She meets two small crabs, who inform her that all blue tangs, like herself, are tagged and taken to quarantine to be shipped to their own exhibit in Cleveland. Finally, when she reaches her old home, she remembers how she became separated from them: while finding a purple shell (her mom's favorite) to cheer her up, she was sucked into the undertow and out of a pipe into the open ocean. Hank and Dory make their way through the Aquarium in a push pram, ending up in a touching tank, where Hank scares off the children poking them by releasing ink, and they find the Open Ocean Exhibit.ĭory gives her tag to Hank and heads into the exhibit, following a trail of shells left by her parents when she was a child to her old home, remembering various little snippets of their lives along the way. She takes Marlin and Nemo into the institute via a green bucket that Fluke and Rudder obtain from Gerald in exchange for (very temporary!) access to their rock. After an interruption from Gerald, another sea lion who covets the rock, the sea lions introduce the clownfish to Becky, a black loon. Nemo wants to ask for directions, but Marlin tells him that they eat fish. In his sadness, he wakes up Fluke and Rudder, two sea lions napping. Meanwhile, Marlin feels guilty about how he spoke to Dory. Destiny and a beluga whale named Bailey, who believes he cannot use his echolocation, help her find the exhibit by traveling through the pipes of the building. He will help her find her family in exchange for the tag.Īs they move through the Marine Life Institute, Dory remembers more and more she meets a whale shark named Destiny, who reminds her that they used to be friends and that she is from the Open Ocean exhibit.
Noticing the tag, he makes a deal with Dory: Hank wants to go to the Cleveland aquarium. Here Dory meets Hank, an ill-tempered, seven-legged octopus (or septopus). A plastic tag is attached to her fin which reads "Transfer," marking her as a specimen due to be shipped to an aquarium in Cleveland. Heartbroken, Dory wanders to the surface and is captured by some rescuers from the Marine Life Institute. Angry, Marlin blames her for nearly endangering Nemo and claims that "forgetting things" is all she is good at. Getting stuck in plastic six-pack rings, Dory pulls Marlin and Nemo to safety. As they try to escape, Nemo is captured and nearly killed.
Her excitement, however, awakens a giant squid. She wants Marlin to help her, and after being reminded of what happened to Nemo, he joins in.Īfter taking the California Current, with the help of an old friend, Crush, Dory remembers that her parents' names are Jenny and Charlie. While unconscious, Nemo hears her mention "the Jewel of Morro Bay, California," and these magic words remind Dory that she is still looking for her family. Dory is excited, but when the class mentions an "undertow," she wanders off and gets caught in the migration. Then, one day, Dory joins Nemo on a class field trip: a stingray migration. Running into him, she promises to help him find something himself: his kidnapped son, Nemo, thus the events of Finding Nemo take place.Ī year later, Dory now rests in a little cave next to Marlin's anemone and constantly sleep swims in the middle of the night, much to the dismay of Marlin. She then suddenly sees a white boat and a frantic clownfish named Marlin. Years pass, but she cannot find anyone who can help, and as she grows older, she even forgets who she is looking for.
Later, young Dory has been separated from her parents and is trying to find them. While she finds this as a weakness, her parents constantly tell her that it is all right, but they warn her to stay away from the undertow. Dory is a very young blue tang who suffers from short-term memory loss.
