[Kelp] "Family Trip."

-No way.
-You can't believe it.

You won't believe it.
The Great Big Iceberg is this big.

-That big?
-Uh-huh.

That's enormous.
This trip is gonna be amazing.

You know it.

-We're gonna ride the Iceberg Express.
-Fastest current this side of the ocean.

Snack on seaweed-sicles.

Tastiest treat,
only found at the Great Big Iceberg.

And the best part...

We'll take a family picture
in front of the iceberg.

Just like this one.

Ah. I took the same trip with my dad
when I was a kid.

-♪ Gonna see the iceberg ♪
-♪ Oh, yeah ♪

-♪ Gonna see the iceberg ♪
-♪ Oh, yeah ♪

-♪ Gonna see the iceberg ♪
-♪ Oh, yeah ♪

-Snacks.
-Snacks.

-Wipes.
-Wipes.

That's it. All packed.

No thanks to those two.

-♪ Gonna see the iceberg ♪
-♪ Oh, yeah ♪

[Mom clears throat]

It's time. We gotta move.

We can't be late. Are you ready?
Do we have everything?

-I'm ready. Are you ready?
-[Mom] Honey.

We are ready.

In that case, let the Great Big
Tuskington Family Trip commence!

-[cheering]
-Let's go.

[gasps] Stop!

-[all] Huh?
-Puff. I forgot Puff.

Honey, didn't Puff go "puff"?

Crabby popped him, remember?

Now he's all flat.

That doesn't matter.
I'd promised to take him.

And a promise is a promise. Right, Mom?

Mm-hm.

Not over here.

Not under here.

We checked... One sec.

[panting]

...everywhere.

Not everywhere.
You didn't check the basket.

Oops. I forgot. I already packed him.

Dad, you've gotta say it again.

Let the Great Big
Tuskington Family Trip commence again!

-Yeah!
-Oh, yeah!

-We're off to the iceberg.
-[Mom] Let's go.

How fast is the Iceberg Express?
Is it scary? It must be scary.

Or maybe just a bit scary.
I can't wait. I can't wait. Whoa!

I can't wait either. You're gonna love it.

And there's a... Wait.

-Where's your mom and Scallop?
-[Mrs. Polypdopoulos] Yoo-hoo!

-Over there.
-Over here. Hello.

Look who we bumped into.

Oh, hi.

Actually, we're in a hurry, so we're...

Hi, Mrs. Polypdopoulos. Hi, Mr. Pearly.

Hmm. Okay. But just a quick visit, right?

Puff is coming on our family trip too.
Because he's family.

Have you ever met Puff? Let me find him.

Honey, why don't you show them next time?

We don't wanna miss the Iceberg Express.

You know what? I'll show you next time.
We don't wanna miss the Iceberg Express.

Oh, of course, of course.
Enjoy the iceberg.

Trip of a lifetime.

You know it.

-Bye.
-Bye-bye.

Quick, it's boarding.
It's already boarding. Hurry!

[all] Whoa!

No!

[Dad groans]

Does this mean we can't go
to the iceberg anymore?

No way. Not if I can help it.

Hmm.

We'll take that current.

It's going in the same-ish direction.
Come on.

-Yay!
-Okay.

Uh, nobody else took that current.
Maybe we should wait for the next express.

We can't waste any more time.
We got an iceberg to see. Right, kids?

-Yeah.
-Right, Dad.

-[groans]
-Dad, check out Mom.

-Sometimes you gotta go with the flow.
-I wanna flow.

Me too.

[grunts]

This current is fun.
It's like the opposite of express.

Dad, what's the opposite of express?

[giggles] Yeah, Dad,
what's the opposite of express?

We can swim faster than this.

We'll never get to the iceberg
at this rate.

-Come on.
-Whoa.

[Scallop & Kelp giggling]

[Scallop] Whoa!

Oh. Where are we?

I know. We're in the East End.

Now you can meet Cedrick.

He's a sea dragon. You're gonna love him.

[gasps] I thought I heard
some wee Tuskingtons.

And some bigger ones too, I see.

Mom and Dad, I presume?

You presume correct.

Cedrick, this is Mom and Dad.

Mom and Dad, meet Cedrick.

-Hi.
-Nice to meet you.

Greetings. Can I interest you
in some East End plankton pie?

Mm.

It's famous in these here parts.

Thank you, but we should be going.
We wouldn't want to impose.

Impose, shmose.

Us East Enders are known
for our hospitality and our pie.

[stomachs growling]

Well, it appears
the hungry tummies have spoken.

-It's hungry.
-Yeah.

-The kids are hungry. Just a quick snack.
-Huh?

Mm-hm...

[Kelp] Wow.

[clears throat] Don't be rude.

I'm saving my appetite
for the seaweed-sicles.

I've been dreaming about them all day.

