Several years pass, and the bud in the boot grows into a handsome and fruitful apple tree. Though Wall.E doesn't know what an apple is, he finds it to be beautiful, and so he wants to gather the all the fruits to give to Eve as he has always done when he's found something beautiful, He stretches out his treads as far as he can, but try as may, the apples are too high to reach and he is not able to pick them. As Wall.E sits under the tree, trying to figure out how to get to the apples, he sees the plump, red fruit, suddenly start falling down. He is so happy to gather them, but doesn't realize Eve is above helping Wall.E using her laser beam.
