[Akiko] "Fadda's Day."

Aha!

-Oh!
-Ooh.

[giggling]

Hi, Ariel. Hi, Flounder.

[Axyl chirps]

[Axyl chirps]

[Axyl exclaims]

We came to play with you.

[Flounder]
And make kelp cookies.

-[Axyl chirps]
-[laughs]

We'd love to play
with you both today,

but I've got
a bit of a problem.

What is it?

You see, today is Fadda's Day
in the Crystal World.

Huh? Fadda's Day?

Fadda's Day is a special day
to celebrate dads.

We have that in Atlantica too!

Except our Father's Day
is tomorrow.

What do you do to celebrate
Fadda's Day, Akiko?

Well, I usually make my dad
a special gift.

And this year
I had the perfect idea.

[Axyl chirps]

[Akiko] Hmm.

Let's use this one!

I'm making
my father a jinbei. See?

I do see.

But, um, in case I don't,
what's a jinbei?

[giggles]
Here, let me show you.

That's a jinbei.

My father wears this one
all the time.

But he's always saying that he'd like
to have a jinbei that's more colorful.

So, I thought I'd make him
a colorful crystal jinbei.

That sounds like a great idea!

[sighs]
But there's just one thing.

What is it?

I thought making a jinbei
would be easy.

I have all
these crystals and materials.

But I don't know
how to make clothes.

It's harder
than I thought it would be.

Hey, do you think
you could help me?

[Axyl chirps]

I don't know how
to make clothes either.

Hmm.
But I know someone who does!

-Huh?
-Hold your seahorses.

I'll be right back! [chuckles]

I wonder what she's up to.

-I'm back!
-Wow!

Akiko,
this is my sister Ayanna.

-Hi, Akiko.
-Hello.

[Axyl chirps]

And you must be Axyl.

I'm so excited to finally
be here in the Crystal World.

Ariel talks about it
all the time.

Ayanna knows everything
about clothes.

Ariel told me you need help
making a crystal jinbei for your dad?

Yes! Do you think you could help me
make something like this?

Yep, I can definitely help
make this.

You know about crystals,
I know about clothes,

and together we'll make
the perfect present.

[squeals] Thank you,
thank you, thank you!

My dad is going
to love this jinbei.

And we'll be here to cheer you on
and help wherever we can.

-Let me see that photo again.
-Hmm.

-[Axyl chirps, exclaims]
-[gasps]

It's already looking so great.

Uh...

That sure is a gorgeous blue!

But will Akiko go with
the pretty purple instead?

Which will she choose?

[giggles]

It's... It's...

The blue! She picked the blue!
She picked the blue!

-[all cheering]
-Yeah! Blue! Whoo-hoo!

[laughs]

[giggles]

Okay, we have it all laid out.

Next,
we need the right string.

I've got you covered.

Perfect.
We have everything we need.

Now we can start making
the jinbei.

[Ariel and Flounder] Jinbei-jinbei!
Waka-taka-jinbei!

Jinbei-jinbei! Waka-taka-ooh!

A-K-I-K-O!

Go, Akiko!

-A-Y-A-N-N-A!
-Hmm...

[Ariel and Flounder]
Go, Ayanna!

[Axyl chirping]

Okay, I think we've got it.

-Wow!
-[Ariel] Beautiful!

Thanks, Ayanna.

I couldn't have made this
without you.

You fadda is going to love it!

Do you want to come with
and see how much he likes it?

We'd love to!

Mek wi go show him!

Let's go!

[Axyl chirps]

I have the jinbei.
You guys can follow.

You remember
how to drive, right?

Push button, turn wheel!
Piece of kelp cake!

Whoa!

-Oops!
-[all laugh]

-[Ayanna yelps]
-[Ariel yelps, laughs]

This sea mobile is fantastic!

And it's easy to drive too!

Sorry!

[♪ fantastical music playing]

Hello, new sailfish friend!

