Synopsis:
A manned satellite crashes into the ocean and is not found for ten days. Amazingly the astronaut, Fred Jansen, survives despite the fact that the capsule held only three days of air.

Jansen relates his story to his friend, Barry Allen. While he believes he was unconscious for the experience, he did have a strange dream. In his dream an underwater race rescues his capsule and asks him to bring them help from the surface world. Then they return his capsule to the surface.

Barry believes the dream may actually have been a real event and investigates as the Flash. Using his amazing speed, Flash arrives at the cavern that Fred described. Flash then meets the Saremites from Fred’s dream.

As the Saremites greet Flash, their enemies, the Maugites attack. Flash helps chase off the attackers and defeats them. The Saremites see that their opponent can now be beaten and will continue the fight themselves using primitive bows and arrows. Flash returns to the surface and informs Jansen that his dream was real.
