The Boy Fish chorus begins humming the melody.
Narrator: The fish see the New Boy Fish talking with the Girl Fish. (Everyone turns their heads to look at them.) He is convincing her that they should explore the big world together. His plan is for both of them to meet in disguise at mid- night and jump out of the bowl together.
The chorus looks alarmed and begins explaining, through pantomime, to the Grandmother Fish what they've over- heard. She puts her fin to her mouth and furrows her brow like "The Thinker", then wags her fin a few times before raising her fin to gesture she's got it. She takes out her smartphone and call the Boy Fish. He answers her on his, looks stunned, then shakes his head in agreement."
The chorus finishes humming as the New Boy Fish and the Girl Fish exit on one side and the Boy Fish exits on the op- posite side.
Narrator: Grandmother fish has advised the Boy fish to arrive in disguise a few minutes before midnight. Then he can jump out of the bowl with the Girl fish himself.
This would have worked out well, but once they were both in midair, they pulled off their masks and found out that it was the New Boy fish instead of the Girl fish sailing in the air! Both fish had a look of major shock and surprise.
They landed in a very spooky place. Large crab claws were seen as shadows along the walls. It was a new fishbowl. The boys were in trouble and needed help.
