- [Narrator] It's a beautiful
underwater day in the ocean.

And baby fish, Muggles along
with his best friend, Joy,

is scouring the seabed
for yummy algae!

- Joy, I can't think of anyone
better to search for algae

than with you!

- Same here, Muggles!

What could possibly be better

than doing what
you were born to do

with your best friend in the
whole world by your side?

- Nothing,

it's fin-tastic!

[laughing]

- [Narrator] And here
is professor Shark.

He leads his school of
fish and sea creatures

with a strong, but caring fin.

And he's always happy to see
his school's youngest fish,

Muggles and Joy.

- Muggle!

Joy!

What a wonderful
day we're having!

The currents are calm

and the sun's lighting
up the ocean surface

like a million jewels!

Oh, I love days like today!

- So do we, professor Shark.

- That's right!

Jesus sure has
blessed us with lives

and such a beautiful
underwater universe!

- You little fish sure have
your minds in the right place!

In fact, all of our
fellow sea creatures

could learn a lot from you two!

- Really, but we're
still so young?

How could Joy and I possibly
teach anyone anything of value?

Especially older, bigger fish?

- Well Muggles that's easy,

by not losing sight of
the simple blessings

Jesus has bestowed upon us.

Like this great big, beautiful
ocean that surrounds us.

You swim in his riptide,
serving your creator

and living your
lives to the fullest.

- Wow I never thought of it
like that professor Shark.

- Well now you can, Joy

and rest assured Jesus is
very, very pleased with you,

both of you.

Say you two,

being that you're
both so grateful

for what you have,

maybe you could help with a
little problem we're having.

- A problem?

Of course.

- Yeah we love solving problems!

- Just ask Algebra Albacore,

we don't quit till
we get it right.

- I see,

but it's not that
type of problem

I'm speaking of, Muggles.

This is a problem
of personal nature

with a dear, dear friend of ours

here in the great wide ocean.

- Oh who is it professor?

- Yeah and how can we help?

- Why it's scary Henry.

- Scary Henry?

- Scary? Henry?

- Yes scary Henry,

as you know he's always
had a bad reputation,

but lately it's been
getting even worse.

It seems Henry is unhappy,

but we're not sure
why he's so unhappy.

He could use a little pep talk

from two of our best
and brightest little
fish in the sea.

- Us!

- Yes you two always
seem very thankful

and understanding of the fact
that we don't need very much

to notice and
appreciate the wonder

that exists around us every day.

- Do you want us to try talking
to scary Henry, professor?

We could let him know

that no matter what's
going on in his life,

life itself is a gift.

- Yeah and it's never that bad

as long as we have all
our fins and gills,

life's just peachy.

Even if we don't have
all our fins and gills,

it's still peachy!

- Right, remember
Clive the porpoise?

- Who could forget,

lost his dorsal fin in
that tsunami last year.

- And discovered that he could
swim faster in the currents

as a result.

- Streamlined.

- That's true my little fish,

why don't you go
find scary Henry

and try to talk
some sense into him.

If he needs some company
invite him back to our reef,

no one should isolate themselves
when they're feeling down.

It only compounds loneliness.

- We'll get right
on it professor.

- Yeah off we go,
come on Muggles!

It's a feel good mission.

- In Jesus's name.

- Amen.

[bubbling water sound]

- [Narrator] Muggles and Joy
swim off to find scary Henry

and get to the bottom
of why he's so unhappy.

- There he is, hey scary Henry.

We haven't seen you around
the reef in a while,

how are you doing?

- Life stinks like whale gas.

- Oh that's gross.

- Come on now,
it's not that bad.

- Right, what's the deal Henry?
You seem down in the dumps.

- What do you care?

You're two little fish with
your whole lives ahead of you.

Me, I don't even have
a reef to call home.

- Oh Henry that's a terrible
way to look at things.

- Yeah look on the
bright side big guy,

in the sea we're all family

and if you need a reef to
call home, come back to ours.

- Our coral's open
for you any time.

- Well okay.

- That's it?

Just eh okay?

- What, you want me to do some
surface breaks or something?

- Well no, look all we're saying

is you may not be
our same species,

but we think of you
as family, Henry.

- And so does Jesus.

- Don't forget about him, he
loves us all unconditionally

and if we're alive on
this earth we're home,

because he made
us and provided us

with an amazing playground
in which to thrive

called the ocean.

- And I don't know
about you Henry,

but there's no place
else I'd rather be.

- That's cool, you
two should go play,

I'm not much fun.

- But you can be, scary Henry.

- Yeah you try being
the life of the party

when everybody calls
you scary Henry.

It's easier said than done.

- I have an idea,

we'll go talk to Mrs Wuddley.

She's an old fish and
she's been swimming

around these waters
for a long time

and she likes everybody.

- And everybody likes her,

she's bound to have
some wisdom to share.

- Come with us Henry!

- I'm good you guys move on,

if she says anything helpful
you know where to find me.

- Okay Henry if you're sure.

- Bye now, don't let the seaweed
tangle you on your way out.

- Eurgh, I hate it
when that happens.

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy find big old Mrs Wuddley

just as fast as their
little fins can carry them,

which is surprisingly fast.

- Hi Mrs Wuddly, remember us?

- Joy, Muggles,

it's been so long.

My how you've both grown,

you were both hatchlings
the last time I saw you.

- Time flies when
you're having fun!

- It does indeed,

so tell me,

to what do I owe
this wonderful visit?

- Our friend is in need Mrs
Wuddly, he's feeling really down

and has lost sight of the
important things in life.

- Which is the same
as simple things.

- Well that's right Muggles

and I'm sorry to hear
about your friend.

It sounds like this friend
could use a lesson in gratitude.

- Gratitude?

- Yes it comes out of the
habit of giving thanks.

