(Fade into the dentist's office, which is unopen for the night. The rotating red glow of the tank's fake volcano illuminates everything. In the tank, Finneon sleeps soundly inside a plastic Tiki hut. From out of the dark, a pebble strikes him. Finneon does not wake. Then another pebble strikes him).
Corphish: Psst. Finneon! (louder). Finneon... (Finneon is beat by a barrage of pebbles. He jumps awake).
Finneon: Ah! (The tiny shrimp figure of Corphish stands in the entranceway of the hut).
Corphish: Suivez-moi. (Corphish swims off, but Finneon just floats there, confused. Corphish pokes his head back into the Tiki hut). Follow me. (Finneon is going through the plastic underbrush to the center of the tank. The mood is eerie and somber. No one speaks. Tribal chanting is going off as they near the base of the volcano. Rising from behind the Tiki heads are Feebas, Tympole, and Qwilfish, the source of the chanting. Corphish begins the long climb up the face of the volcano with Finneon nervously in tow. Halfway up the mountainside, Luvdisc and Staryu hold fake kelp fronds, and ceremoniously whack Finneon as he passes. Corphish continues to lead him up to the peak of the volcano where Carvanha waits, silent and stern. A wimpy stream of bubbles continuously. Feebas, Tympole, and Qwilfish Say chanting).
Qwilfish/Feebas/Tympole: Hoo!
Carvanha: Tell your name.
Finneon: Finneon.
Carvanha: Brother Qwilfish, go ahead.
Qwilfish: Finneon! Newcomer of Pink and white, you have been coming forth to the summit of Mount Wannahockaloogie to join with us in the fraternal bonds of tank-hood.
Finneon: Huh?
Staryu: We want you in our club, kid.
Finneon: Really?
Qwilfish: If you can swim through...The Ring of Fire! Turn on the Ring of Fire! The Ring of Fire, you said you could do it the Ring of Fire.
Feebas: Feebas! Feebas! Let me... (They All Begin Chanting).
Staryu: Isn't there another way? He is just a boy! (They All Speed Up their Chanting).
Carvanha: From this moment on, you will now be known as Neonbait.
All: Neonbait! Ooh-ha-ha!
Carvanha: Welcome, brother Neonbait!
All: Neonbait!
Carvanha: Enough with the Neonbait.
Tympole: Neonbait!
Carvanha: OK, Neonbait's one of us now, agreed?
All: Agreed!
Carvanha: We cannot send him off to his death. Luna's coming in 5 days, so what are we going to do? Well, I will tell you what we are going to do: we are going to get him outta here. We are going to help him escape.
Finneon: Escape? Really?
Carvanha: We are all going to escape!
Tympole: Carvanha, please, not another one of your escape plans.
Luvdisc: Sorry, but they, they just, they never work.
Qwilfish: Yes. Why should this be any different?
Carvanha: Because we have him.
Finneon: Me?
Carvanha: Do you see that filter?
Finneon: Yes?
Carvanha: You are the only one who can get in and out of that thing. What we need you to do is take a pebble inside and jam the gears. You do that and this tank's going to get filthier and filthier by the minute. Pretty soon, the dentist will have to clean the tank himself. And when he does, he will take us out of the tank, put us in the individual baggies, then we roll ourselves down the counter, out of the window, off the awning, into the bushes, across the street and into the harbor! It is foolproof! Who is with me?
Qwilfish: I...
Corphish: I...
Luvdisc: I...
Feebas: I...
Tympole: I think your nuts. (Carvanha Sighs). No offense kid, but you are not the best swimmer.
Carvanha:He is fine, he can do this. So Neonbait, what do you think?
Finneon: Let us do it.
