The enormous pumpkin blocks her garden path, preventing her from accessing her garden. She seeks help from her neighbors, 'M'e Mapalesa and 'M'e Masello, but together they cannot move the pumpkin. A small worm approaches the pumpkin, and to 'M'e Maneo's surprise, the pumpkin speaks, telling the worm to stop because it tickles. The worm continues to nibble, and the pumpkin rolls away down the hill. It stops at the bottom of the hill where two shepherds find it. They decide to eat the pumpkin, thinking it looks delicious.