Exercising regular
gratitude to God

can work wonders in our lives,

and our bad moods.

- I see your point,
I never get crabby

when I remember to regularly
thank Jesus for everything.

- At times like this

it's never a bad idea

to refer to the good
book, my sweet baby fish.

Like psalm chapter nine,
verse one tells us,

I will give thanks to the
lord with my whole heart,

I will recount all of
his wonderful deeds.

Let your friend know that,

no matter the struggles or
turbulence he currently faces,

Jesus is never out of sight.

When his children call
on him he will answer,

always.

[whimsical music]

- [Narrator] Thanks
to Mrs Wuddly's words,

Muggles and Joy
returned to scary Henry

with some new advice

that hopefully yields
a new reaction.

- Hey Henry, feeling any better?

- Do I look like I'm
feeling any better?

- Yeesh, so Henry we
spoke with Mrs Wuddly,

- And?

- And she let us know

that through Jesus all
things are possible,

that no matter
what we're facing,

faith in him and praise
to him and thanks to him

will return his love to us

and as a result,

make our hearts richer
and more fulfilled.

- Wow Joy, you
said that so well.

- Hmm you know I'm a little
more inspired just hearing that.

- Well then try this too,

psalm 9:1 tells us, I will
give thanks to the Lord

with my whole heart.

I will recount all of
his wonderful deeds.

- And he's got some
serious wonderful deeds

if you think about
it, just look around.

That's a smile, I see a smile.

- Oh that's definitely a smile.

- You for sure know how
to make a guy feel better.

- All in a day's
work in the ocean.

- We didn't do anything Henry,

it was all Jesus's doing,

it always is.

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy returned to the reef

to see professor Shark

and tell him all they've
learned about being thankful.

- Joy!

Muggles!

Were you able to
find scary Henry?

- We sure were, professor!

- And he's more
like happy Henry.

- Really?

Oh that's wonderful,

how in the sea did
you open his eyes?

- Well Mrs Wuddley
helped a little.

- [Muggles] And
Jesus helped a lot!

- Ah as he is known to do,

my little fish.

As he is known to do.

- [Narrator] With a
heart full of gratitude

and love for Jesus,

little Muggles and
Joy head out to sea

for another fun
filled adventure.

- Here we go Joy!

- Let's go Muggles!

- Woo hoo!

- Yay!

[waves splashing]

- [Narrator] It's a
beautiful day in the ocean

and little fish Muggles
and his best friend Joy

are swimming back to their reef,

after a fun day
in the jet stream.

- Joy I have a lot of
fun with a lot of fishes,

but you're by far my best
friend in the whole ocean.

- Thanks Muggles, there's
no one on our coral reef

nearly half as cool as you.

- Well of course I'm
cool, I'm an ocean fish,

my body temperature hovers
around 37 degrees celsius.

- Hmm are you sure
you're not a clownfish?

- [Narrator] Low and
behold, it's professor Shark

who always has a mission
or a lesson ready

for his youngest fish.

- Muggles!

Joy!

Welcome home my dearest fish.

- We're glad to be
back professor Shark.

- Yeah it's not
easy swimming around

with all these new
predators in the sea,

makes me thankful for friends.

- Great job fishes,

but I need to ask you to go
back to the wide open sea.

- Go back out?

But why?

We were gone so
long already today!

- Right!

If I eat any more, I'm afraid
I might burst my scales!

- What do I always say Joy?

Swim with your mouth closed,
so you won't gobble plankton.

- Well it seems there's
an issues on the seabed.

It's our old friend Marlo.

- Marlo the swordfish?

What tangle can he possible have

that he can't cut
himself free from?

[laughs]

- Marlo wasn't paying attention

and got himself stuck in seaweed

and as well all know,

if he can't swim and keep water
rushing through his gills,

he can't breathe.

And if he can't breathe well.

- Oh no

- We'll save him
professor Shark,

you can count on us.

- I know I can Joy, that's
why I'm asking you two.

- Which way do we go?

- Yeah, do we have coordinates?

We'll find him fast if so.

- I'm afraid not, I'm not
sure exactly where he is,

but his distress signal
was picked up by Pickles.

- Good if he sent a distress
signal we'll tap into it

and hone in on Marlo in a flash.

- But we're tiny,

I hope we can swim fast enough.

How long has Marlo
been stuck professor?

- Several minutes at least,

there's no time to spare,

I know that!

Pickles is out
there now searching,

he has a couple minutes
headstart on you two.

- [Narrator] Muggles
and Joy realize,

their friend is in trouble

and they have to help
Marlo any way they can.

- We won't let Marlo
down professor.

- Absolutely not, we'll
go find Pickles right away

and make triple sure
Marlo is rescued.

- Muggles,

Joy,

I'm so proud of your
willingness to help others.

You know the importance
of friendship don't you?

- We know we care
about our friends.

- Exactly!

Why is it that friendship
is so important professor?

- Love and friendship
are the glue

that holds our
world together Joy.

And just as importantly,

they're gifts from Jesus to
be cherished and honored.

- We'll do everything
in our power

to help a friend in
need professor Shark.

- We'll go find Marlo
and Pickles right now.

- God speed my little ones,

I pray you find and free
our friend Marlo at once.

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy swim like never before

to find Pickles and
help their friend Marlo.

- I've lost Marlo's
distress signal Muggles.

It's just gone!

- [Muggles] I lost it
too, which way do we go?

- Pickles.

- Oh hi Joy.

- We heard about
Marlo is he okay?

- Yes he did it, he freed
himself from that seaweed.

You should have seen
him, it was amazing.

- We came as fast we
could, how did he get free?

- His sword, he is a
sword fish you know.

So he used his nose

to slice right through
those pesky weeds.

No seaweed could
hold that fish down.

