Plot
Molly begins by introducing herself to the audience and tries to say, "It's time for Bubble Guppies!" But Gil interrupts her by flying like an airplane above her! When he lands, they say it together.
Gil and Deema are on their way to school when they notice an airport in the distance. They go over to it and meet one of the pilots working there. They then begin to learn why airports are so loud; usually, it's because of the plane engines and the multiple people who work on or use the planes. Upon reaching school, Gil and Deema share what they've just learned, and this makes everyone begin to wonder about planes.
They then begin to sing the pop song "We're Gonna Fly"
Nonny wants to take his friends, a couple of shrimps, to the airport for an airplane trip. Goby is the one running this airport. But they soon find a problem when the plane is not ready for takeoff and when they manage to fix it and the lobsters go on their trip, Mr. Grouper announces it's time for Lunch!
Molly and Gil are sitting on their plane seats as Gil plays with his own. Making it go up and down multiple times as Molly tries to tell him to stop. But when the seat gets stuck in the down position, Gil gets squished but he says “I’m okay!”.
In class, Goby and Deema invite both Molly and Gil to board their airplane. Piloted by Goby, the pirate-pilot! This makes the guppies begin to wonder what exactly is inside an airplane and what makes it run and work properly. Soon the dance Hear That Engine Roar! plays and afterwards, Mr. Grouper tells the Guppies its time
Ejecting passenger!
The Guppies went to the airport to look at planes and they look over everything at the airport. But they didn't know that they too would get to actually ride the plane! Everyone sings as they get on board and Gil and Deema get to personally speak with the pilot they met earlier, and he gives the guppies their golden wings! The episode ends as they resume singing and the plane flies over the school and into the sky...
Molly is expressing how much she had fun with the plane as Gil comes over and shows her some batons he found. She asks him about them and Gil begins to wave the lighting batons around. Feeling horrified, Molly tries to warn Gil that she wouldn't do that, until he sees a plane chasing him!
Goofs
- During the airplane scene, Nonny apparently changes seats in certain shots. All throughout the reprise of "Get on a Plane!", Nonny sits in different seats, like sitting next to Mr. Grouper or not. In fact, during that same sequence, every guppy switch seats throughout the song.
- In the second Think About It skit, Deema's left eye was missing two eyelashes.
- In the Outside song, just before the guppies go outside, Goby's eyes were moving weirdly.
- During the Lunchtime song, Nonny was not wearing an airport uniform, then when the scene shows an airplane when Nonny, Deema, and Oona discuss what they are having for lunch, he is now wearing a uniform.
