- Inggo

 'Tractor's World' is an episode of Karen's World, aired in 2002.

Synopsis
Karen misunderstands Inggo's dreams of buying a tractor. Meanwhile, Karen introduces Inggo to demonstrative pronouns, which are frequently used throughout the episode.

Act I
Inggo hums happily, holding a piece of brown paper. Karen asks why he is so cheerful, to which he replies to look at that. This confuses Karen, saying that he should have used 'this', a demonstrative pronoun. since they refer to things near him, which in this case the paper he is holding. He reveals the back of the paper: a picture of a tractor. Karen is overwhelmed at this information, knowing that she will eventually be replaced, but Inggo does not notice her.

Act II
To make things worse, Inggo then gets flowers, celebrating his joy of getting a tractor, even calling them 'this flowers', which Karen corrects by introducing him to 'these' and 'those', used for multiple objects. Inggo then asks her to get some rest, when a farmer informs him to check on some tractors in the barangay hall, leaving Karen in the process.

After Kokoy and Joy fetch water, they notice Karen crying, unusual for her. She informs them what has happened so far, worrying that her predictions are to become a reality. However, Tintin's optimistism suggests that Inggo does not intentionally want her to feel like this. Both kids ask her to join their playing.

They see Inggo crying, an odd circumstance given their playtime. He hugs Karen, mentioning that he might not see him anymore. This makes Karen lose it, proving her assumptions of Inggo. Inggo reveals that getting a tractor will not replace her, but will allow for more time with her. Karen apologizes.

Act III
After Inggo harvests palay, Karen gives Inggo some of his favorite food: sweet potatoes. He compliments by saying 'These are a things a tractor cannot give', which has a demonstrative pronoun. Karen is flabbergasted and impressed by him.
