"Ella!" "Annabel!" "Wait for us!" "Hurry up." "Come on, Pipo, we can do this." " Ricky!" " Oh!" "Annabel!" "Yeah!" "You're the best, Annabel." "Ready?" "Then off we go." "Huh?" "Is that a fish?" "Oh!" "No!" "Don't stay there." "Hide!" "Calm down." "I'll handle this." "Hmm." "That's right." "Beat it!" "You just wait." "I'm not done with you yet." "And don't come back." "Thanks, Big Boss." "You saved our lives!" "Don't mention it." "It's a good thing I was passing by." "Right, Sammy?" "That was scary, Sammy." "What if he comes back?" "As long as I'm around, he'll never come back." "As long as you're around?" "Well, yeah." "I'm staying to protect you." "Yay!" "Big Boss!" "Where's Ricky?" "What are you doing?" "Huh?" " Ah!" " Yikes!" "Wow!" "What a pretty eye!" "No?" "I think it's strange." "We should show it to Cesar." "Hmm..." "This reminds me of something." "Hmm." "Not this one..." "It's not this one." "Where is it?" "Aha!" "Here we are." "You see?" "What did I tell you?" "This here eye is not that of a sea creature." "It was something built by humans." "Like this eye here." "So then it's not a fish eye?" "I don't like humans." "A human monster?" "Precisely." "My friends, starting today, fear no more." "As your new leader," "I name Marco as my head assistant, and Philip, my assistant's assistant." "And why can't I be your head assistant?" "I am older than he is." "Yeah?" "Well, big deal." "It's not you who gets to decide anyway." "That's enough." "Or there won't be any assistants at all." "Our new leader?" "We've never had a leader." "Really?" "What were you, then?" "Me?" "I..." "I..." "I protect the community." "We don't need you here." "Then I'll leave you all to be "protected" by Sammy." "I don't agree." "It's not Sammy who got rid of the monster." "Yeah." "It was Big Boss." "Yeah." "It was Big Boss." "Well, then, Sammy, it seems the community has decided upon a leader." "You can't let him do this." "This eye was built by humans?" "That's not very reassuring." "Hey, come see this!" "He lost his other eye." "But how can he see anything anymore without both his eyes?" "And he lost this." "Huh?" "Look!" "There are more!" "It's like a trail." "Huh?" "We're not gonna go in there, are we?" "You heard Cesar." "He said it wasn't a monster." "But we're not sure." "Precisely." "If you wanna find out, follow me!" "Hmm?" "I don't really wanna know." "Oh, why me?" "Huh?" "Nonsense." "You may be head assistant, but we're still both assistants." "I'm head assistant." "And in "head assistant," what's the key word?" "Head!" "Whereas you're just an assistant." "Oh, yeah?" "Then why do we say "head assistant"" "and not "assistant head", huh?" "Big Boss, you who's so strong and can scare away terrifying sea monsters, we have to go find food outside of the reef." "Would you be willing to come along so as to protect us?" "Oh..." "Why, of course." "Sure." "Oh, perfect." "We're leaving in an hour." "You think it's gonna work?" "He doesn't have a choice." "I think it's time to call again upon our monster." "Philip, go tell Jax to put on the monster costume." "I need to instill fear if I wanna remain their leader." "And why should I be the one to go?" "Hmm?" "Be careful, you guys." "Huh?" "Ah." "Oh..." "I am the abominable sea monster!" "It's just a big old costume, you guys." "Big Boss must've had an accomplice in order to..." " Ricky?" " Yes, Ella?" "You think you scare me?" "Oh!" "I am a monster!" "It's alive!" "It really is alive!" "So Jax was the accomplice?" "Are you thinking what I am?" "So?" "Ready, Big Boss?" "It's time." "Already?" "You don't wanna come?" "Of course I wanna come." "Look at that." "Yeah." "Not bad." "You call that a scary monster?" "Annabel, why don't you try putting that pink thing there on it?" "You see?" "Now it really looks like a monster." "Or one of Annabel's ancestors." "Why do you say that?" "Jax?" "Jax!" "Where in the world are you hiding?" "Oh, I'm gonna have to be the monster myself." "Why isn't the monster here yet?" "What's he doing?" "He's alive!" "He's alive!" "What's going on?" "The monster!" "He's really alive!" "Everything's fine." "I'll handle this." "The monster, Boss, I saw him." "He's really alive." "'Course not." "You know that it's just a teddy bear, and that you brought it to life." "Big Boss, save us!" "He's come back." "He's alive!" "Hmm." "Huh?" "Marco, you handle this." "What?" "Me?" "But..." "Wouldn't it be better if you did?" "You're the leader." "You big chicken!" "Another monster?" "They're everywhere!" "Help!" "Who's in the other monster?" "Big Boss, I have come to get you!" "So, Big Boss, save us." "Wait for me, guys!" "No, Sammy!" "It's dangerous!" "Did you see how scared he was?" "We were a big monster!" "You really saved us." "Bravo, children." "I'm proud of you." "Yeah!" "O great mighty sea monster!" "I'll give you whatever you want if you would just leave us alone!" "I hate detention." "Especially when it's the stingers' fault." "Oh, what a crybaby." "Please!" "Do you think Mister Lulu is gonna quiz us today on yesterday's lesson?" "I sure hope not." "What do you mean?" "It's simple." "The sun rises in the east and sets in the west." "You sure?" ""You sure?"" "You stingers got a problem?" "Children." "The sun is beating down too hard on them." "It's beating down on their brains." "Children?" "I'm gonna beat down on you if you keep that up." "That's enough." "Let's calm down now and begin