Wait a minute. This is a job for...

Captain Vegetable! Ha ha ha ha!

Elmo: Wow! Captain Vegetable?

John: Yes, I am a cornucopia of carrots, a proponent of peas, an advocate of asparagus, sorry, a backer of broccoli, and a supporter of squash, because I simply...

Elmo: Wow, can you say that three times?

John: Sure. It's a cornucopia of... oh, you!

It is I, Captain Vegetable, with my carrot and my celery. Eating crunchy vegetables is good for me. And they're good for you, so eat them too, to keep so strong your whole life long. Eat celery and carrots by the bunch. Three cheers for the mighty vegetable! Crunch, crunch, crunch!

So, Emo, I...

Elmo: Elmo!

John: Whatever. I want you to keep crunch, crunch, crunching this carrot.

Elmo: Okay.

Elmo: Elmo!

John: Whatever.

What do you eat, man? I need you to come and help me serve some vegetables. The world needs its beta-carotene.

Elmo: Okay.

John: All right.

Sandy: My name is Sandy. I love candy. I eat candy whenever I can. If it's candy, give me some candy. It's so good and sweet, the perfect treat. It's such a thrill to eat my fill and gobble till there's nothing on the plate. Candy is great! But wait!
