Morning!
Hi! What's fun and exciting today?
Huh? Huh? Huh? - [laughing]
Take it easy, Splash.
- You got a great attitude,
but you wake us up and ask the same thing
every morning.
- Something funandexciting every day
is a lot to ask for.
- Hey, everyone! all: Whoa!
- Have you heard the fun and exciting news today?
- Tell us!
- Word around the reef is...
our pal Melody the fin whale is coming to visit!
- Well, what are we waiting for?
Let's go see Melody while she's here!
Come on, guys! - Yeah!
- Whoo-hoo! - Okay, come on!
- Okay, bye, guys!
Have fun!
- Oh, hello, Splash, Bubbles, Dunk, and Ripple!
I didn't see you there!
all: Hi, Melody!
- I just stopped in to say "hello and "good-bye"!
- Why is "good-bye" right after "hello?"
- I'm on my way somewhere special and far away.
Off to eat my fill of krill.
- Krill? Is that a food?
- It's only my favorite food ever!
Krill are the little tiny creatures
who eat phytoplankton.
Twice a year,
they swarm together in huge numbers.
Enough for whales like me to enjoy!
- Sounds delicious.
- Oh, it is.
- Where can we find some krill around here?
- Yeah, I'd try krill.
- You might not want to try it
when you realize how far away it is.
You have to go to the pole.
- Okay, so we'll go to the pole.
- Yeah. - Where is it?
- I'm heading there right now.
- Well, can we come?
- Well, it's a very long way from here.
- So? We can swim far, right, guys?
- Oh, yeah, of course we can! - Right!
- I'm a very strong swimmer!
- Well, it will take a long time to get there.
- So?
We've got time, right guys?
- Oh, of course we have time! - Right!
- Absolutely! Just tell my Papa.
- It's also extremely cold.
- Uh, so?
We can stay here and wait for Melody
to tell us how it was, right, guys?
- Yeah, we can-- wait, what?
- Uh, wait, huh? - Right. Huh?
- Dunk really doesn't like the cold.
- [chuckles] That's okay.
Migration isn't for everyone.
- So if it's so far away and so cold,
why do you go there?
- The krill is a big reason,
but the best part is the whole migration itself.
- Ooh! Ooh! Uh, what's a "migration?"
- Migration is a long trip I take
from one part of the ocean to the other.
It's my chance to see so many friends and relatives
from all over the world.
- So other whales come to the migration?
- Lots of them,
from all over the ocean.
- It sounds like the trip of a lifetime.
- That's exactly what it is!
Well, I'd better be off.
See you later!
all: Bye, Melody!
- Have fun on your migration vacation!
[laughter]
- I was thinking that maybe we could go
to see the whale migration one day.
- Sure. One day.
- Or, here's another idea.
Let's go today!
- Yeah! - Uh, right now?
- Sure; I mean, it's the one place in the ocean
none of us have ever been to.
- I did have a lot of plans for today.
- Come on, Dunk, I bet all those krill
swarming together would be beautiful.
- I bet seeing that would be akrillof a lifetime!
[laughter] Get it?
Krill? - That's so funny!
- All right. Come on, you guys!
- Okay, come on!
- [laughs]
I don't get it.
- So you've decided to go to the pole, huh?
all: Yep!
- Kind of a migration vacation.
- Did I overhear someone mention migration?
all: Hi, Flo! - Hi, kids.
- Yeah, but migrations are more of a whale thing,
not for fish like us.
- Well, I don't know.
After all, there are other creatures
around the reef who are migratory.
- Like who?
- Ah, let me think.
Uh...
Me!
- Oh.
[laughter]
- Well, I think it'd be fun to go on a migration vacation.
- Flo, remember when we followed you
all over the ocean when you went to lay your eggs?
- That's right.
But the one place we didn't go together
is where Melody is now.
We hawksbill turtles don't go
to the coldest parts of the ocean.
- See?
Thecoldestparts.
- That doesn't mean youshouldn't go, though.
[laughs]
The best part of a migration
is making friends all over the ocean.
- See?
Friends all over the ocean.