I think he wants
to play with us.

We can do that!

[cheering]

We can do that too!

[Ariel screaming] Whoa!

[all laughing and cheering]

[both gasp] The jinbei!

Ooh! See if you can grab it!

Ariel, slow down!

You were supposed to grab it!

You were supposed
to slow down.

[sighs] Okay. Now--

Uh-uh-uh. Forward.

[chuckles] Oh, yeah.

My house is just up ahead.

Goodbye, sailfish friend!

I can't wait
to give this jinbei to...

[all exclaim]

[chuckles] Lose something?

Who... we... wha...
how... who... ha...

Hey! That jinbei
sure is a lot smaller

-than I remember.
-[gasps] What?

[gasps]

What happened?

[gasps]

It looks like a string from the jinbei
got caught on something.

It's pulled
the whole thing apart.

I'm sure we can fix it.
Right, Ayanna?

I think so.

First we have to gather up all the string
before we can put it back together.

Hear that, Akiko?
It's going to be okay.

Oh, boy.

How did we manage that?

Just chasing that sailfish.

We have to be
getting close to the end.

Uh, friends, I think I found
the rest of the string.

[Akiko] Oh, no!

The string is all tangled up
into one giant knot!

That's the biggest knot
I've ever seen.

Oh, I don't know.
I think I've seen bigger knots than that.

No, that's the biggest knot
I've ever seen.

How are we ever
going to untie that?

Don't you worry, Akiko.

Axyl and I have got this.

-Right, Axyl?
-[Axyl chirps]

[Axyl chirps]

[straining]

Working on it...

-[Axyl chirps]
-[Flounder] Just pull that there...

Almost got it...

Yep. We're stuck.

Thanks for trying.

But now we have to untie the knot
and get Flounder and Axyl out.

-[chuckles]
-There has to be a better way.

Well, when I get a large knot
while I'm sewing,

I usually use a piece of coral
to pull the knot apart.

So we just have to find
some coral.

Let's look around.

Great, and we'll stay here
and, uh...

[Axyl chirps]

Yeah.

-Hmm.
-Hmm.

Hmm.

Hmm. [gasps]

-How about this?
-Let's try it.

[straining]

-Is it working?
-I think so! [gasps]

Maybe if I just...

-[grunts]
-[Axyl chirping]

-[Ariel] Oops.
-That knot must be really tight.

I think
we need something stronger.

[gasps] Jumping jellyfish,
that's it!

Think you could use your super strong nose
to help us undo this knot?

[sailfish clicks]

[both yelp]

[sailfish clicks]

-[yelps, laughs]
-[exclaiming]

[Flounder] Yeah!

-[sailfish clicks]
-We're free!

Thank you, sailfish friend!

[Axyl chirps]

-[all cheering]
-Thank you, friend!

Thanks so much.
You were so helpful.

[sailfish clicks]

-[Axyl chirps]
-Bye!

-See you soon!
-Bye!

Now that we have
all the string back,

can you fix it, Ayanna?

I can try.

But I don't know if I'll finish it in time
all by myself.

I guess I won't have a gift to give my dad
for Fadda's Day this year.

Don't give up!

We all watched you and Ayanna
make the jinbei.

Now, we can all help fix it!

Maybe with all of us
working together,

we'll be able
to finish it in time.

That's a glow-tastic idea,
Ariel.

Let's do it!

Ariel, you take this sleeve.

Flounder, you work
on the crystal stamps.

Akiko, you've got
the other sleeve.

And I'll do the rest.

[Axyl chirps]

You make sure the string
doesn't get tangled, okay?

[Axyl chirps]

Perfect, Ariel.
Just pull that string tighter.

I love that color, Akiko.

Here's some more string,
Ayanna.

Nothing is tangled!

Great work, Axyl.

[Axyl chirps]

I think we've got it.

It's even more colorful
than before!

Oh, my fadda's going
to love this!

