Scientists are drilling a whole into the Ocean floor, only to discover
- another ocean, deep deep underground. So the World Aquanaut Security
Patrol sends their supersub Stingray to investigate the subterranean
sea. However, once they are down there, they witness the water
disappear and quick, and since Stingray can't operate out of waater, the
crew - Captain Troy Tempest, Phones and Marina - decide to take a stroll
and look around. Then though the water comes back, and the threesome make
it back to the safety of their sub just in time - only to then find out
their instruments are broken, so they have to find an exit to the upper
world on their own. Of course they make it and come out somewhere in the
South Seas - just in time for their holidays.
Oh well: The underground world sets do look pretty impressive actually,
but to have the characters stroll around in it too much was not
necessarily a good idea, since marionettes as a rule look rather goofy
when strolling around, which takes much of the episode's impact. Other
than that, the story is very basic and not very suspenseful and it by and
large lacks special effects - which are actually the series' forte.
Not entirely bad, but not really good - not even by the series'
standards - either.