- I guess that means we're going, huh?
- Well, we're all part of one big ocean.
Might as well see all the sights it has to offer.

all: Bye, Flo! Thanks!
- So, ready to go to the pole?
- Which way is the pole?
We need to hurry to catch the whale migration.
- Um, okay, I'm not really good with pressure.
Let's see. I know there's a pole that way.
- Got it! - Thank you!
- Let's do this, guys! - Thank you, Wave!
- Of course I think there's another one the other way.
Can that be right?
[upbeat music]
♪
- [gasps] Guys, look!
I think we're here.
[all cheer]
- We're at the pole! - We made it!
- I knew it was cold here, but this is freezing!
- Yeah, well, we probably only can stay
in this freezing water for a little while,
so I guess if we want to find Melody,
uh, well, we better do it pretty quickly.
- I thought there was only one pole, though.
Why are there so many poles?
- Maybe those aren't poles.
- Well, then what are they?
And where are we?
- Well, let's go check it out.
all: Hmm.
Whoa.
- Ooh.
- Ow. - Ow.
[Dunk hisses]
- Uh, why'd you stop, Splash?
- Well, uh, I see something out there.
- [gasps] - Ooh.
- I think it's a fish.
- I hope it's a friendly one.
- [laughs] Hi, guys, I'm Mac.
How's it going? Where're you from?
How long are you gonna be staying?
We don't get a lot of visiting fish in these parts.
- Don't you like guests?
- If by "like guests"
you mean absolutely love them, yes!
Not many other fish enjoy the cold.
- It is a little chilly.
Better keep moving. - Yeah.
You keep moving, friend.
Did you know that swimming in a circle
is just one of the many fun and exciting
outdoor activities we have here in the Antarctic?
- Well, how come you're not cold, Mac?
- Well, I'm an Antarctic mackerel.
My blood was made for these cold waters.
- Is it made of ice or something?
- [laughing] No, no, it's just the opposite.
You see, I have a special liquid
called anti-freeze in my blood,
so my blood could never turn to ice.
[Everyone oohs and ahhs] - How neat!
Your body found a way
to live in this freezing cold water.
- That's right.
Oh, I find it so refreshing!
And you know what the best part is?
Free ice!
Yeah. [laughter]
- Mac, are we at the pole?
- You're awfully close.
- Are these the poles in the water here?
- "The pole" is a place,
but these poles here in the water,
they're called brinicles.
They form when ice crystals are pushed out
in tube shapes from the ocean's salt water.
- So they're frozen salt water?
- Yup, and they can freeze
just about anything that touches them.
We should probably keep our distance.
- [yelps] Uh...
Got it. Backing up.
- [laughs] Come on.
I'll show you around!
- Oh, uh, wait up!
- So, what brings you all to the South Pole?
I'm so happy you're here.
Did I mention we don't get a lot of visiting
fish in these parts?
[laughter] - You did.
- We're actually looking for our friend Melody.
She's a fin whale, and, uh--
South Pole?
Why do you call this the South Pole?
- Oh, that's so we can tell it apart
from the North Pole!
all: Oh. - Oh, see.
Wha?
There's a NorthandSouth Pole?
- Yep. The South Pole is right near here
on a piece of land called Antarctica.
The North Pole is way up North
in the middle of the frozen Arctic Ocean.
- And which one has the krill again?
- They both do, in different seasons.
Right now, the krill is in the Arctic.
But later in the year, it'll be right here
in the good old Antarctic.
- We may have made a mistake. - Yeah.
- You see, we were looking for
our friend Melody the fin whale.
- Yeah, she was gonna migrate to find the krill at the pole.
- Oh, this might be one of those, uh...
good news/bad news type of situations.
The bad news is, the North Pole
has all the krill right now.
But the good news is,
we've got some amazing creatures
right here in the South Pole for you to meet.
- Who are the amazing creatures?
- Well, I don't like to brag,
but you're looking at one.
[laughter]
- You are pretty amazing, Mac.
You never freeze here in the Antarctic.
- That's true.
