Looks like you'’’re kind of stuck here for now, until the tide comes in.

That'’’s okay because when the tide comes back in, I'’’ll be protected from the crashing waves.

Uh-oh, but how will I move towards the finish line?

Wow, I can'’’t believe it!

What?

It'’’s beautiful!

What'’’s beautiful?

What is it!?

Awesome!

Awesome!

What?

I can'’’t move as a barnacle.

What is it?

A starfish!

A starfish!

Or a sea star if you like to call them that.

MARTIN: A starfish?

Oh, let me see!

Let me see!

AVIVA: Oh, he'’’s climbing onto that mussel.

Why is he wrapping around it like that?

He'’’s hugging it.

Wrapping around a mussel?

That means he'’’s going to eat it.

That'’’s a rarely-seen wildlife moment!

I got to see this!

(Grunting) Wow!

It looks like he'’’s pulling it apart!

Why is he doing that?

Okay, he'’’s going to use his super strong arms to pry the mussel open so he can eat the animal inside.

But where'’’s his mouth?

On the underside of the starfish in the centre.

Eww, but it looks like something'’’s coming out of his mouth.

MARTIN: Yeah, that'’’s his stomach.

His stomach?

Yeah, a starfish can actually push his stomach outside his body and put it inside the mussel.

He digests the mussel right inside its shell.

Then the stomach scoops it up and goes back into the starfish.

This is really weird, cool weird.

I know.

I know.

Oh, and I can'’’t see it, no fair.

Sorry, barnacle dude, you can'’’t deactivate, unless you want to lose the challenge, of course?

No, I guess.

But, hey, starfish are pretty good underwater walkers.

If I could get starfish power after the tide comes in, I can get mobile and head to the finish line.

I think I can help with that.
