Shark Bait Page #3

---

Troy!

Hey, that's me.

I'll be back when you're done

playing mommy to that little hunk of bait.

Vamanos...

- You got fully thrashed, dude.

- What?

Axed. Hemo-ed. Smeared. creamed,

obliterated, flattened,

murdered, wipe out!

That wasn't the smartest

thing I've ever seen.

He hit me when I wasn't looking!

There's only one dangerous place

on the Reef.

And that's between Troy

and whatever he wants.

Go home and get that

taken care of yourself.

- What... Cordelia!

- Troy is my problem,

and I don't want anyone else

getting hurt on my account.

But...

- Busy first day, dude.

- Yeah.

Listen, I've gotta find my aunt Pearl.

She's supposed to be

this weird kind of New Age,

fortune teller type sort of...

...koo, koo!

You know, crazy,

Basically insane.

- You don't happen to know her, do you?

- Yeah, dude. She's my mom.

I see it...yes. Oh boy,

that doesn't look good.

What do you see?

Will my dreams come true?

- Well, that depends.

- On what?

Do your dreams involve sitting on a sink

next to a bottle of dishwashing liquid?

This can't be!

My cousin's a loofah! She's exfoliated

some of the most prominent backsides around!

But I get to

scrub pots?

NO!

Curse you,

star-crossed DESTINY...!

Sponges.

They're all so emotional.

At least she's not stuck in this pinnacle

all day and you get all the pretty!

Sorry, Madge.

- Dude.

- Dylan!

Ohh! Pi!

You made it!

- You knew I was coming?

- Of course darling.

While meditating, my astral form

achieved a transcendent communion

with none other than

the Spirit of the Sea!

And it revealed to me

a vision of your arrival!

And a passing porpoise mentioned

you were in the neighborhood.

Then...you know

what happened to my parents.

Oh, Pi, I'm so sorry!

But I think they're

in a better place now

Yeah. In a sushi bar.

- Can it stop, fish!

- Don't hurt me!

The Reef is where

you'll find your destiny, honey

Give me your fin,

I'll tell your fortune...

Oh, fish...

Boy, let's see chapter two.

Hey, I can't wait to

see all these sentences!

Here come the Pull

on dorsal fin probe.

I don't really

believe in that stuff.

The Reef is a place

where dreams come true.

Unless you happen to

be a sponge.

Now Pi, the Reef is paradise,

and you can go

anywhere you want.

But stay away from the old wreck.

It's haunted by dead pirates.

Cool!

And most important of all:

we never, ever, ever

go to Flatbottom.

- What's Flatbottom?

- It's a place we never go.

Awe Mom. You're not going out

in public like that, are you?

I like to have a little star quality.

Plus, It gives me more height and

helps to de-emphasize my tail fin.

Right?

I'm gonna need some time freshen up first,
