VeggieTales: Larry-Boy! and the Fib from Outer Space! Page #4

Season #1 Episode #8

---

(the computer screen boots up)

Alfred:
(screaming) Boot, you transistorized tormentor! Boot!!

Larry-Boy:
Goodbye, Bumblyburg!

(Alfred discovers Junior on his computer)

Alfred:
It's Junior! It's Junior! Junior can stop the lie!!!

(As Fib chews on Larry-Boy, Junior tells the truth)

Junior:
I did it!

All Gasps:

Fib:
Hmm?

Junior:
I broke the plate!

(Fib spits out Larry-Boy)

Junior:
I said Laura broke the plate, and that was a lie! I said Lenny broke the plate, and that was a lie, too!

(As Junior is telling the truth, the fib is shrinking)

Junior:
It was me. I'm the one who did it. It was all my fault!

(The fib turns into nothingness)

Junior:
Now, how do I get down from here?

Larry-Boy:
There's a problem I know I can handle!

(Junior comes down to his dad, with Larry-Boy's plunger holding him)

Junior:
Dad, I'm really sorry about your plate.

Dad Asparagus:
Oh, Junior. I'm sure it was an accident. I just wish you would have told me right away.

Junior:
I thought you'd be really mad at me.

Dad Asparagus:
Junior, you're much more important to me than any old bowling plate!

Junior:
I guess I should be punished. Huh?

Mom Asparagus:
I think what you've been through today was punishment enough. What do you think, Dad?

Dad Asparagus:
I think you're right. Let's just make sure that from now on we get the true story, the first time.

Scooter:
Oh! Doesn't it just warm your heart? And it's all because of one man, one plunger-headed hero always ready when Bumblyburg needs him. Larry-Boy? Hup. There he goes again.

(Shows Larry-Boy watching over Bumblyburg and then a red fib falls in the neighborhood. And this time, it is red)

Bob:
Wow, that was really something. You did a great job, Larry... Boy.

Larry-Boy:
Thank you, Bob. Um, we need to hurry this along. I have a meeting with the action figure people in ten minutes.

Bob:
Action figures?

Larry-Boy:
Yes, Bob. Larry-Boy mania is sweeping the nation. If you're not on board, you're gonna miss the train.

Bob:
I, uh, I had no idea.

Larry-Boy:
Now you do.

Bob:
Yes, well. We're over here by Qwerty to talk about what we learned today.

Qwerty:
And so what we have learned applies to our lives today and God has a lot to say in His book.

Larry-Boy:
I like that song. Let it play.

Qwerty:
You see, we know that God's word is for everyone and now that our song is done, we'll take a look.

Bob:
Well, Junior thought the best way to get out of trouble was by telling a lie.

Larry-Boy:
Yep, but to cover up for the first lie. He really had to tell more and more lies until finally he was trapped a slave to his lies.

Bob:
That's right. He thought a lie would set him free. But in the end, the only way for him to get free was by telling the truth. Let's see if Qwerty has a verse for us. "The truth will set you free." John 8:32b. You see, Ezzio, the only way for us to really be free is by doing what God wants us to do. And God wants us to always tell the truth. I'm not saying that you won't get punished for what did. But as Junior learned, facing your parents can be a lot less painful than getting stuck in a big lie.

Larry-Boy:
Oh, is that right. Well, we gotta clear the stage now, Bob. It's time for the world premiere my new music video.

Bob:
Your what? You're joking, right? He's not joking. Larry, we gotta talk.

(The Larry-Boy music video plays)
