-[neighing] -[vocalizing]
[squeaks]
All right, everybody. We made it to Merfolk Town!
Home of the Whaletaur Shaman, also known as the Last Shaman.
Never understood why they called her that, but here we are.
Um, here's literally nobody here.
I think you mean there's figuratively nobody here.
I mean, guys,
are we…
-[ominous music playing] -…not here?
It only appears there's no one here because this is the land of Merdudes.
They're probably underwater right now, combing their glossy chest hair…
[groovy music playing]
…flexing their rippling gills…
[wolf whistles]
…laying their merman eggs, but in a hot way.
[male voice] I'm suffocatin' down here!
Okay, this is the last thing I need right now.
Oh… [clears throat] Well, if you'd like to learn more,
you can refer to this educational magazine I-- they found.
Wammawink, you made that magazine.
I helped you!
You said if I didn't help you, I wouldn't get Gigglecakes.
-[laughing] Okay, Glendale. -That's not even the only issue!
-There's many! -Good angle.
Some of 'em were wearing swimsuits. Some of 'em were wearing makeup.
You made me draw so many merman eggs.
[chuckling] Oh, well, I mean, uh…
There was the September issue. There was the fireman issue.
There was the holiday issue. There was the pirate issue.
There was the sports issue. There were so many issues!
You made me write all those quizzes and do horoscopes.
I don't like horoscopes! I don't believe in that stuff.
There's this pillow you made me sew.
You made me draw a man on it, a merman on it.
Okay, Glendale. Okay!
The… The point is, there are supposed to be Merdudes here.
[male voice] Merdudes? You mean, like me?
Uh…
Oh…
Wait. I… Oh.
-Hello there. -[screams]
I mean, um… [clearing throat]
[chuckles nervously] So, you… you're a… a Merdude?
Yep, in the flesh.
Are you sure?
Merdudes usually have glossy chest hair,
rippling gills…
-They lay their eggs like this. -[shudders]
No. The eggs actually come from here.
[sighs]
I'm sorry I touched your hand. You're a great artist, by the way.
Oh, thanks.
Where are the other Merdudes?
[chuckling] Well, when it comes to Merdudes,
Sunfish's Merguy's kind of the only game in town.
Except for those guys.

[winces]
Yeah, see, it could be this afternoon.
But it's much more likely that you won't see her today.
Or this week. You guys want some free tokens?
-[dramatic music plays] -[grunting]
You guys, I don't trust this guy, not one bit.
-I think he wants something. -I think…
he just wants to hang out.
-What did you think, Horse? -I think the Shaman's not here.
I think I look like two beach balls had a weird kid.
I think I'm gonna take a walk before I lose it completely.
Ooh! [giggles] Oh my.
Oh. Mmm.
Where are you going?
Not home any time soon.
Okay. I'll hold our place in line.
You were saying something I suddenly find fascinating?
I know what we can do to cheer Horse up.
-Play games! -That's gonna cheer you up. No.
Exactly.
She does seem pretty down.
Maybe we could steal her-- Win her a prize.
That might make me-- Horse feel better.
Games!
[chittering]
[wind whooshing]
You look so wrong.
Yeah? Well, so do you!
Uh, I know. I was talking to my reflection.
Oh, now, hey, come on.
Don't be so hard on yourself. You look fine.
Hey, Barnus? I can't see what this thing looks like. Describe it to me.
It's like if two beach balls had a weird kid.
-I don't know what I'm lookin' at here. -Why don't ya ask it?
Oh yeah. Hey, what are you?
I heard him.
[sighs] I don't know what I am anymore.
I think we hurt its feelings, Sean.

