Upgrade Me! is the one-hundred-third episode of VeggieTales that teaches a lesson in self-control.
Description[]
Burger Bell has recently gotten a Super Meal! This means a burger, fries, and a milkshake come in a super extra large size now! Mr. Lunt's love for cheeseburgers gets in the way, and he gets carried away with his eating habits. It's up to his friends to not only get him to eat healthier, but to teach him self-control with junk food.
Plus! See how Nehemiah takes on self-control while building a wall around Jerusalem and fending off a great army!

Inside References[]
- The reason Peyton hosts the show is because Bob took Larry to another session at Danish Immersion Camp. The first time he went was at the end of "The Ballad of Little Joe".
- "Upgrade Me!" uses Mr. Lunt as the main character, due to his singing role of "His Cheeseburger". Additionally, the instrumental version of the song that played inside Stuff-Mart in "Madame Blueberry" is heard inside Burger Bell.
- When Larry, Jimmy, and Jerry take Mr. Lunt to the gym, it's the exact same gym set from "Larry's Gym".
- The backdrop of "Achy Breaky Heart" is the same from "The Water Buffalo Song". Additionally, Larry's outfit is the same from the beginning of "The Ballad of Little Joe".
- When The French Peas come in as doctors during the Silly Song, the doctor's backdrop is the same from "Sneeze If You Need To".
- The French Peas taunting about the wall is a nod to "Josh and the Big Wall!". Additionally, an instrumental of "Keep Walking" is heard at one point.
- At one point, the Jews are seen playing Battlecows, first seen in "Paul's Incredible Journey".
