"Tooter Loves Tadah" is the 12th episode of Season 3. Tooter falls for the new tooting snork named Tadah, but she is being cotnrolled by a large snork named Tubah, so both compete for her affection before the big school dance.
The Snorkland High (or Kelpmore High) band is rehearsing their musical number for the big dance that's coming up when Junior stops the music over how they need a new vibe. Pretty soon, Tadah - another tooting snork from the town of Snork Fort - comes in with her "boyfriend" Tubah, who has a huge sonic snork. Tooter instantly falls for her, but Tubah doesn't think he's good enough for her.
Tooter gets really angry, so Daffney suggests he build a giant sandcastle to impress Tadah so she would forget about Tubah. However, Tubah sees it and destroys it on impact, and then he challenges him to a race around the lagoon, meaning the winner would take Tadah to the school dance. However, the catch is that Tubah can't use his sonic snork to cheat, but he decides to cheat by trapping Tooter with it anyway. Junior is the first one to know besides Tooter because he saw what was going on. Meanwhile the others don’t know that. When Tubah and then Tooter got to Junior’s judge tower, Junior is about to give Tubah a piece of his mind and let Tooter win. However Tubah’s intimidating ways is frightening Junior, so Junior gives in and allows Tubah to win, much to Tooter’s dismay.
They visit Gallio for some advice on romance, and he gives him the Tootah Blaster to enhance his tooting. While Tadah is still being used by Tubah, Tooter blasts Tubah. Tadah gets angry becuase Tooter was acting just like Tubah.
At the kelp burger, Tooter is upset that Tadah doesn’t trust him. His friends try to cheer him up. However, since Tubah is gone, Junior feels comfortable to tell the group what really happened. Tooter actually did win the race and Tubah cheated. Junior only said that because Tubah‘s approach was way too intimidating. The others we’re not happy with Junior and they decided throw him out and he landed in the garbage dumpster much to his dismay.
Then Tooter has to go save Tadah and Tubah about to be eaten by a giant clam. Since he has saved her, Tubah lets her go to the dance with him, and the two tooting snorks dance happily together.