This is for journalism.
Trust me.
It will be very flattering.
I'm counting on it.
[giggling]
So, you just need my piece of the key?
[gags]
Usually, when someone comes to me, they want to escape this world.
Which, technically, you do, too, but to another world.
Not the one inside my belly.
But that's the real problem.
Even if I make it back to my world, to Rider,
I won't be the Horse she remembers.
Is she even gonna recognize me?
Will she still need me?
Why wouldn't she?
I don't even recognize me.
I sing, I dance, my tail tells bad jokes.
-[Tail] Hey-o! -I guess I'm two beach balls now.
Who doesn't like beach balls?
[Tail laughing]
The worst part, and I haven't even admitted this to Wammawink,
[somber music playing]
I don't know if I'd even recognize Rider.
Ever since these changes started,
her face started to fade from my memory.
I close my eyes, and my strongest memory is the pain of losing her.
[Centaurs] Wammawink!
Check it out! See? Wammawink!
-Wammawink! -Wammawink!
Wammawink! Seriously!
Oh, I get it. This guy doesn't wanna hang out at all.
He wants Wammawink.
What are you doing?
[yelling] Why are you doing?
[whimpering]
Well, he's not my dad. Hey, I am not calling you Dad.
Settle down. [chuckles nervously]
Show me what you got for Horse.
[grunts]
A Whaletaur floaty? Where'd you get this?
We won it.
[glass shatters]
Very ethically. Right, guys?
[Centaurs] Uh…
This is the perfect thing to cheer up our Horse.
I don't think you'll need to cheer her up.

Ah! Look at that sunset.
Love this time of day.
Our friend just jumped into a Whaletaur, you psychopath!
[crying]
Whoa, ladies. Didn't you know she was gonna swallow your friend?
-[all] No! -Why would we have guessed that?
But you were holding her place in line.
[Zulius] "Ride the Whaletaur Shaman."
"The journey of zero miles begins with a single step"?
"You must be this despondent to ride"?
You guys! The Whaletaur floaty is full of tiny Centaurs!
-[whimpering] -Why would somebody choose that?
I try to give people fun things to do. I got all these cool games and rides.
But everyone always chooses the whale. And they never come out again.
[chuckling] Oh, she's coming out.
[Whaletaur] Everyone, let's give our new friend Horse a big Whaletaur welcome.
Everyone?
There's nobody here.
Where am I?
[gasps]
Oh. It's just you, Gebbrey.
What are you doing here?
I think I was looking for something.
I don't remember.
-[jazz music playing] -Oh man. Isn't music the best?
[music continues]
Get me as close as you can.
[gasps]
I'll block her path!
[adventurous music playing]
Durpleton, you can't swim.
[Durpleton screaming]
[screaming]
[clears throat]
I'm not swimming. I'm standing!
On what?
On the…
uh, down there.
Barnus, describe it to me.
Oh boy. Oh, this one's gonna be hard.
[blowhole whooshing]
Zulius, Shapely Mane me some rope.
What for?
-I'll go down the blowhole-- -[all] Holes!
…get Horse, tug on the rope, and then you'll know to pull us out.
[scoffs] Fine, but don't get it wet.
[grunting]
Huh!

-Come on. We've got to get out of here. -You're right.
The shuffleboard tournament starts soon.
Horse, it's me. It's Wammawink.
[Whaletaur] Everyone, Wammawink's here.
Would've been nice if she came in like everybody else, but she's here now,
so let's give our new friend
a Whaletaur welcome.
You can give me a Whaletaur goodbye, because we're leaving!
[slurring] Yeah. We're goin' to the shuffleboard tournament.
What have you done to her?
[Whaletaur] I absorbed her pain.
All these folks chose me as the final resting place for their sorrow.
And I feel their pain more than anyone.
Conga, conga, conga, conga, conga, conga.
Conga, conga, conga. [screams]
Hey, everybody! Look up here. Yeah, look at me.
Pain stinks. I get it.
I have pain, too.
[sighs] I know it hurts to remember, but you have to.
You have to remember me. You have to remember the herd.
You have to remember Rider.
[snorts]
Rider?
You have to keep going. You are not alone in this.
