0:00:02 > 0:00:05Remember, Jeffrey, the Junior Nektons are our guests.
0:00:05 > 0:00:08So when they get here, don't forget to smile!
0:00:09 > 0:00:12Dazzling! You charmer(!)
0:00:12 > 0:00:16Yes! I now have their entire schedule mapped out.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Erm, about that.
0:00:18 > 0:00:22You're really sure you two can handle hosting eight-year-old kids
0:00:22 > 0:00:24on your own for a whole day?
0:00:24 > 0:00:26Is that a trick question?
0:00:26 > 0:00:29It's just that looking after children is hard.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32Ha, as if! Oh, you're serious?
0:00:32 > 0:00:36And I'm just having trouble picturing you two co-operating,
0:00:36 > 0:00:39- because... How do I put this? - It rarely happens.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Please, we always work perfectly together.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46- We're like two peas in a... - Shoebox!- Exactly.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Come on, these Junior Nektons
0:00:50 > 0:00:53are going to get to see a whale migration up close.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55They'll be too amazed to be any trouble.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58And me personally, I'm totally relaxed.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01My motto - have fun and everything takes care of itself.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03And suddenly, I don't know this person.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05HELICOPTER WHIRS AHEAD
0:01:05 > 0:01:06Finally!
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Come on, Alan, move!
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Is it always rocking like this?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25I can't wait to meet Fontaine!
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- Very cool, Ted. - Very, very cool, Todd.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Welcome, Junior Nek...
0:01:30 > 0:01:34Welcome, members of the worldwide Junior Nekton Fanclub
0:01:34 > 0:01:35to The Aronnax.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Or should I say, our home, the ocean.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41A place that's filled with as much fun as it is krill.
0:01:41 > 0:01:46So I just have one question for you, Junior Nektons, are you ready
0:01:46 > 0:01:49to have fun?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51OK...
0:01:51 > 0:01:54My family are explorers.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56We have been for generations.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57While others look up to the stars,
0:01:57 > 0:01:59we know there are an infinite number of things
0:01:59 > 0:02:02that shine in the darkness below.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05There are things lurking in the seas that long ago vanished into myth.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09My family are explorers - and we explore
0:02:09 > 0:02:11The Deep.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24So, Charlie, if you have any questions
0:02:24 > 0:02:28about becoming a future submarine captain, you know who to ask.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Fontaine!
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Yes, Fontaine, that's who I meant.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35She's just going to mingle.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Nice smile, Jeffrey!
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Fontaine! I read that you love sea birds!
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Oh, Ant wrote that on my profile, but really...
0:02:45 > 0:02:48So I learned the calls of all 312 species of sea bird, just for you.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Number one, the red-footed booby.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55SHE IMITATES BIRD CALL
0:02:55 > 0:02:57You're really only eight?
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Actually, I'm only seven. I turn eight next month.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01SHE IMITATES BIRD CALL
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Jeffrey looks bigger on his poster. Do you feed him enough?
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Oh, yeah, Jeffrey eats like a little walrus.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11This is delicious red kelp.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Actually, Jeffrey doesn't eat kelp.
0:03:15 > 0:03:16And now suddenly you like it?
0:03:16 > 0:03:18You could have told me.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Number 15, the shy albatross.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24SHE IMITATES BIRD CALL
0:03:24 > 0:03:27That albatross doesn't sound shy.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29WHALE CALLS
0:03:29 > 0:03:30Attention, Junior Nektons,
0:03:30 > 0:03:33this is the moment you've been waiting for.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36I present the annual sperm whale migration.
0:03:38 > 0:03:39ALL: Wow!
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Physeter macrocephalus in the flesh.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51I was just about to say that.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Now, everyone, part of our conservation work...
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Oh, please, Mum, I got this.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Part of our conservation work
0:03:58 > 0:04:01involves tracking these huge mammals.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- You mean...you follow them? - No, Ted, and/or Todd.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08We place electronic trackers on the lead male.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12- Or a bull, as it is more commonly known.- Exactly.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15And that is where our parents are heading right now.
