SEEFOOD:

Ah, when will you ever learn? You

know you can never outswim me.

lt's not how fast you swim that

matters, it's how fast you think!

Cheeky little..!

Boo!

You alright there, Pup?

l-l think l'm seeing things!

So many, Julius.

Reckon they belong to the couple

that passed by last full moon?

Maybe.

Hey hey hey, stay where l can see you!

We've never been this far out before...

Any day now, any day now!

This one looks like a little me!

Julius!

Julius!

No!!!

Julius!

Pup!!!

Pup!!!

Julius..

Pup!!!

Oh, no...

l thought-l thought l could

stop them...this time.

You shouldn't blame yourself,

Pup, you did the best you could.

No...l can do better.

So...erm...

What would you like to have?

All you have to do is ask...

Anything at all.

l...don't...

No matter.

The entire menu shall be brought

forth for your convenience.

Menu..?

What do you have prepared

for our young guest today?

That's the menu?

Why, no...Of course not! We've

saved the best for last...

Oh, and over here we have...Chef's

Surprise.

So?

What will it be? Fresh...

...or canned?

Hey hey, where are you going

How about needle boy? No?

Too skinny, too much bite, l

wouldn't choose him either,

Unless push comes to shove.

Now, you can't go wrong with

fleshy here, tasty too!

Or how about these!...Ta da!

Can't-Can't take this any more!

That look's pretty cool.

Hey... How are you holding

up, little fella?

What would you do with

something like that?

Go somewhere far away from here.

...see it?

Yeah, yeah...

Very soon, the whole ocean

gonna be all dark.

Good thing we have this!

Destiny is upon us, our

time to feast is near!

Wanna see something really cool?

Don't feel like it just now...

Sorry.

Come on, it's just over

this mount. Come on!

Maybe some other ti--

Arrrrrrrrrrrr..!!! TWANGGGG!!!

Alright, feeding time.

Round up the usual.

Running low on them tires.

Scour the south ridge, might

be some left overs there.

No, no more tires...Yucks!

Junk food, all junk!

This is not good. Not good at all.

Remember Cosmo?

We've got to distract him with

something new or...or...

lt's us on the menu!

You built this?

No but my masterpiece

is inside. Over here...

Wow!

This is my ticket out of here!

Wow...erm...What is it?

Hmm...

Wonder what they taste like..?

lf you don't go for it,

you'll never know.

Mertle!!! Haven't seen you around

for awhile, how have you been?

Still alive.

l miss your stories

from lands far away.

Oh, well, l definitely

have more to tell you.

Chickens.

Chickens?

They taste so good, everything

else is a distant second.

Really?

Whoaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

No!!!

Hold on!!!

Pup! Pup! Oh, No....

l'm over here.

Pup.....!!!!

What a ride!!!

There's a whole wide world out there

you've never experienced before.

A world that's ever exciting.

Ever colorful. Ever so...tasty.

Hey..!

l'll be fine, don't you worry!

Who, me worried..?

Heather!!!

Huh! that's way too much work!

l'm happy with what l have...

He didn't bite..

But you said..

l can't make him do anything

he doesn't want to.

Unlike his father, he is different.

He has been good for us.

Good for us? Julius will eat

us the first chance he gets.

And he has had many...chances.

Yet we're still here.

So what does that say about him?

He's taking his own sweet time.

He'll come around one day.

By then it'll be too

late! You hear me?

Hey, Octo...

Yeah..?

l...

That one. And that one.

Oh, and that one too!

l can already taste them in my mouth...

Now, he's going to be a big problem!

Hey!

This is how you do it, little brother!

Stop it, Julius!

Why..?!! come on....This is fun!

My heart, my heart...Oh my!

What's the matter?

l can't do what you do.

Sure you can

You're big, way bigger than me!

lf you're brave enough, little brother,

you can be as big as you want to be!

Well, l'm not....and stop calling me that,

l'm not your little brother. l'm nothing.

Erm...my mistake!

l heard about what happened,

l'm sorry.

But l'm not worried about you,

l'm sure you'll find your way.

Well, you're in luck, Pup!

The 'way' beckons

Huh?

Spin, don't..!

l can show it to you!

Spin!

So are you up to it? Or not?

You're...mine

You're right, they are here!

Pup, don't get your

hopes up too high...

That's one of them! Look over there!

Mertle, you can help me!

How..?

We'll..We'll think of something

Pup, please. There's

nothing you can do!

Look at what you've done! Putting

crazy ideas into this child!

l know...Octo!!!

So what's eating you..?

l-l meant...anything wrong?

Anything we can do?

lf you guys saw me in trouble,

l mean 'real trouble'

Like even l can't get out of...

Yes?

Would you be there to bail me out?

Erm...

Yeah...'erm'..

Sure...Sure...

Yeah, 'sure' we would.

Of course. We exist to serve you...

Even at your moment of dire need!

At least you're still here

You can help me, l know you can!

Octo, please...This is my...my

family we're talking about!

The only one who can get onto land

without any trouble is Mertle,

And she's too old for

a mission like this.

Watch it, watch it!

Then get me up there,

build me something!

Even if l could, l won't.

Listen to me,

Pup...You have to learn to let go.

And besides you're too small to

carry out something like this...

l'm what?

l don't mean for it to sound the way it

sounds...

But yes, you are too small.

What are you going to do even

if you do find them?

l mean do you even have a plan?

l was hoping you would...

Like l said, l won't be part

of this foolhardy exercise.

l'm sure Mertle agrees.

Please, Pup. lt was wrong of Spin to-

Spin isn't wrong. lf anything, he

is the only one that's helping.

He mustn't know.

He's not going to learn

anything from me.

l mean it, Octo. lf you like

the boy, you'll not help him.

You think l'm just going to blurt out that

he can breathe on land just like you.

l can see you're very close to him.

So for his sake, he must never know.

Hey!....What are you guys up to?

Nothing. We were...

Hehe! Another one of

your crazy ideas, huh?

l'm busy here, Julius.

What do you want?

l was thinking, we should all try and...and

hang out a little bit more.

'Hang out'?

Hunt together sometimes, check out

the reef by the white rocks.

Or maybe we could go

explore the trench,

heard a great deal about that place.

lt would be...fun.

Wow, it does sound like 'fun'!

Alright, Octo. Remember

what we talked about.

No, no no...hey wait...wait

Later, Julius.

You've got that look.

You're up to no good.

l resent that!

Well resent all you want. l believe you've

got Pup involved for a reason.

l'm right, aren't l

You're old and mean, that's what

you are!

Now..now leave me alone!

You leave Pup be, you

hear me? Leave him be!

What's this about Pup..?

Nothing...You-You heard wrong.

No, he didn't!

Well..?

l-l...

He showed Pup where the eggs might be,

Somehow put it into the boy's

mind that he can rescue them!

Now why would you go do that?
