Marineville, I am calling
battle stations.

Anything can happen in the
next half hour.

[mysterious music]

- My slave Marina has escaped!

Teufel, the mighty
god of the sea,

must tell me how I can
avenge her terrible betrayal.

Oh, great Teufel!

Show your face to Titan,

leader of the underwater
city of Titanica!

[tense music]

All-powerful Teufel,
vengeance must be mine!

Even now, Marina is with
the accursed Terrainians,

Troy Tempest and his friends!

[dramatic tense music]



You show me a blue coral
flower, great Teufel,

but how can that help me?

[dramatic tense music]

I don't see how.

But wait!

That exotic perfume, I
have never known it before.

It is intoxicating!

[tense music]

The temperature,

it is getting so hot
that I cannot breathe!

I am choking!

The flower, it is
consuming the atmosphere!

It must be!

I must destroy it!

[tense music]

[shell clattering]

Teufel, the mighty sea
god, has shown me the way.

The plant is the answer.

I will use the plant.

[dramatic tense music]

[melancholic pensive music]

- Say, Marina's crying!

Atlanta, she's really crying!

What are we gonna do?

- Well, what can we do, Troy?

She can't speak to tell
us why she's upset.

Maybe she doesn't
like Marineville,

or dry land, come to that.

- What does that mean, Marina?

You don't like it here?

Then you do.

- Say, maybe she's homesick.

- How 'bout it, Marina, are
you thinking about home?

- But where is her home?

Sure, we know it's on
the bottom of the ocean,

but exactly where?

- Hey, maybe she could
take us there in Stingray!

Alrighty, let's see
what we can do!

Never could refuse a lady.

- And what, Troy Tempest,
will HQ say

when I tell 'em that a
World Aquanaut Security ship

has gone on a pleasure cruise?

- But Commander Shore,
it'll be a chance

to meet Marina's people!

We'll be exploring a new
underwater city!

- Okay, Captain, the explanation
will take care of HQ.

Let's hope it satisfies Atlanta.

Somehow, I have my doubts.

[tense energetic music]

[soft warm music]

- Automatic boat's in operating,
Skipper.

- Thanks, Phones.

Now, Marina, we are here.

Is your home to the south of us?

Is it to the north then?

Great, you've got the idea.

Let's keep at it!

[tense music]

[mechanical whirring]

- Surface Agent
X-2-Zero to Titan.

X-2-Zero to Titan, come in,
please.

[beeping]
- Titan to X-2-Zero.

What have you to report?

- The World Aquanaut Security
Patrol vessel, Stingray,

has been launched and
is passing the island.

- Have you discovered its
destination, X-2-Zero?

- I have.

By means of the
interceptor monitor,

I have learned that Stingray
is bound for Pacifica

in the domain of the
traitorous Marina,

and she herself is aboard.

- Perfect!

It could not be better!

Come at once to Titanica.

I have a mission for you,

a mission of the
greatest importance.

[Stingray whirring]

- How about here, Marina?

Is your home anywhere
around there?

Right, what are we waiting for?

[mysterious music]

- Agent X-2-Zero, you will
go to Pacifica,

the underwater city of
Marina's father, Aphony,

and present him with this plant.

- [X-2-Zero] It is not
like the mighty Titan

to send flowers to an enemy.

- But this is a special flower.

When the cover is removed,

its exotic perfume will
consume the air,

and Aphony and his
guests from Stingray

will die as they deserve.

No one defies the great Titan

and the mighty fish god, Teufel!

You will say you are from the
underwater city of Kazula,

and have news of his daughter.

- But what about Stingray?

It's already
approaching the area,

and it might reach
there before me.

- I will arrange for an
escort vessel

to intercept Stingray
and delay it.

If the Terrainians are
destroyed, so much the better.

[tense mysterious music]

- Escort the vessel to
Agent X-2-Zero.

We are receiving signal of
approach of foreign vessel.

- [X-2-Xero] X-2-Zero to escort
vessel, it must be Stingray!

[Stingray whirring]

[sonar beeping]

- Troy, I'm gettin' a
readin' on the hydrphones.

- Can you identify it?

- Yeah, it sounds like one
of those mechanical fish

from Titanica, and there's
another smaller craft with it.

[beeping]

- Escort ship to Agent X-2-Zero.

Stingray is
approaching at speed.

- You must intercept
Stingray at all costs.

I will proceed to
Aphony's domain.

[dramatic tense music]

[tense mysterious music]

- Dive, Troy, dive!

[loud blasting]

[tense music]

- Check all instruments, Phones!

- Troy, they're comin'
in for another attack!

[tense music]

[loud blasting]

- Right, stand by to
repel attack!

[tense music]

[loud blasting]

Aqua Sting 2, green, zero, five.

[tense music]

[loud blasting]

The old one-two, eh, Phones?

[water gurgling]

I want this craft
checked inside-out

before we leave our
present position.

- Right, Skipper.

Don't worry, marina, we'll
get you to your father

as quick as we can.

[bright warm music]

- Aphony, the peaceful one,

cultural lord of the
ocean's great leader

of the famed city of Pacifica,

I know you cannot speak,
but you understand my words.

I come in peace to give
you news of your daughter.

As is the custom in my part
of the underwater world,

I bring you a rare and
fragrant flower

as a symbol of peace and
an omen of good fortune.

I've heard that you
have suffered much

since the evil Titan
seized your daughter

and took her as a slave, but
Marina has made her escape

and is even now on her
way back to you.

I will not intrude on
this happy reunion.

