friends get swallowed by a whale, and must work together in order to get out.

Plot Summary[]

The gang is on a small field trip with Ms. Seabottom. While she takes a rest, she has her students go off and find a seacreature and explore its lifestyle. The very important rule they must follow is that all must stick together. Tooter breaks this rule and finds a small red fish. He offers it a sandwhich, only to learn that it's really a giant angler fish. The gang soon learns of this, so they all swim away from it and hide inside a few white mountains.

Turns out those mountains are teeth. The angler fish is scared away, and the snorks don't know they're inside a whale until it swallows them. Allstar wants them to stay together, but they end up going their seperate ways to find a way out. Casey tries numerous ways to get out, while Junior finds a treasure of gold and Allstar searches for the others. He soon finds Daffney sitting on a clam because it's the only thing inside the whale not slimey. They also find Tooter, who keeps chasing a small purple fish. Later they find Junior, who keeps stuffing treasure in his pants, and then Casey. She talks about how she can barely catch her breath, which gives Allstar an idea - they have to get out through the whale's blowhole.

They see Tooter still chasing that fish, which happens to be a pufferfish. They use it to make a ballon and tie it up to seaweed, the only way out of the way. However, they're not moving, so Junior's forced to dump his treasure and the snorks have to use their snork power in order to get out. This becomes successful, and then they untie the pufferfish. Junior leaves with it, hoping to find the whale and get all his treasure back. In the end, the snorks learn that in order to accomplish something, they must work together.