-So beautiful.
-That was amazing.

Yes! Oh!

That was incredible, and unexpected.

-Gotta go.
-[Kelp] Oh.

Thanks for everything, but we gotta move

if we're gonna catch
the next Iceberg Express.

Where's the nearest stop? Hmm?

Oh, dear. I'm afraid the Iceberg Express
doesn't go through the East End.

-Huh?
-I think you'd be better off...

[both] Swimming!

We're swimming to the iceberg.

-Iceberg! Iceberg! Iceberg!
-Iceberg! Iceberg! Iceberg!

-Iceberg!
-Iceberg!

Iceberg!

[both] Iceberg.

Iceberg.

Iceberg.

Are we almost there?

Huh?

Are we there yet?

Ice-whatever.

[grunting]

-Look.
-Ooh!

-Sorry.
-[Kelp] Sorry.

[Dad] We're here.

Ready?

[all] Ready.

[groans]

Oh! Great. You made it.

-Huh?
-What are you doing here?

You made it sound so fun,
so we thought: Why not?

But how'd you beat us?

We just waited
for the next Iceberg Express,

and here we are.

-[gasps] Hmm.
-[groans]

Well, you're here now.
The iceberg is amazing.

There's quite a crowd.

Get a seaweed-sicle while you wait.

Mm. Delish.

-Yeah, Dad. Let's go get one.
-Yeah.

Oh, I've been dreaming about having
one of these seaweed-sicles all day long.

Ooh, ah...

[vendor] There you go.

Mm.

Huh?

-[laughs] Whoo!
-Sorry. All sold out.

Huh?

[groans]

I'm sorry, dear.

No, I'm sorry.

I wanted to give you all
the trip of a lifetime.

One you'd never forget.
But this trip has been a bust.

What are you talking about, Dad?
This trip hasn't been a bust.

It's been the best.

[Kelp] Yeah.

So we didn't get to ride
the Iceberg Express,

but we did get to ride the Dad Express.

Yeah, and we didn't get seaweed-sicles,
but we got to try Cedrick's famous pie.

-[stomach growling]
-Huh?

Oh.

Oh!

Mm, yum! This is good.

[both] Right?

And the very best part
is that we spent it all together.

And isn't that
what a family trip is all about?

How did you kids get so smart?

-I don't know.
-We just are.

They got it from me.

You know what?

I think it's time
we take that family photo.

-Yeah!
-Yay!

[Scallop] Woo-hoo!

[Dad] This is the spot.

-[Scallop] Huh? [groans]
-[Dad] Huh?

-Dad, it's too crowded.
-We won't get the iceberg in it.

It doesn't matter.
It'll have what's important in it.

-Now, you go there.
-I wanna go over there.

I wanna be next to Kelp.

Oh, okay.

Okay. Say, "Family."

[all] Family!

Trip of a lifetime, Dad.

[Dad sighs] Mm.

You know it.

[Kelp] "Great Great Grandicorn."

You were right. She does look amazing.

The Great Great Grandicorn
doesn't just look amazing.

She is amazing.

[Tutu] I heard she can turn invisible.

[Juniper]
I heard she can turn anyone invisible.

I heard she sleeps
on a rainbow too, Leroy.

I heard she can appear out of nowhere.

[clears throat]
Do I hear someone talking about me?

[all gasping]

Ha!

Is it really her? Is it really you?

You're...

just here?

She's really here.

-Amazing.
-What's it like sleeping on a rainbow?

When you sleep on a rainbow...

you don't get much sleep.
Those things are slippery.

She's funny. Of course she's funny.

-Who doesn't like to laugh, Pixie?
-And she knows my name. Ah!

I know everybody's name.

I also know that since I'm here,

you might like to learn
some cool Grandicorn spark, right?

That is exactly what we'd like to learn.

But can we do what you do?

You're so amazing.

Sure, I've done some uni-tastic things.
But deep down, I'm just like you.

-Wait, you're just like us?
-Yup.

-But you're awesome.
-Yup.

-So does that mean that we're awesome?
-[Grandicorn] Yup.

Oh! Awesome.

Now let's go learn some new spark.

Bloop!

Whoa, did we just magically go
from there to here?

Fun, right? But now it's focus time.

How would you kids
like to learn the art of... uni-shifting?

Shifting. Shifting.

What's uni-shifting?

Uni-shifting is the spark we use
to turn natural objects into everything.

Oh...

That is some advanced-level spark.

Oh, yeah, uni-shifting is tough, for sure.

That's why we practice,
so that one day, you can do that.

-Ready for your first assignment?
-Yes.

-I don't know.
-Maybe?

Great. Try to make one of these.

You think we can make a swing like that?

Sure. But it'll take some practice.

Get to it, and I'll be back later
to check out your swing.

Wait, you're not staying?

