Text reads, veggie vote 2021. Tvo’s, The Agenda host Steve Paikin, shares a split screen with the veggie election candidate, Corn. Steve wears a suit and tie. Corn is in a garden. Text reads veggie candidate Corn, veggie vote 2021. The tvo logo is on the right, and The Agenda logo, a letter a, is on the left.

Steve says, CORN,
IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU.
THANKS FOR TAKING SOME TIME
OUT OF YOUR SCHEDULE
TO HAVE A CHAT WITH US HERE.
WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE TO RUN
FOR MAYOR OF THE GARDEN?

Corn says, YOU KNOW,
THAT'S AN INTERESTING QUESTION,
BECAUSE I THINK
FOR SO MANY YEARS,
PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TAKING CORN
FOR GRANTED…

Steve nods.

Corn says, …AND OFTEN ENJOYING CORN
AND ALL THE BENEFITS
WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING.
IT'S TIME FOR CORN TO BE
RECOGNIZED AS THE BEST VEGETABLE
ONCE AND FOR ALL!

Steve says, AH,
I SEE, I SEE.
OKAY, AND SPEAKING
OF THE BEST,
WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES YOU THINK
YOU'RE THE BEST CANDIDATE?

Corn says, I'M SO GLAD
YOU ASKED.
YOU SEE, CORN HAS BEEN
A CRUCIAL COMPONENT
OF THE SUMMERTIME BARBECUE,
THE DEFINITIVE MOVIE SNACK,
A BREAKFAST CEREAL STAPLE,
AND NOW,
IT'S HELPING YOUR TOOTHPASTE
TASTE DELICIOUS,
AND EVEN POWERING ROCKETSHIPS.

Steve says, WOW. I DID NOT,
THAT'S QUITE INCREDIBLE.

Steve looks impressed.

He says, NOW, THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE
ANYTHING CORN CAN'T DO,
IS THAT RIGHT?

Corn laughs.

Corn says, A LITTLE LOUDER FOR
THE VEGETABLES IN THE DIRT,
PLEASE!

Steve smiles. Corn laughs.

He says, I KID,
I KID.

Steve says, YOU KNOW, I BELIEVE YOU'VE
MENTIONED THAT BEFORE.
NOW, CARROT'S GROWING
IN THE DIRT,
DO YOU THINK THAT COULD BE
A DISADVANTAGE TO THEM?

Corn says, I'M NOT SAYING IT'S
A DISADVANTAGE,
ALL I'M SAYING IS THERE ARE
VEGETABLES THAT GROW BELOW,
AND THERE ARE VEGETABLES
THAT GROW ABOVE.
AND CORN HAPPENS TO BE
A CUT ABOVE,
IN MY PERSONAL OPINION.

Steve says, AH, I SEE,
OKAY.
WELL, THANKS AGAIN
FOR STOPPING BY TO CHAT,
AND LOKING FORWARD TO TUNING IN
TO THE BIG VEGGIE DEBATE.

Corn says, THAT'S RIGHT,
TUNE IN THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17TH
AT 4:30 PM
FOR THE LIVE VEGGIE DEBATE.
DON'T BE LATE!
BE GREAT,
LIKE CORN.

Corn and Steve smile.
