Synopsis:
Danny and Rex join Major Dennis on a mapping expedition in the South Pacific. Their plane is forced to land on an island which sinks beneath the waves. They manage to escape the island in time and make their way to another island. There they befriend a group of island natives when Rex saves a boy from going over a waterfall.
The islanders explain that they are forced to pay tribute to an idol on the sinking island. Major Dennis, Danny, and Rex follow them to the island and expose a group of con men, who are using the island's sinking to prey upon the superstitious islanders. After having stopped the criminals, Major Dennis destroys the stone idol.