My greetings and kind wishes,
Aphony.

[warm music]

[tense music]

- Agent X-2-Zero
reporting to Titan.

All is well, your instructions
have been carried out.

Marina and the Stingray
crew are doomed.

- There's a deep ocean
trench ahead, Troy.

- [Troy] Right, I
guess this is it.

[Stingray whirring]

- Skipper, I can see
some lights ahead.

- Yeah, Phones.

Say, it's a building, an
underwater skyscraper!

Jumping catfish, what a place!

It's fantastic!

[bright warm music]

Oh, the water's
being pumped out.

Won't be long now, Marina,
before we see your folks.

[water gurgling]

[mechanical whirring]

What a fantastic room!

It looks like some kind
of palace stateroom

and hall of culture all
rolled up in one.

[mechanical whirring]

Guess the old boy is her father,
Phones.

He sure is an
impressive-looking guy.

- Yeah, Troy, but what's
with all this arm wavin'?

- Guess they're talkin'
to each other,

maybe by thought transference.

I've got a feeling this is
gonna be quite a session.

[soft warm music]

This sure is a fantastic place,
Phones,

and this meal is delicious!

Guess this place is a
cultural underwater city.

Just look at those
statues and the books!

- Yeah, and look at
that exotic plant.

- Yeah, it's beautiful!

He's saying something
about the plant.

[dramatic tense music]

Gee, that perfume's out
of this world!

[tense music]

- What do you think, Troy?
Does Marina come back with us,

or will she stay here
with her father?

- I don't know, Phones.

I kinda hope she might
decide to become

a permanent member of our crew.

Well, we'll soon know.

We wish to thank you,

on behalf of the World
Aquanaut Security Patrol,

for the hospitality and
friendship extended to us.

Naturally, Marina, I would
like you to come back with us,

maybe help in the fight against
the enemies of your people,

but if you prefer to stay,
there are no hard feelings.

You understand?

[soft warm music]

- Come on, Troy, if she
wants to come back with us,

why, she'll follow.

It's time we got back, come on,
Skipper.

[warm pensive music]

[mechanical whirring]

[dramatic music]

[Stingray whirring]

Shall I radio Marineville

that we're on our way
back to base?

- Yeah, [sighs] I guess so.

[knocking on glass]

Say, Phones, do you
hear something?

- Yeah!
[knocking on glass]

Sounds like something
banging on the hull!

It is, Skipper, look!

- It's Marina, I knew it!

Phones, open the
starboard airlock!

- Yes, sir, Captain Troy!

[tense energetic music]

- The next thing we
heard was Marina

tapping on Stingray's cabin.

- But what about her father?

Surely, he could be in
danger from Titan!

How could she desert him?

- Maybe she figures she
can best fight

her father's enemy with us.

- Yeah, and maybe she's
still working for Titan

and come back to spy on us.

[ominous mysterious music]

Are you giving this to me,
Marina?

- Well, isn't that a
sweet thing to do?

How about that, Atlanta?

- Well, I must admit, it's
a nice gesture.

Thanks, Marina.

[dramatic tense music]

[sniffs deeply]

[moans]

[romantic piano music]

[ominous mysterious music]

I can't breathe!

[coughs] It's so stuffy
and hot in here.

Help!

Air!
[doorbell rings]

[tense music]

[doorbell rings]

- I can't figure this.

Still no reply.

[doorbell ringing]

Atlanta!

[dramatic tense music]

[banging against door]

[coughing] Atlanta, Atlanta!

Gee! [coughing]

There's no air in here!

- The air was consumed
by that plant.

There's no doubt about it!

- Well, it looks that way.

How you doin' now, Atlanta?

- Oh, I'll be okay, Troy,
thanks to you,

but Marina must hate me
pretty bad to do this to me.

- Well, you sure could
have fooled me.

She looks so sweet.

- Now, wait a minute!

We can't be certain Marina knew
anything about that flower!

- Maybe not, but the evidence
is pretty conclusive.

- I know you think I'm crazy,

but I believe Marina's innocent.

- Fine words, Captain, but
you'll have to prove it.

- I'll prove it, even if
I have to risk

her life to prove it!

You see, I believe in Marina.

[dramatic tense music]

[soft warm music]

[mysterious music]

[taps on piano key]

[taps on piano key]

[discordant piano music]

Now, if Marina knows the
deadly effect of that plant,

she'll get out of there fast.

- Then we'll know for
sure she's a spy.

[discordant piano music]

- She's tiring, but she
obviously doesn't know why.

- She may be bluffing.

Give her a few more minutes.

We gotta be certain.

[discordant piano music]

- Oh, stop it, stop it!

I know what she's going through!

She must be innocent, she must!

- Not yet, Atlanta!

There's still time for
her to smash the plant,

if she's guilty.

[discordant piano music]

- She's collapsed.

- Okay, Troy, get rid
of that plant!

- Too late, Commander,
he's already gone.

[dramatic tense music]

- Are you okay, Marina?

- Oh, gee, I'm sorry I
ever doubted you, Marina.

Please forgive me!

- I guess we all owe
you an apology, Marina.

- Yeah, we'll sure know
what to expect

if we see one of those
flowers again.

- Now, let's have some dinner.

You're all invited, and
Marina is guest of honor.

- There's just one thing

that still worries me
about Marina.

- What's that, Troy?

- Her piano playing,
it's terrible!

Will you teach her to
play properly, Atlanta?

- I sure will, Troy.

It'll be a pleasure.
