[[File:Bobthetomato1.jpg|thumb|right|Robert "Bob" T. Tomato... about to do something scary!!]]
 
I.... Reallyreally don't know what to say anymore. There really hasn't been much out of me over the past three days because that horrible experience. Has anyone heard of Veggietales?  I've been a big fan of it ever since I got my first DVD which was Rack, Shack, and Benny.The show was really good in my eyes because of the characters, stories, morals, and humor. However I have outgrown the show because I've gotten older and I'm glad I did because there's these new redesigns and this spin off called Veggietales "In The House" which to me is kinda a guilty pleasure. I still have a bunch of DVDs and even some old VHS tapes.
 
I've watched all of them except one. It's name was Where's God When I'm S-Scared?
 
I've actually had it before but after got it and was about to watch it I couldn't find it. So iI decided to go to my old buddy Amazon to look for not a rerelease, not a remaster, but the original. I searched for it but couldn't find a copy until I got to the bottom of the results.
 
The title of the item said:
Line 15:
About a week later my Aunt and Uncle (Who i was living with at the time) were going on a trip.
 
They said if iI ever needed them to call them. At least I can watch the tape without being disturbed because my sister is also gone at a friends house as well.
 
Right after they left the mailman came and put something in the mailbox, most likely a package from the yellow wrapping i could see around it. So after he left iI checked the mailbox and sure enough it was my package. I grabbed it went into the house into my room,  shut the door behind me and started opening it up.
 
After I opened it up I started to look at the tapes condition because you know Amazon you could get something that looks brand new on the picture of the item, but then you wind up getting a sand filled Gamecube. The Tapes box art looked like it was copied off of Google Images and the actual tape didn't have a label. "Geez Amazon, thank you very much" I said in kinda of a sarcastic way even though I was really happy to get the tape.
Line 39:
But after a little complaining the show seemed to restart because it showed the intro again.
 
I was a little curious because the show normally doesn't restart unless its over and you hear the tape rewinding inside the VCR, but it didn't, and I didn't hear the tape rewind inside. When the actual show started it showed Bob and Larry standing on the counter top as usual,but for some reason the atmosphere felt........ different, almost depressing.
 
I mean Bob and Larry were smiling and the background was bright and colorful, but for some reason it felt depressing. Everything was about normal until they started reading the letter.
Line 67:
With Junior saying "Just four more minutes" but he decides to turn off the television
 
and go to his room. He hopped up the stairs and into his room. However he is extremely scared, even more then he was when watching the TV show. He thought "Yeesh, that show is scary but it isn't real........ is it? Junior goes to sleep and we get treated to his dreams/nightmares there was a lot of flashing colors and shapes with Junior in the dream world/just dream. After about 30 seconds I heard a loud booming voice that sounded like my TV speakers were at 100 volume/percent. However my volume was turned down to 10 volume/percent. The voice said "YOU ARE WEAK..... HUMBLE....... DISGRACEFUL........ NO ONE!!!!!". This part shocked me the most, I was jumpscared by the monster that Junior watched on the TV except it looked a lot more............. demented.
 
Junior woke up with not a scream, not a cry, but instead a shocked face.
Line 81:
After his mom said that the beeper (the thing that tells you if the heart is still beating
 
in beeps) went flat. Archie then said to them "I'm sorry everyone but....... Junior is....... dead". It was really sad, I felt like I was going to cry because Junior was one of my favorite characters in the show.
 
It cuts to a picture of the Asparagus family with Mom Asparagus crying in the background.
 
While mixed in with the words "He's gone...... I can't bring him back I can't live like this anymore!". Then we see Mom Asparagus in the kitchen, reaching in a medicine cabinet,
 
and pulling a bottle of pills. She finishes with following words "When you lose someone,you will always feel pain, until you can't feel at all". She opens up the bottle, pours all the pills in her mouth, then passes out. The Final image is an image of the Asparagus Family.
Line 91:
It cuts back to the counter top, where Bob and Larry are even sadder from when they read the letter then Bob said in a sad voice "It's time to talk to QWERTY about what we.. learned today". QWERTY didn't work though and Bob was getting angry at QWERTY for not working. He starts bouncing off of QWERTY like a ball getting more angry every time.
 
Larry even told Bob to stop or he might get hurt Bob charged at the computer and when he hit it he splattered into pieces of tomato juice and tomato chunks. Larry ran off crying he then went to the edge of the counter top and said to the audience while staring at the camera in a sad voice "Remember kids, God made you special and he loves you very much. Goodbye" Larry then jump off the counter and when he hits the floor, he smashes into pieces then the episode ended with no credits just.... nothing.
 
This was a very shocking experience for me I didn't know who made the episode I don't even know if I was dreaming or not.I couldn't sleep for two days I kept on getting nightmares about the following episode.
 
The Next day I decided to email Big Idea (The company that makes Veggietales) about this strange and disturbing episode. I didn't get a response until two weeks later and the      e-mail said

I took there word for it and threw the tape, along with my Veggietales DVD's,VHS Tapes, and even my Bob and Larry plushies  that I've had since I was little and threw them in the garbage.
Line 121 ⟶ 123:
I looked down into the rocky floor at the bottom of the canyon.
 
Remember, God Made You Special...... and He Loves You Very Much.
