Biography[]
Larry first appears during the opening song in his Pusher form, after the kids sang "If something bad happened", the Pusher appeared on a cliff surrounded by fire and sang: "It pro'ly sound like this!" Later, the first scene begins introducing him in his true from as Larry Hardcore. He came to the school to talk about how kids should say no to drugs, in a rather ironic way. He explains that he got high and wrote a hit song, which ended up making an insane amount of money. After talking about how he used the money to buy more drugs and a motor boat and how he gave some to his mother and charity, he begins to explain how he was into every kind of drug. He listed some examples, and then said that he would have smoked raisins if someone had told him that they would get him high. The scene then switches to children in the hall fantasizing about getting high on raisins. JFK then points out a hooded figure (Larry in disguise) and assumes that he will be able to provide them with drugs. After becoming JFK over to him, he led him behind a dumpster that he referred to as his office. As it turns out, there was a genuine office behind the dumpster, and the figure spoke into a speaker telling his secretary to hold his calls. He then pulls out a bag of raisins, and asks JFK how many scoops he wants. He requested two, and they both started laughing. For a while, the scenes depicted the children under what they believed psychedelic effects of the raisins. Larry is not seen for a while until the scene turns to Joan of Arc sitting in a tree. Larry than opens a door from within that tree, the tree's interior seemingly being illuminated by a red light. He then blows raisin smoke in Joan's face, and his song begins. He reveals that he is "The Pusher", and that his goal is to push kids to smoke raisins, in hops to later get them to do other fruits. In the last scene, the adults try to burn the raisins to get rid of them. The smoke then blows in their faces, and they seem to get high. The teens decide that they don't want to do it if the parents are now doing it, and one teen suggested that they do crack instead. The Pusher in his hooded figure from cries out in agony that his power is diminishing, and he shrinks to normal size (apparently having been bigger that first believed). The teens take off his costume and it is revealed that he is Larry. They asked him why, and he reveals his plan. He explains that he opened for the California Raisins on their '89, but the only "dancing fruits" that kids wanted to listen to were the Backstreet Boys. The "Raisin Council" needed a new marketing campaign, and that's why he got kids hooked on raisins. He also that the kids never experienced real psychedelic effects, and that it was just all in their heads. The episode then ends, but not before featuring a dragon from Gundi's psychedelic adventure.
