Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie quotes

Page 2 of 2

Yes! Which way is Tarshish?

Angus

Right this way! You can't miss it!

Oh! Thank you!

God (Pa Grape)
[Jonah walks and headed to Tarshish. Suddenly, God's voice interrupts, which sounds suspiciously like Pa Grape.]

Jonah!

What? Who is it?

God (Pa Grape)

Jonah! Where are you going?

Oh! It's you, Lord. Um, I'm going to... I'm going...

God (Pa Grape)

Jonah!

I'm Sorry! I can't hear you!

God (Pa Grape)

Jonah!

I can't hear you! Lalalalalalala!

God (Pa Grape)

Jonah!

I... CAN'T... HEAR... YOU!

God (Pa Grape)

Jonah!

[Dream transition back to Jonah, tossing in his bunk. The hold of the ship is flooding and water is splashing Jonah's face. Pa Grape is trying to wake him.]

Jonah! Jonah! Jonah!

No! I... I CAN'T HEAR YOU!

Come on! Wake up! We got trouble!

What?! What's happening?!

We're in a storm! Like I've never seen before! If we don't do something quick, we're gonna sink!

We seem to have sprung a leak, traveling buddy!

Huh? Hey! What are you doing here?

Well, yes. But you see, my new friend and I are going to Tarshish to break the back of the camel thieves! Crime-fighting runs very deep in my family!

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?!

What's going on?

I'll tell you what's going on! We're all gonna be fish food if I don't get some help!

Well, what can we do?!

Oh! Get up and pray to your god! Maybe he'll have mercy on us and spare our lives! Hmm... Oy! Somebody up there must be really upset with somebody down here! Wait a minute! That's it! ALRIGHT YOU TWO, FOLLOW ME!

Junior

What is that? What's compassion?

Oh! That's a hard question.

Larry

Mmmm Hmmm!

Well, Compassion is when ya see that someone needs help, and ya wanna help them!

Huh?! I thought for sure...

Alright! I admit it! It's my fault! All my fault! I'm the one to blame!

But, I... The worm!

I am a Hebrew, and I worship the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the land, and I'm running away from Him! He told me to go to Nineveh, but I didn't listen! You know, I don't like those people.

Oh! Fish Slappers.

Yes! And so I ran! I ran, and I ended up here, and now everyone's in terrible danger all because of me! I'm afraid the only thing left is to be thrown into the sea!

Larry

Awww! You don't have to do that. We gotta plank. You can just walk off!

Yes, thank you. You're too kind.

So from inside the whale, Jonah prayed and asked God to forgive him for not obeying. He told God that if he got another chance, he would go to Nineveh, even though he didn't like those people very much.

Bob

So did he get another chance?

Shouldn't you be lookin' our for yer tow truck?

Bob

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That can wait. Did Jonah get another chance?

Well, God saw that Jonah needed help, and he wanted to help him.

Junior

That's compassion!

Bob

But did he give him a second chance even though he didn't deserve it? You know, mercy?

After three days, Jonah noticed something strange happening.

Let's do another Twippo song!

Annie

I love Twippo.

Junior

Me too!

Laura

But I'm the one who gets to meet him because I won the Twippo sweepstakes.

Junior

You don't have to rub it in.

It's great that you won the contest, Laura. But let's try not to brag about it. Nice one with the lights, Bob.

Bob

My pleasure, for the next song maybe I can drive into the river!

All

Yeah! Drive into the river, Bob! Oh, drive into the river, Bob!

Bob

Or maybe you could help me with the map!

Oh! I'm sorry.

Laura

Is there anything you want me to tell Twippo, when I meet him?

Laura!

Bob

Ow!

Laura

My ticket!!

Mike: Aah! Quick get it!

Bob

The map!

Sorry!

Bob

Aah!

Laura

My ticket!
[The ticket flies away.]

Tape

You are powerful and attractive.

What? Who's there?

Tape

You do not run from your problems, but confront them face to face.

Ah! The bag! It speaks!

Ow! What did you do that for?

Mr. Twisty? Who's there? Show yourself!

[Worm crawls up on barrel or something. He is holding headphones, which he places back in the bag of leaves. Jonah has never seen a worm exactly like this one.]

Hello!

What are you?

Who, me? Oh, my name is Khalil! I'm caterpillar! Well, that's only half true. My mother was a caterpillar. My father was a worm. But I'm okay with that now.

Khalil?

Khalil. You've got to get your gut into it! I bet you're wondering why I'm here.

Aaah! you tidy up around the ship?

Oh, no - I do not work on the ship. I am a small business operator! A traveling salesman! I sell Persian rugs door to door! See?

Oh, lovely. A...

By the way, do you know where this ship is going?

Yes, Tarshish.

Tarshish! [gasps] What a trip! You know, that may be just what I need! The Persian rug business has not been going very well around here. But I still have a positive mental attitude, because of my motivational tapes!

Tape

You are a skilled metalworker.

I am a skilled metalworker! Oh! I did not know that!

Twippo

Why that was a very merciful thing to do! Tell you what, I'll give you all a ride to the concert, and I'll make sure you all have backstage passes!

All
[celebration]

Horray!

Twippo

Speaking of mercy, have any of you heard the story of a man named Jonah?

All

Yes.

Twippo

Oh! Well, uh... Would you like to hear a song about it?

Percy

Is it like the bald bunny song?

Twippo

Ah! Not really. it's more of a big musical number.

Dad

Perfect!

[The scene is quite dark, with JONAH forlornly sitting on a barrel or some other indigestible object inside the whale. After a moment, the bowling ball rolls up next to him.]

Oh, look... a bowling ball. If I could only find some pins.

You found better than that, travelling buddy! It's me!

Oh, my.

So forget about Tarshish! All we need to do is get this whale to swim to Nineveh! You give the message, I sell the plush toys, we'll be right back on track!

Carlyle, please don't speak to me. I'm having a rather bad day.

Well you don't need to be so down about it - Mr. Grumpypants!

Look around you! We're inside a whale! We're going to be digested! Do you know what that means?!

Of course I do! Digestion runs very deep in my family. I'm just trying to have a positive outlook, you know! You know the difference between you and me is that you see the whale as half empty, but I see the whale as half full!

I don't know what that means.

Neither do I.

[Jonah turns away and sits down forlornly.]

Oh! I might as well face it. God gave me a job to do and I disobeyed him. I ran the other way! I've done something terrible and now I'm getting what I deserve. Oh... I'm going to die here in this whale.