And there's another creature
you'll want to meet while you're here:
a penguin!
all: Ooh!
- Penguins?
Where can we find those?
- Well, I'll tell you.
- I'm glad we came on this migration vacation.
- [chuckles] Yeah. Me, too.
I'm ready to go to the North Pole.
But first, I want to meet a penguin.
- Oh, I can't wait!
- Does anyone know what a penguin looks like?
- Uh... - No.
- Huh. - Hmm.
- And now it's time to... all: Get your feet wet!
- Am I old enough to be an ocean explorer?
- You can explore the ocean.

I'm six years old.

So, everyone, what's your favorite part
of our migration vacation?
- I can't answer that one yet, 'cause it's not finished!
[laughter] - True.
We haven't even been to the Arctic at all yet.
Well, we have a long way to go!
- Yeah, I still can't believe
Wave sent us to the South Pole
when Melody is at the North Pole for her migration.
- You know, with Wave and his eight tentacles,
sometimes I can't tell if he's pointing somewhere
or just scratching his head.
[laughter]
- Or both!
- You know, maybe it's a good thing
Wave gave us the wrong directions.
- Uh, you mean because we're getting to explore
a part of the world we wouldn't have ever been to?
- That, and--
- And we got to meet Mac the Antarctic mackerel,
who never gets cold in icy water.
- Yes, and-- - And we get to see Antarctica.
- Yes, and-- I just wanna see a penguin!
- Oh, yeah. We all do!
Whatever a penguin is.
- Yeah, actually, what is a penguin?
- We were so busy,
I forgot to ask Mac about penguins.
Well, we'll just have to figure it out for ourselves.
- Yeah. - None of us has ever seen one,
so how do we know what we're looking for?
- Maybe it's a huge fish.
- Oh! Or a tiny little crab?
- Or--or, wait. It could even be a big,
giant monster squid with a shark body.
[laughter]
- Oh! - Oh,
Sorry, Dunk.
- All right, everyone, let's calm down.
- Uh, well, Dunk,
I'm sure penguins aren't dangerous or scary,
or Mac wouldn't have sent us to meet one.
Let's all just keep looking.
- Okay.
- Sure.
Maybe we'll find a fish who will
come and tell us more about penguins.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
[water splashes] Now that you mention it,
I haven't seen any fish around here at all.
- Me either.
[water whooshes]
- [gasps] What was that?
A big monster giant squid attached to a shark?
[water whooshes] - Ooh!
Well, I don't know, but I'm pretty sure
monster squid don't move like that.
- Hello! all: Whoa!
- What are your names? Where are you from?
I've never seen you here before.
- Well, hi! I'm Splash,
and these are my friends Bubbles, Dunk, and Ripple.
all: Hi!
- Yeah. We're from far away in Reeftown.
- Well, hello there! I'm Pebbles.
I'm from here in Antarctica.
Are you here on vacation? - Sort of.
We're looking for our friend Melody.
She's a fin whale on migration.
- But we accidentally came to the South Pole
instead of the North Pole.
- Yeah, and now we really want to
meet a penguin before we go.
- You do? - Yeah.
Want to help us look for one?
- Sure do!
- Oh, great!
Well, come on.
- Yeah! Let's do this.
- So, which penguin are you looking for?
- We don't know.
We've never met one. - Okay, well,
let me know when you figure it out.
- Yeah. - Wait!
Have you ever met a penguin?
- Sure!
Lots of them! - [gasps]
What do they look like?
- Well, they're really neat.
They're black and white birds,
and they can dive and glide underwater.
- Wait a minute.
You're black and white.
- Yep.
- And you have bird feet and a beak.
- Yep, yep to both, last time I checked.
- And you glide pretty gracefully.
- Why, thank you. I've been practicing.
- Uh, say, Pebbles,
by any chance, areyoua penguin?
- I sure am!
- So--so--so--so you'reactually apenguin?
Why didn't you say so?
- Well, you said you wanted to meetapenguin.
I didn't know that penguin was me!
[laughter] Come on!
I'll show you where I live.
- Oh, boy! - Here we go!
