Speaker 1: for today's adventure? Me too? Let's go. Hey, Omar, do

15
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: you have all the gear ready? Said Marina. Marina and

16
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: Omar we're going on a very fun scuba diving adventure

17
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: with their family. Have you ever gone scuba diving before? Oh? Goodness,

18
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: gracious me, neither. That sounds a little scary, but they

19
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,639
Speaker 1: are super duper brave. Scuba diving is where you put

20
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: a mask over your face and you have flippers on

21
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: your feet. That's that's the fun part. And you also

22
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 1: wear an oxygen tank on your back. Have you ever

23
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: seen a scuba diver in a scuba suit with a

24
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: tank on their back? Do you know what is in

25
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: that tank on their back? Yeah? Oxygen? And and why

26
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: do we need oxygen to breathe? Yes, oxygen is very

27
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: important for breathing. If we didn't have that, then there

28
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: would be no scuba divers. Well, Omar and Marina were

29
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: very experienced scuba divers. They love to dive to the

30
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: deepest parts of the ocean, the deepest, darkest, scariest places,

31
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: which I would never go. But they're way braver than

32
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: I am, and they love to go exploring. Well, today

33
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: they were at the beach at the ocean with their

34
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: family and about to go on a Scooba adventure, but

35
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: they decided last minute to go on a whale watching ship,

36
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 1: a ship that goes out to the ocean to watch

37
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,679
Speaker 1: the whales. Yeah, really, really cool. Have you ever seen

38
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: a whale before? Yeah, they're ginormous and they're kind of slow.

39
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: And did you know they talk like us? And if

40
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: you can talk in slow motion, then you can talk

41
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: to a whale. Also, Well, Omar and Marina were on

42
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: this ship and as they were just all loading onto

43
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 1: this whale watching ship, something strange was going on. You see,

44
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 1: the ocean was much lower than normal. And maybe it's

45
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: just a low tide, which means the water is lower

46
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: than normal. And I'm I'm sure it's nothing to be

47
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: worried about. Or maybe it is. Hey, Marina, come over here.

48
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: I think this is the best spot. Omar found a

49
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: great spot on the ship to stand out and look

50
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: over the edge to watch for whales. Omar and Marina

51
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: had met a lot of whales in their scuba diving

52
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: adventures in the ocean, but they had never seen one

53
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: from my ship, which they were really excited for. Uh ah.

54
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: As the ship sailed out into the ocean, everyone was

55
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: all talking about how the water was very low. Even

56
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: the captain said, hey, everyone, please put your life jackets

57
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: on because the water has been very strange today. It

58
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: is usual we are much higher, but today it is

59
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: lower and I'm not sure why. Oh my, said Marina. Omar,

60
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: what do you think is going on? I don't know,

61
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: he said Omar, but I can't wait to see, you know,

62
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: giant whale. And pretty soon a big spray of water

63
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: came flying out of the ocean. Do you know what

64
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: that is a sign for? Yeah, that's gotta be a whale.

65
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: Omar and Marina grabbed their cameras and started to take

66
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: pictures of the whales. And this whale came right up

67
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 1: next to the boat and they were so excited to

68
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: see him. But then it made a sad sound. M Oh, no, Marina,

69
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: did you hear that, said Omar, Yes, it sounds like

70
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: it's crying. Everyone else on the boat was looking at

71
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 1: a whale on the other side of the ship, so

72
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: no one else saw this giant, very sad whale. Omar

73
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: reached down and said, are you okay, Omar said, and

74
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: the whale looked up at him. I don't think he'd

75
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 1: ever heard a person talked whale before. He was very surprised,

76
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: and the whale said, no, I'm not. The ocean is draining.

77
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: What the whale began to tell Omar and Marina that

78
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: the ocean was starting to drain. There was some like

79
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: a drain like in our bathtub. There was a drain

80
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the ocean that somehow it had

81
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: gotten knocked open. This was not supposed to happen pretty

82
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 1: soon the ocean was gonna be completely empty. Don don

83
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: done that would be terrible. Oh no, do you think

84
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: sharks would start running around in the cities and start

85
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: fighting people's toes. Oh yeah, the sharks need to stay

86
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: in the ocean. All the ocean creatures need to stay

87
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 1: in the ocean. We have to save the ocean, Omar shouted.

88
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: Marina started to think, all right, what do we do?

89
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: What do we do? What do we do? They both

90
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: didn't know, But then all of a sudden, Marina came

91
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: up with an idea. Wait a second, what if we

92
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: go back to the beach. Wasn't there that silly crab

93
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: that we always see there every year? Maybe he knows.

94
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 1: Oh yes, Crusty the crab, he was over on the

95
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,919
Speaker 1: beach and he can They know how to talk to him,

96
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: and he often knows like the secrets of the ocean

97
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: of what's going on. And so as the whale boat

98
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: tour came to a close, they went back to the shore.

99
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: Omar and Marina ran over to this crab, Rusty the Crab,

100
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 1: as fast as they could. There he is said, oh,

101
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: it was a pretty hot day. And both Omar and Marina,

102
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: we're getting a little sweaty. Hey Christy, um, we have

103
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: a really important question. Do you know why the ocean

104
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: is draining? I don't know why the ocean is draining. No,

105
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. Oh, well, we

106
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: just met this whale out in the middle of the

107
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: ocean and he was very sad, saying that there's some

108
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: kind of drain at the bottom of the ocean that

109
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: got left open and the ocean is completely draining out

110
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: of it. Are that's not good, mates, not good at all.

111
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: I've been down there once before and I've seen the

112
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: drain he speaks of. It's a very dangerous place and

113
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: not many creek there's no verities, Crusty the Crab, can

114
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: you take us there? We're scuba divers. We can get there,

115
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: said Omar. I don't know if you want to do that,

116
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: but if it's to say the ocean, then II, mates,

117
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: said Crusty the Crab. The three friends, Omar, Marina and

118
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: Krusty the Crab jumped into the water. Thankfully, Omar and

119
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: Marina already had their scuba gear on, and so as

120
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: they swam deeper and deeper, deeper and deeper, they went

121
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: to the ocean floor. The floor is a very quiet place.

122
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 1: It's also pretty dark, but don't worry. Omar and Marina

123
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: both brought flashlights. All right, Crusty, do you know where

124
00:08:52,679 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: it is? Yeah, it's over here. We're getting closer, mates, Crusty.

125
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: The crab got closer and closer, and all of a sudden,

126
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:11,319
Speaker 1: there it was. It looked exactly like a ginormous bathpub drain.

127
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: Who put this here? Said Marina. I don't know. It's

128
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: always been here and it gets cleaned sometimes, and I

129
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: guess the cleaner forgot to put the lid back on.

130
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: Oh well, okay, let's grab it and on the count

131
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: three push it back on. Hurry. Omar and Marina grabbed

132
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: the other side of the top and they pushed and pushed,

133
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, pop, Yes, it popped back

134
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: on the drain, and the drain was closed. Our good job,

135
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: might ease, said Crusty. The grab Omar and Marina saved

136
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: the day. Great job, guys, we alway is need to

137
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: save our ocean, right, yeah, we don't want it to

138
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: drain away, because then all those creatures would lose their home. Well,

139
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: they say, of the ocean, And now it's time for

140
