[Rock music plays]

In an animation, Bo pushes levers and buttons on a controller in the Swop Shop Headquarters. He wears a green hat over his curly, short brown hair. Mojo, a blue vehicle, swaps from an airplane to a firetruck to a bulldozer with a crane on the back. They then swap to a truck with a wrecking ball and spin in a circle.

Singers sing, JET TOP, FIRE TOP, DOZER TOP, DIG IT UP. CRANE WITH A WRECKING BALL, YOU KNOW THEY'LL ANSWER ANY CALL. JUMPER TOP, MONSTER TOP, TURN IT ON, SWOP IT UP. MOJO AND BO TO THE SWOP SHOP, LET'S GO.

The headquarters garage door opens, and Bo drives Mojo to the road.

Singers sing, MOJO. SWOPTOP. SWOP YOUR TOP, AND LET'S GO. TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE IT ALL RIGHT.

On the road, Mojo swaps between different types of vehicles.

Singers sing, MOJO. SWOPTOP. SWOP YOUR TOP, AND LET'S GO. IT'S YOU AND ME; WE'RE OUTTA SIGHT.

Mojo zooms on the water. On the road, they drive with a ramp to a dump bed lowered, and scooter riders slide into the back of the truck. In a forest, Bo stands on a cherry picker and lifts a pig from a tree. Mojo swaps to a helicopter and a monster truck.

Singers sing, BOAT TOP, DUMPER TOP, RACE IT FAST, REV IT UP. CHERRY PICKER, OH-SO TALL. YOU KNOW THEY'LL ANSWER ANY CALL. CHOPPER TOP, MONSTER TOP, TURN IT ON, REV IT UP. MOJO AND BO TO THE RESCUE. LET'S GO! MOJO SWOPTOPS. SWOP YOUR TOP, AND LET'S GO.

[Cheerful music plays, soccer ball thumping, background chattering, engine whirring]

In the Swoppiton town square, Preston sits on the edge of the fountain and talks to Captain Gail. Jackson smiles as he carries Felix across the square, as two children chase a soccer ball. At his café, Fabio speaks to two patrons seated on the patio. Mojo and Bo drive on the street past the square.

Mojo says, MORNING, FABIO.

Fabio says, CIAO, MOJO!

Bo says, MORNING, JACKSON.

Jackson says, HELLO THERE, YOU TWO!

Mojo says, MORNING, SEAGULL.

[Seagull squawking, screwdriver cranking]

Dot sits in a coin-operated shark ride and bounces. Nori kneels in front of the ride and fixes the base with a screwdriver.

Dot says, FIX IT, FIX IT, FIX IT--

Bo says, MORNING, NORI!

Dot says, FIX IT!

Nori says, MORNING, YOU TWO!

Dot says, NORI! FIX IT, FIX IT, FIX IT, FIX IT.

[Nori laughing]

Nori says, IT'S ONLY BROKEN BECAUSE YOU RIDE IT NINE TIMES A DAY.

Dot says, BUT I'VE ONLY RIDDEN IT EIGHT TIMES TODAY. SO, FIX IT, FIX IT!

Nori says, OKAY, OKAY. ONE SMALL TAP AND...

[Tense music plays, boinging, whirring, banging, Dot exclaiming]

Nori hits her screwdriver with her hammer and a small panel crumples. The shark shakes.

Nori says, OH, NO. THAT DOESN'T LOOK RIGHT.

[Dramatic music plays]

The shark shakes, unplugs from the wall, and rolls forward.

Dot shouts, BREAK IT, BREAK IT, BREAK IT, BREAK IT!

[Nori exclaiming, gasping, alarm blaring, engine whirring, tires squealing, beeping, static crackling]

Nori holds her hand in front of her. In the Swop Shop Headquarters, Mojo drives into the garage, and Bo jumps out. Bo pushes a button, and Nori appears on the flickering screen, peering over a bush.

Bo says, MOJO SWOPTOPS, HELPING YOU IS WHAT WE—NORI?

Nori shouts, HELP! IT'S GONE HAYWIRE! SHARK…

[Static crackling]

Nori continues, HAS ESCAPED THE SUPERMARKET!

Bo says, DID SHE SAY A SHARK AT THE SUPERMARKET? THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT.

Mojo says, IT'S WHAT NORI SAID. MAYBE IT NEEDED TO BUY SOME TOOTHPASTE. THEY DO HAVE A LOT OF TEETH.

Bo says, ONE MUST HAVE WASHED UP ON SHORE.

[Bo gasping]

Bo says, IT'LL NEED OUR HELP!

