Mike the fish was a bully who would pick on and take food from the other fish in the bowl. The other fish got tired of Mike's behavior and devised a plan to escape to the neighboring bowl. All but one fish made it safely to the new bowl. In response, Mike began training daily to lose weight and gain speed so he could make the jump too. However, when Mike finally tried to make the jump, he had lost too much weight and overshot the bowl, flying out the open window into the pond below where he was eaten by a turtle. The other fish were happy to be free of Mike's bullying.
