When the wife of a famous actor is found dead, Charlie Waldo, a former LAPD superstar comes out of retirement to investigate what really happened.

Zac is still enjoying being a merman and the mermaids are no closer to removing his powers. Lyla believes they need a new strategy - maybe they should become his friend so they can convince him to lose his powers. But Nixie doesn't think Lyla is capable of making friends - she can't even make friends with a dolphin! Unfortunately for Lyla she never learnt to speak dolphin, one of the perks of being a mermaid, and Sirena and Nixie love to make fun...

Sirena's sister Aquata returns to Mako with wonderful news - Sirena can return to the pod! Unfortunately, the invitation isn't extended to Lyla and Nixie. When Zac finds the Moon Pool he tries to kick Lyla and Nixie out. In a showdown between Zac and the mermaids, Lyla manages to seize the Trident from Zac, and hides it in a cave deep in the ocean. Sirena decides to stay and defend the island, and the Moon Pool, with Lyla and Nixie.

The threat of rain keeps Lyla, Nixie and Sirena indoors and unable to look for Zac. Nixie decides it's too risky to try to get to Zac and heads out to Mako Island alone. Refusing to simply wait for the rain to clear, Lyla suggests that Sirena uses her Moon Ring to stop the rain. Inexperienced with the Moon Ring's magic, Lyla and Sirena create a blizzard in Rita's secret Grotto and ice over the sea entrance. While trapped in Rita's house, the two young...

While the mermaids try to take the Trident from him, Sirena's Moon Ring triggers a glow from the Trident. Zac escapes with the now activated Trident... and the ability to wield its mighty power.

Now that he knows Sirena, Lyla and Nixie are mermaids, Zac begins to wonder about his school principal, Rita, and why she helps the mermaids. Zac quickly uncovers the truth - Rita is also a mermaid. He uses this insight to get out of doing homework, but Sirena, Lyla and Nixie won't stand to see Rita pushed around. By giving him a taste of his own medicine, the mermaids convince Zac to leave Rita out of their problems.

When Rita's cat, Poseidon steps through a puddle of mermaid powders, he is transformed into a person. A girl - identical to Evie! A boy cat, in a real girl's body, Cst-Evie's behaviour raises many eyebrows. Zac and the mermaids must work together to reverse the spell before Cat-Evue and the real Evie cross paths.

Lyla, Nixie and Sirena use Rita's secret sea entrance to return to land. While leaving they discover another secret cavern, the Grotto, full of sea objects and treasure. Angry that the mermaids are back, a fearful Rita warns them about the ways of land dwellers. But to Nixie and Sirena the land is a world full of new and exciting experiences, like shopping. To Lyla, their legs are a temporary necessity until they can remove Zac's merman powers. Lyla...