[Beeping, chiming, whirring, upbeat music plays]

Bo pushes a button. An opening in the ceiling closes, and Bo picks up his controller. He and Mojo look at the computer screen.

Mojo says, THE BOAT TOP.

Bo says, NORMALLY, YES, BUT THIS SHARK'S NOT IN THE WATER.

[Whooshing]

The Chopper top appears on the screen.

Mojo says, CHOPPER TOP!

[Bo giggling]

Bo says, IT'S NOT A FLYING SHARK.

Mojo says, YOU'RE RIGHT.

[Mojo gasping]

Mojo says, IT'S A SHOPPING SHARK!

Bo says, HM, IF THE SHARK'S AT THE SUPERMARKET, IT'S GOING TO BE NEEDING SOME WATER.

Mojo says, AND WE'VE ONLY GOT ONE WATER TRANSPORT.

[Both gasping]

Both say, IT'S TIME TO SWAP THAT TOP!

[Rock music plays, tires screeching, siren beeping, whirring, clicking]

Bo pushes buttons on the controller, mechanical arms remove Mojo’s tires, and then close a panel concealing a fire extinguisher. Bo jumps into Mojo and fastens his seatbelt. The garage door opens, and Mojo drives out with a fire top.

Bo and Mojo say, FIRE TOP!

[Tires squealing, tires screeching, serious music plays]

Mojo drives around a corner. In Swoppiton, Mojo stops in front of the supermarket by the deserted town square.

Bo asks, WHERE IS EVERYBODY?

Nori jumps out of a bush beside the supermarket.

Nori shouts, SHARK!

[Bo screaming]

Bo says, DON'T CHOMP ME!

Nori shouts, THE SHARK! THE SHARK! IT'S GOT DOT!

[Dramatic music plays, Bo gasping]

Bo says, SO, THIS JUST TURNED INTO A SHARK CHASE AND A DOT RESCUE. IF ONLY WE HAD SOME KIND OF NET.

Nori says, AH, RIGHT, I GOTCHA.

[Banana squelching, bugle notes playing, bowling ball rumbling, pins clattering]

Nori takes a banana and a bugle out of her toolbox and throws them over her shoulder. She takes out a bowling ball and rolls it down the sidewalk.

Nori says, BANANA, BUGLE, BOWLING BALL.

[Net rattling]

Nori pulls a net out of her toolbox and gives it to Bo.

Nori says, AH-HA! IT WENT THAT-A-WAY!

[Bo gulping, tense music plays, Mojo squeaking]

Bo nervously says, LET'S GO, MOJO.

[Engine whirring]

Bo stands on top of the folded ladder, the water sprayer in front of him. Mojo drives slowly with narrowed eyes.

Mojo says, IF I WERE A SHARK AND I'D JUST BEEN SHOPPING, WHERE WOULD I GO?

[Dramatic music plays]

A blue shark fin rises behind a fence.

[Ominous music plays]

Bo says, WHEREVER IT IS, WE'RE READY FOR IT.

[Bo gasping]

Bo says, LOOK, MOJO. SHARK FIN!

[Mojo exclaiming, squeaking]

Mojo turns and faces the fence.

Mojo says, I'LL SPRAY IT WITH THE HOSE AND YOU CATCH IT WITH THE NET. GET READY.

[Whooshing, exciting music plays]

The fin moves closer behind the fence, and Bo swings the net over his head.

Mojo says, HERE IT COMES.

Tao walks out from behind the fence, carrying a surfboard with a blue fin-like tip.

Tao says, HI THERE, BO AND—

[Whooshing, rustling, water spraying, screaming]

Bo throws the net on Tao, and Mojo sprays him.

Bo and Mojo shout, SHARK!

Bo says, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP.

[Water stops spraying, Tao exclaiming, Tao coughing]

Tao asks, WHAT WAS THAT FOR, MO AND BO?

Bo says, OH, TAO, WE'RE SORRY. WE THOUGHT YOU WERE A SHARK.

Tao asks, YOU THOUGHT I WAS A WHAT?

In the distance, someone shouts, SHARK!

[Distant screaming]

Bo says, QUICK, MOJO! THAT CAME FROM OVER THERE!

[Tires squealing, whirring]

Mojo drives and Bo hops into the cab. Mojo reverses to Tao.

Bo says, OH, YEAH. SORRY, TAO. COULD I JUST GET MY, UH...

[Zooming, thumping, board wobbling]

Bo grabs the net, and Mojo drives. Tao spins, and his surfboard flies up and lands standing on the dirt road beside him.

Bo shouts, THANK YOU!

