The central theme of The Big Rescue is the idea that not helping is the same as hurting.  This concept is brought out in a few different ways.

Tomato Sawyer (Bob the Tomato) only wants to do what he has to to help Little Jimmy Gourd get back to his mother in St. Louis.  Huckleberry Larry (Larry the Cucumber) wants to make sure to help until Jimmy gets home.

Jazz here, and yes, I have been stuck in my room for quite a few days now.  I think this is day six……  Yes, I’m going a little crazy, so I decided I might need counseling, and that reminded me of a song…… Larry and I might have more in common than I thought!