- Oh, my goodness! - A penguin!
- Well, my home is up there, on top of this iceberg.
I go on land to breathe air and to sleep.
- Pebbles?
How do you stay warm in the cold water?
Do you have anti-freeze in your blood?
- You must have met my friend Mac.
He's an Antarctic mackerel.
- Yup, he's the one who told us about penguins.
- Yeah. Um, Pebbles,
if you're a bird, why are you under water?
- Yeah, aren't birds supposed to fly
way up above the surface?
- Well, usually.
But penguins like me are a special kind of bird.
We're birds who can also swim like fish.
- But, well...
you don't have scales like I do.
- No, we penguins have feathers that
keep us warm in the water so we can dive and swim.
Here. Take a look.
- Oh, really? Cool!
Huh. Ah, let's see.
Um...
Mm. - Ah.
- Ooh! Hey, they're soft!
- They are?
- Well, I don't mean to brag,
but gentoo penguins are the fastest swimmers
of all the penguins.
- Really?
- Okay, maybe just a little bragging.
Watch this!
- Okay.
- [gasps] - Whoa!
- Wow! Amazing! - She's so fast!
- [laughs] Oh, wow!
Pebbles, you swim so well for a bird!
- I need to, since I can't fly like most other birds.
- Why can't you fly, Pebbles?
- Well, let's see.
Where do I start:
tiny feathers, heavy bones,
wings shaped like fins?
- Well, sounds like you were made to swim and dive
right here in the Antarctic.
- I think it's a pretty nice life.
- I bet it would be fun to be a penguin.
Whoo-hoo!
- [laughing]
Oh, that's pretty good, Bubbles.
I bet it would be fun to live where you come from.
- Oh, you mean Reeftown?
Yeah, it's a very special coral reef
filled with wonderful creatures and beautiful sights.
- And warm water.
- Yeah. - That too.
- Well, that does sound amazing,
but I'm glad to be a penguin,
because there's something special coming up
that I'm excited about.
- What is it?
- Well, it actually has to do with my name,
Pebbles.
- You're excited about a pebble?
- That's right.
But not just any pebble.
A very special one.
- I know exactly what you mean.
I love pebbles, too.
I have a special lucky pebble at home.
- Oh, so you know what I'm talking about?
- I sure do.
In fact, back at Reeftown,
I have a whole pebble and rock collection.
I keep them in my cave.
And when I take them out,
I do it one at a time
so they don't get out of order, and--
Uh... but it's, uh...
really not that big of a deal.
- That is very interesting, Dunk.
- I knew you'd understand, Pebbles.
Great name, by the way.
- So, uh, what's special about your pebble?
- Well, it's going to be part of a nest.
- A nest? - Yes.
You see, when a female gentoo penguin grows up,
they choose a male penguin
to be their best friend and partner.
And they build a nest together
to live in for the rest of their lives.
- Wow, so you always have someone to play with?
- I do!
- Where do the pebbles come in?
- Well, when the male gentoo penguin
helps build the nest,
he looks for the smoothest,
shiniest, most special pebble.
- To put in the nest?
- Yes, except instead of putting it in the nest,
he gives it to the female as a gift.
- Wow.
- And when the female gentoo penguin
accepts that pebble,
she and the male penguin become partners
and best friends for life.
all: Wow. - Aww.
I love that story.
- I wanna hear it again.
- [laughs]
You know, uh, having a best friend
is something we know about, too.
- That's right, 'cause we're all best friends.
- Yeah! [laughter]

- Glide!
We've known each other
since we were little chicks.
- I was thinking about building a nest,
and I wanted to give you this.
- [whispers] Is that the pebble she's been waiting for?
- [whispers] I think it is.

together!
- And this pebble will be the perfect way to start.

- Whoa! - Okay.
- All right, you guys, here we are!
Welcome to the Arctic!
- Wow. - Okay.
- Or at least I hope it's the Arctic.
- Um, yeah, oh. - Let's see.
- Okay!
- Well, this place certainly looks as cold as Antarctica,
but they don't really look alike.
