Disclaimer: I don't own the 2004 animated film Shark Tale and all rights goes to DreamWorks Animation SKG. Shark Tale has always been one of my favorite animated films to watch ever since childhood and I still enjoy watching the movie so much, and since I love Shark Tale so much, I decided to do a whole twenty four-part miniseries version of the movie that serves as a whole retelling of the movie which is known as When A Little Fish Tells A Great White Lie that has brand new scenes, brand new characters, brand new locations, different dialogue. I hope you enjoy the retelling of the movie Shark Tale and if you do, you can review and favor/follow if you want to :)
When A Little Fish Tells A Great White Lie
Episode 10: That's What Best Friends Are For
Chapter 1: In Search Of The Two Siblings
Meanwhile, back at the RMS Titanic within the wastelands of the Atlantic Ocean that serves as the home of one of the most powerful crime families in the whole Atlantic Ocean known as the Lino crime family that consists of great white sharks and being the ones who run Southside Reef along with the other powerful crime families of the Five Families which are known as the Feinberg crime family that consists of the leopard sharks, the Veltroni crime family that consists of the hammerhead sharks, the Salvatore crime family that consists of the killer whales, and the Hicks crime family that consists of the swordfish, Don Edward Lino is having another meeting with Don Ira Feinberg, Don Barbara Veltroni, Don Phillip Salvatore, and Don Judith Hicks along with his two henchmen Luca and Yvette all about having the Sharkslayer get assassinated as revenge for killing Don Lino's oldest child Frankie by sending some more assassins.
During the next meeting of the five crime bosses of the Five Families along with Luca and Yvette within the main meeting room of the crime bosses of the RMS Titanic, the other crime bosses of the Five Families Don Veltroni, Don Feinberg, Don Salvatore, and Don Hicks has quickly agreed on having their own elite assassins of each of their own mafias which are the hammerhead shark assassins, the leopard shark assassins, the killer whale assassins, and the swordfish assassins to help out the great white shark assassins to track down the Sharkslayer and have him assassinated for sure while having the members of each of their own mafias which are the hammerhead shark mobsters, the leopard shark mobsters, the killer whale mobsters, and the swordfish mobsters help out the great white shark mobsters to continue to search for Lenny and Teresa who have still went missing on this point.
Also, Don Lino and the other crime bosses Don Veltroni, Don Feinberg, Don Salvatore, and Don Hicks has made an agreement to go to one of the most dangerous parts within one of the neighborhoods of Southside Reef that serves as where dangerous thugs would usually live at and commit crimes just like the members of the Five Families would usually do together throughout the years and they would get the thugs to help them out with their plans of having the Sharkslayer assassinated for sure and having Lenny and Teresa be searched in no time at all, and they already know that most of those thugs from the most dangerous areas within the reef would usually associate with them and would help them out with committing some crimes throughout the reef as well as make some deals with them just like anybody else in the reef who would decide to work for them out of fear so they wouldn't become their next main course.
"So, you know exactly why we've gathered at this meeting room again," said Don Lino.
"It's for having the Sharkslayer be tracked down and be assassinated." said Luca.
"And for having the Boss' two children Lenny and Teresa to be found as well." said Yvette.
"We're still doing the best we can to somehow take down the Sharkslayer." said Don Feinberg.
"None of us will rest until he will suffer a very torturous death," said Don Veltroni.
"Also, we're still attempting to bring Lenny and Teresa back to their home," said Don Salvatore.
"Those two are still missing and we still hope that they will be safe somehow," said Don Hicks.
"Look, all this has been happening ever since the Sharkslayer came along weeks ago, and I still can't believe it's still happening." said Don Lino.
"We can't believe it as much as you do, Boss, and all of this has left each of us completely devastated over Franke being taken out by the Sharkslayer." said Yvette.
"Nobody can believe it either, and besides being devastated over Frankie's death, we're also devastated that Lenny and Teresa are still missing and still haven't been found yet," said Luca.
"Oh, I miss my three children as much as you guys, including my wife Mildred and my parents Leonado and Shelly who have helped me raise them," said Don Lino.
"Also, we heard that some of the assassins that you sent from the other night has failed on having the Sharkslayer assassinated for sure," said Don Hicks.
"They almost have managed to succeed in their mission to have him killed for killing our oldest child Frankie by using that grenade like the Shark Hunters did." said Don Feinberg.
