00:00:23Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, and sea monsters of all stripes, to the ocean-famous Sea Stage
00:00:29Amphitheater, where it's always nice to see you, but it's so much nicer to be seen.
00:00:36As ever, I'm your host, Tony Longknee.
00:00:41I hope you've got your fins on today, because this is gonna be a bombshell, blockbuster,
00:00:47barn burner of an announcement.
00:00:50As we all know, that most marvelous, magical, manly holiday is fast approaching.
00:00:56Next Sunday is Father's Day.
00:00:59And in honor of all you number one dads out there, we're holding the annual Deep Sea Burp Contest that
00:01:06day at noon.
00:01:08That's right, lips.
00:01:10So everybody flex those blowholes and stretch those gills, because our annual ocean championship is up for grabs.
00:01:17And what better gift to give the beloved patriarch of your reef than the Deep Sea Burp Contest Championship Trophy?
00:01:26So get cracking, crustaceans, and find your motivation, mollusks!
00:01:31Sunday we'll be here before we know it, and a new champion will claim the crown and make their school
00:01:37proud.
00:01:38Bring your acid reflux, anglers, and we'll see you on Sunday!
00:01:44Wow!
00:01:45The Deep Sea Burping title!
00:01:47Just imagine it!
00:01:49That sure would spur a lot of opportunities!
00:01:52I bet you could get a full scholarship to any fish school of your choosing as Burp Champion!
00:01:57Yeah, it is what you make it, though.
00:02:00Just because you win a prestigious title doesn't automatically make you the world's oyster.
00:02:05Just look at my dad!
00:02:06Oh, right!
00:02:07I totally forgot he was the very first Deep Sea Burp Champion way back when!
00:02:13Say, how long ago was that exactly?
00:02:15A long time.
00:02:17Right!
00:02:18Well, I'll bet he did lots of cool stuff during his time in the limelight.
00:02:22Not really.
00:02:23He just came back home, put his trophy in the closet, and watched TV.
00:02:27What?
00:02:28How was that possible?
00:02:30Did he at least watch himself on TV?
00:02:33No, my dad avoided the press.
00:02:36He didn't gill any interviews, fit any autographs, or paddle any appearances.
00:02:42He just came home.
00:02:43He's always just been my dad.
00:02:45Wow.
00:02:47What would you do if you won the title, Charlie?
00:02:50Me?
00:02:50I don't even know how to burp.
00:02:52There's time to learn!
00:02:53Are you gonna enter the competition?
00:02:55No, why would I do that?
00:02:57Because it's fun!
00:02:58And it's a unique experience.
00:03:00And you can do a lot of cool things if you win, even if you don't win!
00:03:05Yeah, well, that'd also be a lot of pressure.
00:03:07Just cause who's my dad is.
00:03:09Who needs that?
00:03:10What about you?
00:03:11Are you gonna enter?
00:03:12I'm thinking about it.
00:03:13I've never burped either.
00:03:15Ha!
00:03:16I'm sure we'd be very impressive.
00:03:26Hey, Scroodle.
00:03:28Whatcha up to?
00:03:29Training!
00:03:30Oh yeah?
00:03:31You gonna enter the contest?
00:03:33Enter?
00:03:34Pfft!
00:03:35I'm gonna win!
00:03:36I've been burping since I was your age.
00:03:39Nobody can top me!
00:03:41Listen to this!
00:03:43Wow!
00:03:44You like that, huh?
00:03:45Don't sweat it.
00:03:47Maybe someday you'll be able to float him like that.
00:03:50Yeah, maybe someday.
00:03:52Hey, isn't your dad the first DC Bird Champion ever?
00:03:57That's him!
00:03:58Come on, Mucus!
00:03:59Yeah!
00:04:00Wow!
00:04:01What's that like?
00:04:02It's like anything else, really.
00:04:03He just pops to me.
00:04:05Right.
00:04:06That dude did squat with his title.
00:04:08All the champions after him became like celebrities.