class." "But he's the one who started it." "Children." "Look." "The tattletale is playing teacher's pet." "Say that to my face!" "Children?" "I'd love to." "Silence!" "Follow me." "Darn stain." "Oh, never mind." "How would you all like to be rewarded with something very precious?" "I've hidden three pearls in the reef." "There will be three teams." "Each team must bring back to me a pearl like this." "Ella, you will team up with Glitz." "Excuse me?" "Ricky, you will team up with Babbles." "And lastly, Annabel, you will team up with Crudd." "Ah..." "Uh." "Mister Lulu, what about me?" "Who am I with?" "Pipo?" "Uh, ah, yes, right." "You'll be with Ella and Glitz." "Huh?" "But I wanna be with my pal Ricky." "Yeah, that's true, it's not fair." "Silence!" "Look at me." "I have two pincers that never agree with one another." "And yet, they have learned to get along." "You are all going to have to cooperate." "And it's not with all your arguing that you will get the great reward I promised you." "That reward is all mine, for sure." "Okay, well, good luck." "We don't need luck." "We're gonna win, squirt." "I always win." "Good." "Now I am going to give a clue to each group." "So, pay attention." "Mister Lulu said," ""There where I hid the pearl we can see the sun set."" "That means west of the reef." "So then what are you waiting for to go find it?" "That's not all." "He also said that the pearl could be found in the dark in the middle of the day." "Hey there, you." "Aren't you gonna participate?" "Well, what?" "Can't you think for yourself?" "You scorpfish have to have somebody else chew your own food for you." "All you chew on is plankton." "Can't you see we're trying to think here?" "You know, Pipo, she's right." "This is supposed to be teamwork." "Ah, thank you." "Maybe so, but I would've preferred being on Ricky's team." "Whereas here, I'm stuck with a scorpfish." "Why did Mister Lulu do this to me?" "But of course." "Why did he put us together?" "Because we complement each other." "We can't go on the sand, but you, Ella..." "Ah?" "That's true." "Maybe Mister Lulu hid the pearl over there." "I'll go." "You see?" "You don't need me at all." "Where are you going, Flippers?" "Going to beg Ella for help?" "Mister Lulu said the pearl was in the shade until midday." "He must've hid it next to the hut on the beach." "No way!" "He was surely talking about the garbage dump." "There's shade there somewhere, I think." "You can tell you never pay attention in class, Stinger." "I'm gonna go look on the beach." "Whatever." "So, while you go get a suntan on your shell," "I'm gonna go get the pearl." "We'll just see who is right." "Oh!" "Glitz was right." "Oh, no!" "So Mister Lulu said we should come here?" "It's my favorite spot to get my tentacles massaged." "You coming?" "It's nice and hot!" "Oh!" "Mmm." "These little bubbles are nice." "But you think this is where the pearl is?" "What pearl?" "Well, the pearl we're supposed to bring back to Mister Lulu." "Oh, yeah!" "That's right." "But he did say, too, though, that we were supposed to have a good time together, didn't he?" "That's true." "After all, there's no emergency going on in the lagoon, now is there?" "It closed up as soon as I came near it." "That's why Mister Lulu said that the pearl could be found in the dark in the middle of the day." "There's no way to get it open!" "This is driving me bananas!" "That means if we can't get it out of there, it's as if we never found it." "Little shell..." "Open up..." "Yeah, right." "That'll work for sure." "At least she's trying to help!" "Thank you, Glitz." "I know!" "Pipo, do you want to be of help, yes or no?" "Yes?" "Get ready to grab the pearl when I get it to open." "Whatever you say." "Pipo!" "Oh!" "Huh?" "Oh?" "I swallowed it." "I swallowed the pearl!" "I don't believe it." "Hey, check this out." "I found a funny looking shiny rock." "Maybe if we polish it, we could pass it off as a pearl, no?" "Yeah, maybe if we blindfolded everybody." "Laugh all you like, but you haven't found a pearl, either." "That's not true." "I..." "I..." "Okay, I haven't found anything." "All we have to do is ask Mister Lulu for another clue." "Yeah, right, Flippers." "And while we're at it, why don't we just ask him to give us the pearl?" "Mmm." "Hey, wait!" "That's not a bad idea." "Hey." "Wait for me!" "So then, did you like the little bubbles?" "Yeah, that was great." "Oh?" "What's up?" "You found the pearl?" "What a strange looking pearl." "This isn't a pearl." "It's something even better." "Catch!" "Whoo!" "Whoo!" "Oh!" "Oh." "Oh!" "Yeah!" "So you got it, Flippers?" "You distract Mister Lulu, and I'll take one of his pearls without anyone noticing." "Then the reward will be all ours." "I'm not so sure." "Stealing is bad." "It's not stealing, it's borrowing, seeing as we'll give it back to Mister Lulu afterwards." "What's more, we will have done so without arguing." "He'll be proud of us." "You'll see." "Come on." "Okay." "But promise you'll stop calling me Flippers." "Huh?" "Hey there, Ricky." "Have you found the pearl?" "Where's Babbles?" "Um..." "Uh..." "He's still looking." "Uh." "I got a question, actually." "Could you re-explain the clue to me again, Mister Lulu?" "Of course." "Uh." "The pearl is in the shade until midday." "Now, when I said that, it was morning." "And since then, the sun has moved." "But you must try to remember where is the sun in the