[Daytime approaches. Nemo is out with his friends, Pearl, Tad, and
Sheldon]
Pearl: Hey guys, what're you gonna do for Mother's day?
Nemo: What? Mom's have their own day?
Tad: Yeah, it's a day when your mom gets a rest from doing stuff!
[Nemo gets sad, because he never got to see what Mother's day was like. He sadly swims off into the city]
Sheldon: Hey Nemo, where're you going?
[Sheldon faces the other two]
Sheldon: Nice going. Now what are we gonna' do?
Tad: Uh, I gotta' go!
Pearl: Me too!
[They both rush off.]
Sheldon: Great.
[Sheldon sneezes and is pushed backwards]
[Nemo is swimming across a crowded city street. He looks through windows at all the Mother's Day Sales. He sighs, and swims across a street. Some maniac truck driver is heading down the same street]
Truck Driver: I can do this! I've finally made it across two thirds of the reef on only one cup of Coke!
[He then falls asleep at the wheel. Nemo doesn't see him, but then some fish scream. He looks and sees the truck headed at him, and freezes with fear! In a cliché matter, an orange blur swoops behind him just as the truck gets in front of him, and swooshes away Nemo]
Nemo: What just happened?
[He takes a look at his rescuer, which happens to be Coral.]
Nemo: Are you a... an angel?
Coral: No, sorry sweetie. I'm just a clownfish, like you. Why were you out there in the street?
Nemo: Well, my friends were talking about... well; I don't think I should talk about it.
Coral: No, that's alright, go ahead. What were you and your friends talking about?
Nemo: Well, we were talking about Mother's Day, and I left, because when I was a baby, my mother died.
Coral: Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie.
Nemo: That's ok, my Dad still thinks of her sometimes.
Coral: What's your Dad's name?
Nemo: Marlin, why would you want to know?
Coral: I'm, err, an old friend of Marlin's. Could you take me to him?
Nemo: I'm not so sure, my dad has told me never to take advice from people who claim that they know my dad. Only one way to find out if you really know my dad...
Coral: Alright, put me to the test.
Nemo: How many stripes does he have?
Coral: He has... wow, this is actually tough!
Nemo: You have 10 seconds...
Coral: Umm, two, four...
Nemo: Five... four... three...
Coral: That's it! Three stripes!
Nemo: Yep, that's it! I guess you can come with me.
[Coral follows Nemo to the anemone. Marlin is there]
Nemo: Dad, I'm home! I brought an old friend of yours!
Marlin: I hope you asked the stripe question!
Nemo: I did.
[Nemo gestures for Coral to come in. Marlin takes a look at her.]
Marlin: You look familiar... What's your name?
Coral: It's Coral.
[Marlin suddenly realizes, but can't believe it.]
Marlin: You're... but you're... you... no, you can't be her.
Coral: You wanted one half to be Marlin Jr. and another half to be Coral Jr. I voted for Nemo, but you insisted for one to be Nemo, and everyone else Marlin Jr.
[Marlin is shocked, knowing that only Coral could know this.]
Marlin: I think I... I'm going to... I have to faint.
[Marlin does so.]
Pearl: Hey guys, what're you gonna do for Mother's day?
