destiny and bailey peered across the way, ready and waiting. on the other side of the glass, tourists happily snapped pictures of them. bailey looked out intensely, waiting for the right moment. "okay," he said. "when i tell you you're gonna —"
"yeah, i got it, okay," said destiny. "i'm gonna signal with a big splash."
"not clear yet ...," said bailey, keeping his eyes focused on the crowd.
meanwhile, on the other side of the room, dory and hank hid in an empty stroller in the rack. from inside the sippy cup on the tray, dory's eyes 1 left and right as she waited for the signal. hank gobbled up some 2 goldfish 3 in the undercarriage.
"you know something?" he said. "i have no idea why you're even doing this."
"what do you mean?" asked dory.
"seems like a lot of trouble just to find some more fish. if i had short-term memory loss, i'd just swim off into the blue and forget everything," hank admitted.
"but i don't want to do that. i want my family."
"not me, kid. i don't want anyone to worry about. you're lucky. no memories, no problems."
bailey watched from the tank as parents parked their strollers. "still not clear ... still not clear."
"you don't have to say when it's not time," said destiny, irritated.
"not —" bailey said again.
"just tell me when it is time!" said destiny.
"okay, here we go ... and ... wait!"
"are you serious!"
"okay, on the count of three," said bailey.
"don't count, just say, ‘go —'"
"go! now! now! do it! do it!" urged bailey. destiny leapt out of the water, making a giant splash that sent all the gawking tourists 4 and 5 with delight.
"wow, look at that," said dory. she was in 6 of the splash.
"that's the signal!" shouted hank, reminding her.
"go, go, go! that's the signal!" repeated dory.
the stroller carefully rolled forward and took off, keeping pace amongst the moving crowd. hank drove from down below using his 7 while dory 8 from the sippy cup.
"now remember, destiny said that deep sea drive will take us to open ocean," said hank. "so follow the signs that say deep sea drive."
dory repeated, "deep sea drive to open ocean gets me to my family."
she looked ahead and saw the sign for deep sea drive pointing to the right. blue tangs were pictured on the banners on the wall. "go right!"
hank turned right and kept the stroller on the side of the pathways, but he couldn't avoid bumping into a couple of people along the way.
"left!" yelled dory.
"and 9 clear of people, will ya?" hank called up from the undercarriage. "especially kids! i don't want to be touched."
"shhh! do not mess me up!" said dory, trying to concentrate. she took her eyes of the road to respond to hank, but when she looked back, she was headed straight toward a kid holding a bag of 10.
"ahh!" she shouted.
in a last-ditch effort to avoid a crash, dory and hank were thrown from the stroller. dory, still in her cup, rolled over to some parents. one of the mothers noticed the cup and began walking toward the stroller. "oh, poor baby," she said, picking up the cup. "let me get that for you."
hank 11 looked around for somewhere to hide. his only choice was to 12 himself as a human baby before the mother leaned in to return the cup. so he did — and just in time.
"oh, my," the mother muttered to herself, looking at the strange baby in the stroller. hank was a very strange-looking baby indeed. she quickly put the cup in the hands of the "baby" and turned away. hank drank from it in an attempt to look more baby-like.
"i used to think all babies were cute," the mother said quietly, looking around.
now that hank and dory were reunited, they continued their search. "where do we go?" hank begged.
"oh. sorry! okay, i was looking ...," dory said, panicking.

up above, becky flew over the institute with marlin and nemo in the bucket.
"roo-roo, becky! drop us anywhere!" said marlin. "we're okay!"
"just wait, dad! i think she's looking for a place to land," said nemo.
"she's confused, nemo! she doesn't even know which way to look!"
she suddenly changed course and flew toward a tree. she hung the pail that contained nemo and marlin on a branch, 15 down to the popcorn and began to eat.
★★★
hank and dory continued in the stroller, but dory became confused when they reached an 16. she looked around, puzzled, trying to figure out how to make the right choice.
"which way?" nudged hank.
dory's face lit up when her eyes landed on a sign that read the world's most powerful pair of glasses! next to the sign was an arrow pointing to the left.