morning." "In the sky?" "Wrong." "Uh, I mean, yes, it is." "But not only." "It's to the east." "And..." "Ah, okay, I got it." "Thanks!" "Way to go." "He didn't notice a thing." "That's because you did a good job distracting him." "Teamwork." "Not bad, Flip..." "Uh, I mean not bad at all." "Well, look who's here." "You look kinda shell-shocked." "You guys didn't figure out the clue?" "Because we did!" "Glitz and I figured out the clue." "We even found the pearl, but..." "Pipo swallowed it." "Worst three seconds of my life." "Babbles, we gotta talk." "Gimme your pearl." "But it's not only mine." "Without Ricky, I would've never got it." "So that's how it is?" "You find a pearl together, and all of sudden, you're best friends in the whole world?" "Have you forgotten about your real friends?" "Have you forgotten about..." "Me?" "No, of course not, Glitz." "We'll split the reward, just the two of us, if you want." "You wouldn't like to hurt my feelings, now would you?" "Oh..." "Okay." "Weren't we supposed to be finding a pearl?" "One more game and then we'll go." "Okay." "Well, it seems you have all finally learned to get along." "So have you found the pearls?" "Ella?" "Truth is, we had a little problem." "But everything worked out and we found the pearl." "Here it is." "We won." "So what's the reward?" "Did you spit it out?" "Just a minute, Glitz." "First, let's see how the others made out." "Well, Babbles and I did pretty darn well." "Actually, no." "We didn't find the pearl." "What?" "Yes, we did." "What about the one we borrowed?" "Sorry, Ricky." "But..." "This pearl!" "This is a pearl that was in this box earlier on," "I recognize that little stain there." "Glitz, Pipo, Ella, I want an explanation!" "We have nothing to do with it!" "I thought you found it." "When in fact you stole it." "Babbles is the thief." "You all cheated, is that it?" "Wait a second." "We really did find a pearl." "It's just that Pipo swallowed it." "But he's gonna spit it out now, right, Pipo?" "That's enough!" "Come on, Flippers." "Never call me that again!" "This is indeed the pearl I hid in the shell." "Pipo, it seems that you are the only one who deserves the reward." "Which is..." "Having learned how to really get to know one another." "Huh?" "And for that, I nearly choked?" "All this pearl hunting business for that?" "Do you have any idea what we went through?" "I had to put up with a scorpfish the whole day." "Silence!" "So why don't we go look for the pearl now?" "How 'bout taking a little detour via the bubbles first?" "Super idea!" "Fine." "I'm gonna leave this big old sleepyhead right here." "Hey!" "Alpha!" "Alpha!" "Not so loud." "You're going to wake everybody up." "But where are you going?" "You know, Albert, everybody has the right to a little privacy now and then." "All right, we'll see each other tomorrow." "Good night." "Hmm." "Huh?" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh..." "Careful now." "To the left!" "Watch out." "To the right!" "Whoo-hoo!" "Wow!" "Yippee!" "This is like super fun!" "Hey, there, Albert, aren't you playing with them today?" "Normally, you pretend to be the big bad shark who chases them around wanting to bite them." "No, Sammy, my heart's just not into it today." "Nothing serious, I hope?" "Yes." "No." "I mean..." "It's Alpha." "You know, Albert, if you ever have a problem with your friends, you should never hesitate to talk about it." "Take an old turtle's advice." "Wow!" "That was thrilling!" "Yeah!" "We were going full speed as well!" "Can we do it again?" "Another time." "It's getting late." "I have to go now." "Oh..." "What a shame!" "See you tomorrow, kids." "See you tomorrow, Albert." "See you tomorrow, Alpha!" "Hmm..." "Huh?" "Oh..." "Hey, what's the matter, Albert?" "It's Alpha." "For the past couple of days, he hasn't been spending the night in the reef." "And he doesn't wanna tell me where he's going." "That's strange." "I even tried to follow him in secret last night." "But he's too fast." "What's more, is I bang into everything when he's not around." "Huh!" "Talk about selfish." "Maybe he doesn't always have to tell you everything he does." "Yeah, but we used to tell each other everything." "What's more, in two days, it's the anniversary of the day we first met." "But I don't think he cares one bit." "And anyway, if we're no longer friends," "I guess it doesn't matter anymore." "Hmm..." "Listen, my friends, this is a very serious situation." "We can't just leave Albert like this." "Hmm..." "Yeah." "I say we shouldn't stick our noses into other fish's business." "Alpha is free to do as he pleases." "You wouldn't be just curious, now would you?" "Hey, there." "Not at all." "I wanna help Albert out." "All right, then." "Who's up for following Alpha with me?" "Yeah!" "Awesome!" "A fun new game!" "What?" "Go out into the ocean right now?" "But it's gonna be time to eat soon." "Well, as you wish." "Annabel and I are gonna follow Alpha." "You two can stay here." "If we're not back in an hour, you go and tell Sammy, all right?" "If he managed to lose Albert," "I can't imagine how you two will be able follow him." "Okay, see you later." "I have an idea." "Annabel?" "Hmm?" "Go catch up to him and stall him." "But what do I say to him?" "I don't know." "Improvise." "Wow!" "What are you doing?" "Huh?" "It's plankton that becomes phosphorescent at night." "All we have to do is stick some on Alpha." "Thank