(LAURA) Wow! That's great!
(JUNIOR) Yeah!
Everyone must have been
really happy, right?
(PA NARRATOR)
Well, almost everyone.
(JONAH) Yes, thank you!
Thank you!
(KHALIL) Thank you, thank you!
(JONAH) So long!
Yes, thank you very much!
(PA NARRATOR) You see,
Jonah figured God wouldn't
really forgive the Ninevites.
I mean, they'd done
some terrible stuff.
No! He figured God
had something else in mind.
(KHALIL) What are we doing?
(JONAH) Oh, it's time
to watch the fun!
(KHALIL) And what fun
would that be?
(JONAH) Well, I did what
I was supposed to do.
I warned them that they were
going to get in big trouble!
So now that they've had
their warning, it's time
to watch God wipe them
off the face of the Earth!
Aha!
I picked a safe distance
so we won't get singed.

Oh, this is going to be great!
The bad guys finally getting
what they deserve!
(PA NARRATOR) So Jonah waited
for God to destroy Nineveh.
Even now, God was compassionate
towards Jonah and caused
a plant to grow that shaded him
from the hot sun.
(JONAH) Hmm? Oh! Yes! Very nice!
Thank you! Very nice!
(PA NARRATOR)
Jonah kept waiting.
But it didn't seem like
anything was happening!
He wondered if maybe God
was forgetting something.
(JONAH) All right! I did my job!
So... Fire!
Brimstone! Whatever! You pick!
Right over there!
I'll just sit here
under my weed and wait.
[crash]
What, what happened?
What? How could you?
(KHALIL) Hmm?
All your whining made me hungry!
It was just a weed...
(JONAH) Just a weed?
It... it was my shade!
It was my friend!
Oh, dear Lord,
how could you let this happen?
[crying]
(KHALIL) Would you
look at yourself?
You care more about that weed
than about all the people
in Nineveh!
(JONAH) Well, I...
(KHALIL) Why are you here now
instead of back in the belly
of that whale?
Because God is compassionate,
he wanted to help you!
And because he is merciful,
he gave you a second chance!
(JONAH) Oh, yes!
And I'm very grateful...
(KHALIL) Has it ever occurred
to you that maybe God
loves everybody?
Not just you!
That maybe he wants to give
everyone a second chance?
(JONAH) Uh, well...
(KHALIL) He saw that those
people needed help - that they
didn't know right from wrong -
and he wanted to help them!
And that is why he sent you!
(JONAH) Ah...
(KHALIL) And when you told them
what they were doing wrong
they said they were sorry.
They put down their mackerels
and their halibuts.
And they asked God
for a second chance.
And by golly, he gave them one!
Don't you see?
God wants to give everyone
a second chance!
And so should we!
(JONAH) Well, if they get
a second chance -
those fish-slappers -
well, then, it would be better
if I were dead!
Oh, I wish I were back
in that whale!
[crying]
(KHALIL) You are pathetic.
You know, patience runs
very deep in my family,
but not that deep.
I am out of here!
(JONAH) What?
What are you doing?
(KHALIL) I wanted to be big
and important, just like you!
But the world doesn't need
more people who are big
and important.
The world needs more people
who are nice and compassionate
and merciful.
That's what I want to be.
You can find yourself
a new traveling buddy.
Goodbye.
(JONAH) You can't just leave!
(KHALIL) Can and am!
(JONAH) But who will I talk to?
You can't just leave me here
all alone!
Hello? Carlyle? Reginald?
Carlyle? Khalil? Khalil?
Khhhalil? Ohh!
(PA GRAPE) The end!
