[Kelp] Tacos!

That's it. Let go.
Swim back and admire.

My very first seaweed lasagna.

-[Dad Tuskington sniffles]
-Are you crying, Dad?

Hard to tell. We live in water.

You know your dad.
He's very proud of his food.

Makes him happy-cry.

I helped!

I did seven things.

I did that part,
that part, and that part.

Actually,
I think I did most of the parts.
Right, Dad?

And are you ready
for the best part?
Eating it.

-[Kelp gasps] Ah!
-How about you, Kelp?

Thanks, Dad.
But I'm going to have tacos
with Pixie and Ollie today.

Tacos? What's a tacos?

Tacos.

Don't know.

But Pixie says they're crunchy.

[slurping]

What's this crunchy?

Don't know,
but I'm excited to find out.

[scatting]

Bye.

[upbeat music playing]

-[Ollie] Kelp!
[both] We're having tacos.

Tacos! Tacos!

Crunchy tacos!

Okay, okay. You guys
really like crunchy tacos.

Baz, always a pleasure.

Twinkles Twinklestar,
you've got that twinkle.

[gasps] Wow!

-Whoa.
-[both giggling]

Cool.

-[Pixie] Kelp!
-[both] Tacos!

Whoops. Sorry. Tacos! Coming.

Oh, wow, this place is awesome.

What's that smell?

-[Pixie] Kelp!
-Oh. Right. Tacos!

There's my favorite kid.

Ooh, there's my favorite dad.

Hi, Ollie's dad.
I'm here to try a taco.

His first ever taco.

Ooh! [laughs]

I love a first-timer.
What'll it be?

I've got rainbow seed,
saltwater nut, or...

extra crunchy with rambutan jam.

[both] Extra crunchy,
extra crunchy!

I still don't know
what that is, but sure!

I've never seen food
that's not wet.

[sniffs] I've never sniffed food
that doesn't smell
like the ocean.

Come on, just eat it already.

I've never listened to...

Just kidding.
I don't listen to food.

[taco crunches]

Mm!

What was that?

That's the crunch.

The best part, right?

Ooh!

♪ It's like a buzz in my tummy
A fizz in my brain ♪

♪ What is this? ♪

♪ It's beyond
Ooh, tacos ♪

Kelp, your bubbles!

So cool!

It still surprises me
when that happens.

Tacos are exciting.

Tacos make everyone excited.

Do you know
who would really get excited?

My dad.

He's a chef like you.

Do you think I could
take some crunchy tacos
for him to try?

And my mom
and little sister, Scallop, too?

Abso-cruncha-taco-lutely!

From one chef to another.

Dad! Mom! Scallop!

Tacos!

Tacos.

Huh?

[gasps] Don't eat it! Uh!

What's the matter?

It's not supposed to be bendy.
It's supposed to be crunchy.

And that...

is not crunchy.

[burps]

[sighs] At least Squish
and Mr. Calypso like it.

We still don't know what
this crunchy is you speak of.

Crunchy is...
Well, it's loud and, um...

Ooh, yeah, it makes noise
when you chew it. And...

Uh, it's pointy in your mouth.

Uh, we don't really
have crunchy food underwater.

But it's super cool, I promise.

Hmm. Just another unicorn thing
I can't be a part of. Whatever.

Scallop,
I am going to figure out a way
for you to try a crunchy taco

if it's the last thing I do.
You too.

Especially you, Dad.

[Kelp] Pixie. Ollie.

Kelp, you're back.
Did your family like the tacos?

Yeah, did they like them?

Love them? Yum-yummy-yum them?

They didn't get to try them.

[both gasp]

That is terrible!

-Why not?
-What happened?

Turns out tacos
don't like to get wet.

But my family lives underwater.

So...

We just need to find a way
to keep them from getting wet.

Your pretty mane never gets wet.

Thanks.
That's because I have this.

I just love your head bubble.

I never thought of it that way.

I guess I do have
a bubble on my head.

[gasps] Guys! If my head bubble
keeps my mane dry,

maybe my spark bubbles
can keep my tacos dry

and...

[all] Crunchy! [laughing]

Get ready for the...

-Ooh.
-...crunch.

I wanna crunch, I wanna crunch.
I wanna crunch.

I wanna get it, I wanna get it!

Huh?

Ah...

Oh.

Hmm.

Ah...

[gasps]

[groans]

[sighs] Aw.

I only thought about
how to get them underwater.

I didn't think about
how to eat them underwater.

Hey, we got to see them.
That's something.

I know! I know!
Put me in a bubble.

[gasps] Then I can eat
your loud, pointy unicorn food
when I'm inside it.

-[gasps] Scallop,
you're a genius!
-I am?

Yeah, I am.

If I can make a bubble
big enough for all of you,

then you can finally try
crunchy tacos.

That's it. You've got it.

[strains]

[all groan]

I don't get it.

I'm part unicorn.

Why can't I make a bubble
big enough?

It's okay, Kelp.
We don't need to try
the crunchy tacos.

Yeah, I don't need
my food to be loud or pointy.

I do. I do need my food
to be loud and pointy.

Hmm.

Maybe Pixie and Ollie
can teach me
how to make a bigger bubble.

[gasps]

Spark helpers at your service.

I love a good challenge.

We're gonna help you make
the biggest bubble ever.

What do we do first?

We play.

Play?

[upbeat music playing]

The better you feel,
the stronger your unicorn spark.

[all giggling, exclaiming]

Wow, Pixie.

I've never seen you make
rainbows like those before.

I love playing
with you guys so much.

It makes me feel super good.

Now you try, Kelp.

One, two, three...

Mm...

They still aren't big enough.

Ooh, I know.

[peaceful music playing]

[Pixie] Um, Ollie?

What are we doing?

What makes me feel good.

This.

What's this?

Lying on the grass, being quiet,
looking at my cloud friends.

That's Vanessa.

Hi, Vanessa!

Yep, feeling so good.

Wow.

[gasps]

Aw.

Pixie's rainbows were humongous.

Your confetti went way up there.

But why aren't my bubbles
getting any bigger?

I'm never gonna make a bubble
big enough for my whole family.

And they'll never
get to try a crunchy taco.

What are you doing, Kelp?

Dancing.

-[upbeat music playing]
-[grunting]

But why?

Dancing gets the mad
feelings out. And then...

I feel better.

Kelp! You're doing it!

Doing what?

Whoa.

Dancing
is what makes you feel good.

And feeling good is what
makes your unicorn spark strong.

-The Kelp way.
-[all giggling]

I can't believe
I'm about to take
my first bite of tacos.

Dad, wait. I just learned
to count to seven.

So we all eat
when I say seven, okay?

One, two, three,

four, five, six...

-Uh...
-Seven!

Oh, yeah. Seven.

-[tacos crunching]
-[dramatic music playing]

Ew.

It's like biting seashells.

[blows raspberry]

It's, uh, interesting.

Thank you
for this experience, Kelp.

[Dad Tuskington
in muffled voice]
This is amazing.

-Dad?
-What? Oh, sorry. Um...

I'm gonna eat Scallop's.

No, Dad, it's ew!