- Of course it can't, thank
goodness he's built for speed

and packs a lot of power
into that body of his.

- This is awesome news, Pickles,

can we see Marlo?

Which way do we go to find him?

- Yeah we want to
congratulate him.

- And make sure he's okay.

- Sure thing, Marlo would
love to see you guys

but be careful out there.

I don't wanna get
another distress signal,

you know what I'm saying?

- Don't worry we don't
want to send one.

- Ha ha!

- [Narrator] Muggles
and Joy swim quickly

to meet their friend Marlo.

- Marlo, thank the
breaking waves you're okay.

- We came as fast as we
could, are you injured at all?

Do you need anything?

- Muggles!

Joy!

What are you baby fish
doing all the way out here

in the big open sea?

- We heard you needed us.

- And we're your friends.

- Wow I've never had friends

who'd risk their
lives for me before.

I don't know what to say!

- You don't have to
say anything to us.

We want to help and
know that you're safe,

just because we care about you.

- Yeah, Jesus gave us a
great friend in you Marlo

and we honor our friendship,

because we honor
his gifts to us.

- We're so different,

some animals might wonder
what do itty bitty fish

have in common with
a big swordfish.

But we don't need to be the
same to be great friends.

- Right!

In fact, what makes
us so different

is part of what makes
us so compatible.

- We appreciate you Marlo.

- [Joy] And we wanna
be your friends

for a long, long time to come.

- Wow you guys, aw thanks.

- Don't mention it big guy.

- Yeah anytime.

- But don't make a habit

of getting into this
kind of trouble, okay?

- For your own good.

[laughing]

- That's a great
lesson in friendship

and an awesome thing you've
done today little fish.

Just wanting to take care
of a big swordfish like me,

without asking a
thing in return.

But I have a reward for you.

Follow me!

- [Narrator] Thanks
to their friend Marlo,

Muggles and Joy have
found an algae bed

that stretches as far
as their eyes can see.

It's more algae than their
little stomachs can even hold

in one sitting.

- Wow Marlo, that is amazing!

- I've never seen an algae
bed like this in all my life.

- All two weeks of it.

- I had just spotted this
bed on my morning swim

and was headed back to
tell the fish on your reef

where to find it,

when I swam into that seaweed
and got all tangled up.

- And by coming to help you
we ended up finding it anyway.

- Funny how that works isn't it?

- Jesus sure works
in mysterious ways.

Hey the sun's going down up
there, it'll be dark soon.

Let's feast on
some of this algae,

then get back to the
reef and tell the others.

Tomorrow we can
all swim out here.

- And eat till our
hearts are content.

- And our stomachs are full.

- That sounds great you guys.

You know you remind me of David
and Jonathon from the bible.

- We do?

How so?

- Well in the old
testaments, book of Samuel

it says after David had
finished talking with Saul,

he met Jonathon the king's son.

There was an immediate
bond between them,

for Jonathon loved David.

From that day on Saul
kept David with him

and wouldn't let him return home

and Jonathon made a
solemn pact with David,

because he loved him
as he loved himself.

- Wow that sounds
like some friendship.

- Tell us about
their pact Marlo.

- Well the pact between
David and Jonathon

included Jonathon giving David
the clothes off his back,

his tunic, his sword,
his bow and his belt.

Jonathon showed his
loyalty to David

by giving David all that he had,

including his weapons.

Some time later when
David fled Saul's wrath

he told Jonathon about his
fears that Saul wanted him dead.

In response Jonathon actually
turned against his own father.

Jonathon valued
David's friendship more

than his position as heir
to the throne of Israel.

That was the strength of
the friendship between them.

- Wow.

- Maybe it's an extreme example,

but we can learn a lot of
lessons from the bible.

And I feel like you two fish

showed me this level
of friendship today.

There are many perils
in the open ocean

and it's oftentimes no
place for baby fish,

but you two came to find
me without hesitation.

So,

know this,

you'll have a friend
in Marlo forever.

- [Narrator] Muggles and Joy
returned to see professor Shark

and tell him all they've
learned about friendship.

- [Professor Shark] Muggles!

Joy!

You're back!

Is Marlo all right?

- Yes professor Shark,

we found Marlo and talked
with him for a good while.

- Turns out he didn't
need our help after all,

but he was very
appreciative of the offer.

- I had a feeling he'd be okay,

that Marlo is one tough fish

and did we learn anything
of friendship today?

- We sure did, Marlo shared
a bible story with us

and we learned that
the bond of friendship

is one of the strongest
and more cherished gifts

Jesus has given us.

- Yeah we'll never turn our fins

on our friendship, professor.

- Any of our friendships.

- Friends till the end.

- Amen my little fish,

amen.

[Hawaiian music]

- [Narrator] With a
heart full of gratitude

and love for Jesus,

little Muggles and Joy head out

for another fun-filled
adventure in the sea.

- Here we go Joy!

- Let's go Muggles!

- Woo hoo!

- Yay!

- [Narrator] It's a
beautiful day in the ocean

and little fish Muggles and Joy

are swimming back to their reef

after exploring other
reefs for the first time.

- Joy, we sure did
check out lots of new

and exotic coral reefs today.

- We sure did Muggles,

some of those fish live
like kings and queens!

- [Narrator] Lo and behold,

here's professor Shark

he will be very
interested to hear

what his littlest
fish have been up to.

- Muggles!

Joy!

Welcome back, what have
you two been up to?

- Hi professor Shark,

we swam around to so
many coral reefs today,

introducing ourselves
to new schools of fish.

I feel like my little
fins might fall off.

- And we snacked on
lots of algae too,

it grows dense out in some
spots in the open ocean.

- So dense that we couldn't
possibly eat it all,

so we started collecting algae.

- And passing it out to the
fish at the reefs we visited.

