Show: 20,000 Books Under the Sea, ep. 4

THE ADVENTURE FINALE!

Brook Mark and Cliff Hanger are closer than ever to discovering the Lost Library of Atlantis and retrieving the only book that will stop Shelldon the Tale Snail but time is running out! They manage to travel to the deepest part of the ocean and collect fascinating facts that will help them solve the final clue. Unfortunately, they still need one more answer before they can get to Atlantis. Luckily, Hamish, the Peacock Mantis Shrimp, offers help in the form of a fishy fairytale titled “Finderella”. Whew! Brook and Cliff figure out the clue and head to the Lost Library where Marina Blue is waiting with the book. Will there be enough time for them to return to the lighthouse or is this THE END for our intrepid heroes?
