[Fernie] "Fernie's new discovery."
And then, the turtle told me
they go up on land to lay their eggs.
-[Flounder gasps] So cool.
-Cool.
[Ariel giggles] That's awesome.
And then I ran out of pages
in my fish facts notebook.
Wow, Fernie,
you must know every fish fact.
I'm sure there's always
something new to discover.
Oh, look! It's my Tantie Chantale!
-Hi, Tantie!
-Hello, my sweet niece.
Hey, kids.
Miss Chantale!
Is that your fish facts notebook?
It sure is, Fernie.
I'm getting ready for a fish fact
show-and-tell at the band stand.
I'm gonna share some of the things
I've learned about Wahoo Fish.
Wahooooooooo!
-Wahooooooooo!
-[all laughing]
What's this drawing?
Is that a seahorse unicorn?
[all] Wow!
It is. Isn't it beautiful?
[all] Ooh!
Yes, but... seahorse unicorns aren't real.
Why do you have a drawing
of a pretend fish
in your fish facts notebook?
That's a very good question, Fernie.
A lot of seafolk don't think
seahorse unicorns are real
because they've never ever seen them.
But seahorse unicorns are real.
-[gasps]
-And used to live in these waters
here in Atlantica, long ago.
-Wow.
-Yes.
-No!
-Yes!
Whoa! I never knew that.
So, if they're real, where did they go?
And have you seen one?
Actually, I saw a seahorse unicorn's horn
over at Pon de Reef Valley.
But they swam away
before I could get closer.
I had no idea they were real.
What color were they?
Did you just see one or a bunch of them?
Ooh, did they have a long horn?
Do you think they only eat
seaberries like your drawing?
[giggles]
So many great questions.
But this drawing is the only clue I have.
I haven't seen one
since that day at Pon de Reef Valley.
So, you're still trying to find one?
Oh, yes. I'm not giving up.
But right now, I have to get ready
for the fish fact show-and-tell.
[tearing]
Maybe you could find the seahorse unicorn.
Really? Me?
I get to try and find
the seahorse unicorn?
Yes, you. You're going to be
a great marine biologist
-when you grow up, right?
-Right!
Just remember, don't give up,
even if it's hard. Okay?
Okay, Miss Chantale! Thank you.
Come on, friends.
It's time to look for a seahorse unicorn!
-This is so exciting!
-[♪ upbeat music playing]

[Fernie] Okay. We made it to Pon De Reef.
Now it's time to find
the seahorse unicorn!
How about we split up and search the area?
Good idea, Ariel! Let's paddle!
[♪ adventurous music playing]
Hmm. Hmm. [gasps]
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
Everyone, over here! Look!
Is that a seahorse unicorn?
It has to be.
[♪ music building up]
[all] Ooh!
[chittering]
[sighs] Oh. It's a regular seahorse.
It's okay, Fernie.
We'll just keep looking.
Right, friends?
-Yeah.
-[in Spanish] Claro que sÃ!
But what if Miss Chantale
only saw a regular seahorse too?
Oh, no!
What if that means
seahorse unicorns aren't real after all?
Fernie, you think my Tantie Chantale
is the greatest marine biologist
in Atlantica, right?
Yeah, of course!
She knows more fish facts
than anyone I know!
So, if Tantie Chantale
knows so many fish facts
and she says that
seahorse unicorns are real, then...
Then, they must be real.
[both gasp, giggle]
You're right. She even said
she saw the seahorse unicorn horn.
Exactly!
And remember what else she said?
Even if it gets hard...
I shouldn't give up.
And I won't.
-[Lucia] Woo! Yeah!
-[Flounder] Yeah! Never give up!
So, what do we do next, Fernie?
Well, Miss Chantale said
this drawing was her only clue.
In this drawing,
the seahorse unicorn is eating seaberries.
And seaberries...
only grow at Soca Sands!
So, that's where we go next.
To Soca Sands to find a seahorse unicorn.
-[♪ adventurous music playing]
-[dolphins squeak]
[Fernie] Now that we're at Soca Sands,
everyone look for a seaberry bush!
[gasps]
I see one.
There!
There isn't much to see here.
Yeah, it's just sand...
and sand... and more sand.
And no seahorse unicorns.
But I can't give up yet.
Look! The seaberries are making a trail!