0:04:15 > 0:04:20We'll be back in ten. Enjoy the show! You...you've got this?
0:04:20 > 0:04:22We've SO got this.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24SHE IMITATES BIRD CALL
0:04:26 > 0:04:30And I'll be describing every step of this fascinating process.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45KIDS: Whoa!
0:04:45 > 0:04:48This is the coolest...
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Thing ever. Why are my ears clicking?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54That clicking sound is...
0:04:54 > 0:04:56The whales talking to each other.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59That giant nose makes a sperm whale's clicks the loudest...
0:04:59 > 0:05:04- Sounds produced by any single animal!- Thank you, Alan!
0:05:04 > 0:05:05If you look out the window,
0:05:05 > 0:05:08you'll see that skilled co-pilot, Will Nekton,
0:05:08 > 0:05:10is placing the tracker now.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Tracker attached to dorsal ridge.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Getting a signal, Fontaine?
0:05:19 > 0:05:24- Strong and clear.- Excuse me, should we be concerned about that?
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Personally, I am.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29If you zoom in, I think you'll find that that's a driftnet,
0:05:29 > 0:05:31right in the path of those whales.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35- A driftnet?- How far away?
0:05:35 > 0:05:3812 degrees north, 3.5 nautical miles away.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40At the whales' current speed,
0:05:40 > 0:05:42the lead whales will hit it in 20 minutes.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44We're on our way.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- What would happen if... - The whales hit the net?
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Those nets are lethal Ted, or Todd.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52Whales that get tangled up can drown.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Fontaine - fun, remember?
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Did you know that sperm whales sleep vertically?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00I tried sleeping like that once.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- I fell over.- Yeah, onto me!
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Can you cut through it, Dad?
0:06:03 > 0:06:05We have got power shears and the rover's arms.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07We should be able to.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08But we don't have much time.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11We need to remove it before the whales get there.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17That doesn't look right.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19BOTH: Are those...lobster pots?
0:06:19 > 0:06:22The baby one can't reach the surface to breathe.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25I get asthma, so I can relate.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Two whale emergencies at once?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30- Really?- Shall we call...
0:06:30 > 0:06:33- Your parents?- No, they've got their own whale emergency.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Hey, we can handle stuff, too.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45And I'm staying here with the Junior Nektons, because...?
0:06:45 > 0:06:48That baby needs help right now and a knight is our best option.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50And also cos I'm faster than you.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00The lobster pots look like they're wrapped really tight.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05She understands I want to help.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Steady, little guy. It's going to be OK.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14We just need to get these ropes off of you.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19- WHALE SCREAMS Ah!- Ant, are you OK?
0:07:20 > 0:07:24Ant, can you read me?
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Ant!
0:07:27 > 0:07:31Ant, Ant, come in. Do you read?
0:07:31 > 0:07:35Is there some alternate holiday package for us, if this turns ugly?
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Fontaine, I'm OK.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43The baby didn't understand what you were doing.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45I still have to try.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Driftnets are totally illegal here.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51This one looks huge.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55It's worse in person. Look.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05These fishermen just don't care what they catch.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Dolphins, sea lions, whales.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- Sometimes I...- I know, me too,
0:08:10 > 0:08:13but we have eight minutes before the lead whales arrive.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19This calf needs oxygen and it can't reach the surface.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21I think I've got it.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22Got what?
0:08:22 > 0:08:26You know how some of my best plans involve an element of risk?
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Your worst ones, too.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Make sure the moon pool door is wide open and the harness is ready.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34You're kidding. You're bringing it aboard?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36The calf won't like it and the mum will hate it,
0:08:36 > 0:08:39but it's the only place it will get air to survive.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45That will be so much fun!
0:08:45 > 0:08:46SHE IMITATES BIRD CALL
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- Can we help?- Why not?
0:08:50 > 0:08:53You won't like this, but it's for your own good.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00It'll be OK, little guy.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09Come on, come on.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Fontaine, harness, up, now!