00:04:12But not that dude.
00:04:14He just...
00:04:15Poof!
00:04:16Disappeared.
00:04:17Well, he never disappeared for me.
00:04:19He's been a good dad.
00:04:21I'll bet.
00:04:22Kind of a loser, Burp Champion.
00:04:25Nice to hear he's good at something.
00:04:29Well, I'm off to continue my training.
00:04:33I've got this in the net.
00:04:35But that doesn't mean it's easy.
00:04:37The best of the best are gonna be there next weekend.
00:04:40Gotta be ready.
00:04:42Ta-ta, Tilapia!
00:04:45Man, what a jerk!
00:04:47He's never won anything in his life!
00:04:49That's probably why he's so confident.
00:04:51He'll find out how tough it is on Sunday.
00:04:53My dad always said it was a real pressure cooker.
00:04:57Huh?
00:04:58You think your dad would want you to enter the contest?
00:05:01Dunno.
00:05:02We never talk about competing.
00:05:03He mostly watches TV and sleeps.
00:05:06Gotcha.
00:05:07What do you think he'd say if you won?
00:05:15Hi, Pops.
00:05:16Hi, Charlie.
00:05:17How was school today?
00:05:18Pretty good.
00:05:19I got an A in Miss Barnacle's class.
00:05:21Oh?
00:05:22Congratulations.
00:05:23How was Miss Barnacle?
00:05:25She's good.
00:05:26She said hi.
00:05:28Do you know each other well?
00:05:29Barely.
00:05:30We went to school together when I was your age.
00:05:32Wow, that was a long time ago.
00:05:37Yes, a long time ago.
00:05:40Was she as cool as you were back then?
00:05:42Cool?
00:05:42Oh, I was never cool.
00:05:45Pfft.
00:05:46You were the very first deep sea Burp Champion.
00:05:48I'd say that's pretty cool.
00:05:50I'd say that's pretty cool.
00:05:50And I'd say it was a different lifetime, my boy.
00:05:53You mean like an alternate dimension?
00:05:56Not exactly, no.
00:05:57I'll explain it someday.
00:05:59But not today.
00:06:01Oh, okay.
00:06:02Hey, you wanna practice some Burps?
00:06:04Burps?
00:06:05No, Charlie.
00:06:06Those days are behind me.
00:06:09Besides, Craftyfish is coming on.
00:06:11Craftyfish?
00:06:12What's that?
00:06:13A new show where all the fish evade the fishermen.
00:06:16It's so great watching those guys get mad.
00:06:19One guy snapped his rod and threw himself right into the lake.
00:06:23Ha ha ha ha.
00:06:24I'll check it out sometime.
00:06:26I'm gonna play in my room.
00:06:27See you later, buddy.
00:06:28Later, Pops.
00:06:36Ladies and gentlemen in Plankton of all persuasions, allow me to introduce the winner.
00:06:43And new deep sea burp champion, Charlie!
00:06:58Hey, come on, guys.
00:07:00I didn't want any trouble.
00:07:02Well, trouble's what you got, Squish.
00:07:05Yeah.
00:07:05What are you gonna do about it?
00:07:07Um, nothing.
00:07:09Uh, can't...can't we all just get along?
00:07:13Ha!
00:07:13Why would we get along when we could fight?
00:07:16And why would we waste our time competing against losers when we could wipe them out in advance?
00:07:22Consider your butt whipped, loser.
00:07:24What?
00:07:25What?
00:07:25You know what I mean.
00:07:27Whatever.
00:07:28Listen up, small fry.
00:07:30Nobody around here burps like I can.
00:07:32So don't even think about entering that contest this weekend.
00:07:37Yeah, don't waste your time.
00:07:38Okay, okay.
00:07:39I won't enter the contest.
00:07:41Pinkies swear?
00:07:43I don't have pinkies.
00:07:45Oh, that's right.
00:07:46And if you're not careful, we'll take your fins.
00:07:50Hey, you punks leave mucus alone.