"Since they have failed on their mission to do so, we have just decided to have the assassins of each of our own mafias to help them out with the job," said Don Salvatore.
"We have already managed to convince each of our own assassins to help out your own assassins, Don Lino, and they're really looking forward to it." said Don Veltroni.
"Thank you very much, and you four are the best friends that anybody could ever ask for and we've been best friends for a very long time. It's so true." said Don Lino.
"You're welcome," said Don Feinberg and Don Salvatore.
"No problem." said Don Veltroni and Don Hicks.
"Hey, Boss, don't forget all about that we're part of your plan to take out the Sharkslayer for what he did to your son Frankie." said Luca.
"Yeah, and we're helping you find Lenny and Teresa too and it's mostly all 'cause of how we're both your consigliere and your caporegime." said Yvette.
"I really remember that you two are part of my whole plan to do what I needed to do along with the other Dons, and I appreciate your loyalty towards me very much." said Don Lino.
"Thank you." said Yvette.
"Thanks," said Luca.
"Oh, and by the way, speaking of my whole plan, we're gonna do something together and it's going to Southside Reef." said Don Lino. "We'll be going to one of the most harsh environments in the reef which serves as the home to the most dangerous thugs in the reef who would commit crimes just like the Five Families would and would also be our own associates since they're criminals just like us."
"Wait a minute. Boss, you're saying that we're gonna go to one of the most dangerous parts in Southside Reef to see the thugs?" asked Luca.
"You mean that we'll arrange a whole meeting with those criminals from the most harsh environments within the reef together?" asked Yvette.
Don Lino nodded. "That's right, Luca and Yvette, and if we're gonna get all the help that we need besides the elite assassins of the Five Families, then we're gonna get some help from the criminals who serve as associates to the Five Families ever since it has first been founded by one of my ancestors many years ago, and it's just like how anybody else in the reef would have no choice but to work for the mafia out of fear. We're gonna convince them to help us out with taking out the Sharkslayer so I could get my revenge on him for Frankie's death and have them help us out with finding Lenny and Teresa if they have managed to spot them anywhere in the reef somehow. Also, I am aware that those criminals from the reef from one of the most dangerous parts in the reef would sometimes make deals with them, and the deal we'll be making with them is to take good care of things we planned on together."
"Such a great idea, Don Lino." said Don Salvatore.
"We support the idea very much." said Don Feinberg.
"That's something we should really do." said Don Hicks.
"We should really carry it out for sure." said Don Veltroni.
"So, all must get started on the plan already while the whole assassination plot against the Sharkslayer and the search for Lenny and Teresa is still in motion." said Don Lino. "I'm sure the thugs from one of the most dangerous parts in Southside Reef shall help us and the rest of the members of the Five Families with what we're now planning on since they are our own associates just like anybody else has became our own associates which is out of fear so they wouldn't become the next main course at all. The Sharkslayer shall die and Lenny and Teresa will be brought home sooner or later."
"That's right, Boss, let's do this together." said Yvette.
"The plan is gonna work somehow, Boss." said Luca.
"Also, besides preparing to do the whole plan, something still needs to be done about Lenny and Teresa for the choices they've been making for themselves lately." said Don Lino. "Lenny should at least be a cold-blooded killer just like Frankie and it has always been one of the main traditions of the Five Families to be killers and that Teresa should at least encourage Lenny to be a killer as well as commit more crimes besides theft for once. Whether they like it or not, Lenny is gonna learn how to be a proper shark and Teresa is gonna start encouraging him to do so, and they're gonna listen to me 'cause I'm the one who's in charge around here and I am their father. I decide what's best for them, especially since they serve as my own successors of becoming the next Don of the mafia just like your own children are your own successors of becoming the next Dons of your own mafias. Now let's get to work, everybody."
Luca, Yvette, and the other crime bosses of the Five Families Don Ira Feinberg of the leopard shark mafia, Don Barbara Veltroni of the hammerhead shark mafia, Don Phillip Salvatore of the killer whale mafia, and Don Judith Hicks of the swordfish mafia all make an agreement on Don Edward Lino of the great white shark mafia's plan to get some help from some criminals that live in one of the most harsh environments of Southside Reef and serve as their own associates since they would commit crimes throughout the reef just like they are, and Don Lino hopes that he, his consigliere Luca, his caporegime Yvette, and the other crime bosses of the Five Families Don Veltroni, Don Feinberg, Don Salvatore, and Don Hicks will have each of the assassins of the Five Families be able to track down the Sharkslayer and have him assassinated as well as their own mobsters of each of their own mafias will be able to search for Lenny and Teresa in no time at all.
