Trollex was devastated.

TBDB said, "Trollex...it's ok...We'll figure this out."

But, Trollex said, "No...I can't."

TBDB sadly asked, "What?"

Trollex replied, "I've ruined everything."

The ocean looked at him.

Trollex sadly asked, "Why did you bring me here?"

Trollex looked at the heart and said, "I'm not the right one."

He held it out to the ocean.

TBDB asked, "What are you doing?"

Trollex said, "You have to choose someone else."

The ocean just looked at him.

TBDB quietly said, "No."

Trollex said again, "Choose someone else."

Trollex teared up, "Please."

With a little hesitation, the ocean finally took the heart out of Trollex's hand and sunk it to the bottom.

TBDB sadly asked, "So...what do we do now?"

Trollex fell to his fins and started crying.

TBDB and even Echo tried to comfort him, but to no avail.

Just then, something glowing appeared in the water.

It was a sea turtle.

It swam around Echo for a while, with Trollex and TBDB looking at it.

It then disappeared.

"You're a long ways past the reef."

Trollex looked up and saw...

"Grandpa?"

Current's spirit was right in front of him.

He smiled and said, "Guess I chose the right pendant."

"Grandpa!"

Trollex immediately swam into his grandfather's arms and cried tears of joy.

He then sadly said, "I tried, Grandpa...I couldn't do it."

Current replied, "It's not your fault. I never should've put so much on your shoulders. If you are ready to go home, I will be right here with you."

Trollex prepared Echo to go home.

But, right before he commanded him to do so, he stopped.

Current asked, "Why do you hesitate?"

Trollex said, "I don't know."