00:07:53Says who?
00:07:54Look, it's the champs wrestling.
00:07:56His dad won the very first burping title.
00:08:00When?
00:08:00At the turn of the century?
00:08:02Yeah.
00:08:03Back when they gave Megalodon tees as trophies.
00:08:09What are you two still doing in fish school?
00:08:12How old are you guys anyway?
00:08:14Not as old as your dad.
00:08:16Yeah.
00:08:17At least Charlie's dad cares.
00:08:20Yours took one look at you and swam for the hills.
00:08:23Why I oughta.
00:08:25Cool it, Rip.
00:08:26We don't have to fight all the time.
00:08:28We got all the friends we need.
00:08:30We don't have to be friends to be friendly.
00:08:32By that logic, we don't have to be hungry to take a bite.
00:08:37Come here, champ.
00:08:42Ha!
00:08:43Saved by the bell.
00:08:45You twerps better swim fast after school.
00:08:49We'll be looking for ya.
00:08:51Jump!
00:08:55You okay, mucus?
00:08:56Yeah, I'm fine.
00:08:58Those guys are bullies.
00:08:59They sure are.
00:09:00But don't worry about them.
00:09:02Come on.
00:09:03We're gonna be late for class.
00:09:11Hey, live bait.
00:09:14Still feeling mouthy.
00:09:17Come on, guys.
00:09:18Give me a break.
00:09:19Oh, you want a break, huh?
00:09:21Okay.
00:09:22One break coming up.
00:09:29Ow.
00:09:29No.
00:09:30That's how it's done, Hook Holder.
00:09:33Yeah.
00:09:34Go tell your old man there's a new champ in town.
00:09:36And his name is Rip.
00:09:38Ah!
00:09:39Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:09:48Hello?
00:09:49Anybody home?
00:09:51Charlie?
00:09:51Is that you?
00:09:53You know it, kid.
00:09:54Come on in.
00:09:58Good to see you again, kiddo.
00:10:00To what do I owe the honor?
00:10:01I just thought I'd come say hi, rags.
00:10:04Do I need a reason?
00:10:05No you don't, Charlie.
00:10:07But I know you better than that.
00:10:09I can see the worry in your gills.
00:10:12You can?
00:10:13I can.
00:10:14You're just like your dad in that way.
00:10:16Lousy poker faces.
00:10:18I have a dilemma, rags.
00:10:20A dilemma?
00:10:21I got medicine for that, you know.
00:10:23It's a little chalky, but it'll get you regular in no time.
00:10:27What?
00:10:27No.
00:10:28I'm facing a problem and I don't know what to do.
00:10:31Oh.
00:10:31Is it dropsy?
00:10:33That little antibacterial fish food and a couple drops in your reef cave will clear that
00:10:38right up, kiddo.
00:10:39Gosh, no.
00:10:40Don't know what to do.
00:10:41Phew.
00:10:42Good.
00:10:42I mean, I know some good home remedies, but I'm no doctor.
00:10:47What is it, kid?
00:10:48They just announced a contest to crown the new deep sea burp champion.
00:10:53Ah.
00:10:54I heard about that.
00:10:55Boy, it takes me back.
00:10:57It does.
00:10:58Do you regret it?
00:11:00Regret it?
00:11:00I relive it every day.
00:11:02Sometimes I act out that championship round against your dad right here in my cave.
00:11:08All by myself.
00:11:10Pretty pathetic, huh?
00:11:11What?
00:11:12No.
00:11:12It's just...
00:11:13Well, it's kind of pathetic.
00:11:15Yeah.
00:11:15Don't buffer the blow or anything, kid.
00:11:18That reminds me of your dad, too.
00:11:20Brutal honesty.
00:11:21I wish that were the case, Rags.
00:11:23I'd love to ask Pops about this, but he just won't talk about it.
00:11:27Is it his weight gain?
00:11:28He's really ballooned these last few years.
00:11:31Must be all that TV watching.
