Alfred, Winnie and Tom are on holiday on the island of Aroba, which moves a little every year. Alfred suggests to professor Tsjang that the island may be on the back of a giant turtle. But then the island is threatened by a tornado.
Tropes:
- No One Gets Left Behind: Alfred rejects Tsjang's plan to cram the institute's ship full of people and sail away from Aurora on the grounds that they could never take everybody with them.
- Acoustic License: You can't call or radio a submarine, especially one without any cables.
- Furry Confusion: You can hear seagull noises in Aurora's harbor.
- Misplaced Wildlife: An anglerfish appears at the depth of less than one hundred meters.
- Gender Flip: The kangaroo technician Alfred and Tsjang dive with is female in the finnish dub.
- Spit Take: When Alfred suggests that Aurora is on the back of a turtle, Tsjang spits his food and starts laughing.
- Furry Reminder: Winnie and Alfred still swim like real ducks.
- Insane Troll Logic: Alfred immediately concludes that the island is a turtle, for no reason and with zero evidence. After initially laughing, Tsjang then concludes that it makes sense, for no real reason. And the marine research institute also finds it believable enough to send them equipment.
