[Kelp giggling]

[announcer reads on-screen text]

Okay. Ready?

Mm-hm.

{\an8}[gasps] No, wait.

{\an8}We go, da, da, da.

{\an8}then, da, da, da, again,

{\an8}then you go and I go, and then: Ta-da!

{\an8}Got it. Ready?

{\an8}-You make a great dance partner, Pixie.
-You too.

{\an8}-I need water.
-Me too.

{\an8}Last one to the stream
is a rotten fluffernut.

[both] Ah.

We just sighed the same.

{\an8}Huh?

I just love it
when the wind blows through my mane.

I just love it too.

[in unison] So breezy.

Kelp, I just figured out
something really, really, really,

really, really, really amazing.

That's six "reallys."

[Pixie laughing]

It's six. Trust me.

We both like dancing

and drinking from the stream
and warm breezes.

Yep, we do.

That means something big, don't you think?

Yeah, I think.

-What do I think?
-It means we're not just friends.

We're better than friends.

We're best friends.

We are best friends.

And as best friends, we need...

[Kelp] Whoa!

[Pixie] Best-friend horn toppers.

One for you and one for me.

I like this look. Thank you, Pixie.

What are best friends for?

Now come on. I have something to show you.

There's more?

Whoa. Fun clouds.

It's actually why I brought you here.

-Didn't you invite everyone here today?
-Yeah.

But I invited you early.

I wanted you to be the first to see.

[Kelp] Wow.

I could watch these all day.

-Kelp, we don't just watch them.
-Huh?

We ride them.

I love it.

I knew you would. Jump on one.

Whee! Whoa!

Whoa, whoa!

Uh-oh. Did you fall off?

No, I hopped off.

But the fun is staying on the cloud.

-Come on, try again.
-Uh...

[groaning]

Whoa.

Bumper clouds.

Even more fun.

Why do you keep hopping off?

Well, I guess because
I don't really like riding on them.

I don't like going that fast.
And the bumps? Not for me.

But that's impossible.

I love riding on the clouds.

That's great. Then hop back on.

But we're best friends.

We like the same things.

I like watching the clouds. And look.

Everyone else is coming.

Maybe they can ride with you,
and I can watch.

What do you think
about that idea, Pixie? Pixie?

I think I don't want to play anymore.

[Kelp] Pixie.

Kelp, where's Pixie's going?
She said she had a surprise to show us.

Knowing Pixie, it's gonna be really good.

Is it tacos? I hope it's tacos.

Kelp, is it tacos?

-Do you know what it is, Kelp?
-Mm-hm.

Sad Kelp? That's not a good surprise.

Pixie actually had a really good surprise.

-Whoa.
-Fun clouds.

Fun clouds.

And I know
she really wanted to show you all,

but she just ran off,
and I don't know why.

Let's ask her. Where did she go?

I don't know, but we should find her
and make sure she's okay.

-Okay. Let's go.
-We'll check all her favorite places.

He was supposed to like the fun clouds
because I like the fun clouds.

Right?

Like you two.

I can tell you're best friends
because you like to walk the same.

Never lose your bond.

It's so special.

[sighs]

[groans]

-Pixie? Pixie?
-Where are you, Pixie?

-Pixie!
-Where are you, Pixie?

Pixie!

Where are you, Pixie?

[both] Mm-mm.

[Tutu] Pixie? You in here?

I don't think she's in the log.

Hey, you never know.

Well, it's official.
She's not at the market.

But these were.

I still don't know
why she ran off like that.

It is strange.
Did anything happen before she ran off?

Yes, tell us everything.

Well, first I made my bed,
cleaned my room, danced a little,

had squid-ink pancakes
for breakfast, then I...

Okay. Maybe not "everything" everything.

[Pixie sighs]

Remember when we used to drink
from the stream together?

Huh?

Ooh.

Your friendship is so beautiful.

I used to have a best friend like that.

Aw. You're on his face right now.

Pixie!

Pixie?

Not Pixie.

But fun.

Pixie?

Uh... I don't think she's in the hole.

You know, I don't either anymore,

but it does feel good to dig.

So before she ran off,

you two shared your love of dancing,
drinking from streams,

and warm breezes?

Yep. Then she showed me the fun clouds.

She had a lot of fun
riding around on them.

But if she suddenly ran off,
something must have upset her.

-What?
-Maybe I upset Pixie.

[Juniper] Kelp.

What's this thing?

Huh?

It's her best-friend horn topper.

