[strums guitar]

That was clam-azing, friends.

-Oh, look.
-[gasps]

it's Jewels, Remy, Cal, and Bembe.

Hey, everybody.

That song was so cool.

You were great, Ariel.

Yeah. Fernie was jamming out

-on the djembe...
-[giggles]

...and then Lucia
was like "whoa" on the guiro.

-[chuckles]
-And Flounder on those maracas,

-just wow!
-[giggles]

How do you make such beautiful music?

Well, when you play in a band,

you have to listen
to each other and work together.

And then you can make beautiful music.

Like this!

-[giggles]
-[♪ all playing upbeat tune]

[all giggle]

Wow. I wish we could play together

-in a band like that.
-Mmm-hmm.

Well, why don't you try?

There's no reason why you all
can't start your own band.

Really? We can do that?

Of course you can!

Okay, then let's start a band.

[both] Yeah!

We're gonna start a band!

-Let's do it!
-Whoo!

[all in sing-song voices]
♪ We're gonna start a band ♪

♪ We're gonna start a band ♪

♪ We're gonna start a band
We're-- ♪

We don't know how to start a band.

That's okay. We can help you.

[all in sing-song voices]
♪ They're gonna help us start a band ♪

♪ They're gonna help us start a band ♪

Okay, time to start a band.

First things first,
you'll need to pick a name.

A name?

But I've already got a name.
It's Remy.

Ooh. But if I had
to pick a different name,

I'd pick Ernesto. [chuckles]

I wanna pick a name, too.

I'll be Fernie.

Huh? [giggles]

That's my name.

-It's a good name.
-[giggles]

[both giggle]

No, no. Ariel means you need
to pick a name for your band.

That's what you'll call yourselves
when you all play music together.

-Our band is called Ariel and the Fins.
-[giggles]

Why don't you all pick one that you like?

[all] Huh?

-Um...
-Uh...

-Hmm...
-Um...

-[Remy blows raspberry]
-Uh...

Ooh...

How about we call our band

The Little Fins?

[all] We love The Little Fins!

-[giggles]
-Great band name, Bembe.

All right, then.
You'll be The Little Fins. [chuckles]

[all cheering]

This is gonna be easy-peasy sea-breezy.

Wow.

Look at all those instruments.

Before you can start playing a song,

you'll each need to pick an instrument.

Maybe one you've played before.

Ooh, I'm gonna play the guitar,

just like Cousin Ariel.

-[strums dissonant chord]
-[exclaims]

[gasps]

I'll play the djembe drum.

It's the guiro for me!

Maracas! Shake, shake, shake.

Great. Now everyone has their instruments.

The next step is coming up with a song.

-One thing you wanna keep in mind is--
-[Bembe] Wait.

[both] We wanna switch instruments.

-[strumming dissonant chords]
-[playing out of time]

Bembe, do you know how to play guitar?

Nope. But I just wanna try it.

Oh. Okay.

Well, I'm glad you two are playing
the instruments you want now.

Anyways, the thing about songs

-is that--
-Can I try the drums?

Only if you let me shake the maracas.

Ooh, let me try, too.

[all chattering indistinctly]

Wait, I wanna try the steel pan.

[gasps] That looks like fun.

I wanna try the steel pan, too.

Me three.

Phew.

[steel pan sounding]

Well, they are loud.

[Flounder] Huh?

I can't hear you because they're so loud!

[strikes electric chord]

I'm so glad you're all having fun,

and I love playing
different instruments, too,

but if you wanna make beautiful music,

maybe each of you should pick
one instrument to play.

-Mmm-hmm.
-Okay.

Okay. So on the count of three,

let's all say what instrument
we want to play.

One, two, three.

[al] Steel pan!

[steel pan sounding]

Maybe this is gonna be harder
than I thought.

Okay, it took a little while,

but everyone has picked their instruments.

So now, it's time to figure out

what your song should be about.

