[birds sing]

You go find our mysterious swamp man.

We'll finish these repairs.

Are you sure?

We could give you a hand here?

Yeah, it looks like you could use it.

Dad, it's crooked.

We have a level in the toolbox.

Ah, I prefer to eyeball it.

[grunts]

-Anyway, I mean

-[clattering]

Who wants a lemonade?

Yeah, we're totally fine. Go ahead.

Petey will help you

navigate through the swamp.

We don't need that thing.

I can find this hermit guy.

Actually, Alex, why don't you stay here

to watch over Tyler and Celia

in case there's another monster attack?

Um, hello?

We can handle ourselves just fine.

Ouch!

You're right.

I'm definitely needed here.

I can show you

how to use the tool correctly.

Yeah, thanks, but no thanks.

I know how to hammer a nail.

It works better

when you don't hit your thumb.

Ha! Funny. You know what else is funny?

So, I need someone strong to bring

those decking planks from the back

if they're not too heavy for you.

-[both] I'll get them!

-No, me! Get out of the way!

[sighs] I'll take care of things here.

You go and find that swamp man.

[beeping]

[electronic chirping]

Do all swamps smell this swampy?

[Merlinda] How did he know

this was a trident ring?

What does he know

about the pearls?

-Watch out!

-[yelps]

Sasha, you need to be more alert!

I am alert.

[Nerissa strains]

Totally missed that.

[sighs] Traps mean we're getting close,

right?

Affirmative.

From now on, watch your step.

Ah, you worry too much.

[Sasha yells]

-[laughs]

-We all saw that coming.

Who puts a net trap under a net trap?

Even I know that doesn't make sense.

[animals chirp]

[electronic chirping]

I think we found our shack.

We have to move in carefully.

No doubt he'll have this place

rigged with

-[gasps]

-[clattering]

[yelps]

Ah! [laughs]

more traps.

[door creaks]

[floorboard squeaks]

[nervously] This place

just needs a makeover.

Some cute curtains.

A little sunshine.

Uh

Oh Uh

Look at this.

"Darkness will battle light

for the fate of land and sea.

They who become

the power of the pearl

shall the victor be."

It sounds like a prophecy.

[electronic chirping]

[rattling]

Huh?

Huh?

[they gasp]

What are you doing here? This is my shack.

You are trespassing.

Get out. Get out now!

Get out, get out, get out!

Wait. I'm looking

for the owner of this ring.

-Do you know her?

-Where did you get that?

It does not belong to you. Give it.

-Give it to me now!

-Don't even think about it.

-[clanking]

-[Nerissa yells]

-[whimpers]

-[grunts]

[grunts]

[yelps]

I don't want to fight.

I do.

[grunts]

-[grunts]

-[yelps]

[screams]

-Nerissa!

-[grunts]

[gasps] Enough! Where is my mother?

Huh? You are the princess?

-[Nerissa grunts]

-[hermit yells]

Huh?

You're a-a merman!

Who are you? How did you get here?

Please, you must go.

Y-You shouldn't be here. [grunts]

[all] Huh?

Hm. Ah. There you are, my witless beasts.

You best not be returning

without my prize.

[growls]

Excellent. Just one more

of these oyster beds to raid.

I'll have all the pearls

and Mertropia will have none.

You should absorb the power

from these pearls now.

You will be invincible.

I'll absorb them when I'm ready to,

Tempesta.

But first they will serve as bait

for the trap I will lay.

[electronic chirping]

[camera shutter clicks]

For a merman he's pretty obsessed

with the surface world.

It seems like he's looking

for something or someone.

But who is he? How did he get here?

Look at these cute drawings.

They are just like our mer-symbol

for the pearls of Neptune.

[chuckles] Oh, 'cause they are.

He found pearls. Lots of them.

Inside this underwater mountain.

This drawing reminds me of

one of Tyler and Celia's sea charts.

Maybe they can help us find it.

Let's go.

I gotta say, being up close like this

to a volcano is pretty awesome.

Dormant volcano.

It hasn't erupted in 600 years.

And my sister kills the fun again.

[laptop chimes]

That's four passes

using the Silver II radars.

And still no sign of a way inside.

According to our swamp man's map,

he never found one either.

Merlinda, we should let Alex handle it.

