  Speaker 1: Hello, friends from across the nation and around the world.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: By Martin and you are listening to Dad's Bedtime Stories. Tonight,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: we're headed back into the Spaceship universe for an idea
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: brought to you by one of my Patreon sponsors, Jackson.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Jackson's idea was to have an ocean planet where spaceship
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: turns into a submarine and the kid gets to put
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: on scuba gear and they find a portal underwater that
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: apparently leads to a shark world, but they're stopped by
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: a sea horse named Jackson, who brings them to the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: seahorse area or world instead. I thought an underwater world
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: would be a great idea, so that's exactly what we're
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: gonna do tonight. Before we get started, I just want
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to give a few shout outs. First of all, thank
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: you to Jackson Rowan, who were the first ones to
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: sign up for My Dad's Bedtime Stories social share contest,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: where they shared the podcast and filled out my Google form.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: So they are currently the only two, at least at
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: the recording of this episode who are in a draw
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: for a guaranteed story idea. If you want to join
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the contest, the details are in the description or show
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: notes or whatever you call them. Wherever you're listening, just
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: read up on them, join in and enter for a
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: guaranteed story idea. Next, I want to give a big
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: shout out to some Patreon sponsors that have joined in
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: the past week. Thank you first of all to Connor,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Reiley and Christina who listened to the podcast every night
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: and recently joined Patreon. It means a lot that you
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: joined Patreon, so thank you guys. Next up, I'd really
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: like to thank Cooper, Amelia and Courtney from Seattle for
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: joining Patreon and sponsoring the podcast very very much appreciated.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: As well. Thank you to Eddie Clover and Liz from Maine, USA.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: They also joined recently and I really really appreciate it.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: And the last I'd like to give a shout out
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: to Henry and Charlie who recently joined Patreon under the
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: name Henry Charlie. So I don't really know anything else
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: about them, but I really appreciate you supporting the podcast. Now,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: if parents out there want to join Patreon for as
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: little as one dollar a month, it does get you
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: had free episodes as well as any bonus content I have.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: And that's only twelve dollars for an entire year if
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you listen to the podcast a lot. Now, I know
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: that doesn't work for everyone, and that is why we've
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: finally gotten some podcast ads back on the podcast. I
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: know they're annoying in a little intrusive at times, but
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: they do fund the podcast as well, and as usual,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I make a guarantee to only put them at the
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: beginning and sort of right near the end of the intro.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I'm never gonna put them during stories, and I'm never
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: gonna put a roll at the end. So if you
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: hear any weird advertisements at the end, let me know
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: it might be where you're listening, because they're not supposed
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: to be there. And now a possible break for that
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: time to close your eyes, get as comfy as you
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: can in that bed, and imagine yourself doing what the
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: kid in the story does. You wake up inside your spaceship,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: you stretch your arms and legs and head out to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: the main part of the ship. Good morning, spaceship says,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: I have discovered a very interesting planet. It seems to
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: be an underwater world. In addition, there is a strange
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: anomaly coming from below the surface of the ocean and
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: checking it out could lead to some adventure. Oh interesting, Uh, okay,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: let's head for it, you say, understood, course said. Spaceship
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: turns a little bit to the left and you continue
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: to blast through hyper space for a little while. Eventually
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the ship stops and you find yourself staring at a gigantic,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: almost entirely blue planet with the fluffy white clouds flowing overhead.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: You move to the control center of the ship, sit
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: down in the seat and grab a hold of the joystick.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: You press forward on the throttle and steer the ship
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: straight towards the planet. There's a little bit of turbulence
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: as you pass through the atmosphere and dip below the clouds.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: All you can see is ocean, ocean, ocean, and more ocean.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Is there any land here at all? You ask, yes,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: spaceship answers below the water is plenty of land. Prepare
