It's a Not-So Meaningful Light (a.k.a Strawberry, Alvin and The Great Escape! or S.A.G.E.) is a sequel to It's a Meaningful Life. This is similar to That of It's a Wonderful Life and Jonah - a VeggieTales Movie.
Plot
With "King George and the Ducky", "Esther... The Girl Who Became Queen ๐ธ๐ผ", "The Ballad of Little Joe" and "Gideon: Tuba Warrior" in its heels, everyone's favorite motivationally challegened seafarers - The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything are back! And this time, this group of lazy slackers, and Alvin Simon and Theodore a group of pop star-singing leeks team up with a group of girls and break Mr. Marigold's slavery plan. But the pirates who don't do anything don't let on. They have hit a few snags. With four more days left, and as they scramble to come up with the money ๐ฐ for some operations by doing very ridiculous things that the Marigolds suggest them to do, including building pyramids of sheep ๐; the league and the Marigolds, of course, become very suspicious. Those operations cost lots and lots of fortunes ๐ฎ! If Strawberry ๐ is to stand a chance against the businessmen, drastic measures will be taken from being in the belly of a shark ๐ฆ and making pirate impostors sing for a painter to pushing the captain ๐ฉโโ๏ธ overboard and breaking the balcony of a palace. When everyone is focused on this rotten plot, can a kind rhubarb help to get to the root of the problem? Will Alvin, Simon, Theodore and the Pirates find it in their hearts? What will the Marigolds do to the League, the pop stars, and The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything? Or will the people of Ninaborough continue throwing huge tantrums and send Alvin, Simon and Theodore out of town? Watch the video ๐ผ as we find the answers and the inspiration to ponder others in a quest for eternal life, a battle for the kingdom ๐ฐ and a lesson in being loyal to others and keep an eye out to see the next trick Alvin, Simon and Theodore have up their sleeves - or wherever.

Trivia
- The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything return after their appearance in their feature film from 2008!
- This is the second VeggieTales episode with a lesson in courage. The first was Esther.
- This is one of the few episodes that spurn the usual VeggieTales format: there is no opening or closing countertop sequence, no "VeggieTales Theme" or "What We Have Learned" songs ๐ต, no Qwerty, and no Silly ๐ Song ๐ต with Larry.
- Unlike the other VeggieTales DVDs ๐ฟ that have English ๐บ๐ธ and Spanish ๐ช๐ธ subtitles, this has English ๐บ๐ธ, Spanish ๐ช๐ธ, French ๐ซ๐ท and German ๐ฉ๐ช subtitles and unlike Jonah and Pirates, this has langauge tracks for the four aforementioned languages.
- This is the first episode for Petunia to wear glasses ๐ค. On that note, Petunia wore glasses ๐ similar to what Larry had as MacLarry, in "MacLarry and the Stinky Cheese ๐ง Battle".
- Considering that the events of Captain ๐ฉโโ๏ธ Malab being caught with 20,000 pounds of floss happened in 2001, and it was 38 years ago at the time, then this took place at least in 1963.
- A lot of duplicate characters were used, such as Simon meeting two grapes ๐ that share the same body, as Pa.
- Mr. Lunt states Larry's not good at throwing dodgeballs. Which is not true since he did knock a guard over the canyon before, in Moe.
- This is set in Ninaborough - a sea-coast variant of Las Vegas, Nevada.
- Mentions from, and cameos of Buzz and Woody from the Toy Story films are shown a few times.
- As stated in the Audio Commentary, a countertop segment was written for this episode but was cut from the script on account of the episode's length.
- in the scene with the angel ๐ผ giving Alvin a magical bible at the end of the film, the wagon being pulled by a Rockwell football ๐ player has Mr. Marigold's riches on them. During the battle, Mr. Marigold and his henchmen were thrown into the sea ๐ and bouncing around like peas on a skillet, so the fact that Stewart Green, Morty Bumble, and the people of Rockwell rounded up all the Marigolds' worthless junk (clothes, toys, books ๐), and portraits of past rulers perhaps suggesting there were casualties from the fighting, or showing that Stewart, Morty and everyone in Rockwell pretended to be Vikings, raided Ninaborough and took the Marigolds' valuables.
- Alvin's super grabber is similar to space ๐ pirate Luntar the Looter's.
- Speaking of Luntar, the things Alvin stole from Calvin's ship ๐ข are the broken aardvark and chameleon from the Wizard of Ha's, the quarter from King George, one of the workers' shovels, Woody's hat ๐ฉ, one of the shoe ๐ headgear, the marionettes from Pistachio, and several others.
- The scene with Alvin's face after a cannonball zooms past became an internet meme.
- There are some ads in Ninaborough from previous shows:
- Eat at Jolly Joe's! (The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: a VeggieTales Movie ๐ฅ)
- See Lanny, Dennis, Alister and Stix of The Groovy Brothers! (Celery Night Fever ๐ค)