Later on that night at the RMS Titanic that is located within the wastelands of the RMS Titanic, Don Edward Lino and his two henchmen Luca and Yvette as well as the other crime bosses of the Five Families Don Barbara Veltroni, Don Ira Feinberg, Don Phillip Salvatore, and Don Judith Hicks have already left the RMS Titanic just as they began heading right towards the Southside Reef so they could go to one of the neighborhoods of the reef that has one of the most dangerous areas and hire some thugs in order to have them help them out with tracking down the Sharkslayer and have him assassinated and have Don Lino's two children Lenny and Teresa to be found safe and sound along with the members of the Five Families, and while they do so, Don Lino hoped that his whole plan will turn out just like he intended on just like the others do and he will stop that nothing to get revenge on the Sharkslayer for supposedly killing Frankie and have Lenny and Teresa be found safe and sound somehow.
Meanwhile, back at the Southside Reef during the nighttime, Oscar, Lenny, and Teresa are continuing to travel within the sewers just as Oscar began helping both Lenny and Teresa to find a place to stay elsewhere within the reef right after he has agreed to do so as long as the truth about him lying about being a Sharkslayer after he took credit for killing their older brother Frankie which he never did in the first place so he wouldn't have to face any humiliation and become a nobody again like he was before, and after they found out that Oscar has lied about killing Frankie, both Lenny and Teresa were very surprised and shocked by what he just did in order to make himself look good at first, but they began showing some sympathy towards him for the main reason why he did just as he began explaining everything to them while they would began explaining to him about why they left their own home in the first place which he also began to show sympathy towards them.
Also, just as Oscar is now helping out Lenny and Teresa with finding a place to stay at anywhere within the Southside Reef after he has agreed to do so while they began learning all about their main intentions why they did what they just do which is Oscar's reason for taking credit for Frankie's death which he never did and Lenny and Teresa deciding to leave their home of the RMS Titanic in the first place which they began showing great sympathy towards it, Teresa is still greatly concerned about how much Oscar's great white lie would eventually cause more harm than good since somebody telling lies would bring them nothing but trouble for sure and she still continues to warn him that he shouldn't take credit for something he didn't do at all since telling lies would prove to have serious consequences, but Oscar continues to ignore his warnings just as he still intends on being the Sharkslayer, much to Teresa's dismay while Lenny strongly agrees that she has a point that Oscar shouldn't take credit for something he didn't do without even realizing the consequences it has.
"Lenny, Teresa, c'mon." said Oscar. "I know exactly where you two are gonna be staying in this reef, and I'm the one who's helping you two after I agreed to do it as long as you remain quiet about the truth about me being the Sharkslayer."
"We both promise to not to tell anybody about the Sharkslayer, Oscar, and it looks like you're so desperate to not let the truth come out somehow," said Lenny."
"Yeah, and you better keep your word while I'll keep my word and I honestly had a good reason to take credit for killing that shark which turned out to be your brother Frankie." said Oscar.
"Well, I only went along with it 'cause of how I wouldn't let Lenny leave our home by ourselves and I would always be on his side no matter what." said Teresa.
"I can see that already, and the place you'll be staying is not far at all and it's gonna take at least a moment to get there in no time." said Oscar.
"So are we gonna be staying at, Oscar? Is it gonna be an apartment?" asked Teresa.
"Nope." said Oscar.
"Are we gonna be staying at a five-star hotel?" asked Lenny.
"No way." said Oscar.
"Then where we'll be stay together for a while anyway?" asked Lenny.
"You two can't be noticed by anybody at all, and I guess it's gonna be none other than the storage warehouse of the Whale Wash of Southside Reef." answered Oscar.
"The storage warehouse of the Whale Wash? Seriously?" asked Lenny.
"That's the place we'll be staying at for a while?" asked Teresa.