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Close the moon pool. Hurry!
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- Are we sinking? - No, it's the mother whale.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26She's trying to get the calf back.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32We have to hurry. The mother isn't happy.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35- Ted and Todd, grab the hose. - BOTH: Yes, Fontaine!
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Stay back, but keep the calf hydrated.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51The calf, not me!
0:09:51 > 0:09:53BOTH: Sorry!
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Alan, on that monitor.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00That device will give you a read-out of the calf's vital signs.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Is that pulse and blood pressure? Whoa! They're all over the place.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07At least he can breathe, I'll try to make this quick.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- Fontaine?- Can't talk right now, Mom.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14We've got a whale aboard.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20- Did you say, whale? - Just a baby... We can handle it.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24- A baby? What? - She did say whale, right?
0:10:24 > 0:10:27- She did.- How long have we got here?
0:10:27 > 0:10:28Maybe three minutes.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Fontaine, I want details.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34And you'll get them.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- Guess what this is. - SHE IMITATES BIRD CALL
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Charlie, do you want to get squashed?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Stay back. - What? Who's getting squashed?
0:10:44 > 0:10:45Nobody. Got to go, mom.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Calf's getting faster vitals.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50Do we have any anti-nausea medication?
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- Not enough for a whale. - I meant for me.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Charlie.
0:11:02 > 0:11:03- Fontaine.- No!
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Please obey instructions, young lady.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07- Move away.- But I...
0:11:11 > 0:11:14All these numbers keep dropping.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Right. Let's get you back in the water.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34It's damaged. It won't open.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38So, how do we get the calf out?
0:11:38 > 0:11:40I really don't...know.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Will, we're out of time, look.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54I'll pull the net tight, you start cutting.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58OK, Will, now.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17What's that?
0:12:17 > 0:12:20This is how I find the owner.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Boys, be careful in here. That button floods the moon pool.
0:12:28 > 0:12:29BOTH: Sorry.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32All of the calf's vital signs are way down in the red zone.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38BOTH: Why can't we hear the mother any more, Ant?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41The mother can't hear the calf's call any more,
0:12:41 > 0:12:44so she's returned to the other whales without him.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46- Right, Ant?- And this little guy will never survive
0:12:46 > 0:12:48without his mother's milk.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Where's Charlie?- She ran off.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54She was making these sad little bird noises.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56She was upset with you.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Oh, no.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Come on, moon pool. Open up.
0:13:01 > 0:13:02Rover to Aronnax.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04- Ant, are you there?- Here, Dad.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07And things aren't going too well.
0:13:07 > 0:13:12Charlie, I'm sorry I told you to go away. Charlie?
0:13:14 > 0:13:16Dad, the iris still won't open.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Use that overactive imagination of yours, Ant,
0:13:19 > 0:13:21you will find a solution.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Maybe. Maybe not.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26This calf has a very low life expectancy,
0:13:26 > 0:13:29so what are you going to do?
0:13:29 > 0:13:32You've got all the answers, Alan, why don't you tell me?
0:13:32 > 0:13:33I-I...
0:13:33 > 0:13:35I just know what I read in books.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38I'm not like you. You solve things.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Yeah, sometimes.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Remember when you rescued the albino megamouth shark
0:13:42 > 0:13:44from freezing in the fjord?
0:13:44 > 0:13:48- Or when you escaped that collapsing underwater cave?- Yeah.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Remember when you single-handedly steered
0:13:50 > 0:13:52the Aronnax out of that whirlpool?
0:13:52 > 0:13:54How do you remember these stories?
0:13:54 > 0:13:58- I remember every Ant Nekton story. - Ant Nekton is my hero.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Ant, you're the reason I became interested in
0:14:02 > 0:14:05the ocean in the first place.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07If there's one thing Ant Nekton has taught me
0:14:07 > 0:14:11it's that you've got to have faith in the fish.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14BOTH: Yeah! Have faith in the fish.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Although it is a whale,
0:14:16 > 0:14:19so the correct motto is "Have faith in the mammal".