I'd love to, but I've gotta go
turn a taco into three tacos.

Uni-shifting makes me hungry.

You can do that?

Maybe. I'll be back by sundown.
Have fun. I believe in you. Bloop!

She believes in us? Do you believe in us?

[Kelp] I believe in us.

Let's start practicing
and see what we can do.

-Yeah.
-Okay.

Let's do this.

[Pixie] I'm doing it. I'm doing it!

[shouting]

I've never seen sticks that big.

I wasn't trying to make big sticks.

I was trying to make a swing.

To make this work,
I have to use a little extra sparkle.

-Huh? Where'd the shells go?
-What a cool disappearing trick.

Oh... The Great Great Grandicorn
wants to see a swing.

She doesn't wanna see nothing.

I got it. I'm doing it.

Uni-shifting champion.
I turned those rocks into...

Oh, they're still just rocks.

[groans]

Look, Ollie. Juniper found your shell.

-Can I try uni-shifting it?
-Go for it.

It's fun in here.

How can you be so happy?
None of us can uni-shift.

But we're doing other fun stuff.

We're not supposed to be
doing other fun stuff.

We're supposed to be uni-shifting a swing.
And we can't.

Maybe we need a snack break.
I brought seaweed pancakes.

-Yeah!
-Yes.

I helped my dad make these this morning.

They're funny-shaped.

I had to practice to get the shape right,
but then I did.

Oh, that's a nice one.

If you've got round ones in there,
why are we eating the funny ones?

All the shapes taste the same.

But you can have the round one, Juniper.

Mm...

Yeah, I like this one.

-Yum. Thanks.
-Delicious.

Who knew I'd like seaweed so much?

So should we try uni-shifting again?

Yup. We can't let
the Great Great Grandicorn down.

Maybe if we move like a swing
while we spark, we'll make a swing.

Huh?

Look what we made. It's amazing.

Yeah, amazingly bad.

But we're getting closer.
That's good, right?

[giggles] Oopsie.

This is so embarrassing.

We can't show
the Great Great Grandicorn this.

[Pixie] What if we don't?

-What if we show her something else?
-What do you mean?

Instead of showing her our mistakes,

let's show her the cool things we can do.

That's a great idea.

-Then we won't be embarrassed.
-I like the sound of that.

Okay.

What do you think, Kelp?

I think...
I'm gonna keep practicing my uni-shifting.

Ta-da.

Great job, everyone.

The Great Great Grandicorn
is gonna be so impressed.

Hey, I think I figured out
how to uni-shift.

That's cool, Kelp, but that's not a swing.

Not even close.

You can do a dance instead.

-Then you can join our show.
-Yes.

The Great Great Grandicorn
would love your dancing.

Dancing's fun,
but I wanna keep trying to uni-shift.

I'm getting better. That was my first try.

The sun is getting lower.
She said she'd be back by sundown.

Everyone ready?

-I am.
-Ready.

Me too.

Great Great Grandicorn,
we've got something amazing to show you.

I bet. I can't wait to see.

Wow.

The Great Great Grandicorn

So wonderful, so wise

And pose.

Her tail is beyond beautiful

And so are her eyes

She can fly past the stars

Because she soars up so high

Why aren't you performing
with your friends?

I kept practicing my uni-shifting,

so I didn't have time
to work on anything else.

And that's our show. Take a bow, everyone.

Okay, okay, okay.
That was some cool stuff you all did.

Love the effort.
But where's your uni-form swing?

You still wanna see our swing?

I do. That's why I asked you all
to make a swing.

-So we could see a swing.
-Well...

[all groaning]

We can't show you our swing.

We stopped trying to make it.

Okay. I see.

Are you mad?

I'm not mad, just a little confused.

I really enjoyed your performance,

but the goal of today
was to work on uni-shifting.

We tried,
but we're so bad at uni-shifting.

-See?
-Yes. That is what I wanted to see.

It is? But why? It's not right.

I don't care if it's right.
I just care that you try.

Messing up is part of the process.

That's good,
because I definitely messed up a lot.

[Grandicorn] Mistakes are how we learn.

-They are?
-Yup. Turn around.

You made that?

Yup. It's how I knew
how to make such a good swing.

Because I made that bad one first.
Several bad ones, actually.

Like my seaweed pancakes.

I had to make funny-shaped ones
before I could make a round one.

Right on.

Sometimes mistakes are the best part.

Because now we can have a, uh...

-What should we call this game?
-We should call it "Bubble Bonk."

Yeah. A "Bubble Bonk" party.

-You're it.
-Bubble bonk.

-You're it.
-You're it.

You're it.

I'm glad you kept practicing.
Your mistakes are so much fun.

Maybe we should all
practice uni-shifting some more.

-I'm in.
-Me, me.

Definitely.

Me too.
