Shark Bait Page #3

---

I knew back in San Francisco..

Oh, what a weekend that was.

Oh no, not this story again!

- Can you take it out?

- Absolutely!

But you're going to have to

help me big time.

Me?

Ok, you lay back like

I'm giving you nice pedicure.

Now what I need you to do is

to take her fin... that's right.

And Honey, I want you to

look into his eyes, okay?

Ok, now this isn't going to hurt... me.

You gonna be a brave girl?

- I will.

- She will.

She was!

- How do you feel?

- Okay, I think.

I guess I was more

scared than hurt.

But I don't know what I would've done

if you hadn't been there, Pi.

- How'd you wind up down here?

- I made a promise...

Or maybe it's destiny.

Well...there's a big show tonight

at the Amphitheater.

Normally I skip it. But I thought...

well if you wanna go...

Bong-bong...BONG-bong...

Ha, ha, ha. We got it!

But getting, and keeping,

are two different things.

Back off, before you get hurt.

#Got a date with Cordelia,

cause you're a big bad fish, ya.

Zip it, Harry codfish junior.

- Where you've been?

- I was hiding out.

- From who?

- Squidnappers!

That trying to steal

Nerissa's blue pearl, buddy boy.

Well, come on!

Hey!

Dude! Oh fish!

Now, I'm no fortune-teller, boys,

but I can predict three things

that aren't gonna happen:

You see,

I'm not gonna get hurt.

I'm not gonna back off.

We're gotta do something.

Dude. Getting beat up once a day

isn't good enough for you?

There's three of them!

Get him!

You took left!

Hey, come back here!

Trick or treat?

Quit now, before you're calamari.

I got the sauce right here.

I'm not afraid to use it.

What a old man!

You turtle!

I don't feel so good!

See you later.

Such big heads.

Such tiny brains.

- Wow

- Turtlely awesome.

Let's go.

That old turtle's

unbelievable!

- You boys saw Nerissa?

- Speak up, son.

We saw Nerissa fight some squids!

He was amazing!

Of course.

That's why they call him

el macho tor tuga.

Man he've got the moves awesomely

for an old coots.

Oh, sorry.

Sorry about that old coots.

- Huh?

- He said old coot!

No, I did not toot!

Why don't you accuse Manny for once?

He blasts out more bubbles

than a scuba diver.

What you say man?

Hold up a second.

What' you say?

That's it, viejo loco!

I've had enough of your insults!

En garde! En garde!

Spirit of the Sea!

We ask your help in contacting,

Uncle Phil.

He was last seen...

La, la, la, LA,

la, la, la, LA!

Where?

Where was he seen...?

I'm not listening,

I'm not listening this...La, la, la, LA,

What're you doing?

Dude, you saw

what was goin'on down there.

My mom with all

her voodoo mumbo jumbo.

Those seances are totally embarrassing.

You know what, I think you're right.

I think swimming through

the middle of the room going,

'La la, LA LA LA LA!'is

much more dignified.

So what's that thing

your mom's always staring at?

Oh, that's the pearl my dad gave her.

You know the old saying,

'give a girl a pearl...?

Why would anyone want to

give a girl a pearl?

Cause if she accepts it,

it means you'll be together forever.

Anyway, My Mom thinks hers is magic.

Hey, that's what those squids

were trying to steal from Nerissa... a pearl!

You don't think he's gonna ask

some girl to marry him, do you?

Oh, gross, no, dude!

He's like 200 years old!

That's disgusting.

- Hi!

- Hey!

It's showtime!

Welcome, to the Reef Amphitheater.

We are proud to present

the Caribbean's most famous adventurer,

who is here tonight to tell

the thrilling tales of his encounters

with the sea's

most fearsome creatures.

Ladies and gentlemen,

give up for ...Thornton!

And his back-up prawns,

the Kim Chi!

I could make you all gasp

with just an average story

for even my typical tales

are scary and gory

But I know the adventure you're aching

to hear The most stupendous!

And horrendous battle

of my entire career!

He faced a creature that would

make you faint dead with fear!

The most hideous sea monster

to ever appear!

It had two mouths,

and on each mouth a sneer!

It had two heads! And looked like

a giant brassier!

I faced a sea monster

but I didn't make tracks.

I stood face to face

and fought off her attacks.

And I know that you'll

want to get all of the facts.

So stick a fin in your ear

and dig out the wax.

Dig the wax from your ears,

you'll seem more debonair

'cause it looks like you've stuck

two big candles in there.

It was a monstrous sea monster,

the size of a tanker!

What did you do?

I capsized and sank her.

And then were you through?

Not a bit! She was brawny.

And strong as an anchor!

I had to get tough

I tickled and spanked her!

What an amazing sight!

When it was over

I thanked her.

Because I am always polite.

I'm fairly certain,

this guy is full of blowfish.

I hear you say 'But!'

And you say 'Tut! Tut'

Things are not always

what they appear

I may have gray whiskers

and an oversized rear...

His butt is humongous!

It must weigh a ton

It frightens small children

And blots out the sun!

What are you doing?

That's not in the script!

Are you mad? You're running!

It's a big bulging billowing

blubber-stuffed rump!

It's bigger by far than

a humpback whale's hump!

- Hey, Max! Bring up the music!

- Hit it boy! Quickly!

Go Thornton!

You're humongous!

Thank you!

That was quite

an amazing story.

It's getting late,

I guess I better go.

No, wait. Don't go. Not yet.

Well, I...

- Have you ever been to the surface?

- No.

Come on!

Wow!

See that set of stars over there?

That's called the Big Dipper.

And that over there is the Little Dipper...

I had no idea!

And up there is

Leo and next to it, Gemini

And see that one over there?

Well, that's me...

Huh?

Those stars are called Pisces.

Pi is for Pisces.

Beautiful...

Boo! Let's get out of here!

Hurry, Cordelia!

You'd better be scared.

- Well hello.

- Go, Pi. Leave me.

I won't

No!

Leave him alone!

Oh well I'm confused, baby,

cause I thought you wanted

to be left alone,

and yet I find you swimming around

with that piece of chum.

It's none of your business what I do, Troy.

You don't own me.

I'm a tiger shark, baby.

I own whatever I can take,

and I take whatever I want.

Troy!

- Can I eat him?

- Eenie, meeney,

- ah miney...

- Troy!

Oh, what the heck.

Why don't you each take half?

NO! Troy, if you let them do this,

I'll never forgive you.

Forgiveness. I don't need

your stinking forgiveness.

Please!...Please!

If you don't hurt him...

I'll do anything

Like... anything, anything?

If you leave Pi alone, and promise never

to come to the Reef again,

- then... I'II...I'II...

- Yeah?

Accept your pearl.

- No...!

- Hey!

Let our little chum go.

Cordelia, you can't...

I'll be back at

the next full Moon.

Wait till you see the pearl

I'm gonna bring you little girl.

You'll change your mind

about me then.

Vamanos!

So baby, when I get back,

be ready.

I got thirty days

to live it up and party!

Who's the hotshot
