On their way to Grand Festival, Ash and Dawn are practicing for their upcoming battles and contest while Brock is preparing a meal. Dawn starts off with having Piplup use Whirlpool. She then praises Piplup for its "greater than great" Whirlpool. Brock is kneeling by a river getting ready to clean a net full of berries when he sees a mysterious boat floating down the river. He then notices that a girl ([[Marley]]) is fast asleep in the boat. He attempts to wake her while walking with the boat. That's when he realizes that it is headed straight for a huge waterfall. He starts yelling at her to try and wake her, but to no avail. He then wades into the water and heroically grabs the boat and blocks it from falling. After the opening theme the scence shows Brock a couple of feet before the waterfall when he notices that there is a rope int he boat. He calls out [[Brock's Happiny|Happiny]], who proceeds to toss the entire boat and Brock onto the shore. Ash and Dawn come running up asking if he's ok. He says that he's ok and directs their attention to Marley. As the camera scrolls up her motionless body, Dawn asks if she is real or not. Suddenly Marley opens her eyes and gets up. The first thing she asked are the whereabouts of her basket which is still in the boat with her. She thanks goodness that the basket is unharmed and asks Brock why he's all wet. Brock seems confused by this question when Ash pipes in and semi-sarcastically says that she was about to go over a waterfall. Dawn then tells her that's why he is wet. Marley responds by verbally assuming that Brock's name is Brock. Dawn agitatedly responds that she should at least thank Brock for saving her, but Brock shrugs it off. Marley exits the boat and asks who Dawn and Ash are. Ash and Dawn are taken aback by her complacent attitude and quickly introduce themselves and Pokémon. Brock asks Marley why she was sleeping in the boat, she tells them that she was hiding and had accidentally fallen asleep. She also explains that there was a group of "very bad people" (A.K.A [[Team Rocket]]) after her. She then turns to Brock and asks him to protect her. She explains that she has to go to the other side of what seems to be [[Mt. Coronet]]. Ash and Dawn interject by saying that she can't just expect them to just say yes and bring her over the mountain, she tells them off by saying that she wasn't asking them which angers Ash. While Brock is thinking Dawn tells him that Marley will be fine by herself. Brock tells Dawn that if Marley is being chased and that the group is going that way anyway, that they can go together, an idea which Ash and Dawn seem almost sickened by. The scene switches to the four walking along a trail. Brock asks Marley where she will be heading after crossing over the Mountain. She says that she is headed to a very secret garden. Ash tries to get more information but Marley won't tell any more. Dawn asks Marley why all the bad people are after her and Marley sarcastically responds "It's because i'm an alien". Ash and Dawn are suprised by this and excitedly ask if she is kidding. She very calmly says "I'm kidding". Piplup's stomach starts to growl so Brock starts getting out Pokémon food. Marley stresses how she's in a hurry and is reassured by Brock that it won't take long. Marley is staring at Piplup and Pikachu happily eating when she suddenly announces that she is going for a walk. The three remaining are very surprised by Marley's strange behavior. | On their way to Grand Festival, Ash and Dawn are practicing for their upcoming battles and contest while Brock is preparing a meal.