-The good news is that she was here.
-Yeah.

We need to keep checking
in her favorite places.

Yeah. We'd better keep looking.

[groans]

[sighs]

Aw.

Keep doing everything
together, little frogs.

Don't lose your best friend, like I did.

-[Kelp] Pixie! Pixie!
-Aw.

I'm thinking about Kelp so much
it's like I can hear him.

[Kelp] Pixie? Pixie!

-There you are.
-It's Pixie!

We found her!

I knew she'd be at the blindersploot tree.

Hey, Juni. Why don't we hang back?

-Why?
-They just need a second.

Pixie, I missed you.

You came looking for me?

Of course I did. You're my best friend.

And you ran off.

Why'd you run off?

I was sad that we couldn't be
best friends anymore.

Why can't we be best friends anymore?

Because... Because...

Look at the frogs.

I'm looking, but I don't get it.

Best friends are supposed to do
and like all the same things.

Look at the way these frogs hop the same.

I loved the fun clouds,
but you didn't like them at all.

So we can't be best friends.

Really? I'm not sure that's true.

Of course it's true.

See the frogs?

Huh. One liked splashing in the water,
the other one didn't.

I think we are best friends
like the frogs.

You know how I know?

Because we had so much fun today.

And when you ran off,
I was worried and I missed you.

I missed you too.

And it's because we're so different
that we became friends in the first place.

It is?

Yeah. If I had been just like you,

then you wouldn't have had to teach me
about being a unicorn.

That's true.

Maybe it's even a good thing
that we're a little different?

Mm-hm.

And we can still be best friends?

-Of course.
-Mm.

-Oh, no.
-What?

I took off my horn topper.

I got you, best friend.

-Thank you, Kelp.
-What are best friends for?

-Whee! Hey, Kelp?
-Yeah?

-Five, six, seven, eight.
-Five, six, seven, eight.

{\an8}[announcer reads on-screen text]

{\an8}Here we are in my sunny spot.

{\an8}Feel the warm sun on your back.

Take a deep breath in.

{\an8}Ollie, can I breathe out now?

Hmm.

{\an8}-What are you looking at?
-It's here.

{\an8}My floating white rock.

{\an8}It doesn't come often.

That's why it's always so special
when I see it.

Oh! Look, it sprays water too.

{\an8}That's not a floating white rock.
That's the White Whale.

My rock's a whale?

Are you for real?

{\an8}[Kelp] Yeah. The White Whale is my friend.

{\an8}They come by once a year
on their way to warmer waters.

{\an8}My rock's a whale.

{\an8}Just magic.

{\an8}There must be so much magic under the sea,
and I don't know any of it.

{\an8}I agree. The sea is magical.

{\an8}And the White Whale is the best.

We always throw a party
and cheer as they swim past.

But the White Whale's there,
and you're here.

Oh, no. You'll miss the whole thing.

Nah, they're still pretty far away.

That's why they look so small.

They're actually really big.

How big?

Well, they're just one whale,

but they're as big
as maybe a hundred of these clouds.

No way.

That's big.

It would be such a dream to see
the White Whale up close like that.

Yep.

Imagine, I might even be able
to reach out and shake their fin.

Yep.

But we all know that could never happen.

Why could that never happen?

[Juniper] Why could what never happen?

Why could what never happen, I said?

Why can't Ollie come underwater with me
and meet the White Whale?

A unicorn underwater?

Now, that's funny.

[Kelp] I'm a unicorn. I go underwater.

You don't count.

[Ollie] Do you really think I could?

Well, Kelp can, obviously.

But before we met him,
unicorns didn't even go out in the rain.

-Do you know how to swim?
-No.

I can teach you.

Yeah, Kelp can teach me.

What about breathing?
How are you gonna breathe underwater?

Oh, right. That whole breathing thing.

I can make you a bubble, for your head.

Yeah, Kelp can make me a bubble.

Okay.

Well, I guess I'm here
to help however I can.

Me too.

I'm here to help too.

But before we all help,
what's the White Whale?

I see a white dot or something.

Is that them?

You wanna go under the sea
to meet a white dot?

Actually, it's not a white dot.

It's Kelp's friend the White Whale.

And up close, they're the size
of a hundred elevator clouds.

They're bigger now.
They're getting closer.

We've gotta get to work

if we're gonna make you
underwater-ready in time.

Yes!

[humming]

There, I'm ready to get underwater-ready.

-What's next?
-I teach you how to swim.

Hmm.