Since we know
seahorse unicorns eat seaberries,
maybe this trail will lead us to them.
Good thinking, Fernie.
It looks like they go
all the way down this sandy slope.
Well, what are we waiting for?
It's time to slide!
-Whoo-hoo!
-[♪ exciting music playing]
-[Lucia] Yeah.
-[Ariel] This is so fun!
[all] Whoa!
[all laughing]
Look!
That grotto looks just like
the one in the drawing.
I bet they're inside!
-[Flounder] Whoo-hoo!
-[Lucia] Yeah, let's go!
-[Flounder] Hmm.
-The seaberry trail keeps going.
[Flounder chomps] Mmm.
What are you doing, Flounder?
[giggles] Having a snack.
[all giggling]
[chomps] Mmm.
Which way should we go?
Keep following the seaberries!
It's getting kind of dark in here.
We are pretty deep into the grotto.
You want to keep going, Fernie?
I'm okay if you all are.
-[Flounder] Hooray!
-[Ariel] Fin-tastic!
I'm sure the seahorse unicorns
are at the end of this seaberry trail!
[chomps, giggles]
[Ariel] The seaberry trail leads here.
[Lucia] But I don't see
any seahorse unicorns here.
I don't get it.
I thought for sure the seaberries
would lead us to the seahorse unicorns.
I'm sorry I brought you
all this way for nothing.
[♪ poignant music playing]
[sighs]
My Tantie Chantale
said that she tried for a really long time
to find a seahorse unicorn.
And she still hasn't found one.
But she hasn't given up.
She keeps trying.
But I have been trying.
You have! And we're so happy
you haven't given up.
We can always try another day, right?
Yeah. And we still had
a fun adventure, right?
It was a fun adventure.
My favorite part was whoohoo-ing
down the sandy slope!
And I'm not ready to give up.
If you're not ready to give up,
then neither are we.
Right, friends?
[both] Right!
Well, we know
that seahorse unicorns like seaberries.
And there are plenty of seaberries
all over these caves.
So I'm thinking, what if we gather
all the seaberries we can
and pile them up
in the middle of the cavern?
That way, when the seahorse unicorn
gets hungry,
they'll come swimming in,
wanting to eat the seaberry snack.
What do you think?
I think snacks solve everything.
It's a great idea. Let's do it!
-[♪ adventurous music playing]
-[dolphins squeak]
[whispering] Do you see anything yet?
Not yet. Let's keep waiting.
-[Flounder, Ariel gasp]
-What's that light?
-[Fernie] I don't know.
-[♪ magical music playing]
[all gasp]
[♪ triumphant music playing]
A seahorse unicorn!
[all gasp]
[Fernie] They're real!
You did it, Fernie!
You didn't give up
and you found a seahorse unicorn!
I wish Miss Chantale
were here to see this.
Let's see if they want to come with us
so Tantie Chantale can meet them.
That's a great idea, Ariel!
[giggles]
-[chomping]
-[Fernie] Hello.
-[chitters]
-It's fin-tastic to meet you.
Would you like to go with us
to visit our friends?
[chitters]
Great! Let's go.
[seahorse unicorn chitters]
And that's why
the Wahoo Fish like to say...
Waaaa-hooooooo!
-Waaaa-hooooooo!
-[audience exclaiming] Wow.
-[Fernie] Miss Chantale!
-[chitters]
Look what we found!
[audience exclaiming] Wow.
[gasps]
-A seahorse unicorn!
-[chitters]
Fernie, you did it!
-[chitters]
-You found one!
And he didn't give up,
just like you said, Tantie!
I'm so proud of you, Fernie.
Here. I have something for you.
[gasps]
Your marine biologist pin?
That's right! You've earned it.
You're on your way to becoming
a fin-omenal marine biologist!
[all cheering]
-[seahorse unicorn chitters]
-Woo!
[all applauding]
Thank you, Miss Chantale.
And thanks, best fins.
I couldn't have done it without you!
-[chitters]
-[giggles]
[Ariel] "Grotto of Manners."
-[Fernie giggling]
-[Ariel] Duckfish...
-Duckfish...
-[Lucia giggling]
Duckfish...
[giggling]
-Goosefish!
-Whoo-hoo! [giggling]
[Flounder] I'm gonna tag you, Ariel.
