- Oh, hi!
- Race you to the take-off point!
- Oh, whoa!
- I can go faster than you both!
- Whoa!
[sighs] I can'’’t wait to get back to my quiet spot.
- Oh, I can see why.
Let'’’s go!
- Wait till you see what I did.
- Yeah?
- I really decorated it nicely.
It'’’s really something.
- Uh, well, it'’’s something, all right.
- Oh, no!
I--I don'’’t understand.
There were only two of them before.
What happened?
- I thought I heard you two back here.
So, Ripple, how'’’s it go--oh!
Orange sea stars!
What'’’re they doing here?
- Well, I just brought a couple in here to be part of my quiet spot.
- But orange sea stars are an invasive species to the Kelp Forest.
- So that sounds like a bad thing.
- You better believe it.
They do not belong in the Kelp Forest.
They like to eat kelp!
- And this is a kelp forest.
- Exactly!
Here in the Kelp Forest, there'’’s nothing to stop them from eating all the kelp... and multiplying!
- Oh, no!
- That'’’s why I always say, "Leave only your finprints behind."
- Oh!
And I left more than my finprints.
What am I going to do now?
- [gasps] I know!
We'’’ll help you move them.
[laughs] - Oh!
But this will take forever.
- No, it won'’’t.
We'’’ll work together.
- We sure will!
- Yeah!
- Huh.
You know, I have a feeling this just might work.
- Oh, I'’’m sorry, Tidy, Ripple didn'’’t know she wasn'’’t supposed to bring the orange sea stars into the Kelp Forest.
- Which is why I always say, "A place for everything and everything in its place."
[sighs] I'’’m not just called "Tidy" for my health, you know.
- Oh, I see.
I--I do, it makes so much more sense now.
- Oh, no!
