Synopsis:
The Sea Devils help Professor Rend excavate the fossils of a manosaur from the ocean floor. The manosaur is a giant half-lizard creature. It comes to life after being brought to the surface and takes Judy hostage. The manosaur is actually a robot controlled by Rend.
The Sea Devils and Man-Fish both pursue the manosaur and Judy to a sunken ship. Professor Rend expects to find a young living manosaur inside. The young manosaur is actually full grown. It destroys the robot, then attacks Dane. Man-Fish, the Sea Devils, and Captain X all try to free him. Working together, the manosaur is finally killed without harming Dane or the others.
