Synopsis:
Dane secretly contacts his father Captain X and arranges a meeting. When he arrives, he finds his dad's submarine empty and Man-Fish swimming away. Dane believes Man-Fish has killed his father and swears vengeance.
Dane enlists the other Sea Devils in a relentless pursuit of Man-Fish. It appears as if Man-Fish transforms himself into a giant monster that attacks the sub. Despite the danger to his teammates, Dane obsessively pursues the beast. When the other Sea Devils object, Dane still persists.
Dane then fires a torpedo from his father's sub at the creature, only to discover that his dad is inside the torpedo. Dane rescues his father, but the creature is about to destroy the sub. The other Sea Devils and the real Man-Fish then arrive on the scene. Dane had only mistaken the creature for Man-Fish. The real Man-Fish saves the sub and fights off the creature. Captain X retakes command of his sub. Dane apologizes to the other Sea Devils, and all is forgiven.
