[Ariel] "A Crystal Christmas."

[Flounder] It's so sparkly
and pretty.

Such a cool
land treasure, Ariel.

Si! Muy lindo!

This is gonna be
a great Christmas gift

for our friends
in the Crystal World.

Ooh! I can't wait
to give Akiko and Axyl this...

this...

What exactly is this?

-[laughter]
-Hmm... I'm not sure.

I haven't decided
what to call this yet.

I just know
it's a land treasure

-and it has really pretty sparkles.
-[both] Whoa!

-Whoa! So cool!
-[gasps] Ooh!

Well, what are we waiting for?

Yeah. Let's go give Akiko
and Axyl their gift.

Before we can open the door
to the Crystal World,

we've gotta get
our Glow Crystals.

Does everybody have
their Glow Crystals ready?

-Yep.
-I've got mine.

Si!

[all cheering]

Yes!

[Ariel] Then let's use them
to open the door.

To the Crystal World!

[all whooping and laughing]

-Hi, friends.
-[Axyl chirps]

Season's greetings.

Season's greetings to you,
too, Akiko and Axyl.

[chuckles] Akiko. Axyl.

We have a really special gift
to give you.

[laughter]

-A gift?
-Ah!

-Uh-huh.
-Here it is.

Wow.

It's so beautiful.

Thanks, best fins.

[growls]

I love it.

-[chirps]
-[laughs]

Axyl loves it too.

[chirps]

Just be careful
while you hold it, Axyl.

[chirps]

[all gasp]

Whoa! I didn't know
this land treasure could do that!

[Flounder gasps]

It's even sparklier
than we thought.

You're right, Flounder.

I think I know
what we should call this land treasure.

Ooh! I love this part.

We'll call it a flurry bubble.

Ooh, Great name, amiga.

Hey, this flurry bubble
reminds me of something.

[chirps]

[laughs]

No, it doesn't remind me
of crystal cookies,

but it does remind me
of the Giant Sparkle Bubble.

Ooh! What's that?

A Giant Sparkle Bubble is like
this flurry bubble, except way bigger.

It has sparkles
that float around inside, too.

That sounds clamazing.

What if we all go see
this Giant Sparkle Bubble today?

Bubbling Beardfish!

That's a great idea, Ariel.

What a fantastic way
to spend the holiday.

Is the Giant Sparkle Bubble
far from here, Akiko?

Not too far.

We have to travel

through the coldest waters
of the Crystal World to get to it.

What do you say, best fins?

A chance to see
a grandisimo flurry bubble?

Yes, please.

It sounds so finteresting.

Then let's hop
on our Crystal Sea Mobiles.

Follow me, mates.

Whoo-hoo!

[whirring]

[Flounder shivers]

Are you cold, Flounder?

[shivers]
It is a little chilly.

But I've got
a special dance ready to keep me warm.

[chuckles] Yeah!

-Ooh, yeah.
-[laughter]

[Axyl chirps]

[laughs]

[chirps]

[laughs]

Maybe we should all do
Flounder's dance to stay warm.

[laughter]

Whoa!

-Whoa!
-Ooh!

[Axyl chirps]

Why'd we stop here, Akiko?

I've got a fun surprise
for you all.

The best part
about getting to the sparkle bubble

is this amazing view.

[Ariel] Wow!

-[Flounder] Ooh!
-[Fernie] Whoa!

And sliding down the slope.

[Flounder] Sliding down?

Yes!

Come on, everyone.

Grab one of these
crystal shells and get ready to slide.

This sounds fun.

Que divertido!

-Yeah!
-Race everyone to the bottom.

Whoo!

♪ Oh, what a beautiful sight ♪

[Flounder gasps]

[Ariel] Whoa!

-Wow.
-Whoa!

So cool.

[Axyl chirps]

It really is
just like the flurry bubble.

We can swim inside
through there.

Vamonos! Let's go.

[whooping]

[laughter]

[all gasp]

Fintastic!