Help me, Lucia! Don't let him tag me!
Don't let him tag me!
[all laughing]
[Ariel] You can't catch me!
[all laughing]
-[eel chittering]
-[Ursula] Enjoy your nap, my babies.
[eels snoring]
And a nice quiet nap for me too.
[yawns]
-[Ariel] Tantie Ursula!
-[gasps]
I almost got you, Ariel!
-[Ariel] Hide me, hide me!
-Watch out! I'm gonna tag you!
[playful laughter]
-Better hide. I'm gonna get you.
-[Ariel] You're it!
Now, merlings...
[laughter continues]
-Merlings?
-Tantie Ursula is on my team. [giggles]
Mine too, mine too!
-Huh?
-Then I call Flounder!
-Oh, look! Snacks.
-Hmm?
[chomps] Look at me, I'm flying!
Uh... [snaps fingers]
-[magical sounds]
-[giggling]
[muffled] That flip was too much.
We're just having
so much fun playing, Señorita Ursula!
What should we play next, friends?
-[Fernie] Ooh!
-[sighs]
-Red shell, green shell!
-More duck duck goosefish!
-Cricket!
-[gasps]
Hmm.
You know, I think I have
a new game for you all to play.
-A new game!
-Whoo-hoo!
Yeah! Let's go!
Really? What type of game is it?
Well, it's a game that I'm going to make
especially for you.
-And it's going to be fin-teresting.
-[gasps]
-Magical.
-[gasps]
-Adventurous and fun!
-[giggling]
-Do you want to play?
-I'm in, Tantie!
-Me too!
-[in Spanish] Claro que sÃ!
I love fun! [giggles]
That's the spirit!
Now... here we go!
-[snaps fingers]
-[magical sounds]
-[all gasping]
-[Fernie] Huh?
[Ariel] Where are we?
-I think it's a grotto, Ariel!
-What's a grotto?
It's like a cave.
That's right.
Through that door is a grotto
filled with fun challenges
that are sure to teach you
something important!
And if you make it through all of them,
you'll get a fun surprise at the end!
Ooh! What kind of fun surprise,
Ms. Ursula ma'am?
[chuckles] If I tell you what it is,
it'll ruin the game!
Off I go, merlings!
-Are you ready, friends?
-[all] Ready!
This is gonna be so much fun!
Uh, this door doesn't have a doorknob.
How are we supposed to get through a door
without a doorknob?
Hmm. Flounder to the rescue!
[grunting]
[sighs] Welp, I'm out of ideas.
Hmm. Huh?
I wonder what this does?
-[magical chimes]
-[gasps]
[Voice of Manners] Welcome.
To enter, say the magic word.
Magic word? No problem!
I know lots of magic words!
Abra-clam-dabra!
Hmm. Maybe it's a different magic word.
Zim zam razzle dazzle
flippity flam floppy chip chip
cascadura fin zip zap zownie
swoosh swoosh swish!
-[sighs]
-Whoa, Lucia.
That was a lot of magic words.
But the door still didn't open!
How are we going to play this game
Ms. Ursula made us,
if we can't get inside?
Oh, Grotto, won't you please let us in?
[magical chimes]
[Voice of Manners]
Saying "please" is good manners.
Of course. "Please" is the magic word!
[♪ triumphant music playing]
[all cheering]
-[magical chimes]
-[Voice of Manners] Welcome.
To solve this challenge,
find a way to the next room.
Huh?
Huh?
How are we supposed to find the next room
when there aren't any doors?
Ooh, I know.
What if we try saying "please" again?
Oh! Good thinking, Flounder.
Give it a try!
[clears throat]
Will you please let us into the next room?
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
Maybe we have to do
something different for this challenge.
I think you're right, Ariel.
But what are we supposed to do?
All I see here is a table
with all these snacks.
Well, I say we use the table
to eat a snack
while we think about
what to do next. [chomps]
[all] Good idea, Flounder!
Mmm-mmm.
[muffled] Hmm, what could we try next?
Uh, Flounder?
We can't really understand you.
[muffled] I said I wonder
what we could try next.
Mmm?
Remember, Flounder,
you shouldn't talk with your mouth full.
Uh... [gulps]
Sorry, friends! [chuckles nervously]
Talking with my mouth full
wasn't good manners.
