The trio intervenes because they are aware that Nikora is also a mermaid, a fact that complicates the situation. Their efforts to prevent the marriage stem from this shared identity, creating tension as the engagement proceeds despite their objections. The episode focuses on the conflict between the proposal and the group's knowledge of Nikora's true nature.
