Whirlpool! 42:34 12. A Burst of Dazzling Light Poppy, a human girl, meets Herr Carrot and Don Tomato, who promise to show her how vegetables grow. She rides via onion-drawn carriage to Vegetable Land. The trio tumble down a hole in the ground and land in the court of the Vegetable King. The Vege-Men fiercely explain to Poppy how unhappy they are with the way humans treat them, and the King demands that she be planted in the ground to learn how to grow like a vegetable. Following a friendly cabbage's advice, she faces her burial with confidence and curiosity. She dreams underground as she sprouts into Poppy-growths. The Vege-Men check on her progress. When she's done growing, they harvest her and put her into a stew, which they eat at a merry banquet. After they finish eating, they all dance in a circle, spinning faster and faster and faster until they all crash through the floor. Dazed, Poppy wakes up in the garden and realizes it was all a dream. Based on the 1897 children's book The Vege-Men's Revenge by Bertha Upton and Florence K. Upton.