00:11:33No.
00:11:33It's not that.
00:11:35It's...
00:11:36I'm thinking about entering the contest and competing for the title.
00:11:40Get out of here.
00:11:41Is that stupid of me?
00:11:43Tell me if so.
00:11:43I respect your opinion.
00:11:45Don't.
00:11:46Okay.
00:11:47That's all you had to say.
00:11:48I won't.
00:11:49No.
00:11:50I mean don't respect my opinion.
00:11:52What?
00:11:53Respect your own opinion.
00:11:55Follow your heart, kid.
00:11:57Don't ask anyone's permission to go for it.
00:12:00You think your dad asked anybody for permission to compete in that competition he won?
00:12:05We were your age.
00:12:07They didn't even allow fish that young to enter.
00:12:09We forged our papers just to get in.
00:12:12Nowadays, anyone can compete.
00:12:14Why wouldn't you?
00:12:15I don't know.
00:12:16It only seems like Pops regrets even doing it.
00:12:19Yeah, well, your dad's a complicated fish.
00:12:22I'll say.
00:12:23Sometimes, I don't get him at all.
00:12:25Join the club, kid.
00:12:27I can't speak for him.
00:12:29I wouldn't know where to start.
00:12:31But I can speak for myself.
00:12:33They used to call me riches, you know.
00:12:36Riches?
00:12:37So...
00:12:38I went from riches to rags.
00:12:40I hear it all the time.
00:12:42What's up with you guys?
00:12:44I don't get it.
00:12:45Too much, too soon.
00:12:47Our ideas were bigger than our fins.
00:12:50We basked for too long and the ocean passed us by.
00:12:53Who knows?
00:12:55Me and your dad saw things differently.
00:12:58But we kind of handled things the same way.
00:13:02I never thought of it like that.
00:13:03Well, you should.
00:13:05Listen.
00:13:05I can't say I'm leading by example.
00:13:08I hardly leave my cave.
00:13:11You've got your whole life ahead of you.
00:13:14Don't do as I do.
00:13:15But if you need advice, I'll be honest.
00:13:19The contest is on Father's Day.
00:13:20You think Pops will hate me if I enter?
00:13:23Hate you?
00:13:24Kid, I've never understood a thing that old fish has done.
00:13:28But I know one thing is a fact.
00:13:31Your dad loves you more than anything in this ocean.
00:13:34And that's not gonna change.
00:13:36Certainly not because of some dumb contest.
00:13:39Thanks, Rags.
00:13:41Sometimes it's nice to put things into perspective.
00:13:43I just have one more question for you.
00:13:46What's that?
00:13:47Will you teach me to burp?
00:13:48Oh, boy.
00:13:49Sure, kid.
00:13:50Thanks, Rags.
00:13:51Where do we start?
00:13:52Oh, let's see.
00:13:54These cave walls?
00:13:56The walls?
00:13:57Yeah.
00:13:57They haven't been washed in forever.
00:13:59You can start now.
00:14:01We'll talk after.
00:14:02Oh.
00:14:03Okay.
00:14:08You better smooch.
00:14:10You're gonna be chopped when we get a hold of you.
00:14:14That's right.
00:14:15We're gonna burp your scales off.
00:14:18What did I do?
00:14:19I already told you I won't enter the burping contest.
00:14:22I promise.
00:14:23I need to practice, Stephanie.
00:14:26Come back here so I can hit you with some burps and rattle your little skeleton.
00:14:31That doesn't sound like much fun, Rip.
00:14:33What about those rocks over there?
00:14:35Look at all that, Aljay.
00:14:37You could burp it to bits.
00:14:38It.
00:14:39Why would I do that when I can burp you to bits instead, small fry?
00:14:46Yeah.
00:14:47Ha ha ha ha ha.
00:14:48Burp.
00:14:50You call that a burp?
00:14:53This is a burp.
00:14:56Burp.

00:16:22No, I'm not on fish book or critter or crab chat
