Synopsis:
Every Sea Devil except for Nicky is presented with a prestigious Davy award for their underwater heroism. Nicky feels that he is not worthy of the team, but his teammates disagree. They try to fake accidents in order to make a hero of Nicky, but he sees through their schemes and decides to quit the team. The remaining members are then threatened by a magnetic creature that has also been capturing seafaring vessels. Nicky comes to their rescue and successfully earns himself a Davy and confidence to continue as a member of the Sea Devils.