Oscar nodded. "It's the place you'll be staying for a while, and it hasn't been visited by anybody for many years lately 'cause the many employees who have been working at the Whale Wash has usually left out the cleaning supplies that they use to clean up each of the sperm whale customers right out in the area when work time is over and began using them again when it's time to get to work again. So, you two are gonna stay at the Whale Wash storage warehouse for a while since it hasn't been visited by any of the employees for so long, and I already know that sharks like you two are able to fit in anywhere within the Southside Reef, but you must stay at the storage warehouse so nobody won't notice you at all."
"Well, I guess that's the only place we could stay in the whole reef since nobody can know that we're right here in this area since they're usually afraid of sharks."
"Thanks for helping us out when we needed it, and we appreciate it very much, even after we have persuaded you so nobody can know the truth about the Sharkslayer." said Teresa.
"No problem, and just like I said from before, I had such a good reason to take credit for killing Frankie in the first place anyway." said Oscar.
"Speaking about all of this, what was exactly your good reason to make up the entire story about killing a shark, huh?" asked Lenny.
"You two really wanna know why I did it? Do you?" asked Oscar in surprise.
"Yeah, we do. We really wanna know why it gave you the idea to lie about killing Frankie. Why did you do it, Oscar?" asked Lenny.
"Well, the reason why I did it is all 'cause of what I've been through lately, homies." explained Oscar. "I had a father Earl who was the number #1 tongue scrubber ever which has earned him many employees of the month awards while I had a mother Regina who was a housewife at the apartment I used to live in when I was young, and throughout my childhood, I would usually watch my Dad do his job sometimes and I really looked up to him so much. Due to always admiring his own job as a tongue scrubber, I've always had the dream of being a tongue scrubber at the Whale Wash and decided to show my own dream of show-and-tell at Pisces Elementary School…but sadly…my own classmates made fun of me for it and they consider the Whale Wash to be such a lame job, especially of how the tongue scrubbing job hasn't been that much popular throughout the years."
"Really? You did all of that 'cause you got bullied by your own classmates for looking up to your dad's job at the Whale Wash?" asked Lenny in surprise.
"Yes, and that's not all, you two." explained Oscar. "Besides being cruelly made fun of by my classmates at Pisces Elementary School due to the least popularity the Whale Wash has been receiving lately and how I thought that having a job there is the most amazing job in the whole Atlantic Ocean to have from before, nobody actually showed me that much respect at all even though they did showed some kindness towards me and praised me for all of the hard work I did as a tongue scrubber lately which would've earned me some kind of promotion, and it's mostly all 'cause of the job as a tongue scrubber is the least popular job at the Whale Wash lately and I was even at the bottom of the food chain 'cause of it. So, that's why I took credit for killing a shark, and I've always wanna be a somebody and nobody loves a nobody."
"Well, that makes sense for what you did, and we're really sorry for what you have been through lately." said Teresa.
"It's alright, y'all." said Oscar. "And even though I was stuck being a tongue scrubber and didn't receive that much respect from the others at all, I honestly enjoyed being a tongue scrubber regardless of what anybody else says about it and I was honored about getting a promotion for all of the hard work I did."
"You know what, Oscar, even though we are very shocked to learn that you lied about killing Frankie, we really felt bad for you so much." said Teresa.
"Wait a minute? You show sympathy towards me even though I made that kind of decision before?" asked Oscar.
"Yes, and it's mostly 'cause of how people who have traumatic experiences from childhood would eventually lead them to do the kind of thing that you did," said Lenny.
"You're right, and I am one of those people and I already know that they would receive some sympathy for what they have been through during their own lives." said Oscar. "How about you two? Why did you leave your own home in the first place and end up turning to me to have me help you out with finding a place to stay in this reef after we made an agreement that the truth about me lying about being the Sharkslayer wouldn't come out somehow? Why?"
"Well, it's mostly 'cause of how our relationship with our own father hasn't been the best lately." explained Lenny. "He has always expected me to be a killer just like Frankie and the rest of the sharks of our family, and he really needs to understand that I'm just myself no matter what just like anybody else would understand that besides my sister Teresa and our mother. I can never be the shark he has always expected me to be, and how he's forcing me to be something that I couldn't is just downright unfair."
"That's right, and besides that, our own father is forcing me to start encouraging Lenny to be a killer just like our brother Frankie," said Teresa. "I've always been on Lenny's side no matter what I've always supported his own decision to be so different from the other sharks, and I even attempted to get our father to understand that Lenny is perfect just the way he is and how much I love him just the way he is as much as anybody else would, including our mother, but he's way too stubborn to listen and still insists that Lenny should be a vicious shark like Frankie. He just can't do that at all."