- It sure is a great icebreaker

to show up at some
stranger's coral reef

with a load of
yummy algae for them

and their offspring to feast on,

while you all get acquainted.

- I'll bet it is, great
job Muggles and Joy.

I'm sure those other fish

are so very thankful
for your generosity

and we here at home appreciate
all your hard work too.

- Thanks professor.

- Don't mention it, mingling
is what we fish do best.

- It sounds like you
collected quite a bit,

how in the world did you
two find so much algae

to feed our neighboring reefs?

- Patty the whale told
us about a brand new bed

where amazing algae grows.

- Ah!

Good friend Patty!

- She came across it when
she was singing one morning

and thought of us.

- And when we saw it,

we realized there was
so much fluffy algae.

We just had to share and
deliver it to other fish.

- We could have just told
them where to find it

but we were already there,

it didn't seem like a big deal
to collect for the others.

- Yeah I mean, fish swim nonstop

we deserve a little
downtime sometimes.

- You have a point
Muggles and Joy,

that's so nice of you both.

And you two possess
unbelievable strength

for such young fish.

- Strength?

I guess it does take muscles
to carry that much algae.

- Oh that's not the strength
I'm referring to Muggles.

Like the bible teaches us,

real strength is found in
serving, not being served.

- Wow,

really?

- Really.

- So by giving the algae away
instead of just taking algae,

we got closer to Jesus?

- Indeed Muggles

and I'm so proud of you both,

you've done such good today.

Why don't you take
the rest of the day

to just play and be joyful.

- Okay.

- [Narrator] Muggles and Joy
run into their friend Fizzy

who explains to
them a little more,

why it's better to
give than to receive.

- Hi Fizzy!

Long time no see.

- Yeah how go's it Fizzy?

I heard your family moved
into a new coral cave.

- We did,

it's so cute.

Way bigger and more colorful.

How are you guys doing?

- We're great.

- Yeah we found a new
algae bed this morning

and distributed algae to
all the surrounding reefs

free of charge.

- Oh wow, that was nice of you.

I'm sure those fish
are very happy.

- They were surprised for sure.

- I'll bet,

it's not every day

that two little fish show
up at someone else's reef

to give away precious algae.

- It was pretty nice of us huh?

- Yeah we're pretty cool
little fish aren't we?

- Yes but be careful of
reveling too much in pride

Joy and Muggles.

- What do you mean Fizzy?

- Once Jesus said
to his dinner host,

when you give a
dinner or a supper

do not invite your
friends, or brothers

or relatives, or rich neighbors,

for they will invite you in
return and you be repaid.

But when you give a feast
invite the poor, the crippled,

the lame and the blind.

Then you will be blessed,

for they have no
way of repaying you

and you will be rewarded

when the upright
rise from the dead.

- So giving from the
heart because we want to

is better than expecting
praise or reward,

or getting something in
return for our generosity.

- That's right Joy.

- And Jesus would
rather be humble,

not proud about our good
deeds done in his name.

- Exactly Muggles.

- We should do something
nice for Patty,

she showed us the new algae bed

without asking a
thing in return.

- Right, but what can
two tiny fish like us

do for a big 'ol
whale like Patty?

- Don't let her hear you
call her that Muggles!

She's a girl you know!

- Keep up the good
work fish friends.

I think I'll learn a
lesson from your kind deeds

and scout some coral
caves for everyone.

Then see if any fish

would like to come
and join our new spot

with me and my family.

- That's awesome Fizzy!

- Yeah let us know how it goes,

maybe we'll come relax
at your cave sometime.

- Sure thing, see you soon!

- [Narrator] Muggles
and Joy swim up, up, up

to see their friend
Patty the whale.

- Hey Patty!

- Joy, Muggles, what bring
you two back out today?

- We just wanted to thank you

for showing us the
algae bed this morning.

That was more delicious
algae than we've ever seen.

And our neighbor
fishes were delighted

by all the gifts we delivered.

- Isn't that wonderful,

well I'm happy to
have been of service.

- We'd like to give you
a gift as well Patty.

- Me?

No one's ever given
me a gift before.

- Well we're about
to change all that.

Follow us!

- Okay

- [Narrator] Much
to Patty's surprise,

Muggles and Joy prepared a gift

that their beloved whale
friend will not soon forget.

A yummy seabed littered
with plump crustaceans,

a big whale's favorite treat!

- Okay Patty, here we are!

- Wow.

- What do you think?

- Look at them all!

Crustaceans are my
favorite, thanks you guys!

- Don't mention it,

you were so kind to us earlier

we wanted to do something
nice for you too!

- Aw you shouldn't have,

all I did was show
you guys an algae bed.

- That's not all you did Patty,

you gave us an awesome gift

and didn't ask for
a thing in return!

- Yeah and as a result we
were able to share algae

with each and every fish
around us in all directions.

- It felt great to give it away

and that was all because
of your generosity.

- And now we'd like
to deliver something

that you can enjoy.

- Your very own crustacean farm.

- You guys, what did I ever do
to deserve such good friends?

- You've always been
good to us Patty,

kindness comes back around!

- Enjoy!

- I will, you guys come
back and see me again soon!

I'll be easy to find,

just look for the biggest
whale you can find,

stuffed full of shrimp.

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy return to their reef

to see professor Shark

and tell him all they've
learned about serving.

- Muggles!

Joy!

Did you find Patty the whale?

- We sure did professor.

- And we gave her a
gift of crustaceans,

her favorite!

- Oh my, I bet
she was overjoyed!

- She sure was.

- The look on her
face was priceless.

- And fulfilling Jesus's plan
for us was even more priceless

wasn't it?

- Yes

- Serving others without
being asked or coerced,

rewards our souls in
ways we never imagine.

