Plot
Coral peeks from the surface of the water to view the beach. She witnesses a foot race between Racer and Jock, then assumes she can beat them both. But she remembers she can't move on land because of her fish tail. Suddenly, Lumpy parks an ambulance on the beach, giving Coral an idea. She crawls onto the ambulance as Lumpy tries - and fails - to rescuscitate a drowned Toothy.

Being driven to a hospital, Coral is hauled to a room on a gurney. She tells the surgeon, Lumpy, that she would like a leg implant. Many hours later, Coral emerges from the operation room as a normal person. She then makes a list of things to do. She starts by running a marathon (and winning), trying on a pair of pants, and kicking a soccer ball over a gate.

Coral checks her list off and sees only dancing is left. So she brings herself to a dance floor and lets loose. Disco Bear happens to show up, grabs Coral, and spins her around. She ends up spinning out of control, shredding Disco Bear, and crashing into a wall.

Coral finds herself back at the hospital with one of her legs bandaged. She visits Lumpy to consider undoing her operation. Unfortunately, Lumpy has sold her tail to a sushi restaurant. Coral worriedly races out the building and across the street until reaching her destination. But she is too late as she sees Tokio chopping her tail into sushi.

Sitting on the beach at sunset, Coral is seen weeping. Jock walks past her for a swim. She is reminded that she can still swim despite the loss, so she jumps into the water and has the time of her life... until getting a leg cramp. She sinks into the ocean depths, when a fishing net miraculously saves her.

Coral is hauled on board Russell's ship. The pirate otter looks at her legs and gets an idea. The two later exit the hospital, except Coral now has peg legs while Russell has her actual legs.

Deaths

 * 1) Toothy explodes when Lumpy does mouth-to-mouth rescuscitation on him.
 * 2) Disco Bear is shedded by Coral's hair.

Trivia

 * This episode is similar to Aqua Disco from the previous season (in which Disco Bear becomes a merperson).
 * Toothy's death is similar to Cuddles' death in From Hero to Eternity.
 * Sniffles was originally in the episode, but was swapped with Lumpy for obvious reasons.
