11. Let me tell you the
story…
• AQUAMARINE is the story of Claire and Hailey
,two 13-year-old best friends who embark on
the adventure of their lives when they discover
a mermaid named Aquamarine in a swimming
pool.
• Meanwhile, Claire and Hailey are trying to
come to terms with Hailey’s impending
departure: She’s moving to Australia with her
marine biologist mother after this last weekend
of the summer.

12. Next…
• The beautiful, blue-haired, 18-year-old mermaid swam
away from home just before her arranged marriage, in
search of real love. If she can’t prove to her father that
love is real, she will be forced into marring an
unappealing merman but he’s only giving her three
days. Aqua enlists the help of Claire and Hailey .
• Aqua sets her sights on the Club’s lifeguard--
Raymond
• If Claire and Hailey can help Aquamarine attract
lifeguard ,and get him to say "I love you!" ,the
mermaid will grant the girls a wish. In that case
something magical happens, Hailey will be not
moving. Trouble is, time is limited. Worse, there's an
unscrupulous girl who also longs for the lifeguard.

13. Then…
• She fortunately sprouts legs when on dry land
during the daylight hours, If she gets wet,
however, or stays out past sunset, the tail
returns.
• Raymond is the object of the mermaid's
affection, a nice guy but not much of a prince.
When Aqua asks him if he loves her,he
responds, "No, but I think you're hot."
• The girls pool their knowledge and give
Aquamarine a crash course,to teach her how to
attract Raymond.

14. Afterwards…
• Of course, Aquamarine wins Raymond’s
heart.
• But before the happy ending there happens
a storm led by Aquamarine’s father, who
wants to let his daughter back to him.
• The girls literally pray for a miracle to keep
them together. But under such situation,
they change their pray to own their
friendship forever.

15. Happy ending…
• Aquamarine’s father believes there
exists real love. When the storm is
over, Raymond quickly swims to
Aquamarine…
