Nothing spoils a peaceful day at the beach quite like a pint-sized pirate with a sense of entitlement and a flair for drama. Two sisters, blissfully sculpting sand castles, are interrupted when a random kid marches over and declares their bucket his lost treasure. The older sister, already wise to playground politics, blocks every grab with the poise of a seasoned goalie. The boy, realizing brute force won’t cut it, cranks up the waterworks and summons his mother, who arrives ready to escalate a plastic bucket dispute to federal court.