- Yeah, it looks like the surface of the water here
is just covered with ice.
- But this ice looks different than the ice in the Antarctic.
It's covered in something.
Hmm.
Wait a minute.
This ice is covered in algae!
- What? Algae? Hmm.
Well, that's why there's krill here, I guess.
They probably eat the algae.
- Wait!
That must mean Melody is around here somewhere.
- Oh. - Yeah, let's go look!
- Yeah! - Okay.
- Well, it's official.
We've been looking all day
and have found exactly zero creatures.
- Yeah, but look at the bright side.
If we're looking for ice, we found it.
[gasps] Oh, hey guys.
I think I saw something, and it was big.
It looked like a whale.
[all gasp]
- It could be Melody. - Yeah.
- With a horn on its head?
- Where'd he go? - Yeah, a horn on its head?
Are you sure?
- Well, I don't know,
but it looked like a horn.
I do know whatever it was,
it was very big and very fast.
- Well, Melody is big and fast.
- That's right.
And if you just saw this creature, Dunk,
then it must be close.
- [gasps] Maybe closer than you think!
- [gasps] - Come on!
- Oh, okay.
- Huh? - Oh.
- Hey, it was just here, and then it left again.
Where'd it go?
- [whistling] [all gasp]
- I don't know, but something tells me
if we follow that whistle, we'll find out.
- Yeah! - Come on!
- Come on.
- We must be getting close.
Now where is it?
- Maybe we should just start looking somewhere else.
I mean, whatever this creature is,
clearly it does not want to be found.
[all gasp]
It's almost like it's hiding from us.
- Uh, Bubbles, behind you.
- Whoa!
Whoa! [laughing]
Wow.
- Wow, Dunk, you were right.
This creature is huge.
- Yeah, and wow, it really does have a horn on its head.
Hi, I'm Bubbles.
- Oh, whoa, hey-- - Wait, we just wanted to--
- Oh.
Oh, I knew it was hiding from us.
Why don't you think he wants to meet us?
- Oh, I'm not sure, but, well, it's okay.
We're here to find Melody anyway, right?
- Yeah, but as Reeftown Rangers,
it's always exciting to meet a new creature,
especially one as interesting as that.
- True, and that whistle was beautiful.
- And I'd love to meet a creature
with a horn on his head.
That was amazing!
- Well, it would be pretty neat to see it again,
whatever it was.
- Uh, I don't think that's gonna be a problem.
all: Whoa!
- There he goes again.
- [clicking]
[grunts]
- Wow.
- Sorry for swimming through
and breaking all this ice around you.
- Oh, well, that's no problem at all.
- Yeah, we kinda like it.
- Yeah, it was amazing!
- I've never seen anything like that before.
You broke all that ice by yourself.
- Oh, shucks, it was nothing.
It's just what we narwhals do to breathe.
Whistler's my name,
breaking ice is my game.
- Whistler?
Oh, that's a great name.
- Thanks. I like it too,
if I do say so myself.
- Uh, wait, did you say narwhal?
Well, I've been all over the ocean,
and I've never heard of a narwhal before.
- Yeah, me neither.
- Well, it's very rare to see narwhals out and about,
especially me.
I tend to keep to myself,
because we narwhals look a bit different.
- Different? Do you mean your horn?
- Well, that's part of it, but this isn't a horn.
It's actually a tooth called a tusk.
- A tooth?
Why isn't it in your mouth?
- Because I don't use it for chewing.
We use it to sense changes in the water,
but really it's mostly there for show.
- It is pretty snazzy.
- Oh, do you really think so?
all: Yeah!
- I guess it is, isn't it?
Be right back, kids.
I gotta breathe again.
Coming through!
all: Whoa!
[laughter] - He's amazing!
- [clicking]
[grunts]
Sorry about that, kids.
- Oh, no problem.
I was just enjoying listening to your whistle again.
- Really? You like my whistle?
Hmm, you don't find it sort of whistle-y?
- No, I love it.
What does it mean?
- Oh, well, we narwhals use whistles and clicks...
[clicking]
to communicate with each other.
- Whoa, kinda like dolphins.
