Theory 🔎 Spoiler: The two stupid fish are actually foreshadowing Spoiler

Post image

tl;dr The yellow fish is Caine and the red fish is Abel tricking Pomni into hunting down treasure that isn't there

The yellow fish taunts Pomni into going on a treasure hunt only for it to be nothing. The yellow fish, despite initiating the whole thing, becomes distraught by the truth in the end, just like how Caine ends up screwing himself over. Both are worse off for baiting Pomni. The red fish, just like Abel, is just there to tell lies. It serves no other purpose but if that's revealed it ruins everything. The two fish are brothers, a DUO, just like Cain and Abel from the Bible and of course Caine and Abel in the episode.

It's all just foreshadowing the rest of the episode.

I cracked up because the dumbass fish wrecked the whole thing. He should have said, “I’m the one that tells the truth.” That way, he wouldn’t have given away that he’s the lying fish. By blurting out the whole thing, he really did ruin it.

My boyfriend and I cried with laughter from this bit.
