Uniquely, he really likes to carry a cell phone around his neck. This is because Ariel is never separated from his gadgets. He is jealous of human life on land who always posts food on social media.

Ariel herself is very obsessed with ordinary human life. She also likes a guy who often comes to the beach where Ariel lives. He was bored because in his residence there were only women, while he craved handsome men.

One day Ariel and his friend, Buled (Meinorizah), are playing in the ocean, they both meet two handsome boys who are cool to jetski. At that moment they immediately fell in love with the two men. One of them is Troy (Esa Sigit). That afternoon, Troy came with his parents to celebrate the 17th birthday of Erick (Angga Aldi Yunanda), his younger brother. When he and Erick and Bhishma (Arnold Leonard) were busy playing a speed boat, Eric fell and drowned. Ariel thought it was Troy. Ariel rushed to help.