-Whoo! So cool!
-Whoo! Yay!

And I couldn't have done it
without all of your help.

Thanks, best fins.

-Of course, Akiko!
-You're welcome.

Just wait
until he tries it on!

He's going to be so happy!

I love it!

Thank you, Akiko,

and all of Akiko's friends,
for making me such a special gift.

[all cheering]

Happy Fadda's Day.

[chuckles]

[Fernie] "The Coral Crab."

[♪ upbeat music playing]

Our dads are gonna love the sea berry jam
we make them for Father's Day.

It's so nice that your mom is going
to help us make the jam, Fernie.

My manman makes the best jam!

You're gonna have
so much fun making it!

What do you think
of these sea berries, Flounder?

[chomps] Mm-mm-mmm!

Mmm! Mmm!

They're very good.

[laughs] Well, I think we have enough
sea berries to make the jam.

Let's head inside and cook
with Ms. Mirlande.

You three have fun!

I'm off to make art
with my papa for Fet Papa!

Fet Papa?

I thought today
was Father's Day?

Fet Papa is what Fernie's family
calls Father's Day.

Oh, yeah! I forgot.

-Wait, you're making art with your papa?
-Huh?

-[giggles]
-I thought he was a farmer.

Oh, he is. The best farmer.

But that's not all he does.

When he's not farming,
he loves making art.

See all
those coral sculptures?

My papa made those.

[Flounder] So cool!

[Fernie] Papa's waiting
for me in the barn.

Have fun making jam!

-Thanks, bye!
-Adios!

What if I made
a jam sculpture?

[all giggle]

Bonne Fete, Papa!

[laughs] Mesi pitit an mwen.

Thank you. Are you ready
to make some art with me?

Yes, I am!

I had an idea
about what we could make.

How about a coral sculpture
of the Candy-Striped Hermit Crab?

[laughs] Aw, that's
a beautiful sea creature.

And a wonderful choice,
Fernando.

Let's do it!

[♪ upbeat music playing]

The only thing I love
more than making art

is making art with my son.

It looks fantastic, Papa.

Yes, it's looking quite good.

But I feel like
it needs something more.

Ah, I'm just not sure
what it is.

-[Ariel] Hi, Mr. Pierre.
-Hola.

Hello, Mr. Pierre, sir.

We made jam!

Bonjou, mes amis!
Did you have fun?

So much fun.

Mr. Pierre, Ms. Mirlande said to remind
you about helping Mr. Wahoo Fish.

Oh, yes.

I promised to feed his sea cows
and sea goats while he's away.

I'll be back as soon as I can.

Mwen renmen ou, Fernando.

-I love you too, Papa!
-Bye!

Adios!

Wow, Fernie, is this the sculpture
you and your dad made?

It looks fin-ominal! [giggles]

Your dad is the best farmer-artist
I've ever met.

Aww, thanks.

My papa thinks
it needs something more,

but he doesn't know what.

I have an idea!

What if I finish the crab sculpture
for my papa before he gets back?

-As a surprise.
-[Flounder gasps]

-Claw-some idea!
-Totally tails!

He'd love that.

I think I have the perfect thing
to add to it.

[all] Wow!

Cool, right? I found it
in the Crystal World.

Okay, here goes.

[all] Huh?

The crab sculpture!

-It's--
-Walking around!

The crystal
must be making it do that.

[Ariel] It really likes
your crystal, Fernie.

[all laughing]

Hey, wait a minute!
Where are you going, crab?

Ah! Careful, crab! Whoa!

-Watch out!
-Whoa!

We've gotta stop
that crab sculpture

before it causes trouble
around the farm!

[grunts]

[grunts]

-Wah!
-Ah!

Huh?

[screams]

Hey!

Our Fet Papa lunch!
The crab is ruining it.

Not on our watch!

[grunts, sighs]

[grunts] Gotcha!

Whoa!

[sighs]

And we didn't drop
a single kelp cake!