If there is an entrance,

his echolocation will find it.

-Hm.

-Sonar power? Really?

Like a dolphin or bat?

Huh! Do you have any special powers?

Uh, I, uh, got Petey.

[electronic chirping]

[laughs weakly]

-Let's dive.

-[call alert]

It's Fred. This could be important.

-[Fred] Yes, I got it.

-Huh?

-What?

-Huh?

Sorry. Hi. I figured out what's wrong

with the bracelets.

The crystals that power them are fried.

I just need some nickel sulfate

to replicate new ones and boop!

Pop them in.

Ah. Now, where would

I find some nickel sulfate?

[they laugh]

[Fred] I feel like I saw some last week.

That's great, Fred. Call us

when you've got some updates. Uh

Fred? Um

I'm going to hang up now.

If I were nickel sulfate where would I be?

Ah! Maybe in the basement.

[door squeaks]

[liquid bubbles]

[footsteps]

What is that?

-[grunts]

-[door rattles]

[strains]

[gasps]

Dad?

Uh, sorry, son.

I didn't mean to scare you, but you need

to stay away from this door.

Understood?

The tunnels on the other side

They're not safe.

Nothing but cave-ins and sinkholes.

-I could lose you forever.

-Are you okay, Dad?

Sure. I'll be better when you're back up

in your lab being a genius.

Gotcha.

Maybe we can get food delivered tonight

or watch a movie together.

-You and me.

-Sounds great. Dad.

You've got a deal.

[to himself] A deal?

A deal I can't refuse.

[intriguing music]

[gasps]

[treasure jingles]

I'm rich. I'm rich! [laughs]

[ghostly whispers] Come to me.

Come to me.

Don't be afraid.

[gasps]

[grunts]

-[ghostly wailing]

-[Mr. Redd yelps]

[ghostly roar]

[whimpers]

[exhales wheezily]

Free at last.

[shudders]

Oh. What do we have here?

Are you a lowly traitor,

thief who set me free?

No. I mean, yes, I set you free.

Are you a genie?

Not quite.

But if you wish to live,

I'll offer you a deal.

[Barbarossa echoing]

A deal you can't refuse.

[exhales]

Are you sure it's here?

[grunts]

[sonar pulses]

There's a tunnel

behind this massive boulder.

I'll take care of that.

You've got it.

Believe in yourself.

Hm.

[rumbling]

[strains]

[all strain]

I'm sensing mermaid magic.

It seems our princess has discovered

the last untouched oyster bed.

No!

[growls]

She must not get her hands

on those pearls.

[snarls]

[Barbarossa] Quickly!

-Yeah!

-Woo-hoo!

[laughs]

If there were pearls here,

wouldn't there be a giant octopus too?

[ferocious snarling]

Uh-oh.

I guess that's a yes on the pearls.

[laughs nervously]

[Nerissa grunts]

[growls]

[grunts]

[Merlinda] The Guardian is not our enemy.

We will not hurt him. Understood?

[both] Watch out!

-[octopus growls]

-[they yell]

No. No! Stop!

Please, stop!

[growls]

Wait! Stop!

Stop!

Don't resist.

[they grunt]

[octopus growls gently]

-Huh?

-What is she doing?

I come from Mertropia.

Queen Corelia was my mother.

[growls inquisitively]

She was your friend.

Hm.

Thank you, Guardian.

I promise the pearls will be safe

with me.

[agreeing growl]

Let's go.

[squeals] Wait. No. Not scared.

[clanging]

[grunts]

Maybe you should sit this one out, Ty.

I'm not sure that machine

is a smart idea down here.

Uh, I appreciate the concern, A-Man,

but I'm good. Real good.

Try to leave a little paint

on your sea-scooter, Tyler.

Ah.

Yes.

I can feel her life force.

It's close.

[laughs evilly]

Look, pearls.

-Oh!

-Wow!

[excited squeal]

They're so beautiful.

Okay, just gather the pearls we need.

We'll take them back to Mertropia

and the kingdom will be saved.

[rumbling]

Huh?

I'll be taking those pearls, Princess.

And your life force too!

We have to defend this place.

[all] Pearl power!

Pearl power ♪

You've got the power to love ♪

You've got the strength to be tough ♪

You've got the magic

When the pearl's by your side ♪

Strong as the ocean's spirit

We unite ♪

[grunts]

[grunts] Protect the pearls!

