Shark Tale (2004)
In the Southside Reef, a lowly bluestreak cleaner wrasse named Oscar fantasizes about being rich and famous. Soon after arriving for work at the Whale Wash, he is called to his boss’s office, a pufferfish named Sykes, to discuss the money he owes and that repayment is due the next day. Oscar remembers being humiliated as a child because his father was a tongue scrubber, so his angelfish best friend, Angie, offers him a shiny pink pearl that was a gift from her grandmother to pawn and pay his debt. Meanwhile, a gang of criminally-inclined sharks, with associates such as orcas, swordfish and octopuses, has a problem with Lenny, a vegetarian shark. His crime lord father, Don Edward Lino, orders his violent eldest son, Frankie, to mentor his brother in the family business.
Oscar brings the money to the race track to meet Sykes, but hears that the race is rigged and bets it all on a seahorse named “Lucky Day.” A lionfish named Lola sees this and flagrantly seduces an excited Oscar. Sykes is annoyed that Oscar bet the money, but he hopes that Oscar might win. When the race starts, Lucky Day’s door does not open, the race was rigged against the seahorse, but Lucky Day breaks though the door and eventually takes the lead, only to trip and lose short of the finish line. Sykes loses his temper, orders his two Jamaican jellyfish henchmen, Ernie and Bernie to deal with Oscar. Frankie sees Oscar and urges Lenny to eat him, but Lenny instead frees Oscar and tells him to escape. Furious and fed up with his brother’s tenderness, Frankie charges at Oscar, but suddenly an anchor from above the surface falls on his neck, killing him. Devastated and blaming himself for his brother’s death, Lenny leaves. As there were no other witnesses and Oscar was seen near the body, everyone in the reef comes to believe that he killed Frankie, an opportunity that Oscar decides to exploit for fame.
