then." "(Lutfi) So Maewyn got his education and because of his hard work and great love for God, he became a bishop;" "which meant he had a lot of responsibilities in the church and could help many people." "It also meant that he got a new name..." "Patrick." "Saint Patrick?" "(Lutfi) Ah, the saint part comes a little bit later..." "All right, then." "(Lutfi) And Patrick made his way back to Ireland." "Back to the place where he had been taken by pirates and sold as a slave many years before." "Back he went..." "To tell the people about God." "[music]" "So you see, God is like a shamrock... (crowd) Oh great shamrock, you are powerful..." "No, no, no..." "This is simply a metaphor... (crowd) Oh great metaphor..." "No, no, no, no..." "God is like a shamrock, because He is three persons in one." "He is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost." "One God." "Three persons." "[crowd - agreeing]" "So, are there any ways that God is... say... like a... twig?" "No..." "None that come to mind..." "Oh... all right." "Just asking... (Lutfi) And so it was that through Patrick, the people of Ireland turned to God." "And God blessed Patrick as Patrick blessed the people of Ireland." "He lived a good long life among the people he loved so much and had been called to serve." "On March 17 th in the year 460," "Patrick died at the age of 73." "And his name was changed one last time... this time to Saint Patrick." "And that is why every year on March 17 th, people everywhere wear a little green... the color of Ireland... and celebrate Saint Patrick's day." "A great man who loved Ireland and who loved God." "The end." "[music]" "One day while he was waiting for the trolley he had a hat." "My high silk hat." "He wore it high upon his head so proudly." "A beautiful hat." "My high silk hat." "A hat like this just makes him feel so grandly." "Now fancy this and fancy that." "The splendor of his hat in all its majesty." "Like a king in a royal cap." "I feel so swell and handsome in my hat." "I bet that others wish they had in fact a hat as this." "A hat as that." "A hat so fine." "A high silk hat." "Oh, Mr. Art Bigotti, now what do you think of that?" "Now his hat was not all he wore so proudly," "I must in fact share more than that." "For upon his lap there sat a treat so fondly of chocolate this..." "And chocolate that." "Deliciousness that makes me feel so dandy a chocolate bliss..." "A chocolate snack." "Confections such as these are more than candy, somewhat like life, a box of that." "I have my chocolate placed upon my lap." "I feel so good you just cannot top that." "I have my snack." "A chocolate pack." "Of chocolate this, and chocolate that." "Oh, golly Mr. Nezzer, now what do you think of that?" "Now time was passing and the sun grew hotter upon his hat..." "And his chocolate snack." "So beneath his hat he thought and pondered..." "What should I do to save my hat?" "He thought and contemplated as he perspired beneath his hat..." "Upon his lap." "He feared his chocolate treats would soon retire into a pool..." "A chocolate vat." "I won't feel grand if I take off my hat." "The sun's getting hot and my hat just might go flat... my hat, it might go flat... and my sweets will melt like that..." "Oh, hurry Mr. Trolley before my dapperness goes flat." "He decided to forego his looks so dashing to save his hat..." "And little snack." "So he placed the treats upon the seat beside him..." "And put his hat on top of that." "Oh, please don't anybody sit close to me upon my hat." "I ask, if all of you could be so kindly and just stand back away from my snack!" "[squash]" "A great big squash just sat upon my hat." "A great big squash just squished my hat real flat." "He squashed my hat, he made it flat, he squished my snack." "Oh, what of that." "Oh, tell me anybody now what do you think of that?" "A great big squash just sat upon his hat." "A great big enormous squash squished his hat real flat." "He squashed his hat." "He made it flat." "He squished his snack." "Oh, what of that... [bell ringing]" "Oh, golly..." "Uh... what's your name?" "They've never given me a name." "I've been around since show one and I still don't have a name." "[music]" "Now what do you think of that!" "Oh..." "I think that's totally cool." "That's what I think." "What do you think, Edmund?" "Look, Larry..." "this was all very nice, but I still can't see what it has to do with Edmund losing his hamster?" "(Paco) Perhaps Paco the storytelling... (All) No!" "No-no-no!" "Don't worry about it, Paco!" "(Paco) What am I supposed to do with the four donkeys of the apocalypse?" "(Bob) Put 'em back in the barn." "(Paco) Fine." "C'mon boys." ""Hee-haw's" on." "(donkeys) Heee-haaaa..." "Heee-haaaa..." "Heee-haaa..." "Hee-haaaa." "Don't worry Bob, I've got it all under control." "I'm glad someone does." "Let's see if Qwerty has a verse for us today, shall we?" "[computer sounds]" "(Larry) " A happy heart is good medicine and a cheerful mind works healing. "" "Proverbs 17:22a." "Oh...!" "Now I get it!" "You were just trying to cheer Edmund up!" "That's right!" "A cheerful mind works healing!" "That's what I needed when I lost my hamster... something to cheer me up." "And I'm sure these stories did the trick!" "I hope so!" "I'm sure squeaky was a good friend, Edmund... but remember... [wistfully] if you love something set it free, if it comes back..." "it was probably hungry." "Stick with the real proverbs, Larry." "Right." "Well, that's all the time we have for today, kids!" "It's time to close the door on the vault and lock these treasures away..." "At least until the Blu-Ray edition!" "[nervous laugh] Heeeh, heeh, heh..." "Always remember..." "God made you special... (Larry) And He loves you very much!" "(all) Goodbye!" "Subtitles by LeapinLar"