- You got it.
Of course I also use my whistle
when I'm about to break the ice.
So it's a way of saying, "Coming through!"
'Cause I don't want anybody to get hurt by my tusk.
Hmm, watch.
[upbeat music]
[clicking]
[grunts]
- I can never see that too many times.
- Me either. You know what, Whistler?
You may not have been who we were looking for,
but, boy, am I sure glad to meet you.
- Yeah, at first we thought you were like a friend of ours
who's a fin whale,
but now we see you're something much different.
- Yeah.
- Oh, what's the matter, Whistler?
- So you kids do think I'm different after all?
- Well, yeah, but is that bad?
- Well, narwhals are just like other whales
in a lot of ways,
except for this silly tusk on my head
and my whistle of course.
- But, Whistler, well, those are things
that make you, uh--
- Make me different, I know!
That's why I was avoiding you kids earlier.
I didn't want you to see my tusk or hear my whistle.
- Oh, I was gonna say those things are exactly
what make you, you.
- Yeah, like I was saying before,
being different isn't a bad thing.
Um, I think you should think of yourself as unique.
- And amazing!
- You got that right!
I don't know of anyone else
with a sweet tusk like that on their head.
Not to mention, one that can break
thick sheets of ice with their backs!
- Yeah.
- Huh, you kids really think so?
- No, I don't think so.
I know so!
[laughter] - Yeah, so do I!
- Well, you kids are making me see things in a different light.
For years, I've been hiding away from everyone
because of the way I look and talk,
but maybe it's time I strut my stuff.
- Yeah, for sure.
You should get out there and meet
as many creatures as you can.
We're ocean explorers,
and even we didn't know about narwhals.
- Yeah, and that just makes us feel lucky
to have met you, Whistler.
- Yeah. - Oh, what a trip this has been.
We've already been to the North Pole
and the South Pole.
- And again, we've met a friend
that we didn't even know existed.
- Yeah!
- Whoa!

I never asked what brings you kids to the Arctic.
- Oh, well, we're here looking for our friend, Melody.
Um, oh, you haven't seen her, have you?
- Oh, afraid not.
One of the downsides of keeping to yourself
is not seeing many other creatures.
- Well, if she were around here, you couldn't miss her.
Melody is a giant fin whale.
- Oh, fin whale, eh?
I'm sure she's here for the krill that feed of
the phytoplankton bloom.
All the whales are down there right now.
- Oh. - Really?
Do you know where it is?
- Sure do.
It's just right up ahead.
Keep going the way you're going,
and you can't miss it. - Oh, great!
Well, thanks, Whistler. - Don't mention it.
I'd go with you, but I just can't wait
to show all my narwhal friends
the new and improved Whistler.
[laughter]
- All right! - Look at him go!
Look at him go. - All right, yeah, Whistler!
- Good luck finding your friend, kids.
It was great to meet you.
- You too, Whistler.
- And thanks again for helping me get my swagger.
- Nah, it was always there, Whistler.
We just helped you find it.
- Aw, shucks. Thanks, Splash.
You and the kids come back and see me sometime.
[laughter] - Oh, we will.
all: Bye, Whistler!
- Bye! - See you later!
- Let's go. - Let's go find, Melody.
- Melody, here we come!
- Yeah!
- And now it's time to... all: Get your feet wet!
- Is the moray eel a fish?
- Yes, it is.

of different shapes and sizes.

- Whoa! There's a lot of fish.
- This has been "Get Your Feet Wet"!
- We've been swimming for a long time,
and the sun is still out.
- Oh, well, that's because
the phytoplankton bloom is in the summer,
and I remember from my travels around the ocean
that here in the north in the Arctic,
the sun never goes down in the summer.
all: Wow. - Yeah.
- So are we almost at the big krill
where the phytoplankton bloom?
- Oh, I hope so.
Whistler said it was right up here.
- Melody's gonna be so excited to see us!
[laughter]
- How will we know when we get there?
- Well-- - [gasps]
- Is there something we should be looking for?
- I'm guessing that. - Huh?