Over here.

Get those pearls.

-[sea monsters growl]

-Stay back!

He cracked open a lava vent!

It's going to fill the cave!

[laughs]

Looks like I woke her up.

Lightning bolt!

[growls]

I got it!

I got it, I got it!

[grunts]

Here you go, Celia.

[groans]

[grunts]

[growls]

-Nice one.

-Thanks.

Enough!

[they yell]

Watch out!

Tyler!

Climb, you fools!

Climb, climb!

-Grab my hand.

-Grab the pearl.

[groans]

[electronic chirping]

No!

[grunts]

Seriously, dude? One handed?

-Oh, no!

-Forget the pearls.

We've got to get out of here. Follow me.

To the top. Come on.

[grunts] After them!

[growls]

There's no more water here.

I can't use my powers! [grunts]

[growls]

The volcano is going to erupt.

[Barbarossa laughs]

Chris!

[growls] Huh?

Get me out of here.

[roars]

[grunts]

There's too many of them.

[yells]

Alex!

Think, think, think.

Oh, I got it!

Petey! [whistles]

[grunts]

[strained chirping]

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

-Nice.

-Alex, check it out.

Use your sonic boom thing.

-You sure this is gonna work, bro?

-I have no idea.

[laughing] Outstanding! [grunts]

[pulsing]

Jump down!

It's our ride out of here.

Uh, no, it's a rock.

Come on!

-Hang on tight!

-[yelling]

Wave power!

[scoffs]

Bring them to me.

[growls]

[roars]

Uh oh. We've got company!

[growls]

Quick, he's gaining on us.

[growls]

[laughs evilly]

What?

[growls]

Huh? Look.

[grunts]

It's the Guardian. It came to save us.

[growling]

Let me go, you stupid beast!

[Barbarossa] Merlinda!

[groan] If she gets her two cursed pearls

down to her cursed kingdom,

my vengeance could be delayed

by months.

[yells]

[clattering]

[growls]

[sighs]

[snarls]

You! Finally!

Come here!

I need more barrels.

I need a new army. And I need it now.

[coins rattle]

Did you hear me?

Get your gold and get to work!

I'm done with this.

There will be no more toxic drums

coming from my factory.

What did you say?

Our deal is over.

I will not work for

Scurvy dog!

You think you can break our deal

and keep your head on your shoulders?

The deal is off.

[laughs malevolently]

Well, well.

The shivering coward has grown a backbone.

I tip my hat to you, Redd.

I'll have to find my army elsewhere.

Perhaps I'll start with your children.

I'm sure I can turn them

into something useful.

No! You stay away from my family.

If you touch them [grunts]

You'll what?

[laughs evilly]

-[Barbarossa] Redd

-[gasps]

You've been a passable servant

for so many years.

I'm going to give you one last chance.

Bring me 50 barrels of brew

before sunrise, or I'll take your children

and hand them over to Tempesta

to see what she can make of them.

[gasps]

Clock's ticking.

Hey! You forgot your gold.

I guess this batch is on the house.

You rely too much on that human

and his chemicals to bring you victory.

Do you have a better idea

to stop those meddling mermaids

from taking their pearls

back to Mertropia?

Maybe I do, my dashing pirate.

A more creative approach.

[chuckles]

[Barbarossa's laughter echoes]

-They're so pretty.

-Just three pearls to go.

-It's a good start.

-And we didn't burn to death.

I call that a great day.

Mm-hm. I'd call that a win.

I got it! I really got Whoa!

Uh. It's okay.

I fixed it, like, for real.

-Fred.

-Wow!

Good timing.

Fred, you're amazing.

Thank you so much.

[chuckles] Uh. Happy to help.

[beeping]

[laughs]

Merlinda. Is it really you?

Oh, thank the tides, you're okay.

Dad, we have two pearls.

That's wonderful, Merlinda.

What an extraordinary day.

Dad!

[crackling]

Your mother has returned to us.

Look, she's really here.

[gasps] Oh, look at you.

You've grown so much,

I can hardly believe it.

Mom?

Hurry back home, darling.

I want to hold you in my arms again.

[Merlinda] Mom!

Mom. She's alive.