-[chuckles]
-[Ariel] Hmm.

Where'd the crab go now?

There!

What's it doing?

I think it's adding
more pretty stuff to itself.

Why is it doing that?

Well, some real life crabs
like to decorate themselves.

So maybe crab sculptures
do too.

How finteresting.

Uh, Fernie,
our finteresting friend

is headed for your sea crops.

Oh, no!

If the crab goes into the sea crop fields,
it's gonna disappear!

Now it's gonna be really hard
to find it

'cause the crops
are super tall and thick.

Don't worry, Fernie.
We'll find that crab.

Yeah, we've got this.
Come on. Siganme.

[Ariel] I don't see
the crab anywhere.

[Lucia] It's hard to see
anything anywhere.

Over there!

I meant over there!

-[Flounder] Gone.
-[Fernie] There!

-[Flounder] Gone.
-[Ariel] There!

[Flounder and Fernie] Gone.

Also, dizzy.

[all laugh]

-There!
-[Flounder sighs]

We've got it surrounded!

Get the crystal!

[screams, sighs]

-Where'd it go?
-Over there!

[Ariel] Let's paddle!

[♪ thrilling music playing]

Oh, no!
It's cutting the crops!

Look, there's a basket.

I can use magic
to catch the crab with it.

Basket, basket, fast and fab,

float and catch
this tricky crab!

[all cheer]

Let's grab that crab and get the crystal
off before Papa comes back.

[gasps] It's not here.

But we all saw
the basket cover it.

How did he escape?

[laughs] Hmm. Hmm.

-I think I know what happened.
-[gasps]

The crab must've cut its way out
of the basket with its claws!

Smart. But where is it?

Maybe it...

Uh, Fernie?

Does it always rain flowers
on your farm?

-It's clipping the sea flower bushes!
-Come on!

Whee!

[giggles]

[giggles] Flounder!

Sorry. The flowers
are just so pretty.

Where'd it go now?

-I don't see it.
-It's gone.

[Fernie sighs] I was only trying to make
the crab sculpture better for my papa.

But instead
I ruined Fet Papa.

[all sigh]

It's okay, Fernie.

You still made art
with your papa.

And you're the best
science-artist I've ever met.

Thanks, best fins.
But the crab's gone.

[sighs]

There has to be a way to get that crab
sculpture to go back into the barn.

Look! The crab lost
one of its pretty shells!

Huh? [gasps]

Jumping jellyfish, that's it!

Since the crab
loves pretty things so much,

maybe we can use some
to catch it!

Ooh!
That's a great idea, Ariel!

We can make a sea treasure trail
that leads to the barn.

-Love it!
-Yeah!

Come on, best fins.
Let's paddle.

[grunts]

[both exclaim, laugh]

[Ariel] Nice work!

Okay, now we hide and wait.

I think I hear the crab.

It's working.

Let's follow it.

Slowly.

[♪ tense music playing]

[all grunt]

[all sigh]

Quick, let's get inside
and close the door.

-Huh?
-[all gasp]

Now's our chance to get that crystal off
while it's distracted.

-[whispering inaudibly]
-Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

-[gasps]
-Okay. Wait, what?

Hey!

-Blub. Blub, blub, blub.
-[both chuckle]

Whup, whup, whup, whup.

Look at me and nowhere else!

-Whoo-hoo!
-Yeah!

-We did it!
-We did it!

Thanks, everyone.

[exhales] That took
a lot longer than I thought.

Sea goats and sea cows...

Fernando, our sculpture...

Papa, I was trying
to surprise you, but...

[chuckles] These sparkly pieces
are just what was missing.

I love all the pretty decorations
you added to the crab!

I hope it wasn't
too much trouble.

[laughs]

[all laugh]

Not too much trouble at all.

Bonne Fete, Papa!

[Pierre]
Mwen renmen ou, Fernie.

I love you!

I love you too, Papa.