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: for submarine mode. The ship begins to glow around you
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and its shape changes slightly. A gigantic circular window appears
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: at the front, little circular windows at the side, and
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: the ship hits the water, splashes down and starts to
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: sink at once. Everything around you turns blue and wavy.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Sunlight pours through the water overhead, and long golden beams
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: and small silver alien fish dark past the window like
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: living arrows. Wow, you say, the world outside is beautiful
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: as you sink down, Tall green sea plants sway back
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: and forth as if the whole world is breathing. Pink
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: coral branches spread like underwater trees, Huge smooth rocks lie
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: on the seafloor, and bright little fish weave in and
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: out of them. In the distance, something that looks like
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: a jellyfish drifts past like a glowing floating lantern. You
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: decide that you'd like to explore this first hand. Uh,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: any idea if I can go for a swim myself,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: You say yes. Your spacesuit has an underwater mode as well.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: You look down at your watch and start to flip
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: through the different until you come to one that's a
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: picture of a sort of high tech spacesuit with flippers.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: You press the accept button and the suit folds out
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: around your body, little nanites crawling out of the watch
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: and forming themselves into armor. Before long, you're entirely protected.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: The helmet's a little larger than you're used to, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: it seems to have a bright light on the front
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: of it, and the feet are giant flippers. You head
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: to the back of the ship and notice that it's
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: been changed too. Instead of a simple opening to the outside,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: there's now a door that leads to some other little room.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: What's this for, you ask? That is for transitioning to
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: water without getting me entirely wet. Please enter inside. The
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: chamber will be filled with water, pressurized, and then the
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: hatch will open, spaceship explains. So you step through the door,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: sit down on a little chair. The door closes, an
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: alarm goes off, and water starts to rise. You feel
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: perfectly safe in your spacesuit or well scuba gear in
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: this case. As water fills up the entire room. Once
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: it's completely full, there's a hissing noise in the back
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: hatch opens. You swim outside. You start to kick gently
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: and float over a garden of coral shapes shaped like
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: spirals and fans and sort of tower like things. Tiny
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: blue fish zip around your arms. A crab the size
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: of a dinner plate raises one claw at you as
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: if it's sort of shaking its fist As you swim past,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Hey crab, you say, as you swim overhead anomaly detected.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Spaceship says, I believe we have found the anomalous reading nearby.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: Follow me.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Spaceship darts forward through the water, and you kick your
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: fins gently and follow behind. If you'd like to go
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: at a higher speed, just think about moving forward and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: you will be pushed forward. You straighten both of your
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: legs and try just that, almost like magic, Your spacesuit
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: or well, scuba suit propels you forward through the water.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: If you think about going faster, it goes faster, and
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: if you think about going slower, it goes slower. You
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: follow behind the ship until you see it. At first
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: it looks like a giant ring of light, but then
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: it swirls. The water inside it twists like a spinning
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: window made of blue green glass. Uh, spaceship, is that
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: what I think it is? You ask? I believe so.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: It is either a portal or one of the fanciest
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: whirlpools I have ever seen. You turn slowly in the
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: water and stare at it. It hangs between two coral cliffs,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: glowing brighter and brighter. Strange shapes move faintly inside it.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: The edges shimmer like moonlight on water. A portal, you whisper,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: I believe so, I recommend caution or excitement. It depends
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: on what's inside. You start swimming towards it. Then something
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: tiny zips directly in front of your mask. Stop stop, stop,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: it says, you, nearly tumble backward. Hovering in front of
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: you is a little orange seahorse with bright eyes and
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: a curled tail. It's wearing what appears to be a
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: tiny shell helmet. You can't go in there, he cries, Uh,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: you can talk. The seahorse blinks, of course I can talk,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: can't you?
