by Ek01

In the last chapter of the “American Adventure” series, the VeggieTales cast heads for the bright lights of Hollywood, California to produce and star in their next epic feature. However, a washed-up former child actor attempts to murder Bob and Larry, leaving only the kids to stop him.

1. Prologue

The kids couldn't sleep on the plane.

The veggies were headed to California to film their newest film—The Larryboy Movie II, with the help of a local film studio.

"WE'RE FAMOUS, BROSEPH!" Libby exclaimed, gripping Junior.

"Uh, I think we already are famous." Junior replied. "We've made tons of movies, remember?"

"Yeah, but now we're gonna be even MORE famous!" Libby smiled. "I can't WAIIT!!"

"I'm gonna get SO many autographs!" Laura smiled.

"Me too!" Annie hugged the carrot.

"I wanna check out the stars homes!" Percy smiled. "AND MEET EM'!"

"Well, once we get to LA," Larry pulled up his cell phone, stopping on a particular video. "I'm really hoping I'll get to meet M. J. Jenkins—my favorite actor from this sitcom I loved in my childhood—check it out!"

"Aw, That Darn Kid!" An asparagus woman exclaims, entering a small, orange-colored family living room. "Did you flood the bathroom again, Jimmy?!!"

At that moment, the door to the upstairs bathroom SLAMS open, an enormous torrent of water floods the stairs, and into the living room. A small asparagus child wearing swim trunks and goggles stands up, laughing.

"...WHO, ME?!!" He exclaims in an obnoxious, giggly voice.

(*audience laugh track*)

"BAAAAAHAHAHAAAAAAH!!" Larry exclaimed. "THAT'S HIS CATCHPHRASE!! ISN'T IT GREAT?!"

"Dear, can't your 1974 childhood nostalgia wait til' tomorrow?" Petunia asked. "I'm trying to sleep."

"Sorry, sweetie.." Larry replied and kissed Petunia.

"HOW DID I NOT WATCH THIS SHOW?!" Percy exclaimed. "That kid's a RIOT!"

"Yeah..." Junior replied. "I dunno, but I think there's something off about that guy."

"No way! M. J. isn't weird—well, the guy's like, 38 now and he's been in hiding ever since." Larry reasoned. "But that does not a weirdo make."

"I wouldn't be so sure about that Larry." Junior yawned, leaning back.

(*"Please fasten your seatbelts, we will soon be landing in Los Angeles International Airport momentarily*") Came a female voice over the intercom.