"Lenny, Teresa, is what you just explained to me very true?" asked Oscar. Lenny and Teresa both nodded yes. "Well, I quickly believe what you just told me, and you're absolutely right, what your own father put you through lately is totally unfair and he can't do that. I think that he should understand that you are your own person, Lenny, and it was such a good idea to support Lenny's decision to be different, Teresa. Looks like we both have things in common after all and it's all 'cause what we've been through lately. I've went through being a nobody who doesn't receive that much respect and you went through being judged by your own father for how you are, Lenny."
"You're right, we've both gone through a lot lately and it's another thing we have in common." said Teresa. "Also, since you took credit for killing Frankie which you never did so you could finally be respected by others, I still don't think it's such a good idea to do so 'cause it still doesn't feel right at all."
"It will prove to be very right as long as I keep coming up with some ideas to take some sharks for real so I won't be humiliated at all if the truth comes out." said Oscar. "Look, I'm finally a somebody now just like I've always dreamed about, and since I now have to fight off sharks for real and I'll do so as long as I keep being creative."
"Oscar, you gotta listen to me. Please just listen, alright? Maybe there could be a chance that you'll eventually run out of ideas to fight off the sharks sooner or later." said Teresa. "It honestly isn't right for anybody to tell lies, including if they wished to be noticed by others after they have a traumatic experience during childhood, and telling lies would eventually cause nothing but trouble when it will somehow get bigger."
"It's still a little lie and there's nothing to worry about, and besides, I didn't attempt to use my ideas against you 'cause you didn't attempt to attack me from before." said Oscar. "Even after we first met and got the chance to know each other better. Also, you and Lenny have agreed to keep it a secret, remember?"
"Yeah, but I only did it to help out with Lenny since he doesn't wish to return home and I am only accompanying him since I wouldn't leave all by himself." said Teresa. "Look, you need to understand that nothing good would come from telling lies and how it could end up hurting anybody for sure, and there's something else you need to know about how lying about killing Frankie wasn't such a good idea at all and Lenny and I are actually…"
Suddenly, the whole conversation between Oscar, Lenny, and Teresa got interrupted when they all heard some terrified screaming right above the sewers which made them filled with confusion, and Oscar quickly deduces that it has something to do with a latest shark attack in Southside Reef which he decides to quickly investigate on while he has Lenny and Teresa to hide right inside of the sewers which they quickly agree to do so. Oscar then quickly leaves the sewers to see what's exactly going on which could be another shark attack in the reef while Teresa continues to feel greatly concerned about how much trouble Oscar's great white lie would cause since that it actually wasn't right for him to falsely claim that he has killed Frankie, especially that she, Lenny, and Frankie are the three children of Don Edward Lino who is one of the most feared crime bosses of the whole Atlantic Ocean.
After leaving the sewers where he had Lenny and Teresa to hide them from everybody else who lives in the reef after he has helped them to find a place to stay in the reef just as Teresa felt great concern about how much harm Oscar's great white lie will eventually cause and has went along Lenny's plan to agree to keep Oscar's lie a secret since he wishes not to return to their home, Oscar began travelling throughout one of the neighborhoods in the reef in order to investigate on what's exactly going on for a moment, and he eventually arrives at the scene where many citizens who live in the neighborhood are suffering from the latest attack being carried about the members of the great white shark mafia, and not only it has been causes by the great white shark mafia, it was also caused by the rest of the Five Families which are the leopard shark mafia, the hammerhead shark mafia, the killer whale mafia, and the swordfish mafia, much to his own surprise and shock.
Some citizens of Southside Reef have been severely injured by the members of the Five Families already already just as they are being sent to the hospital to be tended to their own wounds by Nurse Breedlove and the beluga ambulances, a few apartment homes being badly damaged by oil spill arson which are being taken good care of by Oil Chief Humphrey and the narwhal oilfighters, and a graffiti artwork that serves as vandalism on a nearby wall of a local laundromat and the graffiti says "Sharkslayer Beware!" which serves as a warning from the Five Families just as the leader of the Southside Reef Police Department who is Sheriff Waves and his two helpers Deputy Surfer and Detective Tide began investigating. Oscar suddenly swims to the scene to check out what's going on and the local authorities of the reef began explaining everything to Oscar about what happened in the area as well as the five crime bosses of the Five Families has just arrived elsewhere within the neighborhood which caused him to become filled with shock even more than ever while he attempted to be brave.
