Plot – Life on the Great Barrier Reef is full of dangers when you're a little clownfish and your dad is full of fears. The protagonists of this incredible story are Nemo and his father Marlin, who will do anything to protect him. When it is time for Nemo to leave his safe haven of the anemone sea for his first day of school, Marlin anxiously walks him to school supervising with anguish every move. When Nemo challenges his father and swims beyond the imposing "void" of the barrier to snoop around a boat, he is suddenly captured by a diver while Marlin helplessly witnesses.

“- Crush: Okay. Squirt here will now give you a rundown of proper exiting technique.
- Squirt: Good afternoon. We're gonna have a great jump today. Okay, first crank a hard cutback as you hit the wall. There's a screaming bottom curve, so watch out! Remember: rip it, roll it, and punch it.

- Marlin: Stop that! It's half-empty!”“- Marlin: I can't afford any more delays and you're one of those fish that causes delays. Sometimes it's a good thing. There's a whole group of fish. They're delay fish.
- Dory: You mean... You mean you don't like me?
- Marlin: No, of course I like you. It's because I like you I don't want to be with you. It's a complicated emotion.”“I look at you, and I... and I'm home.”
“Oh, it's awesome, Jellyman. The little dudes are just eggs, we leave 'em on a beach to hatch, and then, coo-coo-cachoo, they find their way back to the big ol' blue.”

- Nemo: It's ok, it's ok. I'm looking for somebody too. Hey, we can look together.”“See this tentacle? It's actually shorter than all my other tentacles, but you can't really tell, especially when I twirl them like this.”
