After the success of Finding Nemo and Finding Dory, a third movie was always in the cards. But how could they possibly follow those two blockbusters? At Random Acts of Breadness, we're always looking at ways to be creative and we think that Finding Doughy would make a great sequel!
Doughy, Dory's long lost cousin, gets caught in a storm and the whirlpool propels him to the surface of the ocean where he lands on a wooden board shaped like a guitar. The board has a mysterious monogram on the headstock with only a single cryptic word: BREADNESS.
Doughy can't remember anything that happened before he landed on the guitar board so the only clue is BREADNESS.
He searches in the beach town where he landed but cannot find the elusive BREADNESS. He asks anyone (who would actually consider it normal to talk to a fish) what BREADNESS means. No one seems to know.
Then, Doughy hears a voice in his head: "Surf the net..."
Doughy doesn't understand. Surf the net? Nets are bad. Doughy has lost many friends to the nets.
But he hears the voice again: "Surf the net..."
He then asks the voice in his head: "What net?" to which the voice replies: "Internet."
Now Doughy is really confused. He finds another fish conversationalist and asks, "What's an Internet?" The kind person shows Doughy on their phone. Doughy is mesmerized by the moving shapes and colors.
When the helpful fin fan searches for BREADNESS and finds the breadness.com website, Doughy spots a photo of what looks like his family and asks how he can reunite with them.
The helpful human does the unthinkable... she drives Doughy to Burbank, one mile north of the Disney Studios north gate, and finds the Random Acts of Breadness bakery.
Spotting the similarities (except for the unique fish mouth on Doughy), Chef Randall introduces Doughy to this "school" of sourdough.
Doughy doesn't notice it at first, but he soon realizes that he can survive on land and doesn't have to go back in the water. He can stay at Random Acts of Breadness and hang out with the other loaves.
And so Doughy has found his new home (until someone comes along and adopts him).
What do you think? Is Finding Doughy the next blockbuster in the "Finding" Universe?
