[In Lisa and Corduroy's imagination, they're at the beach and they both finished the sandcastle]

Lisa:
A castle fit for a king.

Corduroy:
Someday I want to be a king.

Lisa:
Well, King Corduroy, do you want to go beachcombing?

Corduroy:
Beachcombing? (What's beachcombing?)

Lisa:
We'll look for seashells and other neat stuff (along the way).

Corduroy:
You mean like a treasure hunt?

Lisa:
[off-screen] Sort of. [on-screen] Come on.

[Corduroy follows Lisa. Lisa and Corduroy's footprints are shown on the sand as Lisa and Corduroy went to collect seashells. as Corduroy puts shells into the bucket, he sees a conch shell laying on the beach]

Corduroy:
[to Lisa when he finds a conch shell] Look!

[The camera zooms in to a conch shell. Corduroy runs through the beach and picks the conch shell with his paws]

Lisa:
Wow, that's a real big one. Try blowing it.

[Corduroy blows on the conch shell making a "very" long note]

Corduroy:
Whoa! What more could a bear ask for?

Lisa:
[sees another shell in the distance] Look how pretty that shell is.

[Another shell lays on the sandy beach. Corduroy touches the shell and it started to move]

Corduroy:
[laughs as he fell backwards] Hey! [laughing] This one moves.

[A hermit crab (who is inside the shell) continues to crawl through the sandy beach until Lisa picks him up and she looks inside his shell]

Lisa:
It's a hermit crab.

[The hermit crab comes out of his shell with a grumpy expression]

Lisa:
See? He's hiding.

Corduroy:
He doesn't look very happy (today).

Lisa:
I think he looks kind of crabby.

[Lisa and Corduroy begin to laugh with joy. Then Lisa put the hermit crab on the sandy beach and the hermit crab crawls away from Lisa and Corduroy so he can join in the other crabs]

Corduroy:
[off-screen] Whoa, it's a whole bunch of crabbies!

[Lisa and Corduroy started laughing again as the hermit crab went into the ocean. Suddenly, a baby sea turtle pops out of the sand after it hatched out from an egg]

Lisa:
[off-screen] Look, Corduroy. It's a baby (sea) turtle.

[The baby sea turtle crawls to the ocean]

Corduroy:
[off-screen] Where's it going?

Lisa:
Into the ocean. That's where it's going to grow up.

Corduroy:
[to Lisa as he watches the baby sea turtle goes into the ocean] Someday, I want to look inside the ocean and find out what else lives there.

Lisa:
I'd like that, too. Feel that ocean breeze?

[Lisa and Corduroy sigh together]

Corduroy:
It's so nice and cool.
