She wasn't allowed to swim that far. But Dory forgot.Dory was just about to pick up the shell when-Whoosh! she was pulled away by the undertow. She couldn't find her way home. Eventually, she forgot what she was looking for.Marlin was far from home, too. No one was able to help. He was looking for his son NemoAnd then she crashed into Marlin.Dory helped Marlin cross the ocean and find Nemo.She went to live with them in the coral reef. She finally had a new home.One day, Dory went with Nemo’s class on a field trip to see the stingray migration.
