A mermaid swims with four dolphin companions, hiding from a fishing boat, but the youngest, Emerald, surfaces anyway and is netted; the fishermen say a reward has been offered for a gemstone dolphin. The mermaid follows the boat. Ken is interning at a marine biology institute for the summer, and he has rented a cabin on the beach for Barbie, her sisters Skipper, Stacie, and Chelsea, and their puppies. Skipper hopes to win a photo blog contest. Diving with Ken, Barbie and Skipper see a strange large animal swim toward the institute and chase it in the boat. Emerald is held in a cove there, and the director, Marlo, says a veterinarian must examine him before he can go free. Barbie meets a stranger, Isla, at the gate, who cannot open it.
