Be nice. It's his first time at school.

He was born with it.

We call it his lucky fin.

Dad... See this tentacle?

It's actually shorter

than all my other tentacles,

but you can't really tell.

Especially when I twirl them like this.

I'm H-2-O intolerant.

- Ah-choo!

- I'm obnoxious!

Oh

Let's name the zones, the zones, the zones

Let's name the zones of the open sea

Mr. Ray!

- Come on, Nemo!

- You better stay with me.

Mesopelagic, bathyal, abyssalpelagic

All the rest are too deep

for you and me to see

Huh. I wonder where my class has gone!

We're under here!

Oh, there you are!

Climb aboard, explorers.

Oh, knowledge exploring Is, oh, so lyrical

When you think thoughts

that are empirical

Dad, you can go now.

- Hello. Who is this?

- I'm Nemo.

Nemo, all new explorers

must answer a science question.

Okay. You live in what kind of home?

Ananemon-none.

Anemenem-menome.

Okay, don't hurt yourself.

Welcome aboard, explorers.

Just so you know, he's got a little fin.

I find if he's having trouble swimming...

I let him take a break, 10, 15 minutes.

Dad, it's time for you to go now.

Don't worry. We're gonna

stay together as a group.

OK, class, optical orbits up front.

And remember,

we keep our supraesophogeal ganglion

to ourselves.

- That means you, Jimmy.

- Aw, man!

Bye, Nemo!

Bye, Dad!

Bye, son!

Be safe.

You're doing pretty well for a first-timer.

You can't hold on to them forever, can you?

I had a tough time with my

oldest out at the drop off.

They got to grow up... The drop off?

They're going to the drop off?

What are you, insane?

Why don't we fry them up now

and serve them with chips?

Hey, Marty, calm down.

Don't tell me to be calm, pony boy.

Pony boy?

For a clownfish, he really isn't that funny.

Pity.

Oh

Let's name the species,

the species, the species

Let's name the species

that live in the sea

Whoa.

There's Porifera, coelenterata,

hydrozoa, scyphozoa

Anthozoa, ctenophora, bryozoas, three

Gastropoda, arthropoda, echinoderma

And some fish like you and me

Come on, sing with me!

Oh

Just the girls this time.

Oh, seaweed is cool

Seaweed is fun It makes its food

Okay, the drop off.

All right, kids, feel free to explore,

but stay close.

Stromalitic cyanobacteria! Gather.

An entire ecosystem contained

in one infinitesimal speck.

There are as many protein pairs contained in this...

Come on, let's go.

Come on, sing with me!

There's porifera, coelenterata,

hydrozoa, scyphozoa

Anthozoa, ctenophora, bryozoas, three

Hey, guys, wait up!

Whoa.

Cool.

Saved your life!