to this tracer, we'll be able to follow him from afar, without losing his trail." "So who's the most clever?" "And just how do you plan on sticking that on him without him realizing it?" "But I'm telling you!" "You've got this big thing in your eye!" "What is it?" "A big black thing, and it's all round." "Well, yeah." "It happens to be my eye." "I saw you, Ricky." "What?" "Did you want to sneak up on me and scare me?" "Way to go." "You totally saw me." "You really are the best pilot fish around." "Right, then." "See you later!" "All we have to do is follow him." "Hmm?" "Well, well." "It looks like I still have company." "Uh..." "I wonder if maybe we should do this tomorrow." "Oh, come on, no!" "This is too much fun!" "Don't tell me you wanna give up?" "All right, let's go, then." "Alpha's getting away!" "Oh!" "They should be back by now." "Alpha must've lost them." "That's true." "I've already had enough time to have had three servings of seaweed." "We gotta go tell Sammy." "They might be in danger." "You think?" "Sammy sure won't be happy." "Ricky and Annabel will get punished." "All right." "But let's at least go and let Albert know." "We really need help here, Pipo." "Um, Albert?" "Albert?" "Albert!" "Oh!" "Ow!" "What's going on?" "Ricky and Annabel went off to follow Alpha." "We're super worried." "What?" "But that's pure madness." "They could easily get lost." "And it's far too dangerous out there at night." "Come on, let's go!" "Huh." "Ah, he's going too fast." "I love this game!" "So, you little snoops, starting to tire out?" "Ouch!" "Ah!" "Ah..." "Hey." "Where'd he go?" "Ouch." "Yeah!" "We caught him!" "We won!" "We won!" "Uh, we're sorry, Alpha." "We just wanted to know where you were going." "We know we shouldn't have." "Well, you can say that again." "A secret is a secret." "What's more, I hurt my head because of you." " Sorry, Alpha." " All right." "This is no time for you to be out and about in the ocean." "I'll bring you back to the reef." "Ouch!" "My head..." "Why is he swimming all funny like that?" "We'll never be able to find him in this ink soup." "You're right." "Let's think about this." "When I lost Alpha," "I was at the entrance to the coral cemetery." "Let's go have a look there." "Wait a second." "No, it's more like that way." "Uh..." "Or maybe that way?" "Are you all right, Alpha?" "Yeah, yeah." "Uh, no, in fact, I know it's that way for sure." "I think the bump on his head made him lose his sense of direction." "That's fantastic!" "That means we're gonna have lots more fun!" "Oh!" "Over there!" "Alpha's tracer." "Look." "We found them!" "Yippee!" "I'm gonna be able to go back and have my dessert now." "What in the..." "That means that Ricky and the others got..." "Oh, no!" "Get behind me, you two." "Oh, no!" "There are lots of others!" "It's impossible." "There are too many of them." "And without Alpha to help me, it's too complicated." "We're gonna have to get out of here, fast!" "That way!" "I..." "I'm sorry, children." "This is the first time I've ever got lost anywhere." "I don't get it." "It's nothing." "It'll come back to you." "Breathe deeply." "Open up your gills." "There you go." "You just bumped your head a little, that's all." "No need to get all stressed out." "Yeah, I already feel a whole lot better." "Hey." "That's funny." "I even have the impression I hear Albert." "Huh?" " Hey!" " Guys!" "They're alive!" "Don't stick around here!" "We're being attacked by squids!" "Huh?" "Move it, guys!" "We'll follow you, Alpha!" "Alpha!" "To the left or to the right?" "I don't know." "Alpha, stop thinking and just follow your instincts." "You, go above and we'll take the tunnel!" "Whew!" "We're saved!" "Right, and now we'd like to know where you've been going all these nights." "Ricky, don't be so nosy." "So where do you go?" "All right, come on, I'll take you there." "After all you've been through, I think you deserve to know." "Here it is." "Surprise!" "It's a gift to celebrate the anniversary of the day we met." "A..." "A gift?" "Yeah, and I made it myself." "All that was just for that?" "A gift made of shells?" "You see?" "Sometimes it's worth sticking your nose in other fish's business, especially when it's to help them out." "Pfft." "Yeah, right." "All you did was spoil poor Alpha's surprise." "Come on, let's hurry back before Sammy starts to worry about us being gone." "Yeah." "I'll guide you all back to the reef." "If you're capable of following me, that is." "Yeah!" "The storm was raging harder and harder, but we held on!" "Whoa!" "Awesome!" "And that's how we survived the notorious Bermuda Triangle." "Me, too, I wanna explore the world!" "Huh?" "Jinx!" "I wanna grow seaweed like my mother!" "What about you, Pipo?" "It looks like he didn't find Sammy's story very interesting." "Ah, what's going on?" "What do you wanna do when you grow up?" "Huh?" "I don't know." "Hey!" "Why don't you become a world napping champion?" "Or why not even a professional snorer?" "Pfft!" "Stop being silly." "No, I see you as a seaweed delivery fish, huh, Pipo?" "Boy, oh, boy!" "Why's it so darn important to know what I'm gonna do when I grow up?" "Ah!" "Whoa!" "No need to thank me, Pipo." "Don't worry, I wasn't intending to." "Huh?" "Sorry." "I was in such a hurry." "Apparently, Big Boss can predict the future." "He'll be able to tell me if my tooth is gonna fall out, or not!" "But it's impossible to predict the