Ooh, this is my favorite part.

You can make your song

be about anything.

[all] Anything?

Yeah. Just name an idea.

Any idea.

I've got it. What about pancakes?

[all chattering excitedly]

Pancake song is an excellent choice.

Okay. So you're gonna play
the pancake song.

[chuckles] Great idea.

-Well, that was easy.
-[giggles]

Now, why don't we--

Ooh, we can also sing about sea bunnies.

-[squeals]
-Their pointy ears!

So you're gonna play
the pancake sea bunny song?

Oh.

What about finball?

-Hmm?
-I could sing a song about treasure.

Bubbles. Just like the whole song
about bubbles.

-[Cal] Jellyfish.
-[Remy] Pancakes...

-[Bembe] Smoothies.
-[Jewels] Pirates!

[Remy] Uh, again.

Okay. So you wanna play... [inhales]

the pancake, sea bunny,
finball, treasure, bubbles,

jellyfish, smoothie, pirate,
and pancakes again song?

-Yeah.
-Mmm-hmm.

That's a lot of things.

It might be tricky

to remember all that during one song.

What if, for now,
you play a simple song about...

Ooh! How great it is
to make music with friends?

That sounds great.

-I love it.
-[Cal] Perfect.

Can the friends be eating pancakes?

-Ooh, and sea bunnies!
-[Cal] And cookies.

-[Bembe] Whales!
-[Remy] Rainbow!

-[Jewels] Pirates!
-[sighs]

[Ariel] Okay,
so writing a song didn't work out,

but that's okay.

Why don't you all play a favorite song

-that everybody already knows?
-Yeah.

Flounder, what's your favorite song?

The song we played earlier.

[humming tune]

Ooh, I love that song.

Nice choice, Flounder.

What can I say? I like good songs.

So we should play our favorite song?

Absolutely.

Ready?

[all] Ready!

Let's jam, friends.

And a one, and a two, and a three.

[all playing noisily and out of sync]

Huh?

What's going on?

It sounds like they're all
playing different songs at the same time.

Huh? Why do we all sound different?

[gasps] I know.

Let's try it again, friends.

[giggles]

[out of sync music resumes]

Wait, what if you just...

[music continues]

Huh? Uh...

Um, was it just me,

or did we not sound good at all?

No, we didn't.

We don't sound anything like Ariel's band.

Maybe we aren't good enough
at music to be in a band.

Thank you for your help,

but I just don't think
this band is going to work.

Come on, friends.

[Ariel] Wait up!

Hey, everyone, listen.

Being in a band isn't easy.

But it's important to remember
that to be in a band,

you need to listen to each other

and work together.

That's right.

Keep trying and you'll make
beautiful music.

Yeah, y'all had great songs to play.

You just need to try playing
the same song.

The same song?

What if we played
that song Ariel said before,

a song about making
beautiful music with friends?

And about pancakes and sea bunnies?

Nope, that sounds like a lot of things.

It might be tricky to remember.

Boop. Boop.

[giggles]

[crowd cheering]

Mer-folk and sea-folk,

-thank you all for coming out here today.
-[mermaid] Whoo!

I'm so honored to introduce

a clam-azing new band to you all.

[all gulp]

[Ariel] They've worked
so hard to get here.

It wasn't always easy,

but they never gave up.

And now, please welcome The Little Fins!

We're a real band!

Because we did what Ariel said.

Yeah. We listened to each other

and we worked together.

We're so proud of you, Little Fins.

That was awesome!

Singing a song about singing songs?

Genius.

I would never have thought of it.

[laughs]

We couldn't have done it
without all of your help.

Thank you for helping us
make beautiful music together.

-Happy to help.
-You're welcome.

-Of course.
-De nada.

So, Little Fins,

now that you're a band,

[all cheering and laughing]

[Ariel] "The Biggest Land Treasure."

Hiya, Sebastian.