- Whoa. - Oh.
- How many krill are there?
- A lot, that's for sure.
- This must be why whales from all over the world
come over here to feed right now.
- Yeah, it's like an all-you-can-eat buffet.
[laughter] - Yeah.
- Oh, hey, I see some whales
that look like Melody over there.
- Oh. - Come on, guys.
She must be here somewhere. - Oh, I hope so.
[whales vocalizing]
- I know we haven't found Melody yet,
but I am so glad we decided to on this migration.
- Yeah, me too.
We've seen so many incredible things,
but, ah, this may be the best yet!
- Yeah. - I know!
Only in the ocean could you see something so amazing.
- Yeah!

- These whales certainly seem hungry.
- Yeah, and none of them seem to be Melody.
- Oh, oh, wait! Maybe--
Oh, nope.
Sorry, sir!
[laughter]
- Oh, wow, who knew there were so many giant whales
in the ocean.
- Yeah, but what if we came all this way,
and she isn't here?
Or what if she's here and we can't find her?
- Yeah, Dunk is right.
I mean, Melody is usually pretty easy to find,
being -feet long and everything,
but there are huge whales
and giant tails everywhere around here.
- Yeah, just like... [gasps]
this one!
- What? all: Whoa!
- Hey, you're not krill.
I'd recognize that puffing anywhere.
Dunk, is that you?
all: Melody!
- Hey, Splash, Bubbles, Ripple.
How did you kids get all the way up here?
- Well, we swam all the way here
so we could go on a migration.
- Just like you!
- Wow, and this migration was even a little far for me.
With all this melting ice,
it seems like I have to keep going further and further
into the Arctic every year to find cold enough water
to get my food.
- Uh, this water seems pretty cold to us.
- Yeah, it's just like the water in the Antarctic.
- Wait, you kids went to the Arctic and the Antarctic?
- We sure did!
My mistake, but it still counts.
- So you went from Reeftown to the South Pole
and all the way back up to the North Pole, huh?
- That's right.
And we met a fish
who has antifreeze in his blood.
- And we met a penguin.
- Ooh, and a narwhal. - Wow.
- And then we met the best creature of all.
- Oh, and who was that? - Well, you, silly.
- Well, I guess you saved the best for last then, huh?
- Yeah. [laughter]
all: Whoa!
- Oh, sorry about that, kids.
And sorry for almost gulping you up in my baleen earlier.
I got so excited thinking about all that yummy krill up there
that I didn't see you at first.
- Um, Melody, I gotta ask,
how come a big whale like you
wants to eat all this teeny-tiny krill.
- It's all part of the food chain.
Come on, I'll show you. - Okay.
- Okay, cool.
- You see kids, this ice is the start
of the Arctic food chain.
- Oh, you mean the algae on the ice?
- You got it.
The krill and other plankton come here to feed on the algae,
and we whales and other large ocean creatures
come to feed on it.
- It's almost like the small stuff
gets eaten by something bigger,
which gets eaten by something bigger.
- And on and on,
all the way up the food chain with whales like you.
- The top of the food chain in this area
is made up of large creatures like fin whales
or orca whales or even humpback whales,
who are known as the singers of the sea.
- The singers of the sea?
Oh, I love music!
- If you kids love music, then you found me
just in time for my favorite part of my migration,
the concert under the ice.
- Wow! A concert!
- Yes, full of beautiful music.
If we hurry, we may still be able to catch the end of it
before the humpbacks head back south and--
Hello, kids?
- Oh, uh, over here.
- Oh, where are you going?
- To find the humpbacks.
- Oh, well, they're this way.
- Ah! - [stammering]
- We knew that. - Yeah, we knew that.
[humpbacks singing]
- Is it them? It must be them.
I'll bet it's them. Is that them?
- It sure is, Ripple.
- Well, and if we can hear them, then they must be close.
- Well, not necessarily, Splash.
The songs of the humpback whale
can be heard up to miles away from where they're being sung.
[humpbacks singing] - Oh, there it is.
There it is!
- Or not.
Hey, Ludwig, these are my friends,
Splash, Bubbles, Dunk and Ripple.