future!" "Yeah, sounds like another one of Big Boss's scams." "Hang on a second." "If he really can," "Big Boss could tell me what I'm gonna do when I grow up." "Ouch!" "Stop laughing at me like that!" "I'm not stupid," "I'll know if it's a scam or not!" "Big Boss predicted that I'd be the most famous standup comic in the whole ocean!" "So get ready to laugh like you never have before!" "Huh?" "He was right!" " Yeah!" " Huh?" "Not only am I not gonna lose my tooth, but what's more, all the others are gonna grow back!" "Big Boss told me that Norbert, my garden gnome, was gonna talk to me for real!" "All those predictions are nothing but a bunch of hogwash." "Hey, come on!" "It's our turn!" "Listen, I don't have time to lose with a bunch of kids." "What do you want?" "Well, I wanna know what I'm gonna do when I grow up." "Let's see." "I see, that you will get good grades at school, and that you'll have fun with your friends." "Happy?" "Well, no, I'm not." "I wanna know what I'm gonna do when I grow up." "My pal, Ricky, he's gonna be an explorer." "What about me?" "Uh, yeah, well, there you go." "You, too, will be an explorer." "But, uh, not just any explorer." "You'll be the greatest explorer of all the oceans!" "Wow!" "Cool!" "You, the greatest explorer of all the ocean?" "It's true that Pipo isn't a very adventurous type." "It's your move now, guys." "Do you really feel that way, Norbert?" "Yes, Leonard, you're my best friend." "Oh, Norbert," "I've been waiting all my life for this moment." "All right now, get this one, guys." "Why did the whale cross the road?" "Well, to get the other tide!" "Hmm?" "Hmm." "The other tide!" "Would you like another one, my adoring fans?" "This one's just for you!" "Ever hear the one about the mussel, the oyster and the winkle?" "Wait a second." "I haven't told you the punch line!" "How could you ever become an explorer when you hate exploring anything?" "Pfft." "That's nonsense." "I love exploring." "You mean, like you could explore the underwater rift valleys?" "Well, yeah, I could, uh, except that I prefer taking a nap." "Perfect." "Everything's going as planned." "It's time now to move on to phase two of my ingenious plan." "Next!" "Hmm." "I see..." "I see, a beautiful little village..." "Oh, how horrible!" "Wh, wh, wh, what!" "It's gonna be ravaged by a terrible sea quake!" "No!" "Yes!" "Unless, I'm designated as chief of the reef." "Chief of the?" "We'd have to talk to Sammy." "Hmm." "Alas, I see, as well, that Sammy, unfortunately, won't believe in my gift for fortune telling." "He'll carry on as if everything were fine." "Huh?" "Oh!" "Everything Big Boss has predicted has really come true!" "Norbert has begun talking, and Albert already has a tooth that has grown in." "Whoa, that's crazy!" "That means that when I grow up," "I really am going to be the greatest of all explorers!" "Gimme a break." "I mean, Pipo, come on, think about it!" "You?" "Hmm?" "Ding-dong!" "We're back!" "Where's that super meal you promised us?" "We're starving." "Uh, right in front of you." "You'll have to catch me first, you big oafs!" "Bon appetit!" "Ah!" "Give up already?" "Ah!" "Ah!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "It's already begun!" "Huh?" "The seaquake!" "Run for shelter!" "Come on, calm down." "These tremors are far too weak to destroy the village." "There's nothing to be afraid of." "Incredible!" "Big Boss predicted that Sammy would say that!" "Huh?" "Help!" "Ah!" "Don't ask me to do anything ever again." "Well, it looks like it worked." "I'm gonna prove to Ricky that I can be a great explorer." "Ah!" "My friends!" "I came as quick as I could." "I saw in my pearl that you want me to become chief of the reef in order to protect you." "Yeah!" "You have to save the village before it's too late!" "Spare us from all your nonsense, Big Boss." "Everybody's on to your game." "I cannot turn away from my destiny." "I accept your offer." "Long live Big Boss!" "Long live our savior!" "Big Boss, chief of the reef?" "I'd rather not be a part of this." "Hey, guys!" "Pipo has disappeared!" "I think, I know where he is." "All right, well, I'm gonna set up my quarters at the shell school." "I saw in my pearl that that's what you were gonna propose to me." "Hmm..." "I'm gonna bring back something from this hole, and that'll keep Ricky quiet." "Oh!" "That was close!" "Sorry I didn't believe in you, Pipo." "What are you talkin' about?" "You were right." "How could I ever become a great explorer when I can't even go down into a hole?" "Big Boss is sure gonna hear from me, with him and his phony predictions!" "My ingenious plan works like a charm!" "They're so easy to manipulate." "Now's not the time to let our guard down." "If one of my predictions ends up being wrong, they could find out that I made everything up." "Oh." "Hmm?" "When I'm fully settled in as the chief," "I'll just tell them my gift disappeared as fast as it came." "I am such a genius!" "We gotta warn everybody fast!" "Big Boss, a con artist?" "You must be joking." "What are those kids going to invent next?" "Sorry, Albert, but your tooth didn't grow back." "It was Marco who stuck this in while you were sleeping." "It's true that it doesn't really look like a shark's tooth." "And you, Leonard." "Did you actually see the lips of your garden gnome move?" "Uh, uh..." "That's normal." "It's because it was Philip who was talking." "And finally, let's