Dialogue[edit]
- 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 crying out in fear ) as the van swerves all around the road. Meanwhile, in the forest, a mother porcupine is walking with her two babies. Cuts back to the van, which is still driving like crazy.)
- Bob: A porcupine!
- Mike: Tree! [Bob steers right in a tree] Cabin! [Bob steers left towards a clothesline] Underwear!
- Bob: (chuckles) Well, I'm glad that's over. A ( 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]
- 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, 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.
- [Jonah, still dreaming, is tossing in his bunk. Pa Grape calls at him off-screen]
- Pa Grape: Jonah! Jonah! Jonah!
- Jonah: No! I... I can't hear you!
- Pa Grape: Come on, wake up! We've got trouble!
- Jonah: 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: 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: 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!
- Bob: [confused] Wait a minute. It's over?!
- Pa Grape: Yup.
- Bob: That's how it ends?
- Pa Grape: Yup.
- Junior: But what did Jonah learn?
- Mr. Lunt: The question, my friends, is not "what did Jonah learn". The question is — what did you learn?
