"[repeated line; in a nightmare, being chased by a shark] I am gonna die!"

"I'd rather not talk about myself, okay? But Oscar? He's a real piece of work! I'm out in the wastelands with my br... Uh, with another shark, and we come across Oscar all tied up in the middle of nowhere. Me, I'm not fond of fish, but this other shark decides to eat him. The results, were not pleasant for any of us."

"I was in the kelp forest, avoiding the goon squads my fa, ah, Don Lino had out looking for his son when Oscar showed up. It was pretty clear he was hiding out from them too. Now, I figured he owed me for some trouble I got him out of earlier, so I asked him to help me hide out for a while."

"Yeah, Oscar was into me for five G's. As usual he's got some crazy scheme for making good on it too. Claimed he had an inside track on a sure thing at the races. Now, be the warm, sensitive individual I am. I graciously gave him 24 hours on the note."

"I don't even know why I keep those two around! After Oscar hit it big time, all Ernie and Bernie wanted to do was sit around and play that new Sharkslayer video game. There's two permanent Jellyfish shaped dents in the sectional sofa right in front of the big plasma screen. And I'll betcha, they're probably still there right now."

"All these reporters start showing up at the Whale Wash, and then I hear everyone asking where Oscar is. I figure the worst has happened, so I'm pretty relieved when Oscar shows up with Ernie and Bernie. Turns out that everyone thinks Oscar's killed some shark out of the wastelands. Hah! I think I'd believe that Sykes adopted Oscar as his long lost son before I'd believe that! Although, the two were looking pretty chummy at that point."

"Sometimes I think he's lost his mind. He sneaks into the Whale Wash storage and finds out I've busted him and his shark friend. Then he pulls a classic Oscar: "All right, look. We're gonna paint you all bloody, right? Just a mess, right? Then you gonna swim out and meet the sharks before they get here." The worst part is that Lenny actually encourages him... Oh! You won't believe what they did next."

"Oscar? Yeah, I know him. Just goes to show you that even a little fish can make a splash in a big pond, under the right circumstances. In his case, he's lucky he didn't end up as an hors d'oeuvre at a shark banquet."

"Sure, I'll admit, I went a little overboard. But he's my son! My own flesh and blood! How could he make me lose face like that in front of the other shark families? And that Oscar, all I remember is hearing the other Dons laughing, and then seeing red. Everything after that is a blur until the Whale Wash."

"I met Oscar at the Seahorse Track. He can be quite charming, but I could see him for the fraud he was. Tried to play himself off as a big shot when he was really just a small fry. I heard later his big "tip" on the race was a big "dud" and he made the wrong fish angry. Word was he'd been sent out to the wastelands to "sleep wit da fishes" if you know what I mean."

"Oscar threw this huge bash; everyone who was anyone was there. That plain girl, Andy or whatever her name is, was clumsily trying to get Oscar to notice her. He was mine! I was good for Oscar, and I looked good with Oscar. I was so proud when that fish came in yelling about a shark on the reef and my brave Oscar went off alone to take care of it."

"Oscar got what was coming to him. Can you believe that he would snub me for that bland Angie girl? I figured that turning her into the sharks was doing him a favor. It's too bad that they arranged that sit down with the five families to work things out, or things might have turned out a little more interesting."