hear a joke from Billy." "Hey, do you know what a mussel with seaweed around its neck is?" "Super Mussel, of course!" "Hmm..." "You are very funny, Billy, but, um, you'd better stick to just one joke a day." "You were right, Sammy." "We never should've trusted Big Boss." "Sorry." "Believe me, it's Big Boss who's gonna be sorry to have taken us for fools." "It needs some major redecorating." "Big Boss?" "Big Boss?" "Huh?" "Albert wants to see you." "Uh, he says it's urgent!" "You were right." "Look!" "All my teeth have grown back." "Thanks, Big Boss." "Uh, don't mention it." "You wanna have a closer look?" "They're nice and solid." "Come and see!" "Uh, later, I, I..." "I gotta go." "Bye!" "Because I'm crabby!" "This is impossible!" "I really do have a gift for fortune telling." "Everything I said came true." "I am extraordinary!" "Does that mean the village is really gonna be destroyed?" " Help!" " Help!" "There's a seaquake!" "There's a seaquake!" " Huh!" " We're all doomed!" "Help!" "Mommy!" "You really fooled them, Pipo." "What an actor!" "Why, yes, of course!" "That's what I'll be when I grow up, an actor!" "Hmm." "I see..." "Nothing." "And then, bam!" "Philip, you'll take Sammy as a hostage." "At the same time, boom!" "Marco, you'll make all the food reserves disappear." "And presto!" "I gain the position of power on top of the coral tree and I'll be king of the reef!" " Got it?" " Huh?" "Hmm?" "Ah!" "Huh?" "Huh?" "Huh?" "Shhh!" "Hmm?" "Alert!" "Alert!" "Hmm?" "Oh!" "Ah?" "Mm-hmm." "Ah..." "You guys are such numbskulls." "You managed to ruin a perfect plan." "Boy, how could you two be so stupid?" "That goes for you too, Jax." "If you all weren't such dingbats," "I would've been the head of the reef a long time ago." "If only you were like me, intelligent, clever." "Unfortunately, there's only one Big Boss in this world." "Biboo?" "Leopold?" "What do you want?" "Relax, cousin." "I've come in peace." "I just wanted inform you of the happy news that I've become a father!" "Hello, Godfather!" "Godfather?" "Hello, Godfather!" "You will accept, won't you?" "Huh?" "All right, listen." "I need to ask you a favor." "No." "I can't take it anymore, Biboo." "I need a break." "So if you'd be so kindly willing to look after my children..." "No!" "Come on." "That's what family's for, isn't it?" "No!" "Just so I can go get a tiny rest at a health spa." "Hmm..." "Aw..." "No." "No." "No." "No." "No!" "It's crazy how much they look just like Big Boss." "Oh, that's it." "I was wondering." "I had the impression I'd already seen them somewhere before." "They even look super intelligent." "They not only look intelligent, they are!" "Oh, all right, Leo." "It's true that you look pretty worn out." "Go get some rest," "I'll look after the little ones." "You, you will?" "Thanks." "You're like a real bro, cuz." "Now be good, my little sweetie pies." "Daddy will be back soon, all right?" "Gna, gna, gna, gna." "That idiot just gave me the perfect minions I finally deserve." "The perfect what?" "I don't understand." "Of course you don't." "You guys never understand anything." "Well, then let me be perfectly clear." "Now that I finally have intelligent beings at my service, you all three are fired!" "Get out!" "But, uh, we already are outside, aren't we?" "Argh!" "Beat it!" "Scram!" "Get outta my sight." "Not you, Jax." "You'll be their nanny." "Yippee!" "It's been far too long that we haven't had a bubble bath." "Oh, no." "It's occupied." "Philip?" "Marco?" "What are you guys doing here?" "Big Boss has gone and replaced us." "He found more clever than we are." "You have to admit that wouldn't be very hard." "And now he's gonna invade the reef without us." "What has Big Boss gone and come up with this time?" "And then pow!" "By the time they figure out what's happened to them, it'll be too late." "And bam, surprise!" "We throw Sammy and all the other turtles out of the reef." "Right, we got it!" "You don't have to spell it out in pictures!" "So when do we begin?" "Hey." "Now show some respect." "Say, "Please, my loving godfather."" "Be quiet." "They're right." "We've not a minute to lose." "Let's begin training this instant." "Aw, they're so cute!" "That's the whole point." "Nobody's gonna be wary of them, and then, bam!" "Big Boss is gonna gain control of the reef." "Except that thankfully, now we know." "And we can go warn everybody." "An army of babies?" "I bet they're adorable." "There's absolutely no need to get all worried over this." "You heard what they said." "There's no reason to be worried." "Oh." "Big Boss's scheme is so evil that even if we warn everybody, nobody'll see it coming." "Well, yes." "We will." "And we're not gonna let them invade the reef without doing anything about it!" "We need you guys to help make Big Boss's plan fail." "Wow, you guys, too, think that all we're good for is to make everything fail, is that it?" "No." "Because this time, it's about making things fail in order to succeed." "Huh?" "If Big Boss fails with the babies, he'll understand that they're not better than you, and you'll be able to get your place back." "Hmm?" "Ah, okay!" "Let's go!" "I said..." "Got you!" "Team Alpha, put down the rocks and get into position!" "Got you!" "Hey." "Where'd they go?" "Take this!" "That's enough!" "That's very bad, what you're doing." "Team Bravo?" "Here, take this!" "Na, na, na, na, na!" "Don't aim for the head." "Not there