Plot[]

The Little Einsteins played with the sand at the Seashore beach (The Shore at Bas-Butin, Honfleur) and Leo greeting while the other three are building a sand castle. As Leo greets with the rest of the team, Quincy asks that where did Rocket go and Annie saw that Rocket is in the ocean and June senses that he is playing with someone in the water and Leo told that Rocket is playing with the Little Whale. Quincy explains that Rocket made a friend with a whale and June told that the whale is a little Humpback Whale, and while Rocket plays with the Little Whale, Annie sings to the Horn Concerto Number 2 in E flat major. Then the Little Einsteins spot a whole pod with whale because the Little Whale has a lot of family, But Little Whale still wants to keep playing with Rocket, but his mom says that it's time to go, and the Little Einsteins have to go, because it's snack time. And soon, Little Whale left and head back to his family while Leo told that Rocket that it time to go and so, Rocket picks up the team and head back to the Rocket Room.

Meanwhile, at the Rocket Room, the Little Einsteins are having a snack when Rocket feels sad about missing his friend, Little Whale and Leo asks Rocket about missing Little Whale and Rocket replies yes to Leo. Annie agrees about finding Little Whale. So Leo put out his baton and told everyone that they’ve got a mission about finding little whale so that he and Rocket can be reunited and play together again. So they all head inside Rocket, buckle their seatbelts, do the pat sequence, and blast off.

The Little Einsteins are on the way to the ocean to find the Little Whale and Rocket transforms into a submarine and dives to the ocean. Once underwater, Rocket use his metronome on the screen to tell to go accelerando and ritardando as they have entered the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and June tells that Little Whale is hiding behind the anemone, but he is not hiding behind the anemone. Then Quincy has an idea, that he practices his French horn to call his Little Whale, so Quincy puts out his speaker to play Horn Concerto Number 2 in E-Flat Major to call out Little Whale which was sound like a French Horn, but it sound like a clarinet which is the sea turtle and Annie ask the sea turtle that he saw Little Whale today and Quincy replied that the sea turtle saw Little Whale and telling which way to go.

While the Little Einsteins are on their way underwater to find Little Whale, June told that Rocket's really excited about playing with Little Whale and Leo told that Rocket is going fast, but Quincy told everyone that Rocket has to go faster, because a squid is chasing the Little Einsteins! So they have to go accelerando and Rocket have to swim faster but Quincy said that it wasn't fast enough because a squid is still chasing the Little Einsteins. So Leo told everyone to go accelerando so Rocket swim faster and faster to get away from the squid. After the Little Einsteins are being chased by the squid, the Little Einsteins are entering a school of puffer fish and one of the puffer fishes puff up and stick out the spikes and Rocket is still swimming fast, so the Little Einsteins have to go Ritardando to avoid the scratch. After Rocket being chased by a squid and avoid the porcupines of the puffer fishes, the Little Einsteins are being chased by a shark, so they have to go accelerando to get away from the shark that lead all the way to the orchestra ocean and Leo thank for saying accelerando for being chased by a squid and a shark and Ritardando to avoid a scratch from a school of puffer fish.

After the Little Einsteins are being chased from the shark, Leo uses his periscope to look over the ocean to see that the shark chased the Little Einsteins all the way to the orchestra ocean and Leo tells that one of the instruments can help find Little Whale, so Quincy plays his French Horn to call the French Horn. Then Rocket follows the French Horn to the underwater paths and once they reached at the three pathed underwater path, Quincy play his French horn to find the French horn and everyone one listen carefully to the French horn which is go down the second path while the first path sounds like a flute and the third path is a school of scorpion fish. And then the Little Einsteins have to listen carefully to the French horn down the two pathed underwater path and the French Horn must've gone down the first path of the two pathed underwater path while the second path which is the violin path, that contains more scorpion fish so the Little Einsteins have to go to the first path of the underwater path.

Rocket feel excited about Little Whale that Rocket swim around and around and Quincy says that Rocket is excited about finding his friend and play his French horn to call to his friend, but they don't hear Little Whale because he is still far away, so they have to play louder. So Rocket got a plan that he found some conch shells, retrieve those conch shells with his Rocket Raiser and Quincy sees about the conch shell and play to the beat of the Horn Concerto Number 2 in E flat major and the Little Einsteins are using their conch shells while Quincy play his French Horn to call Little Whale. Soon, Little Whale hears Rocket and heads to the Little Einsteins, and soon Rocket and Little Whale are back together! Mission completion!