[Voice of Manners] Thank you
for using good table manners.
[all cheering]
So, what happens now?
-[magical sounds]
-[all] Whoa!
[all laughing]
-Whee!
-Yay!
-Whoo-hoo!
-Yeah!
I wonder where we're supposed to go next.
Oh, look! A passageway.
Why don't we see where it leads.
That's a good idea, Ariel.
[Voice of Manners]
Welcome to your last challenge.
If you solve this one,
you will get a fun surprise!
-Yes, we did it!
-Yes!
[all giggling]
And look! This one has a doorknob.
And it's open!
Great, then let's swim through!
[Flounder] Hey! Another door!
[Voice of Manners]
Welcome to your last challenge.
If you solve this one,
you will get a fun surprise!
-Let's go through it.
-Yeah.
[Voice of Manners]
Welcome to your last challenge.
If you solve this one,
you will get a fun surprise!
Hmm... That's strange.
It sure is.
Hmm.
[magical chimes]
[Voice of Manners]
Welcome to your last challenge.
If you solve this one,
you will get a fun surprise!
Why does the voice
keep saying the same thing?
Because I think we're going
through the same door over and over.
So... we're going in circles?
Wait! Let me try something.
Hello! I'm over here.
-Hey! I'm over here now.
-[all gasping]
That was weird.
[panting] Yep. We're going in circles.
Oh, no. How are we
gonna get through, Ariel?
Yeah, I really wanted to get
that surprise at the end.
There has to be a way through!
Tantie Ursula wouldn't have
made this challenge for us
if she didn't think we could do it. Right?
[all] Right.
Come on, friends. Let's figure this out.
All of the challenges so far
have been about manners, right?
Yeah, just like that voice keeps saying!
It's all about good manners.
So why would Señorita Ursula
make us a game about manners?
She did say that the challenges
would teach us something important.
But why is today so special?
I mean, we always use good manners, right?
Well, we did wake up her eels from a nap.
That wasn't good manners.
And we were all talking
over each other instead of one at a time.
That wasn't good manners either.
Then I ate some of her snacks
without asking.
[gasps] That wasn't good manners at all!
[gasps] Jumping jellyfish, that's it!
That's why Tantie made this game for us!
So that we remembered our manners!
Because we weren't using
good manners earlier
when we went into the apothecary.
You're right.
We all owe Ms. Ursula ma'am an apology.
What does it mean for this last challenge?
How do we use good manners here?
Do you remember what's the first thing
we did today that wasn't good manners?
-Uh...
-Hmm.
We swam into the apothecary
without knocking,
even though the door was closed!
Oh, no!
That's not very good manners at all!
Sebastian always says you should knock
before entering a closed door.
So now, here we are at a closed door.
And what do we need to do, friends?
[all] We have to knock!
[knocking on door]
[magical chimes]
[Voice of Manners]
Knocking before entering is good manners.
Whoo-hoo! Yeah, I knew
we could do it. [giggles]
[all cheering]
[Voice of Manners] You may now enter.
-Enjoy your fun surprise!
-[all gasp]
-[magical sounds]
-[all cheering]
-Yeah!
-[all giggling]
[Ariel] Whoa!
-Whoo-hoo!
-[Fernie] Yay!
I love good manners!
Whoo!
-[all laughing]
-[Ariel] Yeah!
-[magical click]
-[♪ triumphant music playing]
[chuckles] Welcome back, merlings!
Did you enjoy the game?
-We sure did.
-So much fun.
Thank you for making
that game for us, Tantie.
We all had so much fun.
We understand why you wanted us
to go through the grotto of manners.
We weren't using very good manners
earlier today.
I'm sorry, Tantie.
-[in Spanish] Lo siento.
-I apologize, Ms. Ursula.
We promise to use better manners
next time we come over.
Thanks, merlings.
And I accept your apology.
I hope you've learned something.
And now that we all remember
how important it is to have good manners,
how about we eat while we take a look
at this! [snaps fingers]
-[magical sounds]
-[merlings laughing]
[Fernie] Look at my face!
-We look so happy.
-And mine!
Uh, Flounder? You okay?
[chomps] Mmm.
[gulps, giggles] Yep!
My mouth was full, so I wanted
to finish my food before I talked.
Because that's good manners!
-It sure is.
-Good job, Flounder.
