In Deep Water

Starring: Russell

Featuring: Lumpy, Giggles, Cuddles, Petunia, Mime, The Mole and Cro-Marmot

Russell proudly polishes his new ship as five people stand by, ready to set sail. When he announces that it is open, they all pour in. Russell randomly assigns each member with a job. Mole is the lookout, Mime is the emergency voice, Cro-Marmot is the security, and Petunia is the ship cleaner. (Hey, 1 out of 4 isn't bad) Cuddles and Giggles, with no jobs given, decide to take out some sunbeds and lie in the sun. Russell, before setting off, searches for Lumpy, who he also invited to sail with him. After a bit of searching, Russell decides to set off without him.

Meanwhile Lumpy looks confusedly at an invitation, unable to figure out where you needs to go. Finally, in the distance, he notices a tiny pedalo with one seat, and figures that it must be the boat from the invitation, and steps in it, desperately trying to squeeze himself into the tiny thing. When he gets in, he points forward confidently, begins pedalling and he starts travelling at an extremely slow pace, as he still points forward awkwardly.

The huge ship finally sets off, and Russell could not be prouder. He checks that every animal is doing the jobs they are given, and, as captain, takes the wheel. An unspecified amount of time later, The Mole is shown directing him. As they are about to pass a large iceberg with ease, The Mole aimlessly points towards it, causing Russell to turn, about to crash into it. Mime notices this and tries to warn The Mole. However, with The Mole on a high tower out of Mime's reach, Mime has no way to signal danger. He slaps Cuddles awake from his sleep, and once Cuddles notices, he screams. This catches Russell's attention, who also notices the iceberg, and frantically tries to turn the boat sharply, and they barely miss the deadly obstacle.

Meanwhile, Lumpy is shown exhausted, completely out of breath. He pants uncontrollably and lies back on his seat with no energy left to pedal his boat. There is then a bigger view given, showing that Lumpy has only travelled a few mere feet from where he started off.

Mime, relieved by his safety, wipes the sweat off his head. Unfortunately, because such a sharp turn occurred, the lookout tower that The Mole is standing on turns and snaps. It falls onto Mime, which isn't enough to kill him, but is enough to knock him to the edge of the boat, as he holds onto the rails, seconds away from falling into the aggressive sea. Once The Mole gets up from his fall, Mime tries to signal to Mole that he needs help, but has no way. The Mole then, aware that the lookout tower is broken, attempts to find another job to do. He mistakes Mime's antler for the end of a broom, pulls it off of Mime's head and starts sweep the floor with it. Mime, now in pain, lets go of the rails causing him to fail into the sea. The harsh waves then smack him into the previously shown iceberg, causing his head to be smashed as the rest of his body sinks below the ocean.

Russell soon notices the broken lookout tower, and orders Cuddles and Giggles to sort it out. Cuddles wakes Giggles up and they reluctantly do as ordered. As they start to pick up the heavy tower, Petunia appears from around the corner. She notices The Mole getting blood over the deck with Mime's antler and starts hyperventilating. She pushes Mole out of the way, throws Mime's antler into the sea and starts wiping up the blood. The Mole, now unsure of what to do, walks away and accidentally bumps into Giggles, causing her to drop the pillar, crushing her, killing her.

Russell takes another break from steering to find Cuddles shouting at The Mole, and breaks up the argument. When Petunia notices Giggles' dead corpse under the pillar, she goes crazy, and runs to the other side of the boat while screaming. She then accidentally bumps into Cro-Marmot, causing her face to stick to him. She pulls with all her force trying to get off, and eventually, she does, which relieves her. However, she then slips backwards from pulling away so hard, so she falls off the side of the boat. When she lands in the water, she desperately swims back to the ship, the wind pushing her back. When the wind instantly changes direction, her body quickly slams into the bottom of the boat, and she breaks through the wall. She then finds herself climbing into an empty basement with no way back up. The ship then begins to leak from the hole she created, which causes her to panic.

Above, the ship begins to shake and get deeper into the sea, causing Cro-Marmot to slide back and forth down the deck. At first the animals are confused, until Russell realises that they are sinking. The Mole, still confused, gets knocked off the ship when Cro-Marmot slides into him, and falls underwater. He eventually appears back up, avoiding drowning. Suddenly, a shark appears and chomps Mole's head off, causing the water around it to be stained with blood. Russell and Cuddles, watching from the bridge, scream in horror. The boat, during this, is sinking further and further, as they become inches from the water.

Under this chaos, Petunia's dead drowned body floats in the flooded basement. Above, amidst the chaos, Cuddles is running around, screaming while Russell tries to think of how to escape the situation. Out of nowhere, Cro-Marmot comes sliding into Cuddles, as the rabbit and the frozen marmot go flying into the ocean. Cuddles, too panicked from the situation, finds himself unable to swim back up to the surface, while Cro-Marmot sinks below along with him. They both sink down to an underwater volcano. Cuddles covers his eyes, anxiously preparing to burn to death. Soon after, he notices the heat has stopped, and Cro-Marmot has blocked the Volcano. Cuddles is relieved for mere seconds before he sees that the pressure in the volcano rapidly increases, until Cro-Marmot bursts into countless pieces, and the volcano lets out a huge eruption, which kills Cuddles.

Russell, now the only one left on the ship, is caught by the huge eruption, blasting him into the water. Screaming, he flails around until he lands safely in the water, thankful that he is alive. He begins to try to swim back to shore, but his tail gets stuck in the turbine of a pedalo as it spins, dragging him into it, making blood splatter all over. It is then revealed that the one driving the pedalo is Lumpy, who is still exhausted from pedalling, unaware that he has just killed Russell. He then stops pedalling, panting tiredly. The lookout tower from Russell's ship the drops down once more, crushing Lumpy's skull and smashing the pedalo.
