Bob, host of Underwater World with Bob, is furious with Shark, not only because Shark ate him (admittedly bad manners), but because Shark will not even admit what he did; the ocean may not be big enough for both of them--unless Shark faces up to his bad behavior, stops sulking (and eating the animals on the program, and maybe barfing up his stomach) and apologizes. Bob, a jellyfish, interviews, and films a "misunderstood shark" to understand the creature better. But the shark keeps veering from the script when his instincts take over. Humor comes at the shark's explanations. He's not, for example, trying to eat a fish, just "showing him my new teeth."
