Plot Summary
[]

Allstar, Casey, and Tooter are really bored after school. They decide to visit Dr. Gallio since it's the most exciting thing they've thought of all day, but as they swim over to his lab, a giant shoe catches them. They end up on a man's boat with his dog Bowser who tries to eat them. Because the snorks can actually talk, he believes they'll be worth millions. 

The teenage snorks are placed in his Sea Shore Sideshow in the tiny seafaring town on the coast. The snorks are required to perform in front of hundreds of humans, but they refuse at first. When they actually do it, Allstar gets annoyed by Tooter and Casey enjoying all the fame and attention. Allstar ends up overhearing the man talking to Bowser that they'll be going to Cleveland someday. Allstar knows this is bad, so he writes a message and manages to get it thrown back into the ocean. 

Corky is swimming in town when he sees the letter Allstar wrote, so he has Jojo come along with him to save the others. As the performances and clean-ups continues, Casey and Tooter grow exhausted and miss Snorkland. Corky and Jojo happen to arrive in the nick of tiem, so as they escape, Jojo and Corky interrogate Bowser and end up trapping the man in the goldfish bowl and lock him inside his own sideshow booth. They reach back to the shore, glad to be out of there. They end up seeing an ordinary poodle walk by, and they get so scared they jump back into the sub. Considering Allstar's had enough excitement for one day, he's now looking forward to another boring day in Snorkland.
