Jason, Trini, Kimberly, Billy, Zack, and other students pour out of a classroom at Angel Grove High School. Trini can't wait to go scuba diving. Jason tells his friends, you won't believe the reef I found, it's awesome. Zack is looking forward to seeing really big fish down there. Bulk and Skull walk towards the lockers, they have fishing gear with them. Bulk pushes a student aside as he walks along. Trini is the first to notice Bulk and Skull and comments to her friends, you don't have to look far. Some of the biggest fish are right here. Bulk and Skull stop and face the teens. Bulk tells them, don't count on seeing any big ones dork, because they are going to be at the end of my hook. Skull adds yeah, his hook. Billy, Zack, Jason, Kimberly, and Trini are not impressed. Bulk opens his locker and lots of mostly fishing stuff falls out. Bulk and Skull try to catch the stuff, but most of it ends up on the floor. Trini tells Bulk, that's disgusting. Bulk doesn't know what she means. He walks over and picks up a can of bait off the floor. Bulk tells her, this is perfectly good bait. Skull adds, yeah, it will make us irresistible to fish. Just like with the ladies. Skull gives a wink. Bulk shakes his head in agreement. Trini tells Skull to get a life. Annoyed, Bulk asks Skull, what are you yapping about? Get the stuff, there is fish waiting to be caught. They head back over to the locker. Skull picks up a net, unaware that Bulk's foot is in it, and Bulk falls to the floor. Bulk glares at Skull, but Skull is amused. He tells Bulk, look Bulk, I caught one already. Bulk scrambles up and Skull stays a safe distance away. Skull walks backwards as he tells Bulk to take it easy as Bulk goes after him. Zack tells his friends, I don't think the fish need to be worried about those two. Jason invites Billy to come with them. Jason is a certified diving instructor. Billy declines the invite, he has a regrettable dislike of fish. Trini invites Kimberly along. Kimberly turns it down as well. No reason to spoil a perfectly good hair day. Besides Billy and I are going to the park for a picnic.
Rita has been watching the teens and is thrilled to discover Billy's dislike of sea creatures. Goldar, Baboo, and Squatt are with her. Goldar tells her this is the perfect time bring out your toxic Goo Fish, your evilness, and destroy them all! Rita replies, then what are you waiting for? Get to it Goldar!
Jason, Trini, and Zack are at the beach, getting into their wet suits. Jason tells them lets do a final equipment check. Zack agrees, like you always say, safety first. Trini can't wait to get down there. The fish and plant life is going to be beautiful. Jason instructs his friends to make sure your valves, gauges, and regulators are clear and working right and that your other equipment fit properly. The three teens make sure their equipment is safe. Jason asks if everyone is ready? Trini gives a thumbs up. Jason reminds them to remember the safety signals and to stay together. Zack tells his friends, let's do it.
Kimberly and Billy are at the park, ready to enjoy their picnic. Kimberly comments that it's a beautiful day for a picnic as she unloads the picnic basket. Billy tries to peek, to see what is inside the basket. Billy asks, what's for lunch? Kimberly replies, fish and chips. Billy is not too happy about that. Kimberly notices his expression and asks, is that okay with you? Billy tells her he will just take the chips, hold the fish, sorry. Kimberly is astounded at his extreme dislike of fish and asks what is with you and fish anyways? Billy replies I have had some humiliating experiences. It all started when I was little.
While on an outing, I attempted to recreate what I had recently learned about whirlpools. But my moving finger proved to be an exciting enticement for one of the fish below.