-[chirps]
-[laughs]

These are
the prettiest sparkles I've ever seen.

I definitely need to study
these sparkles.

They're so much fun to catch.

[whooping]

[rumbles]

Uh, did anyone hear that?

-I didn't hear anything.
-[chirps]

Okay, I definitely heard that.

The bubble
must have gotten loose from its base.

[all] Whoa!

Now we have
an even bigger problem.

That's a crystal reef.

If we don't stop the bubble,
it could bump into the reef and pop.

-[chirps]
-What are we gonna do?

What if we push the bubble?

Then maybe it'll go
the other way.

And it won't bump
into the crystal reef.

Let's try it.
Get ready to push, everyone.

Push the bubble this way.

[all grunting]

We did it.

[gasps] But now we're headed
towards a crystal bush.

All right, everyone,
now push the bubble that way.

[all grunting]

[screeches]

I think the bubble
is finally stopping.

[both sigh]

Yes! We saved the bubble.

[cheering]

[pops]

-[gasps]
-Uh...

We did not save the bubble.

[chirps sadly]

[sighs]

All I wanted was for everyone
to enjoy the Giant Sparkle Bubble.

[all sigh]

But now no one can.

[chirps]

[laughs]

Thanks, Axyl.

You're right.

At least we still have
this flurry bubble.

Hmm... [gasps]

Wait. Jumping Jellyfish!
That's it.

What if we make
our own Giant Sparkle Bubble?

-[gasps]
-[chirps]

How are we
gonna do that, Ariel?

I have an idea.

Okay, here's the plan,
everyone.

Lucia, can you make
a new Giant Sparkle Bubble

using a magic bubble spell?

I know bubble spells, but I've never
tried a sparkle bubble spell before.

I've got some magic crystals
that can help with that.

Great! Now, Flounder and Axyl,

can you two collect all the sparkles
that fell out of the Giant Sparkle Bubble?

Aye-aye, captain.

[chirps]

Fernie, will you make a base
for the new bubble?

You got it.
I'll make a great new spot.

And this time, we'll make sure
the bubble can't roll away.

I'll swim around
and help you all.

Let's get to work best fins.

[all whooping]

Let's do this!

[♪ upbeat music playing]

[Akiko] Yeah. Whoo!

-Wow.
-We did it.

-Whoa!
-[chirps]

Whoa!

Now we just need to shake this bubble
to make the sparkles float.

-[chirps]
-Uh-huh.

Just like the flurry bubble.

But there's still
one thing left for us to do.

-[Fernie] Let's go!
-[Akiko] Right behind you.

-[all whooping]
-Yeah!

Yeah!

Merry Christmas, Akiko.

Merry Christmas, Ariel.

[all laughing]

[Ariel] "The New Year Bubble."

It's the last day
of the whole year.

Which means tonight
is New Year's Eve.

[laughs]

I'm so excited that we get to stay up late
past our bedtime.

This calls
for some celebratory whistles.

[whistles]

[cheering]

[laughter]

-[inhales, blows]
-[whistles]

[all laughing]

I spent all day cleaning the palace
with my dad to get ready for the New Year.

I can't wait.

And I can't wait to share
these sea grapes with you tonight.

My Abuelita says
that if you eat grapes on New Year's Eve,

you'll have good luck
and an extra good time next year.

All this grape talk, you've got me
thirsty for some fruit juice.

Oh! Perfect timing.

Here you are, kids.

My newest smoothie.

I call it the Happy Blue Year.

It's a special smoothie
filled with chewy blueberry fruit bits.

[slurps]

[smacks lips]

Mmm! So chewy.

[gulps] Thanks, Ravi.

You're welcome.

I'm glad you like it.

I'll be serving them tonight
for everybody to enjoy

while they watch
the New Year Bubble pop.

I can't wait to see
that Bubble pop tonight.

Me neither.

Once the countdown begins, the bubble
will get bigger and bigger and bigger

-until it goes--
-Pop! Happy New Year.