Kick, kick, kick.

Kick, kick, kick.

This is teaching him how to swim?

Yep. In the water,
if he kicks his legs like this,

he'll be swimming.

Just be supportive.

-Kick, kick, kick.
-Kick, kick, kick.

Kick, kick, kick.

Ollie, if this is gonna work,

you have to actually go in the water.

[gasps]

But I, uh, just did my hooves.

Water isn't gonna ruin your hoof polish.

The sand feels so squishy.

[laughs] Squishy, squishy, squishy.

Juniper, watch where you're galloping.

Come on, Ollie. Just take one step.

That's it. Now the other hoof.

There you go.

I did it. I'm in the water.

You've only got two hooves in the water.

You need your whole body in the water
if you're gonna meet the White Dot.

-She means the White Whale.
-Yeah, the White Whale Dot.

-Come on.
-You've got this.

Keep going. One step at a time.

-You got this.
-Yeah. Keep going.

Now all you've gotta do
is kick like we practiced.

[Ollie] Kick, kick, kick...

Way to go, Ollie!

-You're doing it!
-I'm swimming. I'm swimming.

-Go, Ollie!
-I'm swimming.

-You're swimming.
-I'm swimming!

-Yeah, you are.
-Woo-hoo!

I can't believe it.

I'm going to go underwater
and meet the White Whale.

It's all thanks to you.

The Whale Dot's bigger now.

That means they're closer.

It's time.

Bye, Pixie, Juniper.

The next time I see you,
this hoof will be the hoof

that's shaken the fin of the White Whale.

You got this.

[Juniper] Have fun, sea unicorns.

-Ready for your head bubble?
-[squeals] Ready.

Whoa.

It'll feel a little different
putting your head under the water.

It didn't work.

That's strange.

Here, let me try again.

I don't get it.

I've taken bubbles underwater before.

But you've never taken a bubble
that was around a unicorn's head.

Does that mean I can't?

-No.
-Your spark has always been special.

We don't know what it can and can't do.

Not even the grown-up unicorns understand
the spark behind your head bubble.

Don't worry, Ollie.
We can still find a way.

[Scallop panting]

There you are.
We've been looking everywhere.

They're almost here. You don't wanna
miss the White Whale, do you?

It's okay, Kelp. You need to go.
I don't want you to miss out.

Actually, you need to go.

Hmm?

Kelp, what are you doing?

But if I have your head bubble,
what will you do?

Tell the White Whale
I'll see them next year.

Someone's gotta come already,
or we'll all miss them.

Ollie's coming.
Take care of him, will you?

It's okay, Ollie. We've got you.

I can't wait for you
to meet all my friends.

Thank you, Kelp.

Don't thank me yet.

We've gotta make sure
my head bubble works on you.

[Cruz] We got you, Ollie.

It works!

[all cheering]

[giggles]

Yay. Woo-hoo!

Woo-hoo.

Yay.

Woo-hoo!

Look.

Wow. Cool.

Whoa.

Hi, Waverly. Hi, Cups.

Hi, Theo. This is my friend Ollie.

Hi, Mrs. and Mrs. Shellska.

-Hi, Scallop.
-Hi.

[Scallop] Hi, Mr. Pearly.

Hi, Mrs. Polypdoupolos.

Oh, Mom, Dad, look who I brought.

This is Ollie. He's a unicorn like Kelp.

Why, hello, Ollie.
We've heard a lot about you.

Nice to meet you.

Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Tuskington.

Kelp's told me so much about his family.

I'm so happy to finally meet you.

Speaking of, where is Kelp?

He's not coming, Mrs. T.

Why not? He loves the White Whale.

He'd never miss them.

He's okay, Dad.

He's up with Pixie and Juniper.

There was only one
of these bubble thingies.

And it's Ollie's dream to meet
the White Whale and shake their fin.

Kelp made my dream come true.

Oh.

Well, not yet, but...

Whee!

[whale singing]

-[Cruz] White Whale!
-[all cheering]

-They're here!
-We love you, White Whale!

We love you, White Whale!

The White Whale is here.

They're enormous.

Beautiful and enormous.

[squeals]

Wow.

Psst. Shake their fin.

[singing]

So nice to meet you.

And Kelp says hi too.

[singing]

-[Pixie] Wow.
-[Juniper] Did you see that?

They really are the size
of a hundred elevator clouds.

Thanks for visiting, White Whale.

See you next year.

[Juniper] Swim safely, White Whale.
