On a sunny beach day, a little girl eagerly awaits her sandwich at a food truck. As she enjoys the sandwich's aroma, a watchful seagull swoops down and snatches it from her hands, causing her to tumble into the sand. Determined to reclaim her meal, the girl chases the seagull, even throwing a shovel in a desperate attempt to stop it. The chase ends when the seagull crashes into a signpost, dropping the sandwich, only for a seal to eat it. Both the girl and the seagull are left watching the sunset in defeat, with the girl venting her frustration by slapping the seagull on the head.