And then we get to see the grandisimo
fireworks that come out of the bubble.

[slurping] And best of all,
this is the year

that we're finally gonna stay up
late enough to see that bubble pop.

All those other times
I always got too tired

and fell asleep
before I got to see it.

I'm always surprised
at how you're able to sleep

through all those
loud fireworks.

Well, not this year.

This year,
I'm gonna stay up past my bedtime.

I took a nap earlier.
And then I took a bonus nap.

So I'm finally
going to stay awake

and celebrate the New Year
with my best fins.

You got this.

It's gonna be great.

I can't wait.

Well, we should start
getting ready for tonight.

Why don't we head back
to the palace

and change
into our fancy outfits?

Yeah. Let's go.

[yawns]

Wow.

That was the biggest yawn
I've ever heard.

[gasps] Oh, no!

Am I getting sleepy already?

The nap didn't work.

Friends, please don't let me
fall asleep and miss that bubble pop!

Not again.

Can you all help me stay up
to see it?

Please please please?

Of course we'll help,
Flounder.

We'll do whatever it takes
to keep you awake until the New Year

so you can see the bubble pop.

Right, friends?

-Yeah. You can count on us.
-Uh-huh.

Of course.

Yay! Thank you so much.

I can't wait to... [yawns]

Another yawn?

We better get started.

[yawns]

[all chuckling]

Yeah!

Okay, Flounder. Are you ready?

How do I look?

Very fancy.

[yawns]

And very sleepy.

Oh, no!

The bubble pop
is still a few hours away.

How am I going to stay awake
until then?

[all] Hmm.

I know how we can
keep you awake Flounder.

Knock-knock jokes.

Hmm. Knock-knock jokes?

Yeah.

You always get so excited
whenever you tell them to us.

-I'm sure that'll keep you wide awake.
-Mm-hmm.

That's a great idea, Ariel.

[clears throat]

Knock, knock.

[both] Who's there?

[Flounder snoring]

Huh?

Um, Flounder?

Who's there?

[snores]

Flounder?

Ah! Knock, knock.
Knock, knock.

Hmm...

This isn't working.

[yawns]

What if somebody else
told you a knock-knock joke, Flounder?

Then he'd be too busy
laughing to fall asleep.

Great idea.

You tell the first joke.

Okay. [clears throat]

Mm-hmm.

Here it goes.

Knock, knock.

-Who's there?
-Sea.

[yawns] Sea who?

I'll see you next year.

[laughs]

Do you get it?
Because we live under the sea,

and it's also New Year's Eve.

-[laughs] Huh?
-[snores]

Flounder? Flounder?

Ah! Who's there? Who's here?

I don't think
knock-knock jokes

are gonna help Flounder
stay awake.

Let's try something else.

Okay, Flounder,
to help you stay awake...

[yawns]

...we're going to make
kelp cakes

until it's time to watch
the New Year Bubble pop.

Great idea, Lucia.

If there's one thing I love more
than sleeping, it's making kelp cakes.

Just leave the mixing to me.

I've been working on a new
kelp cake recipe, so this is perfect.

You got it, Flounder.

-I'll start grabbing the plates.
-I'll set the timer.

And I'll start getting some fruit ready
to put on top of the cake.

[Flounder]
♪ Mix, mix, mix it up ♪

Oh, yeah,
this definitely working.

I feel so awake.

That's great, Flounder.
Keep at it.

[sniffs]

Ah!

I love the smell
of kelp cake batter.

-Mmm.
-[bell dings]

Knock, knock. Who's there?
I'll get it.

-Aw.
-[chuckles]

Oh, sea biscuits.
I fell asleep again, huh?

Um, Flounder, you have a little something
on your nose there.

-Huh?
-Let me get that for you.

[Flounder laughs]

Instead of mixing the batter, why don't
you start getting the bubble icing ready?

Bubble icing?
That sounds deep sea-licious.

