Dada runs to the noodle shop to retrieve his soap bottle. Once he does, he asks Mr. Dishy what happened. He explains to Dada that in order to look slick, he has to stay 100% clean and then cleans Dada up again. Dada decides to take Mr. Dishy with him to be on the safe side. He looks for Ring Ring and finds her; she is flirting with a guy named Troy until she spots Dada and becomes much more interested in him than Troy (she is unaware that it's Dada, though). Dada asks Ring Ring if she wants to start dating, and she accepts. She brags to Pucca who just so happens to be passing by that her new boyfriend is "the coolest guy in town", and decides to show her and everyone else "how cool [he is]". First, Dada shows everyone how he is able to soar on a glider when a bird poops on him, causing him to turn bad to normal. He then falls to the ground and asks Mr. Dishy to help him, which he does, just before everyone arrives to see if he's okay. Then, Dada shows everyone how he can swim in the ocean. He gets some pearls and makes a necklace for Ring Ring. He is then about to go back up shore when a squid inks on him, turning him back to normal once again. Dada asks Mr. Dishy for help, who complains that Dada is "using [him] up too fast" and tells him to stay clean before cleaning him up again. Dada then goes up shore and gives the necklace to Ring Ring. After that, Ring Ring and Dada go to the noodle shop and Dada gives Ring Ring a diamond ring. She takes it but accidentally spills a little tea onto Dada, turning him back to normal. Dada is unable to find his dish soap so he crawls away from her so she doesn't see him and goes on the search for his dish soap and discovers Pucca took it to clean the dishes at the restaurant, and she has used it all up, which upsets Dada. Ring Ring then walks into the kitchen and realizes she was dating Dada, making everyone laugh at her. She becomes angry but then leaves. Dada tries to go after her but slips and falls on his back. The chefs tell Dada he shouldn't worry about impressing people and just be himself, which Pucca agrees to. Then the chefs tell Dada to clean up the kitchen, which he does. Pucca notices Dada still looks a bit upset, so to cheer him up, she gives him a hug.

- A soap opera is an ongoing, episodic work of fiction, usually broadcast on television or radio. Programs described as soap operas have existed as an entertainment long enough for audiences to recognize them simply by the term soap. The name soap opera stems from the original dramatic serials broadcast on radio that had soap manufacturers such as Procter and Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive, and Lever Brothers as the show's sponsors. These early radio serials were broadcast in weekday daytime slots when mostly housewives would be available to listen; thus the shows were aimed at and consumed by a predominantly female audience. The term soap opera has at times been generally applied to any romantic serial, but is also used to describe the more naturalistic, unglamorous evening, prime-time drama serials of the UK such as Coronation Street. What differentiates a soap from other television drama programs is the open-ended nature of the narrative, with stories spanning several episodes. The defining feature that makes a program a soap opera is that it, according to Albert Moran, is "that form of television that works with a continuous open narrative. Each episode ends with a promise that the storyline is to be continued in another episode".[3] Soap opera stories run concurrently, intersect, and lead into further developments. An individual episode of a soap opera will generally switch between several different concurrent story threads that may at times interconnect and affect one another, or may run entirely independent of each other. Each episode may feature some of the show's current storylines but not always all of them. There is some rotation of both storylines and actors so any given storyline or actor will appear in some but usually not all of a week's worth of episodes. Soap operas rarely "wrap things up" storywise, and generally avoid bringing all the current storylines to a conclusion at the same time. When one storyline ends there are always several other story threads at differing stages of development. Soap opera episodes typically end on some sort of cliffhanger. Evening soap operas sometimes differ from this general format and are more likely to feature the entire cast in each episode, and to represent all current storylines in each episode. Additionally, evening soap operas and other serials that run for only part of the year tend to bring things to a dramatic end-of-season cliffhanger. In the USA, the phrase "soap opera" has also entered the language as a metaphor that can be applied to any narrative, either real or imagined, that appears to be excessively laced with emotion, and contains what appear to be unlikely dramatic twists: "Her life is one big soap opera."