0:14:19 > 0:14:20Watch that button.
0:14:20 > 0:14:25It floods the whole... Ted and Todd, one of you has given me an idea.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27We should flood the room.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Charlie?
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Charlie, I'm not great at apologies.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I never really have to apologise to Ant.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42He's always wrong. But I'm sorry.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Today I learned how hard it is to raise kids
0:14:45 > 0:14:47in this fast-paced modern submarine.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49I learned this.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51SHE IMITATES WHALE CALL
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Wait. Is that the mother whale?
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Would you like the baby, too? Listen.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59SHE IMITATES BABY WHALE CALL
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Charlie.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02You may have just saved the day.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05OK, Alan, fill the moon pool up to here.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07We need to create enough pressure to force the door.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Are we going to need scuba gear?
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Yeah. That might be a good idea.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19OK, Charlie, before the mother whale gets too far away maybe we can bring
0:15:19 > 0:15:23her back, by using your whale sounds over the exterior speakers.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24Does that sound like a plan?
0:15:24 > 0:15:26SHE IMITATES WHALE CALL
0:15:30 > 0:15:33OK. I'll see if we can use the extra pressure to force
0:15:33 > 0:15:34the other door open.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41Come on! Hmmm.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44The laser cutter.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47SHE IMITATES WHALE CALL
0:15:47 > 0:15:49I love this girl!
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Mom, Dad, can you see the mother whale?
0:15:56 > 0:15:57Nothing here, Fontaine.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00We'll turn back and see if we can find her.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05Just need to straighten this a bit more.
0:16:05 > 0:16:06Yes!
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Alan, try to open it now.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Awesome! It worked!
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Oh, no. Careful.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24We created a whirlpool from the pressure.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Hang on tight.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29THEY SCREAM
0:16:29 > 0:16:31No!
0:16:37 > 0:16:40Fontaine, we have a problem.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Ant, the Junior Nektons are in the ocean?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47I know, I know, I'm trying to fix this.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Gotcha. Got them, Fontaine.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55The calf, it just doesn't know what to do.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58It's lost and it's not going to make it without the mother.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Can you see the mother whale?
0:17:00 > 0:17:02No, no sign.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06SHE IMITATES WHALE CALL
0:17:10 > 0:17:13Oh, this isn't good. The calf won't survive alone like this.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Oh, no.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18SHE IMITATES WHALE CALL
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Huh?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Charlie, you did it!
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Is that a hostile expression?
0:17:48 > 0:17:52No-one move. Just stay calm.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57This is OK.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00I think she knows that we are friends.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Guys, hold on.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Is that what I think it is?
0:18:15 > 0:18:16Are you seeing this?
0:18:21 > 0:18:22She's bringing them back!
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Woo-hoo, all right!
0:18:25 > 0:18:27She's bringing them home.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31OK. Let go.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45You're welcome.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53I used this to track down the fishing company.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56They were nice enough to collect that net in a hurry.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Bye, Mr and Mrs Nekton.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02- We'll miss you. - We'll miss you, too, Ted.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05- Was that Ted?- Uh, no idea.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07SHE IMITATES BIRD CALL
0:19:07 > 0:19:10And that was number 24, the city shearwater.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Wow. All right.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Pity I never got to hear all 312.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19- I could put them all on a CD for you.- That would be great.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28You know, a couple more whale rides and you'd make a great Ant Nekton.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Oh, thanks.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32But I'll stick to being me.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36Plain old Alan Maximus Lobonof Vrstofski III.
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Lord of Frombork.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39That's your name?
0:19:39 > 0:19:40See you later, Jeffrey.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Be good. Wow.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Look at that smile.
0:19:44 > 0:19:45I know, it's dazzling, right?
0:19:45 > 0:19:47So charismatic.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54Have faith in the fish!
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Have faith in the fish.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Ant, look.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19So, you still think taking care of kids is easy?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21You are so lucky you've got us.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24We must make your job so simple.
0:20:26 > 0:20:27BOTH: What?