[laughs]

I'll go get the bag
of baking bubbles out of the cupboard.

Bubble icing.

That will take about
five baking bubbles.

One bubble, two bubble...

[yawns]

...three bubble, four...

I think
making the bubble icing

will definitely
keep Flounder awake.

Um, Ariel?

Mmm.

Cake.

[all laughing]

Okay.
Here's the plan, Flounder.

We're gonna keep you awake
with music.

[both] Right.

Music is perfect.

I can't fall asleep
if I'm playing my maracas.

Fintastic. Here's a song they play
every New Years after the bubble pops.

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

[♪ Caribbean version
of "Auld Lang Syne" playing]

[yawns]

[blubbers]

I think this is really working
to keep Flounder awake.

Great job, Flounder.

Flounder?

[snores]

Is... is he...

Yep. He's sleep dancing.

[snores]

-[yawns]
-[clangs]

Ah! Knock, knock.

Here, Flounder?
I have another idea.

Why don't you try playing
this Kone?

[inhales]

[honks]

Wow, that's one loud...

-[inhales]
-[honks]

Let's give it a try.

[♪ Caribbean version
of "Auld Lang Syne" continues]

[honking]

See? The Kone is so loud,
nobody could fall asleep while...

-[Kone honks]
-Hmm?

[snores]

-Oh, no! Flounder fell...
-[Kone honks]

...asleep again.

-Flounder! Hey, Flounder!
-[honking uncontrollably]

-[both wince]
-[honking continues]

[yawns]

[gasps] Huh?

I did it again, didn't I?

Yeah.

[both] Yeah.

I just can't stay awake.

Oh!

I'm going to miss
the New Year Bubble pop again,

just like last year
and the year before and the year before.

There's gotta be
something else we can try.

[yawns]

It's no use.

Thank you for trying, friends,

but it looks like I'm going to be spending
New Year's Eve in my bed.

I wish I could think
of one more thing we could try.

[yawns]

But I'm too sleepy
to think of anything.

I hope the Bubble
is as fintastical as I imagine it is.

[sighs]

Good night, friends.

Happy New Year.

[snores]

Poor Flounder.

He wanted to see
the New Year Bubble pop so bad.

I know, but he's going to spend
another New Year's Eve in bed.

Hmm...

Spend New Year's Eve in bed.

What is it, Ariel?

Jumping Jellyfish. That's it.

Flounder did say
he wished he could think

of one more thing to try
so he could see the bubble pop.

Ooh! What's the plan, Ariel?

Well,
here's what I'm thinking.

[whispering]

[snores]

-[crowd clamoring faintly]
-[yawns]

[man] I am so excited
for the New Year's Bubble to pop.

Hmm?

Is it morning already?

Huh?

[gasps]
The New Year Bubble?

But... but how?

Huh?

Huh?

-[horns and whistles blowing]
-[giggles, gasps]

Huh?

Hey there, sleepyhead.

Ready to watch
the New Year Bubble pop?

I can't believe it!

You moved my bed all the way
to the Open Market?

It's like you said, you were gonna
spend New Year's Eve in bed again.

We just thought
you'd like it better

if your bed
was right under the bubble.

I do like that better.

Thank you. What a great idea.

I wish I'd thought of that.

-The countdown is starting.
-Whoa!

Here, everyone,
take a sea grape and make a wish.

[all] Ten, nine, eight...

The bubble is about to pop!

...six, five, four,
three, two, one.

[pops]

[fireworks exploding]

Whoa!

Happy New Year, Atlantica.

[horns and whistles blowing]

[inhales]

[horns and whistles
continue blowing]

Happy New Year.

I couldn't ask
for better friends to start the new year.

Thank you so much
for helping me see the bubble pop friends.

This means
the whole ocean to me.

You're welcome, Flounder.

-Pa dekwa!
-De nada.

[yawns]

But you know what?

I think it's time for me
to get back to sleep.

I'm so tired.

I haven't slept
since last year.
