(the snorks are testing out Corky's latest sonar system)
Corky: On a clear day, you can see dry land.
Allstar: *Wti hehadphones on* Wow, with these things, you can hear everything from miles around!
Corky: Yep! And at the first sight of trouble, *horn* the Snork Patrol swings into action!
(they hear dolphin soudns)
Allstar: Gee, I wonder what that is.
Casey: Let me try. *puts them on* It sounds like something from Wild Reef National Park. What is it, Corky?
Corky: *puts them on too* Hmm. *sees through telescope* I can't imagine what could be making that strange noise. *sees Jojo* Unless, BWAH! Oh, it's only Jojo. Hey, Jojo might know who's making those weird sounds.
Jojo: *listens through headphones* Oh, poor baby dolphin.
Casey: Dolphin? What's he saying?
Jojo: Mama, Papa, help! Boo hoo! Want to go home!
Corky: My friends, this looks like another job for *horn* the Snork Patrol. Um, first we better find out where this baby dolphin is. *sees dry land* Aha! Somewhere beyond the reef! Even past the river delta!
Allstar: What are we waiting for? Let's go.
(humans see it swimming in the Kingfish River)
Kid: Hey, look at that fish!
Woman: That's some kind of dolphin!
Man: What's he doing in the river?
(the snorks are off to find him)
Allstar: Wow, check it out - a golden dolphin!
Jojo: Very rare!
Corky: Greetings, my little friend! *it runs off*
Casey: Oh, he doesn't understand us.
Allstar: You speak dolphin, Jojo. Tell him not to worry.
Jojo: *dolphin* Don't worry, we're friends!
Casey: We're going to help you swim back to the ocean.
Jojo: *dolphin* We're going to help you back to the ocean. *it still swims away*
Casey: Jojo, are you sure you know how to speak dolphin?
Jojo: I speak good dolphin! I will ask what he is afraid of.
(the dolphin tries swimming up a waterfall, but can't)
Jojo: *dolphin* What's wrong?
Dolphin: The evil one!
Jojo: Them, the evil ones.
Casey: Which ones?
Dolphin: Both mean and nasty.
Jojo: I don't know.
Corky: Well whoever they are, they're no match for *horn* the Snork Patrol!
Dolphin: The Snork Patrol?!
(a grumpy old captain is swimming on a boat in dry land)
Captain: I'll find you yet! I'll find you and net you and I oughta get you - even if it takes another five years!
Handyman: Boss, boss, I just heard on the radio that a golden dolphin is swimming downsteam in the Kingfish River!
Captain: At last! In a few minutes, he'll be mine!
(the humans still see the dolphin in the river)
Corky: Don't worry, you're almost home.
Allstar: Yeah, as soon as we get past the reef, you'll be in safe waters.
Dolphin: *sees ship up above* That's them!
Jojo: Th-th-that's them, the evil ones!
Corky: Head for the reef! *but the boat gets closer* Oh no! They cut us off!
Casey: Oh, poor little guy, he doesn't stand a chance!
Corky: I'll fix those cards! *tries drilling the boat with his sub* Uh oh, arm replated!
Allstar: What a bummer!
Jojo: I have an idea - I will call on some friends to help! *toots like Tooter* Ugh, I was wrong - bad idea!
(but instead, the dolphin is caught in a net)
Captain: Well well, look what the tide brought in! Must be my lucky day! *laughs before water kicks back at him*
Casey: Jojo's friends, the whales!
Allstar: Let's go!
Captain: After them!
Handyman: I can't get any closer!
(the whales surround them)
Allstar and Casey: Yay, Jojo!
Corky: Well done!
Dolphin: You were terrific!
(but more nets come down)
Captain: Now get out of my way! Or the next one will be a warning sub!
All: Oh no!
(the ship comes and literally grabs the dolphin this time)
Casey: *gasps* Oh no!
Corky: We'll get him back!
Captain: *laughs* Mine, at long last!
Casey: Oh, they're too fast! We'll never catch them!
Corky: The Snork Patrol never says never!
Casey: Yes, I know, technically we don't, but Corky --
(the whales come over)
Jojo: That's okay, my friends, you did your best.
Allstar: Hey guys, I just got an idea!
<TRANSITION>
(the golden dolphin is still caught in that net)
Captain: Your pesky friends, whatever they are, are long gone!
Dolphin: *whales*
(Corky's sub is on the back of a whale fin)
Jojo: Good thinking, Allstar. Hit it. *they swing toward the ship*
Captain: *as he nears the dock* Yo ho ho, and a barrel of gold!
Fisherman 1: What's he got in the net?
Fisherman 2: Looks like a big 'en.
Captain: You'll see soon enough! And I'll tell ya one thing, no fisherman ever caught a fish like this!
Allstar: Shh. *as they all sneak on the ship* Casey, you know what to do?
Casey: Right.
Captain: Yep, I chased this fish for two days straight, and then we ran into a herd of whales. *Allstar and Casey tie his shoes together so that he would trip when he walked*
Jojo: Got to stop this.
Captain: But he was well worth it.
Corky: Unhand that dolphin!
Captain: Who said that? YOU! *trips over*
(as Corky jumps on him, Jojo uses the controls to move the net around)
Jojo: Must be something wrong with this thing!
Corky: Allow me to give you some pointers!
Captain: Why you little --
Corky: Oh no! *jumps off*
Captain: *the ship literally grabs part of the pier, and the handyman ends up riding on it like a jet ski* HELP! Now I'll show you no mercy!
Jojo: *still using the controls* ugh, now I've got i! I think.
Captain: Okay, you little pest. It's time to -- *dolphin hits him, then he places Allstar and Casey in a lobster cage* Now to dispose of those other little sea vermon!
Handyman: Boss, boss! What about me?
Jojo: *dolphin* Don't worry, little dolphin. You'll soon be safe. *then caught on fishing bait* OH NO!
Captain: So long, shark bait! *sees Corky running* Hold it right there! *with pliers* Either you get off my boat now, or I'll be forced to use this!
Corky: Great Neptune! Oh well, you asked for it! Nya nya nya nya nya nya!
Captain: *groans* Why you little -- *shoots it at him, but it spouts water instead* AH! My boat! *covers it with a bucket, but fails* Oh no!
Corky: *uses controls* Now, where was I? Oh yes! *swings dolphin back into the ocean* He who plays dirty, loses dirty! *jumps back into the ocean with the others as Jojo frees the others*
Allstar: Be seeing ya!
Captain: I'll get you for this!
Handyman: What?! Abandon ship!
Captain: Never!
Handyman: But boss, we'll both go down!
Captain: Well don't just sit there, untie the rope! Give me that! *bites it off* Well, start cuddlling. *they paddle away from the ship*
(the golden dolphin reunites with his family)
All: Aww! Dolphin: Thank you!
Jojo: He says he's happy, and he's glad we helped him, and --
Casey: It's okay, Jojo, we get the picture!
Jojo: Oh. *dolphin* Bye, bye!
