Meggy and Mario were setting up a nice spot at the beach for some sea creature watching. Bob had lended his boat, except he mainly was using it for fishing instead of observing. Meanwhile, Three and Four were having some trouble persuading Tari to go. "Come on Tari! It will be fun!" Three dragged her across the floor as she scrambled to latch onto something. "There's nothing fun about sharks! Scary? Yes! Fun? No!"

She managed to escape his grasp and run, but Three caught her and continued dragging her to the door. Four tried to convince her with the reason of "But Tari! This is our one chance to see this migration. Do you really want to pass up this opportunity?" She held onto the door as Three kept shoving. "Now that you put it that way, YES!"

"We just don't want you to miss out on this."

"Miss out on what? Sharks? Big, scary, sharp toothed sharks!"

"Well...basically yes."

"Thanks, but no thanks!"

Three shoved a picture in her face and said "Look! We all watched that boring duck migration with you so now it's your turn to watch the shark migration! You owe me for that!" Tari felt her anger rise up as she said one last time "I...said...NO!" She pushed him down and jumped out the window as Four gasped and ran after her, but it was too late. He looked back at Three as he laid there dizzily. "Okay...I'll let you off the hook this time."

They came down where everyone was boarding the boat. Four unfortunately told them how Tari wasn't coming and had ran off. Meggy felt bad, but let it go and Bob took them out to sea. Four studied the water and said "I don't see any sharks." Meggy shook her head and said "Me neither."

"Mario doesn't see any sharkies anywhere!" The two looked unimpressed at him as he was looking down a grappling hook. Three said "We better not have missed them." Four assured him "Nah, we're just a little early that's all. Just remember that we want to watch them without drawing any unnecessary attention to ourselves."

"HELL YEAH FREE FISH!" The crew all turned, startled as Bob came down with a fishing kit and a big hat. "WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY SWEET NEW FISHING ROD? I'M GONNA CATCH DOZENS!" He waved the pole in their faces as Meggy huffed "Shush Bob! You're gonna scare off the fish!" Four told him "It's nice you're taking an interest in this Bob, but could you just do it quietly."

He sighed and plopped down on the edge, whispering "SPOILSPORTS..." Just then, Mario pointed and yelled "Sharks ho! Sharks ho! Mario spies the sharkies!" Everyone scrambled onto the viewing platform as they watched hundreds of sharks swimming by. Mario was interested as he reached his hand in the water. "Oooo Mario wants to pet one." He then felt a sharp pain as a shark bit his finger. Mario began running around screaming as the shark started eating his arm.

Three scoffed and said "Are they gonna do anything else? This is lame." Just then, one shark bumps into another and he tried biting him, but gets slapped out of the water and falls onto the boat. Bob cheers "FREE DINNER!" He scoops it up as the shark tries to bite Three, but he gets out of the way. Meggy smirks and says "Still thinks that's lame Smg3?"

"Okay...maybe not."

Mario finally gets the shark off his arm, as he fixes his crooked fingers and says "These fishies mean business!" Boopkins comes up, wearing a cooking apron and brings out a cart of treats. "You should see my dad. He could deal with them no problem if they gave us trouble!" Mario happily took a plate of spaghetti and Meggy went to grab a cookie. Three began laughing and said "Oh yeah right! Just like his son and his sCaRy apron!" Mario began laughing too as Boopkins said "H-Hey! My dad says I'm the toughest fish he ever met!"

"Yeah the toughest at being a crybaby!" Boopkins sighed sadly as Melony calls over from her seat "Leave him alone Three! Boopkins is a unique fish!" Four helped cheer him up by saying "You don't have to act like the other fish Boopkins." but it had the opposite effect.
