Pa Grape: Huh?! I thought for sure...
Jonah: Alright! I admit it! It's my fault! All my fault! I'm the one to blame!
Pa Grape: But, I... The worm!
Jonah: 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.
Mr. Lunt: Oh! Fish Slappers.
Jonah: 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!
Jonah: Yes, thank you. You're too kind.

Pa Grape: 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?
Pa Grape: Shouldn't you be lookin' our for yer tow truck?
Bob: Yeah, yeah, yeah. That can wait. Did Jonah get another chance?
Pa Grape: 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?
Pa Grape: After three days, Jonah noticed something strange happening.

Tape: You are powerful and attractive.
Jonah: What? Who's there?
Tape: You do not run from your problems, but confront them face to face.
Jonah: Ah! The bag! It speaks!
Khalil: Ow! What did you do that for?
Jonah: 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.]
Khalil: Hello!
Jonah: What are you?
Khalil: 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.
Jonah: Khalil?
Khalil: Khalil. You've got to get your gut into it! I bet you're wondering why I'm here.
Jonah: Aaah! you tidy up around the ship?
Khalil: 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?
Jonah: Oh, lovely. A...
Khalil: By the way, do you know where this ship is going?
Jonah: Yes, Tarshish.
Khalil: 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.
Khalil: I am a skilled metalworker! Oh! I did not know that!
Jonah: What? Who's there?
Tape: You do not run from your problems, but confront them face to face.

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.]
Jonah: Oh, look... a bowling ball. If I could only find some pins.
Khalil: You found better than that, travelling buddy! It's me!
Jonah: Oh, my.
Khalil: 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!
Jonah: Carlyle, please don't speak to me. I'm having a rather bad day.
Khalil: Well you don't need to be so down about it - Mr. Grumpypants!
Jonah: Look around you! We're inside a whale! We're going to be digested! Do you know what that means?!
Khalil: 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!
Jonah: I don't know what that means.
Khalil: Neither do I.
[Jonah turns away and sits down forlornly.]
Jonah: 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.
