The protagonist is in a variety of relationships Location: Bua New Guinea, shark catcher Bryce and a grey reef shark are the "hunter" and "prey" relationship and the main relationship of the episode. The whole story is about the process of people catching sharks. When the shark catchers successfully caught the grey reef shark, and at the end of the film, Bryce released the grey reef shark back to the sea again, reflecting the increasing efforts of human beings to protect it. Actions taken by rare sharks call for harmony between humans and wildlife. 2. The clear goal of the protagonist, the shark catcher Bryce's clear external goal is to catch the gray reef shark that was "called" by himself. Known as the "Ocean Wizard" and very patient, he will eventually success. But Bryce's internal goal is also to release sharks to keep his shark-hunting culture alive and protect the increasingly rare wild animals caught by humans. This is also the ecological awareness concept that the documentary wants to bring to the audience. 3. The "stimulus trigger" that breaks the balance.

Help the shark catcher to set the shark free for the twist of the story. This also relieved the audience's nervousness from seeing the shark catching process from the front.
