The whole Gym fills up with people eager to see the show. {{Ash}} and {{an|Brock}} are sitting among the audience, and Ash is excited to see Misty. The show starts smoothly with Misty swimming with the water Pokémon. While {{ka|Lily}} and [[Violet]] (in costume) are watching {{TRT}} attacks them and replaces them to be the antagonists of the show. {{an|Daisy}}, who had been taking tickets, hears her cue on the pre-recorded voiceover and goes to change. Ash and Brock rush past them to help Misty. Confused at this, Daisy hears banging on a nearby locker, and finds Lily and Violet bound and gagged. An underwater battle commence between Misty's and Ash's water Pokémon and [[Jessie's Arbok]]. Despite being outnumbered, Arbok is able to defend itself against Horsea, Seaking, Squirtle and Starmie.

The battle continues and the audience are completely convinced that it's all part of the show and are practically enjoying it. Although Weezing floats to the surface, unable to be underwater, Arbok dominates its opponents and rounds them up, looking to finish them off. As it looks like Arbok has won, {{OBP|Seel|Cerulean Gym}} fights well against Arbok and eventually evolves into {{p|Dewgong}} to freeze Team Rocket in ice. After Misty and Brock pull out the Water Pokémon, {{AP|Pikachu}} electrocutes the water, sending Jessie, James, and Arbok upwards, hitting Meowth and the balloon, sending them blasting off once more. The crowd goes wild, an obvious fact that they enjoyed the show. Because of this, the Cerulean Gym shows are popular again.

Before departing, Misty decides to leave Horsea in the Gym, and her sisters also borrow her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}}. They also want {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and Pikachu as well, but Misty and Ash refuse to hand them over, but Misty offers to let them have {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, which the sisters say they aren't that desperate for. After all that, Ash and his friends bid farewell to the Sensational Sisters to continue their journey. As they leave Cerulean City, Ash says that Misty was pretty amazing back there, but Misty reminds him that he still owes her a bike.

* The sign in front of the gym has its text changed from “Hanada Gym” to “Cerulean Gym”.
* The underwater ballet poster in the Cerulean Gym had its text translated for the dubbed version.
* Ash compares the mermaid on the poster to Misty in the dub, while he comments on the oddness of the gym doing swimming and underwater ballet shows in the original.
* Lily guilt-trips Misty by saying the customers will be disappointed in the dub, but she simply teases her inexperience in the original.
* Lily starts narrating the ballet's plot earlier in the dub; in the original she starts by saying she's more worthy for the role but is being kind by giving it to Misty.
* When Brock and Ash are applauding the ballet rehearsal, they specifically complement the prince and the Seel respectively in the dub. In the original they simply complemented the story in general.
* James’ quip that “next time [they’ll] steal men’s clothes” was originally just a remark on the magnificence of their plan.
* The sign that says “Metamon Coffee & Tea” had the word {{tt|Metamon|Ditto}} digitally erased from it.
* In the final exchange of the dub, Ash complements Misty’s performance while Misty tells him flattery won’t make her forget about her destroyed [[Bicycle|bike]]. In the original, Ash reaffirms his original suspicion of the gym while Misty tells him not to think much of it.