See, god created us to
be good to one another

and when we exercise his plan,

we feel better about ourselves.

- Wow I understand.

- Yeah that's amazing.

- Jesus sure is awesome
professor Shark.

- Oh that he is Muggles,

that he is.

- Let's go think

of who we can do something
nice for tomorrow.

- Yeah!

- I'm so proud of
you little baby fish!

Now rest up,

I'm certain tomorrow will
be just as magical as today!

- Hooray!

- Praise Jesus.

- [Narrator] With hearts full
of gratitude and love for god,

little Muggles and Joy
swim forever onward

to be of the best
service they can be.

- Time to serve, Joy!

- Let's go Muggles!

- Yeah!

- Yahoo!

[whimsical music]

- [Narrator] It's a
beautiful day in the sea

and little fish Muggles and Joy

are swimming back to their reef,

after a fun day
frolicking in open water.

- Today was such
a fun day Muggles!

I love playing in
the open water.

- It sure is a nice break

from scouring the reefs and
ocean floor, I'll tell you that.

- But we didn't do the
homework professor Shark

gave us for the day!

All we did was play!

Do you think professor
Shark will be upset

that we're coming back without
having done our homework?

- [Muggles] Hmm nah,

we'll just tell him the
riptide's strong today

and we couldn't swim in
one place long enough

to study the corals.

- Or we could say that
the riptide was so strong

it blew all the corals we
were supposed to study away.

- Yeah.

- Then we'll be sure to
study extra hard tomorrow

to make up for it.

- Absolutely.

- [Narrator] And here he is,

professor Shark, the greatest
teacher in the ocean.

He teaches his pupils with
firm, but gentle fins.

- Muggles!

Joy!

What have you fishes been up to?

Did you study those corals
like I asked you to?

- We had a heck of a
time professor Shark,

the currents are so strong.

- We could hardly settle
on a reef to study at all.

- We'll make extra sure
we study hard tomorrow,

to make up for it.

- My little fish,

our other students inform me

that they observed you
playing in the open water,

all day long.

- Oh.

- I'm so disappointed
that you two

decided to lie to
me about your day.

I've always admired
how hard you study

and like to give all
the fish in our school

the benefit of doubt.

Unfortunately

I see now that I
can't always trust

what you tell me.

- Oh professor Shark,

I'm so sorry.

- Yeah we didn't
mean to lie, honest!

- I know you didn't,

you two have always been among
our school's best students.

However, you're both young
and prone to flights of fancy.

You didn't study

and then lied about it.

- I feel terrible.

- So do I, I didn't
mean to make myself

and certainly not Joy feel
so ashamed and let down.

- That's what dishonesty
and lying do Muggles.

They hurt us as well as the
ones we tried to deceive.

- I understand that now.

- I can see this makes
you feel terrible,

so I'll forgive you two,

but I'd like it very much

if you got together with
your reef mate Mr Flips

and went to see Mr Sushi.

Perhaps he can shed some light
on the power of moral purity

and a clear conscience.

My little fish,

you feel badly for a reason.

If you're truly sorry

then this can be a
lesson well learned.

- We'll go right now professor.

- We want to make it right.

- Go on then Muggles

and Joy.

I'll speak to you
both when you return.

[Hawaiian music]

- [Narrator] Muggles and Joy
swim to meet up with Mr Flips

and learn why moral purity
and a clear conscience

are so very important.

- Um, hi Mr Flips.

I don't know if you've heard.

- About you guys lying
to professor Shark?

Yeah I heard about it.

- Oh great,

now the whole reef will
think we can't be trusted.

- Well you did tell a lie.

- But we didn't mean it, we
usually study hard every day!

And it's not like
we lie all the time.

- Yeah we just started playing
and lost track of time.

We didn't want the professor

to think we were being lazy.

- But you were being lazy!

- I know, but--

- Wouldn't it have
been better to fess up

and tell the truth?

Just say you made a mistake?

- Yes.

- Remember Muggles and Joy,

what the book of
Timothy teaches us.

Don't let anyone look down
on you because you are young,

but set an example
for the believers.

In speech,

in conduct,

in love,

in faith

and in purity!

- Wow

- It's a beautiful passage eh?

Try this one,

don't let anyone look down
on you because you are young,

but set an example
for the believers.

In speech, in conduct,

in love,

in faith

and in purity.

- My gosh.

- Let it sink in.

Professor Shark wants
me to send you guys

to see that curmudgeon Mr Sushi.

If he won't set you
straight, nobody will.

You ready to sail?

- Ready as we'll ever be.

- All right then, he's
four knots that way.

Have a good swim!

- Okay.

- [Narrator] Muggles and Joy
swim off to see their friend,

the grumpy Mr Sushi.

- Hey Mr Sushi.

- What are you two little fish

doing so far from your reef?

- Professor Shark
sent us to see you!

- Oh so tell me,

what do you need?

- Well,

Muggles and I,

we kind of, um.

- We blew off our studies

and then lied about
it to professor Shark.

- Geez you make it sound so bad.

- We were bad Joy,

I can see that now.

- Oh my, I always thought you
two were good little fish.

Only a few weeks old,

two.

- See?

Our reputations are gonna
be plankton from now on!

- That is unnecessarily so, Joy!

Why Muggles's right,

what you two did was wrong.

The great thing about our faith

is that in his infinite wisdom,

Jesus forgives.

- Even for two lying fishes

who don't deserve
a second chance?

- Oh Joy

in Jesus's eyes

we all deserve

and get

our second chance

if we want one.

The curse of god is on
the house of the wicked,

but he blesses the home
of him who does right.

Surely he scoffs
at the scoffers,

but to the modest

he ever shows favor.

- Wow.

- Now why don't you
fish come with me,

I have something I
would like you to see.