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: But well, just usually on my planet, seahorses don't talk.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Usually kids don't wear shiny bubble helmets either. But here
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: we are, he says. Spaceship's voice crackles in your helmet.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: I believe I like him. The seahorse spins around dramatically
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: and points one tiny fin at the poor that he says,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: goes to the big bad shark world. You look at
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: the glowing ring again, the wet the big bad shark world,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: he repeats, very big, very bad, and from my experience
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: full of sharks, that does sound inconvenient, Spaceship adds. The
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: seahorse puffs himself up. My name is Jackson, he says,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: and if you swim through that portal, you'll probably get gobbled, chased,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: or chomped, or at the very least glared at in
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: a very unsettling manner. You glance at spaceship floating nearby
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: in its submarine form. So you've been in the world,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: you asked Jackson. Once, and I ran into one of
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: the biggest sharks I've ever seen. I got out of
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: there as quickly as I could, and luckily I got
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: out with my life. Luck If you came here to explore,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: then I can show you something much better than a
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: terrifying shark portal. I can show you my world. You smile.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Your world, the sea horse reefs, says Jackson, proudly, best
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: underwater world, and this entire planet. Probably I haven't actually
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: been everywhere. We accept the probably spaceship ads here follow me,
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Jackson says, flicking his tail, he darts away like a
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: tiny orange arrow, and you swim after him. The deeper
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: you go, the more amazing everything becomes. The coral opens
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: into wide underwater streets lined with swaying sea fans and
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: shell lamps. Curved tunnels of woven seagrass connect little coral homes.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Bubble streams rise up from the seafloor like sparkling fountains,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: And everywhere there are sea horses, little sea horses, big
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: sea horses, red ones, gold ones, purple ones, striped ones.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Some carry baskets of seaberries. Some teach baby sea horses
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: how to curl their tails around drifting plants. Some race
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: each other through rings of bubbles. A pair of seahorses
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: zoom past you, shouting out of the way, urgent bubble delivery.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Welcome to my world, Jackson says. He leads you to
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: a coral archway of swirling carvings of seahorses and waves.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: This is the sad her Reef, he says. That's the school,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: that's the shell market, and that's my house. The house
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: is tucked inside a giant spiral shell, with little polished
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: stones outside, and a sign made of driftwood that says
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Jackson in sort of wobbly letters. You have your own house,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: you ask, well, I share it with my family, says Jackson.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I'm not rich, you know. A large seahorse glides over.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: She's blue green, with a necklace made of tiny pearls. Jackson,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: She says, who is this. This is my new friend,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: says Jackson, and also his talkative submarine. The seahorse lady
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: looks at you kindly welcome. I'm Jackson's mother. Nice to
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: meet you, you say, and I am Spaceship, says Spaceship.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Jackson's mother nods. That's good. Jackson tugs on your sleeve.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Come on, I'll show you the best part. Jackson leads
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: you to the heart of the reef, where a dozen
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: sea horses are gathered in an open coral circle. What's
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: happening here, you ask? A. Yeah, well, a sort of production,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Jackson answers, and slowly and softly, the sea horses begin
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: to sing, and as they sing, other fish begin to
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: join them, swimming around in circles, off in different patterns.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: The whole thing looks kind of like a fireworks display
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: made entirely of fish, or a musical theater production. It's beautiful,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: it's color, it sounds amazing. That is beautiful, you tell Jackson.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I know, this whole place is absolutely amazing. Other than
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: the portal, Uh yeah, has that always been there? You ask?
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately no, We seahorses used to live in peace until
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that portal appeared. One day some of us ventured inside
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: but never came back. And as you know, when I
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: went to check things out, all I saw was a
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: gigantic shark. Life here used to be way better before
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: that portal. Now everybody's too scared to do anything fun
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: or go too far from the village. Well, why don't
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: we actually go check out the portal and see if
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: we can like close it or something. Spaceship's pretty good
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: at things like that, you suggest, Really you think you
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: could close it?