either." "Calm down!" "Huh?" " I'm hungry!" " Me too!" "Me too!" "Me first!" "Okay, okay." "Fall out." "We'll pick up where we left off tomorrow." "Jax will feed you and then bedtime." "No!" "Not bedtime!" "We're not tired!" "I'm afraid of the dark!" "Hey, if you guys are really good, your godfather will tell you a bedtime story." "Huh?" "...and the little seahorses knew exactly what they had to do, and they went off with a brave heart to conquer the promised reef." "Team Alpha, head for Sammy's house." "Huh?" "Hi there." "My name is Sammy." "Hey, Mister Sammy." "Look!" "A flying starfish!" "Ouch!" "We said, we were just gonna pretend." "No talking with the enemy." "Team Bravo, attack the reserve." "And watch out for the crab guard." " Saw you!" " Ah!" "Now be super cute." "Bat your eyelashes faster." "Lean your heads to the side." "Lean to the other." "Lean!" "Lean!" "Lean!" "Oh, boy, they mean business." "Those little ones are pretty impressive." "When I was their age, all I ever thought of was playing." "Annabel, you're a genius!" "Smiling must only be used in order to deceive your opponent." "It must never be gratuitous." "Hey!" "Get back to your posts." "It's mine!" "I saw it first!" " Give it!" "I deserve it!" " Those little devils." "The spitting image of me when I was their age." "Wow." "All the same, they certainly are pretty aggressive." "The important thing is that with all those toys, they aren't gonna wanna train anymore." "All right now, that's enough." "Stop!" "Stop!" "Ouch!" "Do something!" "Confiscated!" "This toy here will go to the most obedient child once we have gained control over the reef." "Line up." "I'm the one who had it!" "It's not fair!" "Hey!" "Godfa..." "Hush now, little one." "Now you don't cry." "You gotta be quiet." "Are you gonna be a good little boy?" "Aw..." "Philip, watch out!" "Help!" "Help!" "There are intruders!" "Hmm?" "Down with Sammy!" "The reef belongs to us!" "There ya go." "At ease." "They are perfect." "Yeah, it must be in the genes." "All right, hut!" "Bedtime." "Tomorrow is the big day." "What about our goodnight kiss, Godfather?" "When they come back, we'll be here to stop them." "Yeah!" "Hmm?" "Mm-mm-mm." "Mm." "Ah!" "Pipo, Annabel, plan B!" "Hey, Mister Sammy." "Look!" "A shooting starfish!" "But I'm not Sammy." "It doesn't matter." "Attack anyway!" "Round up!" "Round up!" "Yeah!" "Oh!" "They're so cute!" "Huh?" "Huh?" "Hold them back." "What are you two doing there?" "Leave my little ones alone." "Hmm?" "Here, little one, this beautiful object is for you." "You deserve it more than the others." "I want it too!" "I want it too!" "Why him and not me?" "I deserve it more!" "I want it!" "Keep your eye on the objective." "Keep your eye on the objective!" "Failed again, Big Boss." "Maybe next time." "Huh?" "Uh..." "But why?" "Why him and not me?" "Give me that!" "None of you deserve it." "Hey!" "A gift is a gift!" "Bravo, children." "Hurray!" "Big Boss has gained control!" "Hip-hip..." "No, but how could they possibly be that stupid?" "We almost did it." "Bunch of tadpoles." "Hey!" "How dare you speak to them like that?" "Daddy, Daddy!" "All our godfather did was yell at us all the time!" "Yeah, that's true!" "This is the last time I'll ever entrust you with them." "Yeah, well, boohoo!" "See if I care." "Hey." "Can you believe how they dared to..." "Boss!" "Hello there, boss!" "Hmm." "Ah, there you are." "They may not be the brightest fish in the sea, but at least they belong to me." "Come on, hurry up." "I just happen to have a new idea to gain control over Sammy's reef." "So then, Marco, you'll go this way and then..." "The monster, Boss." "I saw it." "It really is alive!" "Course not." "You know that it's just a teddy bear and that you brought it to life." "Big Boss, save us!" "He's come back!" "Big Boss!" "I have come to get you!" "Wait for me, guys!" "And now, the reef is all mine." "Who's got the ring of power now?" "Stop blaming others, and face the facts, Biboo." "You're a loser." "Loser!" "Big Boss!" "Boss, what's going on?" "Are you all right?" "Yeah, uh, I just wanted to test you in case there was an attack." "Very well, you can go back to bed now." "Go on." "Huh?" "I'll never be the village leader!" "Good morning, Boss." "Good morning, Boss." "We're leaving." "But we haven't had our breakfast yet, Boss." "We're leaving forever." "What?" "But what about the reef?" "How are we ever gonna gain control over it if we're no longer here?" "We'll find another one somewhere else." "A better one." "I couldn't care less about this stupid reef." "The turtles can just keep it." "But this was our home sweet home." "I sure am gonna miss it." "Greater things await us." "An immense reef, full of docile fish that obey us." "Huh?" "Yahoo!" "Big Boss is gone!" "Whoo-hoo!" "Yahoo!" "Big Boss is gone!" "Yahoo!" "Big Boss is actually gonna leave us in peace?" "I find that hard to believe." "Sounds like another one of his evil schemes." "Then let's go see." " And nobody here either." " Nothing." "Then it's true, he is really gone." "I've gone off to conquer the seas with my army!" "Oh, wait!" "Did you remember to bring all my night lights?" "Say there, Big Boss." "I hear you're afraid of the dark." "Would you like us to teach you a nursery rhyme?" "Big Boss is no longer a baby." "Would you prefer we turn off the lights?" "No, no, no, no!" "All right, let's hear your silly nursery rhyme." "♪ Of the