Transcript:
(The story begins at an ice cream parlor that's modeled after "Nighthawks". It's a dark rainy night. Inside, we see Larry the Cucumber as an ice cream man cleaning plates behind the counter. We also see a sleeping Tigger sidding next to a large glass window, alone and fidgeting. There're fourteen almost empty sundae glasses on his table: two pink and twelve green. Tigger appears to be having a nightmare of some kind. We fade into his dream.)

Archibald Asparagus: Ex-ex-ex-excuse me, I have an announcement. ...and as a result of the disastrous outcome of the previous Silly Song...

Larry the Cucumber: Boy is riding with cebu... (Speaking) Um... No wait. No wait.

Archibald: Th-th-this is quite disappointing...disappointing...disappointing...

(We fade back to Tigger, still dreaming...)

Tigger: No. Don't!

(...then back to his nightmare...)

Archibald: Management has decided-decided-decided...that other performers...performers...

Mr. Lunt: Cause you're his cheeseburger

His precious cheeseburger...

Archibald: Silly Songs is cancelled... Silly Songs is cancelled-is cancelled until further notice. ...cancelled... Silly Songs is cancelled...cancelled...cancelled...cancelled...

(...and back to Tigger, who is fidgeting more vigorously.)

Tigger: Jibee! Jibee! Jibee! Nnnnn! Nnnnnn! No wait! Nnnnnn! Jibee! Jibee!

(Larry begins to take notice of Tigger's spastic squeaking and fidgeting.)

Tigger: Nnnnnnn! Cebu! Nnnnn!

Larry: Hey.

Tigger: Jibee!

Larry: Hey-hey, sir. You okay?

Tigger: Jibee! Nnnnnn! Nnnn! Jibee!

Larry: Sir! Wake up, Sir! Sir?!

(The title "Silly Sing-Along 2: The End of Silliness? (Remastered)" comes up as Larry rushes over to see if Tigger's okay.)

(The VeggieTales Theme Song begins)

(We fade back to Tigger and Larry. Tigger has an ice pack on his head. He also has a cup of coffee in front of him.)

Larry: You had me worried there for a while, buddy. Are you okay?

Tigger: (Sniffs) Yeah. I'm okay.

Larry: Well...can I getcha anything? A push-up?

(Tigger shakes his head.)

Larry: Waffle cone?

(Tigger shakes his head again.)

Larry: Cup full of sprinkles?

Tigger: No. I don't need anything.

Larry: You, uh...wanna talk about it?

(Tigger looks up then looks over at a jukebox with a computer screen.)

Tigger: Does that thing work?

Larry: Mm-hmm.

Tigger: G-7.

Larry: Huh?

Tigger: G-7. Press G-7!

(Larry walks over to the jukebox.)

Tigger: It all started a while back when I was singing this song and... Well...I don't know! It just...kinda got messed up again!

(Larry presses G-7 and on comes "The Song of the Cebu". Once the song is done, Larry laughs but stops when he sees Tigger's angry face. Tigger's not wearing his ice pack anymore.)

Tigger: What do you think that's...funny?

Larry: Yeah. Ah... Oh. Uh... Uh, no. No. Wow. Eh, heh. That's godda hurt.

Tigger: Yeah, but it wasn't my fault!

(Tigger flops his head onto the table.)

Tigger: They got 'em mixed-up at Photo Hut! *sobs*

Larry: W-wow. It, uh... Heh. It-it happens. But-but it's not a big deal. So you messed up a song. It's not the end of the world.

(A mysterious man and a woman in a red dress enter an ice cream parlor. The man's face's obscured by the turned up collar of his trench coat. The man sits down and places his briefcase on the counter.)

Larry: I'll be with you in a minute, folks. What you need is a li'l something to cheer you up.

(Larry walks over to the jukebox again.)

Larry: And-and I've got just the thing.

(He presses a few butons.)

Larry: There. That oughta do it.

(He walks away from the jukebox.)

Larry: What'll it be, sir?

(The songs that play "Promised Land", "Good Morning George" and "All in the Golden Afternoon". After that, Tigger sniffs a li'l.)

Tigger: Yeah. Maybe I should just have gold in the afternoon for the time I did have with my Silly Songs. Bye, silly songs. Nice knowing you. (He begins singing in sorrow) It isn't any trouble just to S-M-I-L-E...

Larry: Okay. Wrong song. Bad timing. Ah... These'll be great. You'll see. Oh! This one's so funny! (laughs) (singing) Love your  neigh - bor... (speaking) O-okay, buddy! Hang on! Daddy's coming!

(The next songs that play are "Keep Walking", "Love Your Neighbor" and "Salesmunz Rap".)

Larry: (laughs) Oh, that cracks me up! Bungee bungee bungee-wungee-woogee-wagee-weegee... Come on! (laughs)

(Larry stops laughing and notices that Tigger's still not cheering up.)

Tigger: I hope those guys didn't get hurt falling on their heads like that. You think they got hurt?

Larry: Oh. Gee, buddy. I don't know. They were wearing their helmets.

Tigger: Yeah. They were wearing their helmets. That's good.

Larry: Look. Buddy. M-maybe it's none of my business, but...why're you so down? You wanna tell me what's going on?

Scallion #1: I'll tell you what's going on!

(The mysterious man reveals himself to be Scallion #1. Tigger looks surprised then mad. Scallion #1 hops over to the jukebox.)

Scallion #1: Perhaps this will clear things up.

(Scallion #1 glares at Tigger. They both do weird looks. Scallion #1 glares again and selects a song.)

Tigger: *screams* NO!

(The song Scallion #1 selected is "His Cheeseburger". After the song, Larry looks at Scallion #1.)

Larry: Gasp! You don't mean...?

Scallion #1: Yes! It's my fault! All my fault! I'm the one to blame!

(Tigger gently bangs his head on the table.)

Larry: That's despicable. I'd feel that way too if somebody took my songs away.

(Tigger nods in agreement.)

Scallion #1: It's just that... I... Well... Surely you can understand my position. I was simply acting in the public's best interest. We do have standards to uphold, you know.

(Larry scorns at him.)

Scallion #1: Yes. I see. Well... But then, I got these.

(Scallion #1 opens his briefcase. Larry looks on as the rain outside stops. Scallion #1 pulls out a pile of papers. He takes one piece of paper and reads it out loud.)

Scallion #1: Ahem! "We, the undersigned, believe that the scallion number 1 should forgive and forget the Song of the Cebu incident and return Silly Songs with Larry to regular Veggie programming, signed 167,512 adoring fans, including, but unlimited to, the entire population of Duluth, Minnesota and even someone in Moose Lake."

Tigger: Moose Lake?

Scallion #1: Yes. Moose Lake.

Tigger: (happy) Wow. Moose Lake.

Scallion #1: The people have spoken. I'm afraid I have no other choice but to hereby decree that Silly Songs is henceforth reinstated. Effective immedeitely! Which is what, I suppose, henceforth means. But no madder! Go on! Sing with all the silliness you can mister!

(Scallion #1 hops onto the counter.)

Scallion #1: Let the world know, you're onto its farthest reaches, including, but unlimited to, Moose Lake, that this's not the end of silliness! No! Quite the mercy! Silliness has just begun!

(He slips and falls off the counter. His head pops up from behind.)

Scallion #1: But don't be too silly. Please?

(Tigger gives Scallion #1 a wink in the eye, gets up and hops over to the jukebox. He pulls out a disc entitled "Jodlaava eläinlääkäri". He puts the disc in. An arm of the jukebox places a disc in the player and "The Yodeling Vet of the Alps" plays in Finnish.)
