* RealLifeWritesThePlot: After "His Cheeseburger" was featured in the previous episode, Big Idea got a petition from a radio station in Duluth, Minnesota, signed by fans who felt bad that Archibald had cancelled "Silly Songs with Larry". When they got the actual petition, Mike Nawrocki decided to incorporate the petition into the plot of the episode.

-->'''Jimmy:''' That's despicable! I'd feel that way too if somebody took my songs away!

* DarkReprise: After "The Thankfulness Song", we hear a slow saxophone rendition of the song as Larry sobs hysterically.

* ExitPursuedByABear: A literal example of this trope happens to Larry at the end of "The Yodeling Veterinarian Of The Alps".

* JumpScare: The VHS version of the Big Idea logo bumper has the original roar of the bear played right when the logo's letters pop into place, with another (and less scarier) sound of said bear playing when the A "pops".

* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: The yodeling veterinarian's nurse asks for a raise after their profits soar (something more due to his work than to the yodeling), only to receive a blunt "no." The next time a customer brings in a pet (a bear), he doesn't offer the standard treatment, and the bear chases the vet offscreen.

* DudeNotFunny: In-universe minor example, when Jimmy laughs at Larry's "The Song Of The Cebu" after it ends, before noticing that Larry is very angry about this.

After "His Cheeseburger" ends, Jimmy is both shocked and appalled that Archibald would do something like that to Larry, saying that he'd be in the same position if someone took his songs away. Archibald tries to explain himself, while Jimmy can only give him a rather scornful look. Archibald then opens up the briefcase that he had brought with him, before he opens it up, revealing a bunch of papers. Archibald takes out one paper and reads from it, revealing that 167,512 fans have posted a petition, stating that "Silly Songs with Larry" be brought back and that Archibald should forgive and forget the "Song Of The Cebu" incident. Among the people that signed the petition are the entire population of Duluth, Minnesota and someone in Moose Lake. Archibald then hops up on the counter and delivers a rousing speech about how the world should know that it's not the end of silliness, but actually that silliness has just begun, before he falls off the counter, while Larry, Jimmy, and Lovey look down to see if he's okay. Archibald then picks himself up, before telling Larry to try not to be too silly. Larry is overjoyed that he got his Silly Songs back, before he puts one of his silly songs into the jukebox, which then plays the brand new Silly Song "The Yodeling Veterinarian Of The Alps".

* DrowningMySorrows: Larry does this on a bunch of ice cream sundaes, due to the sadness of getting his Silly Songs cancelled.

* BigNo: Larry, when Archibald goes to play "His Cheeseburger" on the jukebox.

It is a rainy night in the city at Jimmy's ice cream parlor. Inside the ice cream parlor, Jimmy, the proprietor of the establishment, is cleaning some plates, while Larry the Cucumber, who is in a state of sadness ever since Archibald Asparagus cancelled "Silly Songs with Larry", has been [[DrowningMySorrows drowning his sorrows]] in ice cream sundaes, which give him a terrible ice cream headache. After a couple of flashbacks showing what happened ever since Larry messed up while performing "The Song Of The Cebu", Larry suddenly starts tossing and turning in great stress, which catches Jimmy's attention, before he goes to see what's wrong with Larry, before the scene then cuts to the Veggietales Theme Song.

After "The Thankfulness Song" ends, Larry is now even down than ever, before he starts downheartedly singing "It Isn't Any Trouble Just To S-M-I-L-E", while Jimmy notes that he put up the wrong song then goes back to the jukebox once again. While this is going on, the mysterious man is at first stern about this, but becomes mildly sympathetic once he sees how Larry feels. Jimmy then brings up more songs on the jukebox, which are "Keep Walking" (from "[[Recap/VeggieTalesEpisode9JoshAndTheBigWall Josh and the Big Wall]]"), "Big Things Too!" (from "[[Recap/VeggieTalesEpisode5DaveAndTheGiantPickle Dave and the Giant Pickle]]"), and "Stuffmart Rap" (from "[[Recap/VeggieTalesEpisode10MadameBlueberry Madame Blueberry]]"). After "Stuffmart Rap" ends, Jimmy laughs at seeing two of the Stuff Mart salesmen falling down on their heads while bungee-jumping. Larry is still not cheered up, and when Jimmy wants to know why Larry is so down in the dumps, the mysterious man then reveals himself as Archibald Asparagus, saying that he'll tell him what's going on. Larry is surprised when he sees that Archibald has come, before becoming very angry. Archibald then approaches the jukebox and brings up "His Cheeseburger", to which Larry gives off a BigNo.

A barbershop quartet, comprised of the Scallions and Frankencelery, sing a song about a man who lived so long ago in the Alps and would help people's pets in a most unusual way. The man is a veterinarian (played by Larry the Cucumber) who is assisted by his nurse (played by Pa Grape). The first of the veterinarian's patients is a "poor sick penguin" (played by Harry the Penguin), who had been brought in by a young boy (played by Junior Asparagus). The doctor makes note that the penguin has a fever and blue toes, but sings to the penguin by way of yodeling, claiming that it will help the penguin feel better. The penguin spits out his thermometer, before the nurse gives the boy some penicillin "for your sickly arctic bird". The quartet then sing about how no one could explain about the wonders of the veterinarian's practice. The nurse is now on the phone with the doctor, explaining that the penguin is "up and kicking". The next of the doctor's patients is a cat who had been brought in by a man (played by Bob the Tomato). The doctor sings that the cat is "feeling nauseous and a week past due". Just like he did with the penguin, the doctor then sings to the cat by way of yodeling to help her feel better. The nurse then tells the man to drive into the city and to "buy a jug of milk for your nauseated kitty". The quartet then sing about how the doctor's practice grew and that his profits flew until one day when the nurse asked for a raise in pay, which the doctor denied after some pondering. The nurse is on the phone with the doctor, explaining that the cat is feeling great and that she had 6 kittens, one of which they named after the doctor. This time, the next patient is a grizzly bear, who has quite a few bear traps on him, that had been brought in by a boy (played by Percy Pea), while the doctor notes that the "bear-trapped teddy" is quite uncomfy and that he might be too. The doctor then sings to the bear by yodeling, like he did before, but this time, this only makes the bear feel even worse than before. The quartet then sing that the moral of the story is that "when you go a little loopy, better keep your nurse well-paid". The bear then chases after the doctor after that, before chasing him out the door as the song then ends, as well as the episode.

* {{Gasp}}: Jimmy does this, after "His Cheeseburger" ends, when he realizes that Archibald was responsible for cancelling "Silly Songs with Larry".