Are you and the clam choir

getting ready for
the big show later today?

Ah, yes, we certainly are, Ariel.

Show them what you can do, clams.

[♪ clams vocalizing]

-[all] Whoa.
-[Flounder laughs]

-[all applauding]
-[chattering excitedly]

And what are you young finsters
up to today?

Off to play some of your games?

We're doing that later.

I invented a new game

where we try to catch our own tails.

[laughs]

Get back here, you. [laughs]

[laughs]

I see.

But before that,
we are going out to explore

the great, big, deep blue sea to find...

[all] Land treasure.

-[screams]
-[Ariel] Whoo-hoo!

Oh, Ariel, you and your land treasures.

I'll never understand why
you like those things so much.

What's not to like?

Searching and exploring?

The fun when you find a land treasure?

Wondering what
it might have been used for?

Nothing is more exciting
than discovering...

-[♪ vocalizing]
-[giggles]

...land treasures!

Well, I still don't understand.

But you swim off and have fun now.

The Royal Clam Choir and
I have a lot of work to do

if we're going to be ready
for this afternoon's big concert.

-[♪ vocalizing]
-[yelps]

Well, have a clam-azing show, everyone.

[Sebastian] All right, my friends,
let's practice it again.

-[both gasp]
-Hi.

-Bye.
-[both giggle]

Lucia,

did you find anything over there?

Nothing yet.

Oh, wow! Look at this.

[Flounder] Fernie found a land treasure!

Huh? Oh, sorry.

No land treasure here.

Just found some barnacles.
Still pretty neat, right?

-Uh...
-Um, no land treasures?

I thought for sure we'd find some here.

Maybe we've just found them all.

Oh, I hope not.

[all sighing]

-[clangs]
-[screams]

Was that me?

Let me try that again.

-[piano notes sounding]
-Oh, my.

That's one loud rock.

Flounder, I don't think that's a rock.

[gasps]

Hmm, I don't know what it is,

but it's definitely
the biggest land treasure I've ever seen.

What should we call it?

It made kind of a clang sound.

Could it be a clang-a-bang?

A bangalelo?

A pi-a-no?

-Don't think so.
-No, that doesn't sound right.

How about we call it a rabazcuzi?

-Ooh.
-Ooh. I like that name.

I wonder what it's for.

I have no idea.

But I do know one thing for sure.

We have to bring this back
to the Crystal Cavern.

But how are we gonna move something
this big back to the Crystal Cavern?

[grunting]

[all grunting]

I've got this.

[grunting]

How far did I go?

Am I at the Crystal Cavern yet?

-[Flounder straining]
-Not there yet.

You know what we need
to move the biggest land treasure?

The biggest sea creature.

I bet a whale could help us move it.

And lucky for us,
I've been working on my whale call.

-[both giggle]
-[imitating whale sounds]

[blows raspberry]

Hmm.

Maybe it wasn't loud enough?

[blows raspberry]

[all laugh]

My whale call might need
a little more work.

It's okay. We don't need a whale.

We can do this if we work together.

[all grunting]

It's moving!

[all] Yes! Yes! Yes!

-[creaks and clangs]
-[all] No!

[Lucia] Stop that rabazcuzi!

[all cheering]

[all whoop]

-[crashes]
-[all] Whoa!

[all laugh]

I didn't know it could do that.

Oh, dear.
My cuttle babies have woken up.

-[all chittering]
-Just when they went down for their nap.

I'm so sorry, Ms. Cuttles.

We were just trying to get our rabazcuzi
to the Crystal Cavern.

Oh, it's okay.

I just need to find
something for them to do.

Otherwise, they can get a little...

-[both giggling]
-...rambunctious.

How wonderful!

Hey, maybe this is what
a rabazcuzi is for.

Maybe. The babies
sure do seem to love it.

[Flounder whoops]

[Ariel chuckles] I guess
Flounder loves it, too.

