Summary[]

While visiting the beach, Team Umizoomi discovers a statue of The Blue Mermaid. According to the legend, the Blue Mermaid once lived happily in the water by Umi City. Her tail was covered with beautiful blue scales that were so sparkly they could light up the sea. But one day, a scheming squid named Squiddy captured the mermaid so that he could keep her sparkling light all to himself. Just then, a bottle washes up on shore next to the Team. There's a message inside and it's from the Blue Mermaid! She needs Team Umizoomi to rescue her from Squiddy's secret sand castle. To help them find her, she's sending a trail of her sparkly scales to follow. But it's not going to be easy. Squiddy the squid will stop at nothing to keep Team Umizoomi from saving the day. [2]

Synopsis[]

Intro: The Legend of the Blue Mermaid[]

While the team hangs out by the beach, Milli finds a mermaid statue of a legendary creature known as the Blue Mermaid. Using Bot's robot computer, they find out that the Blue Mermaid loved her home and her friends and had a beautiful singing voice. The best thing about her was her tail; it glowed a beautiful blue light. Then one day, Squiddy the Squid saw her and wanted the tail's light for himself. He built a booby-trap and captured the Blue Mermaid. Now the team wonders if she's alright.

Message in the Bottle[]

All of a sudden, a bottle floats in the shore nearby and has a message inside it. The message was from the Blue Mermaid. It is revealed that Squiddy took her to his secret sand castle. The Blue Mermaid begs for Team Umizoomi to rescue her. She sends some of her sparkling blue scales to help them find her. The team then starts their ocean adventure as they sing the "We Are Team Umizoomi" song.

Waves and Sails[]

Geo builds a boat with his Super Shapes so the team can save Blue Mermaid. However, Squiddy the Squid notices them trying to get to his sandcastle. He tries to stop them with his so-called "latest invention" - a wave machine! He uses it to make waves so the boat can get tipped over, but Bot sees numbers on the waves, and counts down from those numbers back to one (1) so the waves can shrink before they come towards the team. The waves had a four (4), seven (7), and ten (10) on them, respectively. Squiddy gets frustrated by the team trying to get past all the waves, but when he tries to make a fourth one, his machine malfunctions and blows him far away. At least the team is out of trouble in the interim.

Triangle Safety[]

Team Umizoomi continues their progress and soon arrives on an island. Bot finds a coconut on the shore, and drinks out of it. The team follows the blue scales across the island, but Bot trips over the sand and drops his coconut on a 4-sided shape, which is booby-trapped because it sprang the coconut into the water. Milli then notices that Squiddy put booby-traps on the shapes that are on the island. She was right, and Squiddy tells the team that stepping on a shape will bounce them up into the air (Wheeee.... splash!). Luckily, the team also hears from Squiddy that he did not booby-trap the triangles. But then, a coconut falls on Squiddy, and he steps on a rectangle, and gets flung into the ocean himself! Now that the team is out of trouble again, Geo finds the triangles to step on and helps the make it across. Along the way, he sees another coconut fall on a shape and get flung into the air. The team does not let that stop them, as they make it across the island safe and sound, and are back on the trail of blue scales, which then went under the water.

Getting Crabby[]

The team goes underwater, and finds the Blue Mermaid in Squiddy's secret sandcastle, but Squiddy shows up yet again, and releases his greatest invention yet - robot crabs! They emerge from a box, and walk towards the team so as to stop them from getting to the Blue Mermaid. Bravely enough, the team does not let that stop them either, because Milli uses her Pattern Power to use a bubble pattern to trap a small crab, then a big crab, and then another big crab, all in that order. After capturing all of the robot crabs, she even manages to capture Squiddy in a bubble as well.

Conclusion: Deep Down Under the Sea[]

The team rescues Blue Mermaid, and Squiddy reveals that he only wanted the Blue Mermaid so she could light up his castle, and that was because Squiddy was afraid of the dark. He wasn't really evil or anything, but that was something that frightened him so much, that he felt like he had to get revenge when he heard that the Blue Mermaid had to be saved. As a result, the Blue Mermaid generously gives Squiddy one (1) of her scales to brighten up his castle. Now he feels better, thanks to that scale alone giving him the light he wanted. Squiddy also felt sorry for trapping the Blue Mermaid in the first place, and he decided that he will be nicer from there on forward. After that gets resolved, the sea creatures all celebrate with the Crazy Shake before the team signs off, ending the episode.
