VeggieTales: Are You My Neighbor? Page #2

Season #1 Episode #3

---

Larry:
Please pardon my manners - I don't mean to bug you, I see that you're busy, but being inverted has made me quite dizzy.

Bob:
(voice over) The two other flibbians paused for a while, they looked at each other, then said, with a smile.

Mayor and Doctor: (singing) We're busy, busy, dreadfully busy, You've no idea what we have to do. Busy, busy, shockingly busy, Much, much too busy for you! We're busy, busy, frightfully busy, More than a bumblebee, more than an ant! Busy, busy, horribly busy, We'd like to help but we can't!

Mayor:
Ta-ta!

Bob:
(voice over) Oh, it was just dreadful, how could they desert their poor Flibbian friend with his head in the dirt?

Larry:
That's it then, I'm finished, I'll die here down under. If they would not help, then who would?

Bob:
(voice over) He wondered. But wait, someone else on the road overhead. Would they help our friend, beaten up, left for dead? Oh look, on his head, not a shoe, but a pot! Why this little guy was from Jibber-de-lot. Would he help a Flibbian? Certainly not! The boy with a pot saw our friend with the shoe.

Junior:
Oh look!

Bob:
(voice over) He exclaimed.

Junior:
He's from Flibber-o-Loo. Why they think we're garbage, they pelt us with shoes. Why should I care if he's beaten and bruised? But out here in the wild, his chances are slim. If I was in need, would I want help from him?

Bob:
(voice over) He looked at our friend, and he looked at the shoe, and then in his heart, he knew what to do.

Junior:
He may be Flibbian, that's plain to see. But God made him special, just like he made me.

Bob:
(voice over) So he got him unstuck and he picked up his shoe and together they walked back to Flibber-O-Loo. Out of the valley, and back into town, where he stayed by his side will the doctor was found.

Doctor:
Oh my!

Bob:
(voice over) Said the doctor.

Doctor:
He's wearing a pot! The little one there is from Jibber-de-Lot! You saved this fellow - you pulled him through it? I don't understand - tell me - why did you do it?

Junior:
(sings) He had a shoe and I have a pot, but when we look deeper there's more that we've got. God made us special and now I can see, if you're special to Him then you're special to me!

Love your neighbor, when someone helps you then you'll understand when you love your neighbor, then loving means lending a hand.

All:
(singing) If you see someone who's hurt or in need, Maybe it's time to perform a good deed. And when you've finished you'll find that it's true - when you make them feel better you'll feel better too.

Junior:
Here, let me help you.

Larry:
Thank you.

Larry and Junior: (singing) Oh, love your neighbor, when someone helps you then you'll understand when you love your neighbor, then loving means lending a hand.

Bob:
(voice over) So the boy with the pot gave the doctor some money, to pay for the cucumber's bill. And the Mayor called out with his eyes moist and runny.

Mayor:
I'm touched by his act of good will. If this little guy can take care of his brother, when he lives in one town and he in the other, well why can't we all try to help one another and love will surround our fair hill!

Bob:
(voice over) Now if you visit the mountains of fibble, you won't see a shoe - or a pot. Instead, they throw flowers and candy to nibble - I bet that you'd like it a lot!

(Silly Song:
The Hairbrush Song)

(camera fades to The Gourds Must Be Crazy)

Dad:
(offscreen) So is there anyone else you would like to invite to your birthday party?

Junior:
(offscreen) Um... Let's see... Don't forget Louie! Oh, and Marsha! (camera fades to Junior's bedroom) I think that's it.

Dad:
Are you forgetting anyone else?

Junior:
Nope. I don't think so.

Dad:
What about Fernando? I bet he'd like to come.

Junior:
(disappointed) No, not Fernando.

Dad:
Why not?

Junior:
Well, he just moved here. So I don't know him very well. Besides, he talks kind of funny.

Dad:
Now, Junior, he don't talk funny. He just talks different. His family's from another country.

Junior:
Yeah, I know. It still sounds funny.

Dad:
You know, Junior, God wants us to love everybody, not just the people that are like us. So we need to accept others just the way they are. Besides, we can learn a lot from people who are different from us.

Junior:
(tucks into his bed) Yeah, I suppose.

Dad:
I'll tell you what - You think about it and in the morning, we'll talk some more, okay?

Junior:
Okay.

Dad:
Good night, Junior.

Junior:
Good night, Dad.

(Junior's window opens with a flash of light. A spaceship comes in and from the spaceship reveals Bob and Larry)

Junior:
Aah! Who are you?

Bob:
I'm Bob. I'm a tomato and I need your help!

Junior:
(directly at the camera) Whoa, deju vu. (at Larry, noticing the chocolate bar stuck on him) Um... What's he got on his space helmet?

Bob:
Huh? What do you mean? Larry!

Larry:
What?

Bob:
How many times have I told you not to eat while wearing your helmet?

Larry:
Oh. Sorry. (Tries shaking it off, tries biting it off, then nudges it off)

Bob:
Ahem... We need your help, Junior! Our starship, the USS applepies, is in great danger!

Junior:
Oh, really? Tell me more!

Bob:
In just eight minutes, the ship and its crew will be smashed to bits by a giant meteor!

Junior:
Good heavens! Well, couldn't you just move the ship out of the way?

Bob:
That's just it. The applepies is complete without power! Dead in the water! She can't budge an inch!

Larry:
She's stuck.

Junior:
Oh, dear. Well, gee, how can I help?

Bob:
Didn't you minor in aero-space technology at the happy tots preschool?

Junior:
Why, yes! Yes I did!

Larry:
What did you major in?

Bob:
That's not important now.

Junior:
Play-doh.

Larry:
(gasps) Me too!

Bob:
No time for chit-chat! Junior, only you can save the applepies! Lt. Larry, the shrinker beam!

Larry:
Aye-aye, captain Bob!

(The spaceship brings Bob, Larry and Junior in and takes off in outer space)
