And he's not the only one who's lost in these wayward waters: Lars, a rowdy pup, is knocked overboard a nearby boat. With the help of a girl named Natalie, Bangor rescues Lars, and they become fast friends. But not everyone in the small town approves of this unlikely friendship. Some find Lars a nuisance to the community, and it isn't safe for Bangor to remain in the harbor. It's up to Natalie to convince the town to locate Bangor's pod and return him safely home -- even if it means saying goodbye to her new friend.

Now, Bangor and his pod are back, but they're not the only newcomers in town: Oguinquit has been overrun with tourists and reporters (and in the off-season, too!) who want to catch a glimpse of the dog-and-porpoise duo.