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Maybe, what do you.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Think, Spaceship, I am very skilled at detecting and dealing
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: with anomalies. I will search my data banks, but first
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: we must explore the anomaly further. You mean you want
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: to go into shark world. I guess so it's okay.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Though Spaceship can protect us, you can even like come
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: inside the ship if you want. There's no way sharks
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: will hurt us inside that thing. Your ship can withstand
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: the attacks of a shark. Jackson asks, I think so.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: I mean it's dealt with like laser beams and giant
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: robots before. I'm pretty sure you're gonna be safe from
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: a shark inside it. Well, then I will join you.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Lead the way you swim over to Spaceship. The back
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: hatch opens and you and Jackson move inside. You find
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: a little bull sitting on the bench. The bull is
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: for the seahorse, Spaceship explains, he will want to be
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: inside it before the water leaves. Jackson listens and swims
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: inside the bowl. The back hatch closes and all of
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: the water starts to drain out of the ship. You
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: press the button on your watch and your space suit
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: armor folds back inside it. Then you move over to
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: the little fish bowl, where Jackson still sitting. You pick
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: it up and move into the ship itself. Wow, this
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: is pretty cool inside, like your own little house mobile house.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I guess, so, you say, as you walk
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: over to the command center and place Jackson on the dashboard.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: You sit down in the seat, grab a hold of
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: the controls, and turn Spaceship around. All right, everyone, let's
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: head back to that portal and see what's really inside.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: You press forward on the throttle and Spaceship starts to
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: zip forward back up through the coral and to where
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: you originally found the anomaly. The glowing swirling portal sits
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: in front of you. All right, everyone, are you ready
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: to go through? Three two one. But before you can
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: press on the throttle, the portal shimmers and something passes
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: through it, something large, almost as large as spaceship itself,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: A gigantic shark. Oh no, spaceship initiate defenses, understood, spaceship says,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: And immediately a whole bunch of laser cannons fold out
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: from the ship and point directly at the gigantic shark.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: WHOA, what's that about? The shark says.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: You press down on the speaker button and begin to
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: speak to the creature. You can talk, you say, of
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: course I can talk. You can talk. Uh, yeah, we
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: can talk too. We're inside the submarine. Oh I thought
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: you were the submarine, though I've never seen a submarine before.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Have you guys seen my nephew, the shark asks your nephew. Yes, Billy,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: we always tell him not to go through the portal,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: But does he listen?
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Now my sister's making it everyone's problem.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: So I said.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I'd brave things and come through here to find them.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Even though we're told that this place is a nightmare. Wait,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: you're afraid of this place? Of course I am. As
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: far as we understand. It's full of tiny, little horse
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: like creatures that zip from place to place.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: They're creepy. You look over at.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Jackson and then back at the giant viewing screen and
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: press down on the button again. You're afraid of the seahorses?
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Is that what they call themselves? Those things are weird.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: I was once sitting around on my side of the portal,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: just minding my own business, when a little orange one
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: zipped straight into me. He just about scared the daylight
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: out of me. Then he zipped back through just as quickly. Ugh,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: the feeling it gave me weird. Anyways, we sharks decided
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: to stay on our own side of the portal, but
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: little Billy didn't listen.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: Have you guys seen.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: A little shark around here about this tall No, but
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: we could help you find him. Oh that would be great.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Just be careful. There's a lot of little seahorses around here.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: They're so weird. So you begin to search around the area.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Jackson leads you to all of the good possible hiding spots. Man,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: I think there's a cave over here. He could be
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: in that, Jackson says. You steer the ship over towards
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: a large cave and slowly make your way inside. But
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: no shark. Next, Jackson leads you over to a coral maze.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: He could have gotten trapped in the maze. He guides
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: you and the shark left and right, up and down
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: through the very intricate maze. But again you don't find
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: the shark anywhere. Ah, maybe some people at the village
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: will know where he is, Jackson says, you press the
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: button on the speaker and announce it to the shark.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: We're wondering if we should check the seahorse village. Maybe
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: somebody else there has seen him. You say, you want
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: me to go to an entire village of those creepy
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: little horse creatures. The shark asks, ugh, I don't know
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: if I could do that. You could come in the
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: ship if you want to. You say, oh, yeah, I
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: would probably be better. You open up the back hatch.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: The shark swims inside, and spaceship closes the hatch, keeping
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: him behind the little windowed wall.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Oh this place is amazing. Wait a second, is that
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: a sea horse I see up there? The shark says, uh, yeah,
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: but don't worry, he's not gonna hurt you.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be so sh sure. You steer the ship
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: back down towards the seahorse village, through the coral, past
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Jackson's house, and to the town center, where the same
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: sort of production is still going on, singing seahorses, swimming
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: fish and a little kid sized shark swimming around in
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: the middle. What that, Hey, press the button for me,
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Jackson says. You press down on the speaker button, and
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Jackson begins to talk. Ah, guys, isn't that a shark?
