00:01 - Gonna be a fun lawn to kill though, I'll tell you that.

00:03 It's so green, it's so, you know,

00:06 there's definitely people who would have a thing for this.

00:09 And those aren't the kinds of people I like.

00:11 So this is all trash, this is gonna have to go.

00:13 That'll feel really good.

00:14 Nothing here is native, this is all garbage.

00:16 - Who's this elderly friend?

00:18 - Oh, it looks like some kind of maple, yeah.

00:22 - Oh, it's gnarly.

00:23 - Looks like it's a beautiful tree though.

00:25 (choral music)

00:28 - You can see how the grass can't cut it

00:30 beneath the maple too, I like that.

00:31 - It's already dying.

00:33 - Sitting right at the entrance to their neighborhood,

00:35 Cash and Emily hope to set a strong example

00:38 for others to follow.

00:39 Because without a good example,

00:42 it's easy to succumb to peer pressure

00:44 and engage in dangerous behaviors.

00:47 Take for example our friends the Durkins,

00:50 whose son little Henry had a close call

00:53 with the wrong crowd.

00:55 (applause)

00:56 - You sure this is the right way to do it?

00:57 - We need to confront him.

00:59 (knocking)

01:02 - Henry, can we come in?

01:04 - It's your mother and father.

01:05 - Okay, come in mom and dad.

01:08 (audience laughing)

01:12 - Hello Henry, we need to speak with you

01:14 about some things we found in your room.

01:17 - Lawn care for dummies, green grass magic.

01:21 I know you guys don't like that stuff,

01:22 I just wanted to blend in.

01:25 - Now we're not angry with you,

01:27 we're just very disappointed.

01:30 We've talked about this, you know where we stand on lawns.

01:33 - I know.

01:36 - You know there's a better way

01:37 to live more in harmony with nature,

01:40 the ecology around you.

01:42 And we know it's hard at school

01:43 because all the other children have lawns

01:46 and the children call you Mr. Weedy Pants

01:49 and Flower Field and all kinds of hurtful names.

01:54 - I see them out there every week,

01:55 mowing their lawns and it just,

01:57 I don't know, I just thought it looked cool.

01:59 - Henry, it really disturbs me to think of you

02:02 reading and being exposed to some of this material.

02:05 It just isn't right Henry.

02:07 - Now you know that there's repercussions for your actions.

02:10 - What are you gonna ground me?

02:11 - You're going to be killing a lawn every week this summer.

02:16 - Oh man, every week?

02:18 - I don't wanna hear it.

02:20 One lawn every week and it starts today.

02:26 - Oh, it just broke.

02:28 - That's my little man.

02:32 You're making me so proud.

02:38 I knew that you'd learn your lesson.

02:41 That's my little baby boy.

02:49 - Anyway, join us next week when little Henry

02:52 learns the intricacies of binomial nomenclature.
