Dialogue

Laura: My ticket!
(The ticket lands on the side of the road. Cuts back to the veggies in the van. An annoyed Bob tries to get Mike out of his way.)
Bob: Do you mind?!
Mike: (his guitar is stuck in the steering wheel) I'm stuck! (Mike tries to pull the guitar out the steering wheel, but accidentally rips the wheel off the dashboard. Bob gasps in horror. Mike frantically shakes his guitar to try to get the wheel off of his guitar. The veggies all cry out in fear as the van swerves all around the road. Meanwhile, in the forest, a mother porcupine is walking with her two babies. Cut back to the van, which is still driving like crazy.)

Bob: A porcupine!

Mike: Tree! [Bob steers right towards a cabin] Cabin! [Bob steers left towards a clothesline] Underwear!
Bob: (chuckles) Well, I'm glad that's over. [line snaps. Bob turns to Mike] Did you say something? [Mike shakes his head. Another line snaps] Oh…
Mike: Dear! [Three more lines snap and the van continues down the hill towards the river and Veggies screams and bumped with the tree stump and two airbags]
Bob: Am I in heaven?
Mike: (sniffs) It smells like… Wisconsin.
(Everyone jumps out of the car)
Bob: Well, nobody got hurt. [A quill comes out of nowhere and hits Bob in the behind] Ahh!
(The porcupines look down happily.)
Mike: Wow! What a shot! [Bob groans]
Junior: Hey, [Long pause; ?] what's that? (They all notice a restaurant that read SEAFOOD with the letter D light out.)
All: Ooh.
Annie: What's seafoo?
Percy Pea: Maybe it’s like Tofu.
Mike: Only saltier.
(The D lights up.)
All: (O.S.) Ahh.

Laura: Hmph! I'm coming with you, Mr. Bob.

[Jonah, still dreamingly, is tossingly in his bunk. Pa Grape calls at him off-screen]
Pa Grape: Jonah! Jonah! Jonah!
Jonah (Archibald Asparagus): No! I… I can't hear you!
Pa Grape: Come on, wake up! We've got trouble!
Jonah (Archibald Asparagus): What? What's happening?
Pa Grape: We're in a storm! Like I've never seen before! If we don't do something quick, we're gonna sink!
Khalil: We seem to have sprung a leak, traveling buddy!
Pa Grape: Huh? Hey! What are you doing here?! Didn't I tell you to get off my ship, you lousy leaf-eater?
Khalil: Well, yes. But you see, my new friend and I are going to Tarshish to break the back of the camel thieves! [Pa Grape turns to Jonah, who rolls his eyes] Crime-fighting runs very deep in my family.
Pa Grape: Why, if it wasn't for this storm, I'd make you walk the plank. And you! How can you sleep at a time like this?!
Jonah (Archibald Asparagus): What's going on?!
Pa Grape: I'll tell you what's going on! We're all gonna be fish food if I don't get some help!
Jonah (Archibald Asparagus): Well, what can we do?
Pa Grape: Oh! Get up and pray to your God! Maybe He'll have mercy on us and spare our lives! [falls over] Oy! Somebody up there must be really upset with somebody down here! Wait a minute. That's it! All right you two, follow me!?

Pa Sour Grape: [back in the present day; to everyone] The end. [closes the divider]
Dakota Richards (into the home): I'm very disappointed in you, Percy, Annie, Junior and Laura.
Bob the Tomato: [confused; to Mike] Wait a minute. It's over?
Pa Sour Grape: Yep.
Bob the Tomato: That's how it ends?
Pa Sour Grape: Yup.
Junior Asparagus: But what did Jonah learn?
Mr. Lunt: The question, my friends, is not "what did Jonah learn". The question is — what did you learn?