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: You ask the other sea horses look at the shark
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: and then back at the submarine.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Uh, yeah it is. But he's so cool and so nice.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: He even told us that the whole other side of
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: the portal is absolutely beautiful and that sharks this are
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: afraid of sea horses do.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I sort of heard that already. Anyways, shark,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: whatever your name is, your uncle's with us. He's been
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: looking for you, Uncle Ron. The shark says, Oh, her
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: uncle Ron.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Hih, sorry I got lost.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Tell him his mother's been worried. Ah, your mother's been worried,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Jackson says over the speaker. Follow us back to the portal.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, I guess we better go.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: You turn the ship around once again and lead the
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: little shark up through the coral back over to the portal,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: and you finally enter inside, followed by the little shark.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Then you open up the back hatch and let the
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: big shark out.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Thank you, The big.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Shark says, you have shown true kindness. And it turns
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: out those sea horses might not be as scary as
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: we thought. It turns out sharks might not be so
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: bad either. In fact, this whole shark area is absolutely beautiful,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Jackson admits, and he's right. The Shark city, your shark
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: world is absolutely beautiful, like Jackson's world. It's filled with coral,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: reefs and seaweed and beautiful colored fish of all different
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: shapes and sizes. Maybe seahorses and sharks can't get along
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: after all, maybe, the shark, admits you suddenly yawn.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Oh well, this has been fun and all, but uh,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: I think I should probably get you back home.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Jackson. This has been a really weird journey. Honestly, eh,
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: I understand, but at least you've taught us something about
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: the sharks, and the sharks something about us. There's nothing
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: to be afraid of anymore, right, I mean, except like
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: being eaten by a shark. You say, what do you mean, Jackson, responds, well,
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: as much as they're afraid of see yours, as they
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: could definitely eat you. You are really small compared to them.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: I'd never even thought of that, Jackson says, as you
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: walk his fish bowl back out to the back of
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: the ship. This gives me a lot to think about,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: Jackson says. As you place him down on the bench
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: and make your way back into the main part of
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: the ship. You close the door and the back hatch
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: fills with water once again. Jackson swims out of the
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: bowl and the hatch opens up. Spaceship slowly rises up
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: to the surface of the planet through the seaweed, past
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: the coral reefs until it pops up and begins to
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: float on the surface. Then the ship glows around you
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: once again and forms itself back into its traditional spaceship mode.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: You lift up off of the ground and the water
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: streams off of the ship. It rises up through the clouds,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: through the atmosphere, and out into space once again. You,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: feeling tired after such a strange adventure, head to your bedroom.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: You crawl into your bed, You pull the covers up
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to your chin, and you close your eyes. The lights
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: dim and you start to focus on your breath. With
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: each breath, your arms and legs begin to relax just
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: a little bit more, Sinking deeper and deeper into the mattress,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: you let go of the tension from your shoulders, from
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: your neck, from your head, and your face, until you're
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: just gently floating on the bed. The more you breathe,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: the deeper you sink, and the deeper you think, the
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: better you feel, until your mind starts to wander off
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: to thoughts of new dreams, new planets, and new adventures
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: to come. Good night, everyone, la never nion.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: A name ACoM never.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: In New yor
• 40:53
