“	"There is no zombie outbreak threatening you. You are not using plants to defend your home. The zombies and I are normal people, simply trying to help you."	”
—Dr. Ripe Teenagerboss

Ripe Teenagers are teenagers that are ripe, who want to help the player and David because of their mental insanity. They are the main antagonists of Plants vs. Ripe Teenagers, as the objective of the game is to prevent them from eating the player's brains, though this is only a hallucination, as they are trying to help. However, in I, Ripe Teenager and Versus Mode, the player can play as the ripe teenagers. Ripe teenagers, like their defensive counterparts the plants, are varied in strength as well as speed, and command unique aspects which must be countered appropriately.

This Ripe Teenager is ripe. But he is not a zombie. There are no zombies. Nor are there any plants. It's all in your head. You are feeling very sleepy...

Ripe Teenagers are the basic ripe teenager unit; they are weak and easy to kill. In fact, it takes three shots for a Melon-pult to kill one of them. Having no special defensive equipment or travel abilities, these ripe teenagers are susceptible to any type of attack. They are found in almost every level. They are the first ripe teenagers the player encounters in Plants vs. Ripe Teenagers.