"Yo, guys! What just happened here?" asked Oscar.
"Oh, it was awful, Sharkslayer! Just awful!" said Detective Tide.
"The area of this neighborhood was under attack!" said Deputy Surfer.
"Attacked? By who?" asked Oscar.
"It was attacked by the members of the great white sharks!" said Sheriff Waves.
"Not only were the great whites, it was also the others from the Five Families!" said Oil Chief Humphrey.
"It was also hammerhead sharks, leopard sharks, killer whales, and swordfish!" said Nurse Breedlove.
"What did those mobsters do to the reef this time?" asked Oscar.
"They've 'caused so many citizens of this neighborhood to be brutally beaten up by the mobsters which is what resulted in them being hospitalized." said Nurse Breedlove.
"They have set some of the apartment buildings to be badly damaged by spilling some oil and we're doing the best we can to put them out with these hydrants." said Oil Chief Humphrey.
"And we've just discovered that the mobsters have made graffiti vandalism right on this wall which says "Sharkslayer Beware"." said Sheriff Waves.
"Whoa. What the mobsters did to this area was terrible. It really is." said Oscar.
"You're right, and they already left the area after they wrecked it up and left many of its citizens injured in the process," said Deputy Surfer.
"While the mobsters were so busy laying waste here, what were you doing?" asked Detective Tide.
"Huh?" asked Oscar.
"What the heck were you doing while the mobsters attacked this neighborhood." asked Nurse Breedlove.
"Oh, about that, I was so busy patrolling around the reef to make sure if any shark had arrived to make their next strike, that's all." said Oscar.
"Well, stop being on the patrol right now and deal with the latest shark attack in Southside Reef which has already started," said Sheriff Waves.
"Also, besides the mobsters making their attack, we just spotted the five crime bosses of the Five Families arrive elsewhere in this neighborhood," said Oil Chief Humphrey.
"Wait a minute? What did you just say?" asked Oscar.
"We said that the crime bosses of the Five Families are right here in this neighborhood right now while the mobsters have already wrecked this area," said Detective Tide.
"The notorious crime boss Don Edward Lino, who is the leader of the great white shark mafia, came to the neighborhood just now," said Deputy Surfer.
"Also, the four other crime bosses Don Ira Feinberg, Don Barbara Veltroni, Don Phillip Salvatore, and Don Judith Hicks are here with him as well," said Sheriff Waves.
"They must be up to no good since they and the rest of the Five Families have always been terrorizing this reef for so many years." said Oil Chief Humphrey.
"And we hope that the Sharkslayer could do something about them since he's the one who's able to slay any shark at any time." said Nurse Breedlove.
"So, what are you waiting for, Sharkslayer? Are you gonna go out and protect the reef like you're supposed to?" asked Sheriff Waves.
"Wait? Do you expect me to take good care of those mobsters that are elsewhere in this neighborhood? Really?" asked Oscar.
"Yes. You're the Sharkslayer, remember? It's your job to keep this reef safe from the threat of the Five Families who have always served as a threat to this reef." said Nurse Breedlove.
"You're right, I am the Sharkslayer, and I should get started on taking good care of the sharks and somehow send them off from this reef like I did from before." said Oscar.
"Now get to work on dealing with the five crime bosses of the Five Families so they won't be able to carry out their plans of bringing harm to innocent people." said Deputy Surfer.
"And when you show those five crime bosses who's boss, you'll teach them a harsh lesson to not bother this reef just like they always had." said Oil Chief Humprey.
"We got this whole thing, Sharkslayer, and you should be swimming off and deal with those crime bosses elsewhere in this neighborhood already," said Detective Tide.
"Okay. I'll do it right now, and I promise that I'll take those five crime bosses down for sure." said Oscar. "Or unless they have already left the area after what they just did if I don't be there right away."
"That will be alright if you don't make it in time just like this incident," said Sheriff Waves. "We're all counting on you to stop the crime bosses since you're the reef's hero known as the Sharkslayer, and bye."
"See ya." said Oscar.