[Serious music plays, Jackson’s teeth chattering, motor sputtering]

On the café patio, Jackson hides behind an overturned table. Mojo slows down and drives onto the patio and squints at the overturned furniture.

Mojo says, HM, IT LOOKS LIKE THE SHARK HAS BEEN HERE, TOO.

[Bo grunting]

Bo jumps down to the ground.

Bo asks, IS EVERYONE OKAY?

[Jackson shuddering]

Fabio stands up behind the table and holds Felix under his arm.

Fabio says, IT WAS TERRIBLE! GREAT BIG GNASHING TEETH AND DOT WAS RIDING ON ITS BACK.

Mojo says, DOT WAS RIDING IT?

Jackson says, YEAH, AND IT PLAYED THIS AWFUL MUSIC.

Bo says, THE SHARK PLAYED MUSIC? WHAT DID IT SOUND LIKE?

[Distant carnival music playing, Bo and Jackson gasping]

Fabio says, QUITE A LOT LIKE THAT.

[Dramatic music plays, rattling, tires screeching, Dot laughing, shark rattling]

Dot rides the shark ride.

Mojo says, IT'S... IT'S...

Bo says, IT'S DOT ON A KIDDIE RIDE?

[Dot laughing, Fabio and Jackson shouting]

The shark rolls towards the patio. Jackson runs, and Fabio drops Felix and hides behind the table.

Jackson says, COME ON, FELIX!

[Dot laughing, dramatic music plays, Felix squealing, Dot cheering, Jackson shouting, glass breaking]

Felix follows Jackson, who runs around Mojo. Jackson hides behind the table with Fabio, and Dot knocks it away.

Dot cheers, WOO-HOO!

[Exciting music plays, whooshing, shark rattling, Dot laughing, Jackson and Felix shuddering, Fabio shouting, thumping, Jackson screaming, Dot cheering]

Bo throws the net on top of Mojo and jumps up. He swings the net over his head. Felix runs and sits on Fabio’s lap. Jackson grabs the café sandwich board, and the shark drives up it like a ramp. Bo throws the net.

Bo shouts, HIYA!

[Water spraying, grunting, Dot cheering, laughing, motor sputtering, the music stops]

The net covers Jackson, Fabio, and Felix. Dot bounces away on the shark.

Bo says, SORRY, FABIO. I'M NOT TOO GOOD WITH THIS NET.

Mojo says, WE GOTTA STOP THAT SHARK. IT'LL SHARK UP THE WHOLE TOWN LIKE IT SHARKED UP THIS CAFÉ!

[Tires squealing]

Mojo drives away.

Bo shouts, HOLD ON, DOT! WE'RE COMING!

[Tires squealing, ladder rattling]

Mojo stops and extends the rescue ladder back over the net.

Bo says, OH.

[Bo giggling]

Bo says, WE FORGOT THE, UM... THANK YOU!

[Whooshing, zooming, cup clinking, tire screeching]

Bo grabs the net, and Mojo drives away. Jackson catches a teacup on a saucer. Mojo drifts around a corner and stops.

Bo shouts, OKAY, SHARK, LET'S DO THIS.

[Tense music plays, tumbleweed rustling, engine whirring, Dot laughing, shark rattling]

A tumbleweed blows across a deserted street. Mojo drives down the street, and Dot rides the shark on a parallel street.

Mojo says, YOU KNOW WHAT, BO? I THINK IT GOT AWAY.

[Dot laughing, wheels screeching, shark rattling, tense music plays]

The shark rolls around a corner and follows Mojo.

Mojo says, IN FACT, I CAN SAFELY SAY THAT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY, DEFINITELY NO SHARK ANYWHERE NEAR—

[Bo, Mojo, and Dot screaming, tires screeching, engine whirring, exciting music plays]

The shark passes Mojo.

Bo says, QUICK, MOJO! AFTER HER! OKAY, RIDE'S OVER, DOT. YOU'VE GOTTA STOP THAT SHARK!

[Shark rattling]

Dot shouts, IT'S NOT ME! IT'S OUT OF CONTROL! I WANT TO GET OFF!

Mojo says, WHOA, IT'S A DOT IN DISTRESS.

Bo says, QUICK, GRAB MY HANDS!

[Whooshing]

Dot reaches for Bo, and he misses her hands.

Dot shouts, I CAN'T!

Mojo says, BO, THE NET!

[Whooshing]

Bo spins the net over his head.

Bo says, DON'T WORRY, DOT, WE'LL HAVE YOU OUT OF THERE FASTER THAN YOU CAN SAY—

[Bo screaming, engine whirring]

The net catches on something, and Bo is yanked backwards.

