1While on a fishing trip, the Bears get attacked by a giant legendary fish.
2----
3!!Tropes:
4* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: The goldfish has grown to the size of a boat. Panda points out that goldfish generally only grow to be about two feet long.
5* TheCatfish: The captain has been after the giant goldfish for months. In the end, rather than catching it, the captain goes with it and becomes its friend.
6* ChekhovsGun: Early on, Panda makes a big deal out of his new cell phone case and how tough it is. It ends up saving his life.
7* CueCardPause: Ice Bear reads the instructions for the life raft to place it in the water... ''after'' pulling the inflation tab.
8* DeadHatShot: There's a shot of the plastic sword Ice Bear borrowed floating in the water, leaving Grizzly and Panda worried that their brother got eaten by the giant fish.
9* DressedToPlunder: Grizz spends much of the episode wearing a pirate hat and hook hand.
10* HandWave: When the Bears try to figure out what caused the goldfish to get so big, "Global warming" is the best Ice Bear could come up with.
11* LampshadeHanging: During his panicked attempt to call the authorities, Panda points out [[WeirdnessMagnet the tendency for weird things to happen to him and his brothers]] by yelling "Why does this always happen?!"
12* NotQuiteDead: Turns out the Bears' pet goldfish wasn't as dead as they thought.
13* ShoutOut: "Ice Bear feels shame. [[Music/CypressHill In the membrane.]]" (Doubles as WaxingLyrical.)
14* SplitScreenReaction: When the captain gets swallowed by the giant goldfish, there's a three-way reaction shot from the bears.
15* TakingTheBullet: The bears jump in front of the harpoon to protect the fish. It pierces through Panda's life jacket, [[PocketProtector but is stopped by his cell phone case]].