Oscar then leaves the area where it has been under attacked by the members of the Five Families which consists of the great white sharks, the hammerhead sharks, the leopard sharks, the killer whales, and the swordfish while the leader of the Southside Reef Police Department Sheriff Waves and his two helpers Deputy Surfer and Detective Tide continiues to make the investigation of the whole thing which is how the mobsters of the Five Families has already a warning graffiti sign on the wall of a nearby laundromat which is called "Sharkslayer Beware", Nurse Breedlove and the other beluga ambulances continue to have each of the citizens to be sent to the hospital after each of them were brutally pummeled by the mobsters, and Oil Chief Humphrey and the other narwhal oil fighters continue to put out the oil spills that has damaged some of the apartment buildings by the mobsters by using hoses and the hydrants to do so, and he prepares to deal with the five crime bosses of the Five Families that has already arrived in the neighborhood since he's the Sharkslayer.
Also, while Oscar is preparing to take on the five crime bosses of the Five Families which are Don Edward Lino of the great white shark mafia, Don Barbara Veltroni of the hammerhead shark mafia, Don Ira Feinberg of the leopard shark mafia, Don Phillip Salvatore of the killer whale mafia, and Don Judith Hicks of the swordfish mafia after they have arrived at the neighborhood where it got attacked by some of the mobsters from earlier since he's the reef's hero who slays sharks known as the Sharkslayer and the eventual sucessor of the Shark Hunters who used to be the defenders of the reef many years ago, he is still very terrified that he will have to face off with the five crime bosses of the Five Families, especially since that the Five Families is being led by one of the most feared crime bosses of the Atlantic Ocean and how his crime family is one of the most powerful crime families ever, but he still attempts to be brave just as he attempts to come up with another idea to take them down somehow.
Meanwhile, back in the sewers where Lenny and Teresa are now hiding at under Oscar's orders so they wouldn't be noticed by anybody, Teresa continues to feel worried by how much harm Oscar's own lie woud eventually cause since nothing good would come from lying even if somebody has falsely claimed that they did in order to be noticed by others after dealing with traumatic experiences during childhood which somebody could feel great sympathy towards it, and she wishes that she could somehow get Oscar to listen to her that he shouldn't go around telling lies that he's a Sharkslayer while Lenny strongly agrees with her and still agrees to keep Oscar's secret since he still does not wish to return back to their home all because of their own estranged relationship with their father Don Edward Lino.
"Lenny, Oscar has no idea what he's doing." said Teresa.
"Huh? Teresa, what do you mean by that?" asked Lenny.
"I mean, he took credit for killing our brother Frankie which he never did in order to be respected by others, but it's still a poor decision to do so." said Teresa.
"You're right, and maybe he shouldn't have done that kind of thing in the first place." said Lenny.
"But he did anyway, and look where it's eventually gonna get him if his own lie continues." said Teresa.
"None of us has no idea what harm his lie could do." said Lenny.
"Who knows what could happen, and I bet that it would hurt very much." said Teresa.
"Well, look on the bright side, the lie isn't causing any harm right now." said Lenny.
"Yes, but not for long when the lie will get bigger and bigger by the minute. He just can't do that and there's no way he can still keep it up." said Teresa.
"Look, we promise that we'll keep it a secret, and as long as we keep it a promise, I wouldn't have to go back home while you're accompanying me due to you-know-what." said Lenny.
"True, but there still could be a chance that Oscar telling lies would have some serious consequences sooner or later." said Teresa.
"I guess we're just gonna have wait and see how it will turn out once we'll see what kind of consequences there will be for his lie." said Lenny.
"Mmm-hmm, and I hope that everything is gonna be alright somehow." said Teresa.
"Me too, Sis. Me too." said Lenny.
Teresa continued to feel very worried about how much Oscar's own great white lie would end up bringing more harm than good for himself and would end up hurting very much, and she already knows that taking credit for Frankie's death in the first place wasn't such a good idea since it turns out that he's the oldest child of Don Edward Lino who is one of the most feared crime bosses of the Atlantic Ocean and the one being in charge of the Five Families of the Atlantic Ocean and how much it would lead to serious consequences. Also, Teresa just hopes that Oscar would eventually listen to her that it's not right for anybody to tell lies in order to be respected by others and that nothing good would come from it while she is still accompanying Lenny on leaving their own home due to their estranged relationship with their father Don Lino and he even strongly agrees on her of what kind of consequences of his own lie would eventually bring once it will get bigger very soon.