"i remember that!" dory shouted. "we need to go left!"
unfortunately, she didn't see the sign for deep sea drive, which 17 to the right.
★★★
marlin and nemo were 18 inside the pail, hanging from the branch, while becky fought other birds for 19 of popcorn.
marlin called to her, but becky was focused on eating as much popcorn as possible — and she was out of earshot. "we have to get closer to becky so she can hear us," marlin said. he inched the pail down the branch, in an effort to close the gap between them.
"i don't think we should move the pail," said nemo.
marlin continued to inch. "nemo, without me, becky is lost."
"dad, just trust her."
"trust her? so she can forget us altogether?"
"i trust becky," said nemo.
the pail moved further down the branch. "you trust becky," marlin said incredulously. "becky's eating a cup!" he gestured in her direction. she had a cup over her head and was turning in circles, looking confused.
"becky!" marlin tried calling again. "loo-loo!"
whip! suddenly, the weight of the pail moving down the branch caused it to fling upward. it launched marlin and nemo out of the pail and into the sky! screaming, they landed on an outdoor 20 and tumbled into a tank of toy robot fish in the gift shop.
"well, at least we're not stuck in a bucket anymore," said marlin.
they watched through the glass of the toy tank as becky finished eating and flew back to the pail. she grabbed it and flew to the roof of quarantine, then 21 into the pail and squawked, confused.
"or on top of quarantine," said nemo.
marlin sighed.
运儿和贝利隔着墙凝视着,准备伺机而行。玻璃墙的另一边,游客们正在开心地为他俩啪啪地拍照。贝利紧张地留神看着,等待着恰当的时机。“好的,”他说,“我叫你的时候,你就得——”
“是的,我知道了,好的,”运儿说,“我要溅起个大水花作为信号。”
“时机未到……”贝利说着,双目注视着人群。
与此同时,在房间另一边的推车取放处,多莉和汉克躲在了一辆空着的轻便婴孩车里。多莉藏在托盘上的吸管杯里,两眼不停地左右快速转动,等待着信号。汉克则在狼吞虎咽地吃着残留在底架里的一些金鱼饼干。
“你知道吗?”他说,“我真不明白你为什么要这样做。”
“什么意思?”多莉问。
“就是说弄得这么麻烦,不过是为了找某些鱼。如果我有短时记忆丧失症,我就会离开,游向大海,将一切忘得一干二净。”汉克坦白道。
“可我不想那么做。我想要我的家人。”
“我可不会,孩子。我不想让人担心。你可真走运。没有记忆,没有烦恼。”
贝利从水箱里向外望着,几个父母们正在停放他们的婴孩车。“时机未到……时机未到。”
“时机没到的话,你就不必说,”运儿恼怒地说道。
“未——”贝利又说道。
“时机到了再说!”运儿说。
“好吧,我们动手吧……等等!”
“开什么玩笑!”
“好吧,倒数数三下。”贝利说。
“别数了,就说,‘动手——’”
“动手!就现在!现在!开始!开始!”贝利催促道。运儿跳出水面,溅起了一波巨浪,惊得让一直呆呆望着他们的游客们四处散开,开心地尖声喊叫。
“哇噢,瞧瞧那个。”多莉敬畏地望着浪花说道。
“那是信号!”汉克提醒她道。
“快,快,快!那是信号!”多莉重复道。
婴孩车滚动着向前跑了起来,随着人流一起移动。汉克在下方用触角驾驶着,多莉则在吸管杯里掌控着方向。
“现在记好了,运儿说深海通道会带我们去深海奥秘展区,”汉克说,“所以顺着深海通道的指示牌走就好。”
多莉重复道:“深海通道可达深海奥秘展区带我找到家人。”
她向前一望,看见深海通道指示牌指向了右边。挂在墙上的横幅正好画着蓝唐王鱼。“右拐!”
