The ocean is calm, almost eerily still, when suddenly the water swells and bulges upward. A massive shape rises, sending waves crashing outward in every direction. Expecting a shipwreck, a sea monster, or some ancient ruin from the depths, onlookers brace themselves—only to freeze in stunned silence. Breaking through the surface, with water streaming off its polished curves, is a colossal rubber duck. Towering stories high, its bright yellow body gleams in the sunlight, and its round black eyes gaze forward with an almost knowing innocence. The ocean churns beneath its ridiculous yet strangely majestic form, as if even nature itself is confused. A deep, hollow *squeak* echoes across the waves, unnatural in its enormity. And then, just as the first gasps turn to laughter, another movement stirs the waves behind it—an even bigger rubber duck, this one wearing a pirate hat.
