''LINCOLN: Oh yeah? You think that's funny. Well, I'll bet I can make a larger splash than that one!''

LORI: (smirks) Prove it.

''LINCOLN: (noticing some large rocks nearby) Alrighty. I will.''

''He then swam over to the rocks and climbed to the top of one of them. He walked over to the edge, ready to leap into the water.''

LINCOLN: And here we go!

But before Lincoln could jump, he heard the sound of the lifeguard blowing his whistle.

LIFEGUARD: (from a distance) No jumping from the rocks!

''LINCOLN: Dang it. Lincoln was just about to climb back down, but then he noticed something. He squatted down to get a closer look.''

''LINCOLN: Huh. This is pretty interesting. (waves to the girls) Hey guys! Come over here! You gotta check this out!''

''The girls approached and climbed onto the rock to see what Lincoln was talking about. It was a couple of tide pools near the water. TERI: What are those?''

LORI: I think they’re called tide pools.

CAROL: They’re kinda pretty actually.

DANA: Hey, is that a starfish?

LINCOLN: Well, according to Lisa, the real name is "sea star," but what's the difference?

DANA: (smiles) Well, whatever the name is, I think it's a pretty neat creature.

She dipped her hand into one of the tidepools and stroked her finger along the back of the pink-skinned sea star.

''DANA: Ooh! Bit rough though.''

''CAROL: Oh! (points at something else) And what about those things next to it?''

Lincoln turned in the direction at which she was pointing and looked closely at a small bunch of rounded objects clustered together.

LINCOLN: Hmmm… too soft-looking to be barnacles… I think those are tide pool sponges.

''LORI: Alright, Mr. Marine Biology Expert. Where exactly have you been learning all this stuff?''

''LINCOLN: Eh. Lisa taught me a few things when she was helping me with an assignment about ocean life.''

''CAROL: Huh. Sponges living next to starfishes…. Why does that seem familiar?....''

Lincoln: Wow, the only thing that would make it more familiar was if a some suids lived in between them.
