[Kelp reads on-screen text]

Woo-hoo!

-[chuckles]
-[grunting]

Whoa!

Come on, Kelp. Follow me.

I'm trying.

But I feel like
I'm about to flip out!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Which happens a lot
when you're a hoof swimmer
like me.

Hoofs or fins,
you just need practice
to cruise like Cruz.

Which is why
I have a surprise for you.

[giggling]

-Ah.
-[Kelp] Oh, wow.

Hi. Everyone's here.

Yep. It's me, Waverly, and Cups.

But that's not the surprise.

Behold...

[mimicking trumpet]

My Whirlie Water
Obstacle Course.

So you can learn
how to cruise like Cruz.

Whoa.

[Cruz]
It's got a seaweed maze...

sponges to bounce over...

a rock tube to dive into...

and lots of spinny water
to strengthen your swim.

Whoa.

You made all this for me?

Yep, and we're coming with you.

That's great, Scallop.

Thanks, Waverly. Thanks, Cups.

We even made our own swim club.

Right, Waverly? Right, Cups?

[all] The Little Flippers!

So, what do you say?
Is everyone ready
to cruise like Cruz?

Try and stop me.

Huh? Whoa!

Try to stop
your tail is more like it.

Sorry, everybody.

Be careful, Kelp.

That spinny water
has a strong current.

If you don't stay away from it,
you'll get stuck.

I know all about currents.

Last time I got sucked into one,
I found out I was a unicorn.

Which explained a lot.

Like, why I have hooves...
and why I [neighs]

and why I have
a bubble on my head.

And why
I'm not such a good swimmer.

That's okay, Kelp.

We're all here to practice.

We got this.

Now, let's give
that obstacle course a whirl!

Okay.
Let's learn to cruise like Cruz.

-Ready?
-Yeah!

-Ready!
-Yep.

[gibbers]

Now on the count of three,
follow me.

One, two, three!

Let's swim!

The first obstacle
is the Kelp Maze.

Stay close, everyone.

This maze
has a lot of twists and turns.

[gasps, then grunts]

We zig and zag,
and zig and zig and zag.

-You gotta zig and zag...
-[all] We zig and zag...

and zig and zig and zag.

Okay, Little Flippers.

For this hurdle,
we have to swim
under the current.

Huh?

[groaning]

Hey, follow me.

Whoa!

Whee!

Made it! Come on, swimmers!
If I can do it, you can.

We did it!

[giggles]
Great job, Little Flippers.

Kelp, you still in there, buddy?

Yeah. I think I zigged
when I should have zagged.

Uh-oh. I'm going backwards.

[Kelp shouting]

-Oh, no!
-Kelp, try to get
out of the current!

I'm trying!
All hooves, full gallop!

But I'm not strong enough.

I'm gonna have to go
with the flow!

[gasps]

Whoa!

Yeah! You did it, Kelp!

-Did what?
-You made it through the maze.

Oh. So I did.

Great job, Kelp.

Thanks, but my tail
did most of the work.

You're gonna be a great swimmer
and will cruise like Cruz.

We've got more practice
and obstacles to do.

Okay, swimmers,
for the next obstacle,

you've gotta bounce
over these sponges,
just like me.

I cruise like Cruz.

[grunting]

[Scallop] Come on, Kelp.

Here goes.

Whee!

Yeah! Uh-oh.

The current's got me again.

You gotta paddle.
Stay out of the current, Kelp.

Yeah, paddle, Kelp. Paddle!

I am paddling.

But the flow's got me.
And I'm going with it.

Whoa! Whoa.

Yay!

-[Waverly] You did it, Kelp.
-You did it!

No, I didn't.

I didn't bounce.

I bonked.

Ah. Bounce, bonk, close enough.

Just keep practicing,
and soon you'll be
cruising like Cruz.

Are you sure?

Of course I'm sure.

I could teach a snail
to swim if I had to.

And I have.

-Hi, Otis.
-[squeaks] Hello!

Ah. He makes it look so easy.

Time to dive
through the rock tube.

But be careful.
The current in here
can be really fast.

Wait, I don't
have to avoid the current.

I get to go with it this time?

-Yep!
-Excellent.

That, I can do.

The hard part with this obstacle
is the stopping part at the end.

Oh.

Don't worry.
You got this. Just follow me.

I guess I got this.

Yeah! Kelp,
you got this! Let's go!

Yeah! Woo-hoo!

[all] Yeah!

Whoo!

Woo-hoo!

[all whooping]

-Whoa!
-I've got you. I got you.

I don't got you!

[Kelp shouts]

[both grunting]

-Phew.
-Nice bubble, buddy.

'Cause that could've been bad.

[both laughing]

[Cups gibbering
and Scallop laughs]

We all cruised like Cruz.

Wait, where's Waverly?

[grunts] Huh?

Huh?

Whoa! Whee!

[giggles]

Oh, no! Too fast.
I can't stop! [shouting]

-[both] Whoa!
-Here I go!

And now everything is so spinny!

Things just got bad.

Nobody move. I've got this.

I'll save you, Waverly. Whoa!

Nobody else move.

Whoa, whoa...

Okay, my next lesson
is gonna be about listening.

But for now, stay here, Kelp.

I'm gonna try and slow
the spinny water
with my super strong tail.

I'm coming, Little Flippers.
I'll save you.

Correction! I can't save you.

Everyone, just keep paddling.

Whoa, whoa.

Whoa, whoa!

[gibbers]

Kelp, it's all... up... to you!

Me? But how?

I'm not a good swimmer.
I zag when I should zig.

I bonk more than I bounce.
And my brake is a bubble!

[Cruz]
You'll think of something!

[squeaks]

Whoa!

[Otis shouting]

Hang on, everybody.
I know what to do.

I'm coming in to save you.

Come on, flow, let's go!

This is a bit weird,
but stop paddling and grab on.

I'm getting us out of here.

-How?
-The only way I know how.

By going with the flow!

[all shouting]

Woo-hoo. Kelp, you did it!

That was amazing swimming.

-So cool.
-[gibbers]

I thought I was teaching you
how to swim today.

But all I wanna do
is cruise like Kelp!

I wanna cruise like Kelp too.

-Me too.
-[gibbering]

Thanks, guys. That's easy.

My tail and I
like to go with the flow.

Come on, swimmers.

From now on,
we're going with the flow.
