When he arrives, Mercutio mocks him as well. Back on the beach, Mercutio is telling many jokes, which leads to him making insulting jokes against the Capulets, and the Prince is headed in that direction. A fish finds them a lovely couple, but warns them that they will be in big trouble if the Prince finds out. However, even the other sea and land animals strongly oppose their being together. Romeo and Juliet are wed that morning and traverse the sea in their happiness. After some thought, the friar believes their marriage will end the feud between their families, and agrees. Romeo begs Friar Lawrence, a sea otter, to wed them. Romeo promises Juliet that they shall marry the next morning, and she will not have to marry the Prince. Later that evening, the play's balcony scene is recreated on a cliff on the beach where a tree grows. Romeo and his friends manage to wreak havoc, and are revealed to be Montagues. Juliet, however, was promised by her father to marry the Prince, who attends the party. They attend the party, covered in white sand to look like Capulets, and Romeo falls in love with Juliet at first sight. His humorous friend, Mercutio (Chip Albers), urges him and another of his friends, Benvolio ( Sam Gold), to go to a Capulet party later that evening. Romeo (Daniel Tripett), Montague's only son, is depressed, wishing to fall in love with someone. A animal fighting on the shore lake and animal kingdom is ended when the Prince ( Phil Nibbelink), a large and monstrous elephant seal, appears and warns the two groups that, should there be any more disturbance, the seal who caused it shall be exiled to Shark Island, a fin shaped rock where a shark lives.
