FULL SUMMARY:
Chapter 8 portrays Crystal engrossed in her sketching assignment for an upcoming seahorse-themed exhibit, which serves as her father's latest plan to boost the aquarium's popularity. Crystal's fondness for painting is evident as she welcomes this opportunity to contribute to the exhibit and see her work displayed for the tourists, comparing it to a personal art exhibition. The aquarium holds the Knysna seahorse, a threatened species, in high value, with Crystal narrating how baby seahorses were earlier nurtured and released back to the marine conservatory near Knysna, highlighting Aqua World's conservation efforts. Further, a startled interaction with Kevin ensues, who compliments Crystal's artistic skills and informs her about Ginger playing with the ball, drawing an appreciative response regarding her father's excitement from her. Kevin starts expressing his admiration for Crystal's father, but their conversation is interrupted by Bianca who light-heartedly teases Kevin, now touted as the aquarium's new dolphin trainer, before treating him to an ice cream. The deliberate affectionate gesture towards Kevin from Bianca causes increasing internal discomfort for Crystal, only alleviated by an incoming phone call. Sanri's invitation for a beach party at Kelly's Beach draws the chapter to a close, heightening Crystal's anxiety towards her social interactions outside the confines of her aquarium world.

FULL SUMMARY:
In Hoofstuk 8 help Crystal, die akwarium-eienaar se dogter, haar pa met 'n seeperdjie-uitstalling in die akwarium deur tekeninge te maak wat deur toeriste gesien sal word. Sy beskryf die uitstalling as 'n soort kunsuitstalling. Volgens Crystal was haar pa besonders trots toe Aqua World vroeër dié jaar seeperdjie kleintjies gekry het, wat later in 'n mariene bewaar-area naby Knysna vrygelaat is. Terwyl sy teken, word Crystal verras deur Kevin, die vandale wat by die akwarium werk vir gemeenskapsdiens. Hy loof haar vaardighede in kuns en kommunikeer nuus dat die dolfyn, Ginger, met 'n bal gespeel het. Kevin toon waardering vir Crystal se pa. Bianca, 'n werker by die akwarium, nader hulle met twee roomys; een bied sy aan Kevin aan as weerspiëling van haar duidelike belangstelling in hom. Terwyl Bianca met haar vinger roomys van Kevin se neus veeg, ontvang Crystal 'n oproep van haar vriendin, Sanri, wat haar vra om by 'n strandpartytjie op Kelly's Beach saam te kom. Die hoofstuk sluit met Crystal wat vir Kevin en Bianca verskoon terwyl sy die oproep aanvaar.
