The next morning, we see Junior & Laura having a tea party. They need 1 more plate. Junior volunteers his dad's special bowling plate. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
"That's Art Bogoddi, the greatest bowler who ever rolled a ball. Only 200 plates made! It's collectable!" #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh noooooooooo Junior knocked the plate down and it broke!!!! #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
hahahha suddenly Laura makes up an excuse to leave. Junior doesn't know what to do. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Wow it's the fib that fell from outer space. He can help Junior w his broken plate problem. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Fib says "what you need is a story."—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
About how SOMEBODY ELSE broke the plate
Junior: "You mean you WANT ME TO LIEEEEE?"
#PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales
Dad: "Hi Junior! How was your day today? ... My plate! My Art Bogoddi limited-edition collector's plate! What happened to it???" #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Junior tells Dad that Laura broke the plate #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Dad buys the story. Fib seems to have grown bigger. He says Junior did great.—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Junior: "What about Laura?"
Fib: "She'll be fine! A little fib never hurt anybody."
#PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales
Junior is so happy to be free from being in trouble #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Meanwhile LarryBoy is driving around in his LarryMobile looking for "the foreign object" from space #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales pic.twitter.com/wWETPvuLcW—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Seems like there could be a better way to search than just driving his giant car around #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Oh no, Percy the Pea says Laura got in trouble for breaking the plate! Percy wants to know what really happened! #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Now Junior says actually Lenny (Laura's brother) broke the plate. By giving it to a crocodile.—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
#PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales
Percy: "Gee.... I didn't think Lenny was capable of that kind of violence. He seemed like such a nice kid. I didn't even know he had a crocodile." #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Now the fib has grown to be as tall as a veggie-adult. With legs. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
omgggg LarryBoy is complaining—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
"this suit is very consticting"
He wants to give up & go home
#PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales
Oh no! Laura, Lenny, and Percy have all come to confront Junior! #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Junior says actually it was space aliens who switched brains with cows, & broke the plate—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
#PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales

Alfred: "I also dabble in biochemistry, nuclear medicine, you know, this and that" #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Alfred says the monster is a lie. But we don't know how to stop it yet. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Alfred says unfortunately he hasn't had time to build weapons systems yet #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09

The fib caught LarryBoy & squeezed him & one of his super-suction ears popped off #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Alfred: "according to my calculations, you can do...... nothing."—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09

Alfred: "you cannot stop the lie, but someone else can!!!!!!!!"—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09

#PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales
@pnumber628 Oh yes. I remember the scratchy, high-pitched sound that modems used to make too!—Ahab (@Ahab_Of_Gilead) 2017-12-09
fib is already chewing on LarryBoy, Junior hears Alfred's voice on LarryBoy's radio: "It's Junior! Junior can stop the lie!!!!" #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Junior yells out "i did it" and the fib shrinks down & disappears #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Ah good everyone is safe now. Junior apologizes to Dad for breaking the plate. Dad is all cool about it. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
That's the end of the story, now we are back to Bob & Larry on the counter #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09

I REPEAT: THIS LARRYBOY MUSIC VIDEO IS THE BEST THING EVER #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
All right that's the end of VeggieTales "LarryBoy and the Fib From Outer Space." Let's discuss. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Overall, I don't really have any problems w "LarryBoy & the Fib from Outer Space." #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Yeah, I agree that in general, we shouldn't lie- and especially in cases like a kid breaking something & blaming it on someone else bc they don't want to be in trouble- yeah don't do that #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
One big idea [ha] in this video was that a lie always gets bigger. Junior thought after he told his dad Laura broke the plate, then he was off the hook & that was the end of it. But it wasn't. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Yeah overall this morality lesson is really good. Maybe my only concern is how in the story, the consequences of lying were a big monster, external to the actual plate situation & ppl involved. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Maybe they could have focused more on "don't like bc it hurts ppl" instead of "don't lie bc lying is bad". #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Also, I believe it is moral to lie in certain special circumstances- like when you're talking to a dangerous person who would hurt somebody if you told them the truth #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
But mostly this video focused on the one example, of Junior lying when he broke the plate, and then at the end when Bob & Larry were summing it up they said "always tell the truth" but that was just one tiny bit #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Like I very much DO NOT agree with "always tell the truth", but the average child probably isn't going to encounter a situation where it's ethical to lie. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
@pnumber628 Tbh, I kinda disagree with that. Situations of child abuse are scary common, both from parents and other "authority figures".—Superenby! Destroying Truth Itself! (@MorganL666) 2017-12-09
@MorganL666 okay yeah you're right- i didn't encounter situations like that but a lot of kids do :(—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
@pnumber628 Like, I wish kids didn't encounter dangerous people who they need to lie to to protect themselves and others, but I don't think it's uncommon enough that it's okay/reasonable to teach kids to always tell the truth.—Superenby! Destroying Truth Itself! (@MorganL666) 2017-12-09
So I think it's good that they focused more on the STORY instead of "THE RULES SAY you should always tell the truth" #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
I like how Percy/Laura/Lenny came back to confront Junior abt his lie. The fib monster was only half of the consequences he faced- the other half was actual realistic things that would happen when you lie. #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
All right yeah some kids do encounter situations where they need to lie to protect themselves #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales https://twitter.com/MorganL666/status/939343443091849216 …—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
So then, maybe what we should be teaching kids is how to tell the difference between a situation where you should lie or you shouldn't lie #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
Instead of "never lie" #PerfectNumberWatchesVeggieTales—Perfect Number (@pnumber628) 2017-12-09
