[1993-1997 version]
Okay, Larry. It's time for the theme song.
Uh. Yeah, Bob. What do I do?
Hmm, okay. How about this? You play the guitar.
Bob, I don't have any hands.
Oh, right. Okay, okay, uh, will you play this?
I don't want to play that. It'll look silly!
Oh, come on! It'll be fun!
Nope, not gonna do it.
It's for the kids.
Oh, okay. But they better not laugh.
Okay. It's time now. You better go on out there.
[1998-2009 version]
Okay, Larry. It's time for the theme song.
Uh. Yeah, Bob. What do I do?
Hmm, let's see. I know! You play the guitar.
Bob, I don't have any hands.
Oh, you're right. Okay, you play this.
I don't want to play that. It'll look silly!
Oh, come on! It'll be fun!
Nope, not gonna do it.
It's for the kids.
Oh, okay. But they better not laugh.
All right, you better get on out there.

[first lines; Bob and Larry are on the countertops]
Hi, kids, and welcome to VeggieTales. I'm Bob the Tomato.
And I'm Larry the Cucumber.
And we're here to answer your questions.
That's right.
[hops to the letter] Now today, we got a letter from Lucy Anderson of Phoenix, Arizona, who writes:
[offscreen] "Dear Bob and Larry, I am six years old. Sometimes, I think that there are monsters in my closet. That makes me real scared. Can you help me?"
Oooh. I remember once I thought there were monsters in my closet.
Yeah? Well, what happened, Larry?
Well, it turned out that they weren't really monsters at all. Just my fluffy bunny slippers! And they're not so scary... just kind of squishy.
Oh I see. Well Lucy Anderson, first check to see if it's just your slippers, and then watch this story about when Junior Asparagus got a little bit scared.
It can't be done. I don't think you can do it.
Well then, stand back and behold as I throw this switch! It's alive! Alive! [laughs in an evil manner] Stand!
Oh my goodness! Look how big it is!
Speak!
[moans]
Walk to me! No! This way!
Oh, look at it going!
Frankencelery, where are you going? Come back here! No, don't go near the door! [Frankencelery walks out the door and a scream is heard] Frankencelery, come back! Stay away from those villagers!
Junior! It's time for bed!
Just four more minutes.
That's what you said four minutes ago. Let's skedaddle up those stairs. Your father will be up in a minute to tuck you in. Besides, I think this show might be a little too scary for you.
[Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber crash through Junior's ceiling.]
Aah! Who are you?
I'm Bob. I'm a tomato, and I'm here to help you.
[Junior's toy chest starts rattling]
There's something in my toy chest! It's a- It's a- [Larry pops out with a bonnet on his head] ... baby pickle?
It's a cucumber.
Look up at that window. What do you see?
My curtains.
No! Out the window, up in the sky.
I see lots of stars.
God made all those stars out of nothing, he just went, [razzes], and there they were.
[while Daniel is praying] And so the next day, just like every other day, Daniel prayed and thanked God for the sunshine and for all his friends. He also thanked God for giving him the courage to do what was right, even when he knew it could get him in trouble.
[opens one eye] Did you say "trouble"?
[The Scallions open the door and catch Daniel in the act.]
Ah-ha!
[The Scallions approach Daniel.]
Daniel, because you violated Section 4219 2R9-4000 6 dot 1 dash 7, B, of the code of Babylon, forbidding prayer to anyone but King Darius- you are hereby sentenced to be consumed by the lions. Goodbye!
Hey, didn't get I get a phone [The Scallions tosses him in] caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaall?!
[Daniel lands on the ground with a thud. He gets up dizzily. The scallion wisemen call down to him.]
Hey, Daniel! We know you're gonna have fun down there! We're not "lion"!
Uh, yeah, you better be "lion" down, because those lions are gonna... lie... on you!
[to Scallion #3] Mine was funny, yours was... goofy. Lions are gonna lie on him? They're gonna EAT him! They're not gonna LIE on him!
Well, maybe they'll lie on him first, and then eat him... or maybe one will lie on him while the others eat him... or maybe they'll take turns between lying and eating-
Yeah, you think the lions are gonna cooperate and say "Hey, I'll eat him, you lie on him"? Come on, we're the ones who are lyin', not the lions. [seals the den up]
[singing in fear] Oh no, what am I gonna do? It looks like I'm gonna end up as lion stew!
[last lines of "Daniel and the Lion's Den"]
I've got it, a new law! From this day forth, everyone will pray only to Daniel's God, no more of this silly praying to me business. But who's idea was that anyway? Oh, yes, I remember.
[whispers to Scallion #2] I hear they're looking for wisemen down in Egypt. Been fun, got to go now!
Yeah, see ya! [The Scallions runs off]
[angrily; he and Daniel start chasing The Scallions] Where do you think you're going?! Come back here, you scoundrels! You scallywags! Not so fast! Stop! I'm the King, you must stop now! Come back here! Stop it!
Hey guys, come back! There's some pizza left!
[QWERTY mistakenly pulls up the meatloaf recipe]
"1 pound ground beef, 3 slices of-" QWERTY, this is a recipe for a meatloaf! That's not a verse! [QWERTY frowns] Sorry about that.
God made you special, and He loves you very much. [closing line of most episodes]
[first lines; Bob and Larry are on the countertops]
Hey, kids. Welcome to VeggieTales. I'm Bob the Tomato.
And I'm Larry the Cucumber.
And we're here to answer your questions.
Yep.
Now, Larry.
Yeah, Bob?
The other day, I was walking home from my bowling league, when I bumped into Marco, one of our TV friends.
Oh. That... That's great!
Mmm-hmm. Now Marco has a question for us... He said that when his baby sister does something that makes him mad & then she said she's sorry, Marco's mom says he need to forgive her. Why does he have to forgive?
Oh, that's a good question. Hmmm... [thinks for a little bit] Oh, I know! I'll tell Marco the story of "The Grapes of Wrath"!
Oh, that's a classic. [to the viewers] This will be good.
Once upon a time, there were some very cranky grapes.
Umm, [turns to Larry] are you sure that's how "The Grapes of Wrath" goes?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, okay.
Uh, Bob?
W-yeah, Larry?
Try not to interrupt.
Oh, sorry.
Once upon a time, there were some very cranky grapes.
