A perfect fishing trip with me and my dad.
I got my fishing banjo, fishing pole, and now my fishing lunch.
It's tuna.
I don't love the concept of fishing,
but I decided to be thematically appropriate.
[in sing-song] I love that!
I wonder if we'll fish and then sing.
Maybe we'll teach the fish to sing. Hmm…
-Want to hear the song I wrote for Dad? -Mm-hmm.
[clears throat]
[twangs]
Got to tune her up.
[tuning]
Ooh.
[continues tuning]
Almost.
[spray can hissing]
[continues tuning]
[strums chord] There. Ready?
-[snores] -Berts!
[gasps] I love it!
Perfect song for a perfect day with Dad. [inhales]
-[ship horn blares] -[cruise music playing]
-[Ansel] Ahoy! -[Bertie] Whoa!
This is a little much.
[shouting] Arlo! Are you ready for our grand nautical adventure?
Am I ever! Just throw me a rope, and I'll climb aboard!
Nonsense! You're coming up in style!
[whirring]
Whoa!
-Bye, Bertie! -[chuckles]
[Ansel] And we're off!
Goodbye, Arlo's friend!
Um, we've actually met before? Mm.
Bon voyage!
Oh, boy. So much for a simple fishing trip.
[panting]
You-- You can say that again, sister!
[coughs]
Did you run all the way over here just to be snarky?
Maybe.
Want me to make you a tuna sandwich?
What does it mean for me if I say yes?
[relaxing tropical music plays]
Whoa!
We're going pretty fast!
Never fished in anything as big as the ocean,
but my trusty swamp pole can handle it.
Your what? Oh, no, no, no.
-We won't be needing that today. -But why?
I thought we were fishing today.
We are. I mean, technically we aren't.
I hired two surrogates to fish for us over there. See?
Is this fun for you, son?
It is, Father.
I love you.
-Hmm. -Huh.
Weird. It's like a different time of day over there.
Anyway, I figured let them do the simple stuff
because what I have planned is going to completely blow it out of the water.
[chuckling]
Look at me making dad jokes.
As you can see, we have a full crew today.
The ship is completely equipped.
Okay. This fishing trip is a lot more crowded than I expected.

[gasps] I'm so sorry, Bruce! I missed my cue again!
Way to go, Ben.
Yeah, way to mess up again.
He was our center visual.
[growls]
-Dad? -I am so sorry, buddy.
I promise the rest of the trip will be perfect.
[groans]
[both] Sweep, sweep, sweep.
I think this next bit will help you repress that.
As you can see,
I've even installed the latest in sonar and tracking technology
to ensure that we seek out only the most thrilling
and rare of sea life encounters.
Wow! Okay, that looks very… impressive?
Thank you.

What? I can't hear you. I think the sound thing is broken.
Dad?

Is it just me or does he look the opposite of thrilled?
[groans softly]
He looks like a Save Our Swamps poster.
Those are the saddest. Were narwhals not enough?
They're not for everyone, sir.
They are the best money can buy!
-[ethereal twinkling] -Nature's unicorns.
-Those are also not for everyone, sir. -[gasps]

Arlo, my son.

I don't know. Um…
Should I… [clears throat] …take you home?
Sure. If that's what you want.
[sputters] If that's what-- That's what I-- [groans]
You listen here, young alligator.
All I wanted was to impress you.
We saw narwhals, Arlo! The unicorns of the sea!
I would've been thrilled as a boy. Were you not thrilled?
Well, it wasn't really a fishing trip.
False. It was the most fishing trip.
No, Dad.
The narwhals and the sonar, that's all very impressive.
But what I really wanted was to spend time with you.
Really? That's…
That's enough?
Yes! You, me, some sammiches,
the sea…
That's the perfect day to me.
Well, the day isn't over yet.
Did you say you were working on a song?

Bye, drones! Thank you for your service.
Uh… [chuckles nervously] This thing is safe, right?

Fear not. I know little boats as well as I know my very own tail.
Very good.