-[Flounder] Whoo-hoo!
-Okay, little ones.

Time to put you down for your nap.

[babies chitter]

-Good bye, Ms. Cuttles.
-Bye-bye.

Um, Flounder,

I don't think she meant
you had to take a nap.

Oh, good. I'm not sleepy at all.

[chittering]

But how are we gonna get
this rabazcuzi moving again?

-No se.
-[sighs]

[rumbling]

Hey, do you hear something?

What is that?

Um, it looks like the rabazcuzi stopped

-right on top of a--
-Bubble geyser!

Hang on tight.
It's about to blow some...

-Bubbles!
-[all scream]

[all] Whoo-hoo!

[all cheering and laughing]

Wha-hoo! It is another beautiful day
at the racetrack

as the speediest speedsters
get ready to race.

On your mark, get set,

-swim!
-[zooming]

Looks like it's gonna be
a really fast race today.

[Ariel, Flounder, Fernie,
and Lucia cheering]

And, wait, what's this?

It appears to be Ariel
and her friends riding on...

-[♪ adventurous music playing]
-What is that thing?

[all] It's a rabazcuzi!

Well, whatever it is,

it sure is fast.

I guess first place goes
to Ariel and her friends

on their raba-who-sy-whats-it.

Wha-hoo!

[Ariel, Flounder,
Fernie, and Lucia cheering]

That was clam-azing.

I've never won a race before.

Yeah, that was great.

But how are we gonna get
the rabazcuzi to go that way

-towards the Crystal Cavern?
-[squeaking]

We've gotta get it moving again.

-Uh, it's moving again.
-Huh?

-[♪ tense music playing]
-[gasping]

[squeaking]

[Ariel] Uh-oh!
It's headed right for that big trench.

-Easy.
-[creaking]

Nobody touch it.

[all] No!

[giggles]

-[shrieks]
-[gasps]

[gasps]

[whistling]

[sighs]

Bubble-ka-bubble!

[laughs]

-Whoa!
-[giggles]

[all] Whoo-hoo! Yes!

Great thinking, Lucia.

You saved the rabazcuzi.

And even better,

now that it's inside of this bubble,

it'll be a lot easier to move.

You're right.
This bubble's bop-able.

Fin-tastic.

Let's bop this bop-able bubble

-back to the Crystal Cavern.
-Yeah.

[Lucia] Keep going.

[Fernie] We're almost there.

Whoa, what's that?

It's a whale.

[whale calling]

[whooshing]

-[all] Whoa!
-[Flounder] The rabazcuzi!

[Ariel] No!

Do you know what this means?

My whale call worked after all!

[blows raspberry]

Actually, that's not important right now.

After that rabazcuzi!

[Flounder] Oh, no, it's headed
straight for the open market.

-[crowd applauding]
-[all] Sebastian's concert!

Hurry! It's floating
right towards the bandstand.

-[clears throat]
-Look over there.

[both gasp]

We have to stop that bubble.

Oh, no.

-[pops]
-[all gasp]

-And a one, and a... Ah!
-[♪ piano chord plays loudly]

Sebastian!

Oh, Sebastian, we're so sorry
we ruined your concert.

We were trying to get this land treasure

back to the Crystal Cavern,

and then we couldn't get it to move.

But then we did get it to move,
and we went too fast.

And then we woke up the cuttle babies--

And we won a race.

And we won a race.

And then there was a whale and...

Sebastian?

Oh, that sound it made.

This is a land treasure, you say?

Mmm-hmm.
We don't know what it does.

[snaps]

[all] Ooh.

[♪ cheerful tune playing]

[Ariel gasps]

[all exclaim]

[♪ all vocalizing]

[gasps]

Land treasures.
I finally get it. [laughs]

[♪ vocalizing continues]

-[whispers indistinctly]
-[giggles]

Good idea. Bubble-ka-bubble.

Okay, that's what a rabazcuzi
is for. [laughs]
