Ripples, Polly and Jason, after having picked up two doubloons found in a safe, offer to help several oysters find their pearls, mysteriously gone missing at night. During their search they come across a group of small craters that give off strong puffs of air. The next morning Ripples discovers just how the pearls went missing: a fish, who lives above the oysters, had swept the entrance to his den, the dust had fallen on one of the oysters who, sneezing in her sleep, had spat out the pearl; this then ended up on one of the craters and was then pushed outside the water by a puff of air, finally ending up in a crabs’ den on a reef. The three friends visit the reef, where mother crab tells them that her kids have taken away the pearl and are out playing at making sculptures on a little island. Thanks to Icarus, Ripples and the others fly to the island and see the young crabs using the precious spheres as eyes for a sculpture. They offer the doubloons they had previously found in exchange for the pearls, which can be returned to the oysters.
