## **Transcript**

**The episode starts out with the Reeftown Rangers playing a game of Finball**

**Splash**: I'm open! I'm open!

**Ripple**: Coming at ya, Splash!

**Ripple knocks the pebble over to Splash**

**Splash**: Got it! Alright, Bubbles, this next one's for you!

**Bubbles**: You got it! **Catches it** Alright, Dunk, hope you're ready!

**Dunk tries to catch it, only to miss as it flies into a cave**

**Dunk**: Whoops. Sorry, guys.

**Splash**: It's alright, Dunk. I'll go get it.

**Ripple**: Hey, wait a minute. I've never seen this cave before.

**Bubbles**: You're right, Ripple. It doesn't look like anyone's been in it.

**Splash**: Well then, our mission is to explore and find out what's inside. Come on, Reeftown Rangers.

**The Reeftown Rangers head into the cave**

**Dunk**: I wonder what's on the other side.

**Splash**: So do I. Who knows? There might be treasure.

**Ripple**: I really hope that it's treasure!

**Bubbles**: The end of the cave is coming up, so we're about to find out.

**The Reeftown Rangers make it to the end of the cave to the exit**

**Splash**: Oh... No treasure, but where are we now?

**Ripple**: I was really hoping for a treasure of some kind!

**Bubbles**: Me, too. Wait... What is that thing over there?

**A massive creature was swimming about**

**Dunk**: I don't know, but it looks giant.

**Splash**: That doesn't look like any sea creature I've ever seen.

**The creature was in a panic looking for something**

**???**: Where is it? I know it's gotta be around here somewhere!

**Ripple**: Whatever that is, it looks like it's trying to find something.

**Dunk**: It might need help.

**Splash**: Come on, Reeftown Rangers. Let's investigate.

**Bubbles**: But Splash, that thing looks scary. Maybe we should leave it alone.

**Splash**: We'll be fine, Bubbles. Now come on, everyone.

**The Reeftown Rangers approach the creature**

**Ripple**: Look at those teeth!

**Splash**: Um... Hello?

**The creature looks over**

**???**: Oh, hello there. Are you new here? I don't think we've met.

**Splash**: Well, it's nice to meet you. I'm Splash, and these are my friends. Bubbles, Dunk, and Ripple.

**Bubbles**: Hello.

**Lola**: I'm Lola. Nice to meet you.

**Ripple**: What kind of sea creature are you?

**Lola**: I'm a Liopleurodon. I'm a large species of marine reptile from millions of years ago. It looks like you found our cave, huh?

**Dunk**: Wait, so that cave took us back in time?

**Lola**: Yep. We've had to keep that cave a secret for everyone's safety.

**Bubbles**: We kind of just stumbled upon it while playing one of our games.

**Lola**: It's alright. We don't get many visitors around here. Why did you four come to me?

**Splash**: We noticed that you were frantically searching for something. Can we help?

**Lola**: Yes. I have this rock collection, but it went missing and now I can't find it. Can you help?

**Bubbles**: Of course we can! That's the Reeftown Rangers' job!

**Lola**: You call yourselves the Reeftown Rangers?

**Splash**: Yeah!

**Lola**: Well, come on. We have a rock collection to find!
