1. If Melody's swimming clothes are her underdress for the dress she was wearing for the ball. Why are her clothes not wet.
Like you said, they were underclothes. I'm sure she had other dry ones.

2. Why does Melody Grasp in pain when transforming back to human she never does that when turning into a mermaid.
Her legs fused together the first time. The second time they were being torn apart. Also, I'm sure her lungs stopping to function underwater had something to do with it.

3. Where do the characters clothes go when transforming into mermaids.
I guess you could say they're magically stored. I really don't know. Magic doesn't follow logic. Don't think too much on it.

4. Why does Melody's shirt get shorter when being a mermaid.
Her body was altered. It either made her clothes looks smaller, or they changed to fit her new form.

5. How can Melody swim so deep without equalizing.
I assume you mean as a human. Despite Ariel now having legs, she was still actually a mermaid (which is why they could talk to fish). Melody was half mermaid, so her body was more adaptable to water pressure.

6. Trident is the king of the sea couldn't he find Morgana easily.
Well, it's unlikely that he knew every last area of the ocean. You could also say Morgana was using her magic to remain hidden.

7. Why didn't Ariel move away with Melody in order to keep her safe instead of building a wall.
Don't really have an answer. Was anywhere in the kingdom really safe?

8. So where does Ariels clothes go when she transforms into mermaid.

See #3. Or maybe they just dissolved.

9. How does Melody see underwater when being human.
You can actually see better underwater in the ocean than you can in the swimming pool (I've done, so I know).

10. How does Melody even know how to swim.
As a mermaid you mean? Well, it's not too hard to figure out I guess. She did have to practice a bit at first though, as was indicated in the first part of the song she sang "Get the hang of this flipper, it's like shoving two feet into one big huge slipper", "This way is left, but which way is right", "Oh so this is how you steer. No problem." It could have been instinctual. And if you ask this, you should ask how Ariel knew how to walk in the first movie.

11. Why didn't Ariel and Eric tell everything to Melody.
This is a common theme in many movies. Maybe because they didn't want her to worry.

12. Melody could not have gotten dried and dressed that quickly.
Are you talking about for the party? Was there really any indication of how much time went by? Also, don't be so nit-picky.

2. Why does Melody Grasp in pain when transforming back to human she never does that when turning into a mermaid.

The return trip is always more painful.

4. Why does Melody's shirt get shorter when being a mermaid.

It shrunk in the water.

5. How can Melody swim so deep without equalising.

She's part biological mermaid.

6. Trident is the king of the sea couldn't he find Morgana easily.

The sea is a BIG place. How can he keep tabs on EVERY sentient creature down there?

7. Why didn't Ariel move away with Melody in order to keep her safe instead of building a wall.

Prince Eric couldn't leave his work.

9. How does Melody see underwater when being human.

She eats a lot of carrots.

10. How does Melody even know how to swim.

Again, biological mermaid. It's instinct.

11. Why didn't Ariel and Eric tell everything to Melody.

Because the movie would've been too short.

12. Melody could not have gotten dried and dressed that quickly.

She can if she is drawn that way.

Even with the wall, The shore was still available for them to go for a swim. Ariel once dipped her feet in there.

As for her clothes getting wet, Disney logic doesn't always make sense.

As for her shirt getting shorter as a mermaid, the same thing can be said about Ariel wearing that sparky purple dress when King Triton turned her into a human.

As for Ariel not moving, I guess she either someone what missed her home orrr she just assumed that the giant wall would keep melody out
