Three fish lived in a pool. One was named Plan Ahead, another was Think Fast, and the third was named Wait and See. One day they heard a fisherman say that he was going to cast his net (撒网) in the pool the next day.
Plan Ahead said, “I’m swimming down the river tonight!”
Think Fast said, “I’m sure I’ll come up with a plan.”
Wait and See said, “I just can’t think about it now!”
When the fisherman cast his net, Plan Ahead was long gone. But Think Fast and Wait and See were captured!
Think Fast quickly rolled his belly (腹部) up and looked as if he was dead. “Oh, this fish is no good!” said the fisherman, and he put him back into the water. But, Wait and See ended up in the fish market.
That is why they say, “In times of danger, when the net is cast, plan ahead or plan to think fast!”