dark you must know from the start ♪" "♪ There's always light in your heart ♪" "♪ When nighttime embarks ♪" "♪ And you're scared of the dark ♪" "I'm gonna miss Big Boss." "We had fun with him." "What do you say we turn this shipwreck into our new playground?" "We'd no longer have to share the one in the reef with the scorpfish." "Yeah!" "Uh..." "I'm hungry, Boss." "How convenient." "So are we." "Who should we start with?" "I should've stayed in my old shipwreck!" "All this is cause of that silly reef." "Does the little seahorse have one last wish?" "Ah!" "Wait a second." "I have a better idea." "What do you say I showed you the way to a paradise-like reef full of inoffensive and extremely tasty fish?" "I'd say you were lying so as to save your skin." "Uh, I'll take you there." "And in exchange, you let us live." "And if I'm lying, you can eat these guys here." "Huh?" "Hmm?" "Hmm..." "Ah-ha!" "I see you!" "So you found me first." "Once again, it's me who has to be it." "What are you flippers doing here?" "This here is our turf!" "We were here first, stingers!" "Ah!" "The shipwreck is rightfully ours!" "Big Boss, Big Boss would've wanted it so." "Thank you, my little horrors." "The day of my big return up upon the throne," "I won't forget you." "Yeah, right." "Very moving, but, no, we were here first." "I won!" "Nobody found me!" "Oh!" "Look over here." "Do you remember?" "I know how we can decide who'll be the new owners of the shipwreck." "Huh?" "Boss, I heard the barracudas say that they were gonna eat us as an appetizer as soon as we showed them where the reef was." "Boy, oh, boy, Boss, what're we gonna do?" "Don't be silly." "Jax is a nutcase." "He doesn't know what he's talking about." "Those two brutes gave their word." "But, Boss, bad guys lie all the time." "That's all they ever do." "I mean, uh, not you, but, you know what I mean." "Huh?" "Hmm." "I see, a beautiful little village..." "Huh?" "How horrible!" "Wh-wh-what?" "It's gonna be ravaged by a terrible seaquake!" "No!" "They're so easy to manipulate." "Huh?" "And what's more, they'll have the whole reef to themselves once they've eaten everybody." "I'm not gonna let them do this." "The reef belongs to me." "Change of plans." "We're going straight to the shipwreck." "Hey, pals." "It'd be better if we went this way." "It's a shortcut." "If I score, the shipwreck is ours." "Oh, no!" "Hey, he cheated!" "Big Boss is back!" "Oh, and with backup!" "What?" "Boy, oh, boy." "We better clean this mess up before he gets here and sneak out quietly." "This is a shipwreck." "Where's the big paradise-like reef full of tasty fish?" "Just wait and see." "There's a whole bunch of fish inside there." "Huh?" "I told you there were lots of fish in there." "Hang tight, kids, we'll be right there." "Quick!" "Now's the time to escape!" "But what about the kids What do we do, Boss?" "Save those kids?" "What for?" "To play the hero?" "Pfft!" "Me, a hero!" "Huh." "A hero!" "Why, yes!" "I'm gonna become a hero." "Make sure those barracudas don't eat the kids before I get back." "All together now, lift up!" "Oh!" "It, it's stuck!" "Thank goodness." "Weren't we supposed to do something?" "We should wait for Big Boss." "He's the big hero, right?" "All together now!" "Let's do this my way." "Come on, say it." "You missed us already?" "You can't live without us, is that it?" "Children!" "They're in danger!" "In my shipwreck!" "Two barracudas!" "Enormous!" "Yeah, right." "As if we should..." "This time, it's the truth." "Despite all my efforts," "I couldn't fight against those two monsters alone." "I need you guys." "All of you." "Do something, for crying out loud!" "Uh, say there, uh, please don't eat us alive." "We're just tiny little fish." "You'd still be hungry afterwards." "Out of the question." "The seahorse promised us a paradise-like reef full of plenty of fish for us to devour." "Hmm?" "And all we found was you!" "We're doomed!" "Not just yet." "Now!" "Get out of the way!" "The barracudas could wake up any second now!" "It's just that it'd be better to wait for Big Boss." "He's a big hero now, you know." "What about us, guys?" "Will you let us by?" "We're pals." "Follow me, everybody." "Hold on tight, children." "Huh?" "That's right." "And don't let me see you around here ever again!" "Big Boss, I wanna thank you for coming to get us and having wanted to save the children." "Yes." "And you're even welcome to come live in the reef anytime you want." "Oh, please, you're embarrassing me!" "I'm no hero!" "Sammy, Big Boss didn't do anything." "Uh..." "We saved ourselves!" "And what's more, they wouldn't let us out." "The barracudas said you had planned on taking them to an incredible paradise-like reef full of plenty of fish to devour!" "What?" "What a heinous accusation." "And why did they end up in my shipwreck in that case?" "You must've heard wrong!" "Right, my little horrors?" "Huh?" "Big Boss is a liar!" "Come on now." "You're not gonna believe a child, are you?" " Thanks." " They get what they deserve." "But that doesn't mean we're friends now." "It's still the stingers against the flippers." "Right, well, I guess we're leaving again, huh?" "To somewhere bigger, more beautiful?" "More beautiful than my shipwreck?" "No." "We're staying right here until we gain control over the reef and kick the turtles out." "One day, I'll be their leader!" "You hear me?" "Synced by H@w-to-kiLL @subscene."