Mojo says, THAT'S RIGHT. FASTER THAN YOU CAN SAY, "AH!" WAIT, WHAT?

Mojo glances up and notices Bo is not on the ladder.

[Exciting music plays]

Mojo shouts, AH!

[Dot shouting, shark rattling, Mojo shouting, tires screeching, Mojo grunting, gasping]

Dot rides towards Mojo, Mojo swerves and spins to a stop at the end of the street. Dot rides in circles under Bo, who dangles from a streetlight on the net.

Bo says, MOJO, A LITTLE HELP?

[Dot screaming, net tearing]

Mojo says, YIKES!

[Tires screeching, net tearing, shark rattling]

The net lowers towards the shark, and Dot circles beneath Bo.

Bo says, UH. UH.

Dot shouts, SORRY ABOUT ALL THIS!

[Bo groaning, net tearing]

Mojo shouts, I'M COMING, BUDDY!

[Net tearing, shouting, tires screeching, shark rattling]

The net breaks, and Bo falls onto Mojo’s extended ladder. The shark rolls away.

Bo says, PHEW. THANKS FOR THE SAVE THERE, GOOD BUDDY.

Mojo says, BUT THE SHARK GOT AWAY AND NOW THE NET'S WRECKED.

[Thumping]

Bo jumps down to the ground and stands with his hands on his hips.

Bo says, MOJO, WE'RE GOING TO NEED A BIGGER TOP.

[Upbeat music plays, banging, whirring, clicking]

In the Swop Shop Headquarters, Bo pushes buttons on the controller. He jumps into Mojo’s cab and fastens his seatbelt. The garage door opens, and Mojo drives out with a crane top.

Mojo and Bo shout, CRANE TOP!

[The music stops]

Mojo says, ALSO KNOWN AS A GIANT SHARK-CATCHING FISHING ROD.

Bo says, YEAH! WE'RE-- WAIT, REALLY? BUT WHAT ARE WE GOING TO USE FOR BAIT?

[Whooshing, squeaking]

Later, Bo dangles from the crane grabber.

Bo says, I DON'T THINK I LIKE BEING SHARK BAIT.

[Mojo shushing]

Mojo says, BAIT DOESN'T TALK.

[Exciting music plays, shark rattling]

Dot rides the shark around the corner.

Mojo says, HERE IT COMES. READY, BO?

Bo says, NO, YES, SORT OF. OH! STEADY.

[Shark rattling]

Dot rides towards Bo.

Dot says, I CAN'T STOP!

Bo says, STEADY.

Dot says, I CAN'T STOP!

Bo says, NOW, MOJO, NOW!

Mojo says, OKAY!

[Whirring, shouting, thumping, both laughing, thumping, exciting music continues]

Mojo swings the crane, and Bo grabs Dot. They jump down to the ground.

Dot says, SHARKY!

Dot points at the shark ride rolling on a dock towards the lake.

Bo says, WE HAVE TO STOP IT BEFORE IT FALLS IN THE WATER.

[Tires screeching]

Bo jumps into Mojo’s cab.

Mojo says, LET'S GO FISHING!

[Clicking, whooshing]

On the dock, Mojo narrows their eyes and follows the shark. Bo pushes levers and the crane grabber swings.

Bo says, HA!

[Railing smashing, clinking, grunting, line whirring, tires screeching, Bo and Dot cheering]

The shark ride rolls through the railing at the end of the dock and falls towards the water. The crane grabs the shark ride, and Bo pulls a lever. Mojo stops at the end of the dock, and the crane lifts the shark ride.

Mojo says, LOOKS LIKE I CAUGHT A BIG ONE.

[Screwdriver cranking, soft music plays, Nori grunting]

In front of the supermarket, Nori turns the screwdriver on a panel at the base of the shark ride. She stands, tosses her screwdriver up, and catches it.

Nori says, YEP, I'M DONE. THAT SHOULD DO IT. ALL READY FOR YOU NOW, DOT, MY LOVE.

[Upbeat music plays, shark boinging]

Dot smiles and climbs up on the shark ride.

Mojo says, YEAH, BUT AFTER TODAY, WHO'D EVER WANT TO RIDE THAT SHARK AGAIN?

[Carnival music playing, shark rattling, Nori screaming]

Dot starts the ride, and Nori jumps away.

Dot says, ME!

[Everyone laughing, exclaiming]

Mojo says, DOT!

[Upbeat music plays]

Singers sing, MOJO. SWOPTOPS. MOJO. SWOPTOPS. MOJO. SWOPTOPS.