- [Narrator] As a result
of their genuine sorrow

and regret for the
mistake they made,

Mr Sushi leads the little fish

to a secret place,

where sits an old sunken ship.

- Here you go fishy,

this sunken ship
is a secret place.

Only a few of us
ocean old timers

know about.

- Wow

this place is amazing.

- Yes,

what's even better

there is so many a coral,

a seaweed,

a fish and a seashell!

You can study and learn

so many new things.

Your teacher will be amazed.

- This will be like
playing and learning,

all rolled up into one.

- Adventures and learning!

- I can't wait get started!

Thank you Mr Sushi.

- I can clearly see

that you two regret the
choice you made earlier,

and that your dishonest actions

are weighing heavily

on those small fins

and so can Jesus.

- Do you think Jesus
forgives us Mr Sushi?

- He forgives you!

And he always
welcome your honesty.

- Oh Mr Sushi we can't
thank you enough.

We'll be honest and
upstanding from now on.

Always in his name,

that's a promise!

Thanks Mr Sushi.

Hey Muggles, doesn't
this beat lying?

- Sure does, lying feels crummy,

but having a clear
conscience feels great.

- Let's get studying!

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy returned to the reef

to see professor Shark

and admit all they've
learned about moral purity

and clear consciences.

- Well, did you learn
anything valuable today

little fish?

- We sure did professor Shark.

- We learned that moral
purity and a clean conscience

are both more
important than we knew.

- They're the best way to
honor ourselves, our loved ones

and Jesus.

- Muggles, Joy,

I'm so proud of you two!

You've shown you can
learn from your mistakes

and be better fish
as a result of them!

- We understand now professor

and we won't make that
same mistake again.

- Oh and we have a
little surprise for you.

- A little surprise?

- Yes, after we told
Mr Sushi what we did

and how sorry we were about it,

he led us to a
secret, sunken ship.

- We've learned so much
about coral, sea sponges,

secret treasures
and sea creatures

that live in the deepest waters.

We are going to tell
you all about it!

- Well, well

how wonderful!

I'm excited to
hear all about it.

See the blessed
things that can occur

when we follow Jesus's plan.

- We do.

- We'll never stray
again professor,

we love you, we love our reef

and we love Jesus too!

You can count on us.

- Oh my wonderful little fish,

you've made me very proud today.

Very proud indeed.

[water bubbling sound]

- [Narrator] Full of
gratitude and love for god,

little Muggles and Joy head out

with clear consciences
and pure hearts.

- Ah I feel great Joy!

- So did I Muggles.

- Praise god!

- [Narrator] It's a calm,
pleasant day in the ocean

and little fish Muggles and Joy

are returning to their
brand new coral reef,

after strong currents
destroyed their old one.

- Muggles we did it!

All of us fish
banded together today

and found ourselves a
brand new reef home.

- Fishtastic!

No nasty old currents can
keep our school down Joy.

The fish will always rise.

- Go fish team!

[Muggles and Joy laughing]

- [Narrator] And here is
the famous professor Shark,

his school has seen
peril more than once

during his years as teacher,

but just like always

he guides his fish through
troubles with faith and grace,

in Jesus's name.

- Hi professor Shark.

- Hello my fish,

I want to commend you on
a job well done today,

I'm so,

so proud of you.

Praise be to Jesus that
we're blessed with young fish

as reliable as you two!

- Flattery will get you
everywhere professor.

- No need to thank us,
we're honored to serve,

you our teacher

and god our creator.

- Oh my wonderful little ones,

you should think about
teaching a Sunday class

in our new reef,

for our even littler ones.

They could learn a thing
or two from your resilience

and resolve.

- Hmm maybe we will.

It'd be a real privilege
to help guide small fish.

- Yeah and we could give
'em lots of homework

to keep 'em occupied.

- Oh now, now Muggles

let's not get carried away.

You've learned a very
important lesson today.

With the unfortunate
loss of our old reef,

we could've given
up and scattered our
schools to the wind,

but we didn't!

- No way, we love our school.

- We all do Joy,

but love sometimes isn't enough

for creatures to bounce back
from misfortune and failure.

Sometimes faith

and perseverance are required

to regain what we had
before a hardship.

- I see,

we had faith that we could
keep our school together

and we persevered in building
our new home quickly.

- And now we're even
stronger than we were

before that natural disaster.

- Exactly and part of exercising
strength is helping others

who've been subjected
to misfortune.

Our friend Boo Cakes is
also having difficulty,

as his long time
seabed was washed away

by the currents.

- Oh no, we need
to go check on him.

- Yeah we need to find him
and make sure he's okay.

- That's the spirit!

God speed my little ones,

I look forward to
hearing how Boo Cakes

is handling his bad luck.

- [Narrator] Muggles and Joy
swim to meet up with Pete

the wacky trumpet fish who
can direct them to Boo Cakes.

- Pete did you hear
about Boo Cakes?

- Whoa,

I sure did.

- Have you spoken to him?

Is he okay?

- He's feeling down right now

but his faith is strong.

- Well faith is half the battle.

Let's go see him,

maybe we can help his mindset.

- Or maybe we can
help him rebuild,

us fish never quit!

- Go fish team!

- I'm sure Boo Cakes would
be happy to see some friends!

Head that way, all the way
to the tall blue corals,

you can't miss him!

- Thanks Pete.

- [Narrator] Muggles
and Joy swim out

to see their good friend
Boo Cakes the manta ray.

- Boo Cakes, we're so sorry
to hear about your seabed.

We lost our reef.

- But we rebuilt and
now our reef's bigger

and better than ever!

- That's nice,
I'm happy for you.

- Hey Boo look alive
it's not so bad.

You still have your health
and we're still your friends.

- And Jesus still loves you.

- For sure, we can always
count on Jesus no matter what.

