It's not that Flounder's purposely messy, it's just that he gets excited at the next fun thing and forgets to put his things away properly. His sister Sandy has had enough of it and goes to Ariel, who decides teach Flounder a little lesson.

All Ariel wants to do is paint a painting of their island, but all her friends have their two cents on how it "should" be done. Tired of everyone's advice, she suggests a painting party, where everyone gets to paint what they want, and King Triton decides whose is the best.

It can be tough with siblings. Sandy feels a little down because her twin brother Flounder is able to do some swimming tricks that she can't. Sandy then realizes that if she pretends to be sick, everyone will pay more attention to her, but there's a flaw in that plan.

Scuttle's nap gets disrupted by bees, and he decides to take matters into his own hands without fully thinking of the consequences. And then Ursula herself gets involved, because the sea witch likes honey, who knew?

It's one of those the-grass-is-greener-on-the-other-side stories, where Sebastian and Scaly each believe that the other has the easier life and argue about it. They decided to switch responsibilities for the day, and they both learn some important lessons about appreciating each other.

Ariel and Scuttle get into a bit of a tiff when Scuttle accidentally ruins a sandcastle that Ariel had been making. Ariel thinks Scuttle did it on purpose, while Scuttle thinks it's Ariel's fault for building it on the spot where Scuttle usually makes his landing, and the pair refuse to talk civilly to each other. It's up to the rest of their friends to interfere and sets things right.

Ariel is delighted to get a four-leaf-clover from Scuttle, which she believes is responsible for the streak of good luck that she has soon afterward. So certain is Ariel in the power of the clover that Ursula decides she has to have it for herself, in order to claim that good luck.

Sometimes there are bad days where it seems nothing can go right. Sebastian has one of those bad days, in which no matter what his friends do to cheer him up, it just seems to backfire and make things worse.
