The sea is raging near the shore. Fishes are merrily circling in the water. Meanwhile, numerous shells were sleeping peacefully at the bottom. Suddenly a ray of sunlight comes through the sea. One shell woke up and, seeing a glowing (as it seemed to her) fish, was very surprised by this. The fish explains that this is the reflection of the sun on its scales. Intrigued, the shell asks the fish to bring her some sun, but fish says that this is impossible.