- Through good times and bad.

- Especially bad.

- So I hear,

but I loved my seabed

it was all I had.

- Aw come on Boo, cheer up!

It isn't so bad that
it can't be fixed.

- Joy's right Boo Cakes,
overcoming great difficulties

is but one of the gifts
Jesus has bestowed upon us.

- Yeah it's through
faith and him

that we can find the strength
we need to bounce back

after failure or misfortune.

- Yeah,

how so?

- Well as Jeremiah 8:4 tells us,

this is what the lord says,

you know if a man falls
down he gets up again

and if a man goes the wrong way,

he turns around and comes back.

- Wow.

- And proverbs 14:32

tells us that the wicked
are crushed by disaster,

but the godly have a
refuge when they die.

- Now that's how
we handle failure.

- But how can I find
a new spot to live?

I'm just one manta ray.

- Don't talk about yourself
like that Boo Cakes,

we're all perfect
in Jesus's eyes.

We were made for a reason

and we possess all the
tools we need to serve him,

which leads us to
our own success.

- Why don't we look for
new seabed spots Boo Cakes?

Don't stand around being sad,

some action will
make you feel better

and it's also the best way

to honor Jesus's
investment in us.

- Okay if you think it'll help.

- We do.

- [Narrator] Boo Cakes goes
along with his fish friends

in an effort to feel
better about things.

It doesn't happen right away,

but when it does he starts
feeling better and better.

- What do you think
about this reef Boo Cake?

- I love it!

- You see Boo Cakes?

Having faith and working
hard towards a goal

does wonders for your attitude!

- It does!

Maybe I can settle
someplace new,

after all.

- Yes.

- And maybe it can be even
better than your old spot,

like our reef.

We lost everything,
rolled with the punches,

then rolled up our fins and
came back even stronger.

- Sometimes Jesus lets things
happen for a reason Boo

and while it might not
be apparent at the time,

there's always a valuable
lesson waiting for us.

- You know I think you're right,

maybe this new seabed
will be better for me

and all the other rays too!

By my calculations the
square footage of this area

is three times my old place.

- You'll have more
room to stretch out

and you'll be able
to house more rays.

- I do love company,

thanks for stopping by you guys.

I don't know what
I'd've done without you,

I was really low.

- Which isn't a bad place for
a manta ray to be generally.

- Different kind
of low, Muggles.

- Ah gotcha.

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy returned to their reef

to see professor Shark

and tell him all they've learned
about dealing with failure.

- Hi professor.

- Joy, Muggles,

you're back so soon.

How'd it go?

- Wonderfully, we helped
Boo Cakes find a new seabed

and it's larger
than his last one!

- It was awesome,

a dozen new manta rays
came to check it out

and there was room
for all of 'em.

- A dozen rays?

That's great.

I bet they're beside themselves.

- Well no, they all lined up.

- Being beside oneself means
being really happy Muggles.

- Oh yeah.

- Anyway, we also
learned quite a bit

about dealing with life
surprises and failures

thanks to our old buddy Pete.

- Really?

Do tell.

- Well this is
what the Lord says,

you know if a man falls
down he gets up again

and if a man goes the wrong way

he turns around and comes back.

- Even stronger than before.

- Through unshakeable
faith in Jesus.

- Life might knock us
down a time or two,

but god has instilled
in each one of us

the strength and knowledge
to pick ourselves up

and keep going.

- And it's in those
challenging times

that we learn more
about ourselves

and him.

- Making us stronger.

- And better prepared.

- And wiser.

- Okay you two I get it

and so do you.

I'm so so proud of you

as always.

- [Narrator] Full of
gratitude and love for god,

little Muggles and Joy go forth

ready for anything the
new day holds in store.

- Let's swim Joy,

success is great, but
failure's not scary.

- Not with Jesus on
our side Muggles.

- [Muggles] Amen.

- [Joy] Amen.

[sound of waves crashing]

- [Narrator] It's another
great day in the ocean,

and little fish Muggles and Joy

are swimming back to their reef,

after helping other fish
clean up their own reef.

- Muggles it feels so good
to help other sea creatures!

Some parts of the ocean

are getting full of things
that don't belong there

like plastic bottles.

- And old tires.

- It feels great to
help our fellow fish

keep their reef clean.

- That's true Joy and it
doesn't take much to help others

and have a positive effect.

Just say you'll do it
and keep your word,

easy.

- I know right,

come on let's see what the
professor's up to today.

- [Narrator] Don't look
now, it's professor Shark!

The beloved teacher
of Muggles and Joy,

not to mention he's at the
tippity top of his food chain.

- Hey professor
Shark, how are things?

- Honestly?

They've been better Muggles.

- Oh no, what's wrong professor?

- It's Fizzy,

she promised Rosie she'd
play with her today

you know how they both
like to swim fast.

Anyway, she hasn't been around

and poor Rosie's very upset.

- Oh no, what do
you think happened?

Is Fizzy sick?

- No, she's fine

as far as I know Joy.

- Huh, why do you think
she would leave 'ol Rosie

in the lurch?

- I think she just
forgot, Muggles.

- Forgot?

That sure seems inconsiderate.

- Yeah, sounds like Rosie had
her little heart set on it.

- She did Joy, she really did.

Alas it didn't happen.

- Maybe she's on her way,
she ran late or something.

- The day's almost over now.

It'll be dark soon

and the fish will
settle into their reefs

and seabeds for the night.

Oh well.

- Maybe we can find
Fizzy, professor.

We'll get to the bottom of this

and see what happened.

Maybe Rosie can still get
some good playtime today

after all.

- Would you?

What kind little fish,

I know it would mean
so much to Rosie,

I do hate to see
her so let down.

- We're on it.

- Off we go!