汉克向右一拐,尽量让婴孩车靠通道旁边行驶,可还是无可避免地撞上了路边的几个人。
“向左!”多莉喊道。
“避开人群,好吗?”汉克在底架里喊道,“尤其是孩子!我可不想被他们碰到。”
“嘘!别给我添乱!”多莉说,竭力想要集中注意力。她目光离开道路,回应了一下汉克,可等她回转目光时,却发现自己正径直朝着一位拿着爆米花的孩子冲了过去。
“啊!”她叫道。
为了躲过碰撞,多莉和汉克拼死努力,最后双双从婴孩车上甩了出来。依然还在杯子里的多莉滚到了几位父母跟前。其中一位母亲瞧见了杯子,朝着婴孩车走了过去。“噢,可怜的宝宝,”她说着捡起杯子,“我来帮你捡起来。”
汉克狂乱地四处寻找藏身之处。他别无选择,只能在这位母亲起身归还杯子前伪装成一个婴儿。于是他就这样做了——非常及时。
“噢,天啊,”这位母亲望着婴孩车里奇怪的婴儿喃喃自语道。汉克的婴儿扮相确实非常奇怪。她迅速地把杯子放还到“婴儿”手中,转身离开了。汉克还从杯子中吸了一口,好让自己显得更像婴儿。
“我还以为所有的婴儿都很可爱。”这位母亲四处望了望低声说道。
汉克和多莉又相聚了,于是他们继续探索之旅。“我们该往哪儿走?”汉克恳切地问道。
“哦。对不起!好吧,我正在找……”多莉惊慌失措地说道。

天空之上,贝琪带着桶里的马林和尼莫正飞过研究所的上方。
“噜——噜,贝琪!随便找个地方放我们下来!”马林说,“我们可以了!”
“等一会儿,爸爸!我想她正在找着陆的地方。”尼莫说。
“她糊涂了,尼莫!她甚至都不知道该往哪里看!”
“嘎嘎!噜——噜?”贝琪说道,她忽然被撒满地的爆米花给吸引住了目光。
她突然转变路线,朝着一棵树飞了过去。她将装着尼莫和马林的提桶挂在了树枝上,然后俯冲下去扑向爆米花,吃了起来。
★★★
汉克和多莉依然还在婴孩车里,可当他们行驶到了一个十字路口之后,多莉便开始困惑起来。她环视四周,迷惑不安,努力地想要弄清楚正确方向。
“哪一边?”汉克轻推道。
多莉的视线落在了一个标志之上,她顿时面露喜色,上面写着世界上最厉害的眼镜!标志旁边有一个箭头,箭头指向了左边。
“我记得那个!”多莉喊道。“我们得向左拐!”
不幸的是,她没有看到深海通道的标志,而那个是在右边。
★★★
马林和尼莫被困在了挂在树枝上的提桶里,此时贝琪正和其他鸟儿争夺着一粒粒爆米花。
马林呼唤着她,可贝琪正全神贯注地大吃特吃着爆米花——她什么都听不见。“我们必须靠近贝琪,这样她才能听见我们。”马林说。他将提桶往树梢压了压,努力想要缩减他们之间的距离。
“我觉得我们不该挪动提桶。”尼莫说。
马林继续挪着:“尼莫,没有我,贝琪就迷路了。”
“爸爸,相信她就好了。”
“相信她?好让她把我们给彻底忘了?”
“我相信贝琪。”尼莫说。
提桶又朝树梢移动了一些。“你相信贝琪,”马林不以为然地说道,“可贝琪却正在吃杯子!”他朝她指了过去。此时她头上罩着个杯子,正一圈圈地转着,满脸困惑的样子。
“贝琪!”马林又试着呼唤起来,“噜——噜!”
啪嗒!突然之间,提桶向下的重力将树枝反弹了回去,马林和尼莫被甩出提桶,抛向了空中!他们惊声尖叫着落在了户外遮阳篷上,然后又翻腾着掉进了礼品店里的一个水箱里,里面满是玩具机器鱼
“好吧,至少我们没有被困在桶里了。”马林说。
透过玩具鱼缸,他们看见贝琪吃完之后便飞回了提桶。她抓住它,朝着隔离检疫所的屋顶飞了过去,然后她瞥了一眼桶里,疑惑地嘎嘎直叫。
“不然就在隔离检疫所的屋顶上了。”尼莫说。
马林发出了一声叹息。
