Plot[]
On a hot summer day in Pig City, all the pigs are enjoying the day and some pigs are having fun with water. A Minion Pig is seen relaxing in a kiddy pool holding a glass of juice when suddenly a shark fin shows up in the pool, causing the pig to become scared and jump off the pool. The shark fin then turned out to be a pig.
The two pigs then had an idea when they saw Foreman Pig ready to jump into the pool in front of his house. As soon as Foreman Pig was about to jump, he noticed two shark fins, chasing him in various directions. Now scared, he jumped off and landed in a barrel. The Shark Pigs laughed at their prank, but as they passed the barrel the Foreman Pig was stuck in, he learned it was them that did the prank, causing him to plan his revenge on them.
The two pigs go to the public pool in the city, where Fat Piglet dives into the water, causing a large splash that knocks most of the pigs out of the water. Corporal Pig was coaching some Minion Pigs on practicing a synchronized swimming routine, with the routine ending with the pigs standing in an upside-down pyramid, when suddenly the shark fins show up, scaring everyone and causing all the pigs from the pool to run out of it. Now with the pool abandoned, the Shark Pigs laugh again.
Noticing the Shark Pigs while hiding inside a booth, Foreman Pig opens a box. The pigs from the pool return with a humorous amount of weapons when Foreman Pig jumps out dressed as a shark. However, that causes everyone to assume he pulled the prank, causing them to angrily chase him around the pool. Meanwhile, the shark pigs are relaxing with some ice cream.
