Plot[]
Lucia heads to the juice stand where Ariel picks up juices for the family. However, Lucia is unsure of what she will do. Ariel suggests playing hide-and-seek. After Lucia gets a Sand Cherry Seaweed Special, Flounder arrives with a Foam Berry cupcake for Ravi. Lucia likes the idea of baking cupcakes, and accepts. Fernie then arrives, about to go for a nature swim around the palace. Lucia likes the idea, as well, and decides to help.
Ravi overhears this and tells Lucia what she did. Lucia wonders what she needs to do, and Ravi tells her that she can't do everything she wants at the same time. Lucia agreed to Ariel's playdate first, so she'll reject the others. However, after Ravi mentions Lucia being in three places at the same time, Lucia decides to do so with magic. The spell works, and it creates a Lucia who only says, "Knock-knock". Lucia creates a third Lucia, and that copy is very curious. Lucia then goes to Ariel's playdate, and states that everyone will be happy now that she's in all three places at once.
Lucia then arrives to Ariel's playdate. First, they go on the swings. Meanwhile, the second Lucia can only say, "Knock-knock" when asked to bake cupcakes. Flounder eventually notices something suspicious about Lucia's behavior, as she is using the kelp to pretend she is a bunny. Meanwhile, the third Lucia wonders what she sees are, and Fernie explains what all of them are. However, Lucia is going a little bit too fast.
Back at Ariel's playdate, Ariel and Lucia are having fun when the third Lucia captures Lucia's attention. A clattering sound is then heard, and Lucia and Ariel decide to play hide-and-seek. Lucia then overhears the second Lucia's knock-knock sounds. Just as Flounder as the sprinkles to the cupcakes, the lid got loosened so all of them got spilled out. The real Lucia then sees the third Lucia showing Fernie more sea life, and states that her copy spell didn't go as planned. She and Ariel then play Sea Checkers. However, Lucia quickly leaves to deal with the other Lucias.
However, the third Lucia takes the real Lucia's place on the Sea Checkers game. Meanwhile, the real Lucia is dealing with the second Lucia, who takes the place on the Sea Checkers game and takes the board itself. The real Lucia then gathers up the other Lucias before Ariel, Fernie, and Flounder arrive. Lucia then gets rid of the copies and states that she did so because she wanted to do three playdates at once, but she realizes that she can't do everything at the same time, and that it's best to do one thing at a time. The others accept the apology. Lucia and Flounder decide to make cupcakes later after she fixes the kitchen. Lucia also decides to start her nature swim with Fernie tomorrow and she decides for her and Ariel to set their playdate over again, with no more magic tricks. Ariel tells Flounder and Fernie that they're welcome to join. Fernie tells Flounder that it's interesting that there were three Lucias this whole time.