- Oh, yeah, nice to meet you.
I'm sorry about the singing.
You need me to stop with all the noisy noise?
- Stop? No!
- Yeah, we love your music, sir.
Especially Ripple. - Oh. Oh, yeah.
I can't believe such beautiful, elegant music
comes from such a huge creature.
- [laughing] Yeah.
We humpbacks are known for our long, complex songs,
famous throughout the ocean.
But it's fine, you know? It's not big deal.
- No, sir.
It is a very big deal!
- Yeah. I mean, yes.
- You know, I've been working on a new song,
and I think I now know what to call it.
[all gasp] "A Song for Ripple."
- Oh!
- Would you all like to hear it?
- Yes! - Well, yeah!
- Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
- Okay, okay, but listen.
I'm all filled up with krill,
so if you all want to travel with me,
I sing it for you, okay?
I know you'll love it, but it's fine, you know?
It's no big deal.
- Okay, okay, okay. - Yeah.
- Wow.
All right, well, we're about to head back down south ourselves,
but how will we keep up with a giant humpback whale
like you to hear the song?
- Oh, yeah, don't you worry your tiny little fins off.
I may be huge, but I'm a much better singer
than I am a swimmer.
You'll be fine. No big deal.
- Don't forget, Ludwig's songs can be heard
for up to miles from where he's singing.
- Yeah, so if you fall a little behind,
it's A-okay.
All right, here is Ludwig's latest song
in a personal concert just for you.
[laughs] But hey, it's fine.
It's no big deal.
[laughter]
[Ludwig singing]
- Wow.
- The song!
- It's beautiful.
- Whoa. - I love it.
[singing continues]
♪
[laughter]
♪
- Bye, kids.
And before I go,
here is the big finish.
[singing flourishes]
- Wow! - Wow! Bye, Ludwig!
- That is so loud! - See you next time!
- Bye-bye. - Bye, Ludwig.
- Whoo!
- And then he was like
[imitates Ludwig singing]
[laughter]
"Ooh, yeah, it's fine. It's like no big deal."
[laughter]
- Sounds like you kids had quite a trip.
- Oh, that was no trip. That was a migration!
And trust me, I know a little something
about migration.
- Oh, it sure was.
And it was a great migration.
I just wish it didn't have to end,
because who knows when we'll hear
Ludwig's music again.
- Oh, Ripple, I'm sorry you won't get to hear
your song again, but if it's music that you want,
well, you don't have to go all the way to the Arctic.
- That's right. You know, there's plenty
of music to be heard right here in Reeftown.
- Really? - Oh, hit it, boys.
[upbeat music]
- Yeah. - This is great!
- Whoo! - Here we go!

Reeftown is awesome!
- That's what I'm talking about.
[laughs]
- Hey, it's me, Ripple.
How would you like to eat as much as you wanted?
Well, that would hurt your stomachs,
but Barbour's seahorses like medon't have stomachs,
which means we're always a little hungry
and have to keep eating lots of yummy food all the time.
Seahorses have a very strong grip.
We can grab onto things with our tails,
just like you do with your hands.
So if a strong tide comes in,
we just grab on to something so we won't float away.
See? Whoo-hoo!
- Hi, kids, it's Melody.
I'll be you're growing every day, right?
Well, even when you're grown-ups,
you'll never be as big as fin whales.
Fin whales have long, slender bodies
that can measure up to -feet long
and weigh as much as tons,
making us the second largest mammals
in the history of the world,
competing with the largest of the dinosaurs.
In fact, the only living creature
who is bigger than a fin whale
is my close relative, the blue whale.
- Hi, it's me, Splash.
Fish usually get around by swimming,
but if you really want to get somewhere fast,
you can catch a current.
A current is almost like a highway under the sea,
helping all kinds of creatures
travel just about anywhere they want to go.
since the currents all connect to one another,
creatures can use them
to travel all around the one big ocean.
But if you're not much of a traveler, don't worry.
Currents are great for taking short trips too.
I'm gonna take one right now. See you later, bye!