- [Narrator] Muggles
and Joy swim double time

to find little Rosie,

who is still waiting
at the playground,

looking oh so sad for
missing her play date.

- Hi Rosie.

- Hey Rosie, how goes it?

- Not great, it's
been a bad day.

How are you guys?

- We were good until
professor Shark told us

about your play date with Fizzy.

- We didn't have a play date.

- We heard,

I bet there's a good reason
it didn't happen though,

maybe Fizzy got sick.

- Or slept in.

- With the way
Ronnie the redfish

blows bubbles every morning?

I doubt it, he's loud
enough to wake a starfish.

- Well maybe,

maybe she left the reef

to run an errand.

- Yeah maybe she left the reef.

- Or maybe she just
forgot all about me,

you thought of that?

- Oh Rosie,

I'm sure there's a super reason

Fizzy no-showed
on your play date.

I'm just sure of it.

- Does it matter?

I guess I'll just
get ready for a nap,

I'm getting tired anyway

waiting around all
day for nothing.

- Hey let's give Fizzy the
benefit of the doubt huh?

Remember that time
her fin got stuck

in those Atlantic
fiber optic cables?

- Or the time she
thought she was slim

and got herself stuck in the
porthole of that sunken ship.

- Or that time she got swept
up in the crab fisherman's net.

- Oh Fizzy, she's so clumsy.

- [Muggles] Really, knowing
Fizzy there's a million reasons

why she didn't show up Rosie.

- Yeah.

- You guys, thanks for
trying to cheer me up

but it's just
disappointing that's all!

Fizzy probably doesn't
want to play with me,

that's all.

I always though Fizzy
was my best fish friend

in the whole ocean.

I guess she doesn't
feel the same way.

- Hey Rosie before you
turn in for a seabed nap,

what do you say we find Fizzy
and see what's going on?

- No she obviously
doesn't want to see me.

I'm just a little
pink fish after all.

- No, come on Rosie!

You're our friend, come with us.

- I really don't
feel up to it guys,

thanks anyway.

- Well then do you mind
if we look for her?

- No.

- Will you wait up for us?

Maybe we'll discover a reason
that'll make you feel better.

- Yeah, we don't wanna see
you so bummed out Rosie.

- Oh

okay.

- Yay!

- We'll be back soon Rosie,

wait up for us.

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy fly out to see Fizzy

and ask what happened
to her plans with Rosie.

- Muggles, Joy, hey guys.

What are you two
doing in town today?

- We're looking for you Fizzy.

- We're here for a good friend,

we were hoping to find you
so you can help us help her.

- Oh yeah, who's your friend?

- Rosie.

- Rosie?

I can't wait for our
play date tomorrow,

we're gonna have so much fun.

- Funny you mention that Fizzy,

because we heard you
were supposed to go
out and play today.

- Today?

No we talked about
playing on Thursday.

- Fizzy, today's Thursday.

- No oh,

oh no!

I'll bet Rosie is so upset.

Is she okay?

Is she?

Oh I mixed up my days!

I'm just a clumsy
little fish you know.

My sense of
direction is terrible

and my memory is nothing
to write home about either.

Oh I feel terrible!

I promised, what can I do?

- How about you
come back with us

and apologize in
the fish to Rosie?

- Yes that's the least I can do.

- Okay then here we go.

- [Narrator] Fizzy, Muggles
and Joy go looking for Rosie.

- Fizzy where have you been?

I've been waiting
all day for you.

- Hey Rosie.

- I'm so hurt and sad!

I thought you'd never show.

- Aw Rosie, I'm so sorry.

- You are?

- Yeah I want to apologize

for skipping out on
our play date today.

I forgot what day it was.

- Really?

Oh I was looking forward to it.

I thought you didn't want
to be my friend anymore.

- What?

Rosie no,

we are best friends.

I would never,

oh I mess up everything!

I'm just a clumsy little fish.

- Hey don't say that
Fizzy, you're my friend.

- You still wanna be my friend,

after I left you
high and dry today?

- Sure I do,

I'm a pink fish we're
loyal to the end.

- Oh Rosie, I don't deserve you,

but if you say so I'll take
your friendship any day.

- Hey you wanna play tomorrow?

- Um that's Friday right?

- Yes.

- Yes I do.

- [Narrator] Muggles and
Joy return to their reef

to see professor Shark

and tell him all
that they've learned

about keeping the
promises we make.

- Professor Shark we are back.

- So I see Joy,

I wanted to see how it
went for you two out there.

Were you able to find Fizzy?

- We sure were.

- And?

- It's all fixed
no hard feelings.

- Oh?

- Fizzy forgot what day it was.

- She what?

I swear that fish would
forget her own scales

if they weren't attached.

- We definitely learned
something though,

it's important to keep
the promises we make.

- Yeah for ourselves,
our friends

and for Jesus who keeps
track of everything we do

and every choice we make.

- That's right Joy,

like the bible's book
of Joshua tells us,

so the lord gave Israel

all the land he had sworn

to their forefathers

and they took possession
of it and settled there.

The lord gave them
rest on every side.

Just as he had sworn
to their forefathers,

not one of their
enemies withstood them.

The lord handed all their
enemies over to them.

Not one of all the
lord's good promises

to the house of Israel failed.

Every one

was fulfilled.

- God leads by example,

Jesus keeps his promises
and so should we,

always.

- That's right Muggles,

a promise to a friend
is no different

than a promise to Jesus

and you wouldn't skip out
on a play date with Jesus

would you?

- No.

- [Narrator] With souls
brimming with faith

and love for Jesus,

Muggles and Joy set out to
spread his word far and wide

throughout the sea to the
four corners of the world.

- Praise Jesus, Joy.

- Always and forever Muggles.

- [Muggles] Woo hoo!

[joyful music]

[calypso music]
