Novak starts the boat and speeds away just as the piranhas surround Kelly and Jake. They are dragged to safety as the propane tanks explode, destroying the boat and killing most of the piranhas. Goodman calls Julie on the radio, and Julie tells him that they seem to have killed the majority of the piranhas. The horrified Goodman tells her that the reproductive glands on the piranha they obtained were not mature, which means that the fish they have killed were only the babies.
As Novak wonders aloud where the parents are, a human sized piranha leaps out of the water and eats him.

The film features quite a number of actors such as Richard Dreyfuss who gets credited and I never really noticed him, then figured out he was the fisherman at the beginning of the film.

They seem to be just having fun with this one and as I said, just don't take it too seriously and it is enjoyable enough.
