Fontaine!

What is it?

Our least-favourite attention-seeking showman,

Devil Daniels.

Urgh.

Behold, loyal viewers!

My underwater drone camera

recently discovered an ancient Viking shipwreck!

Laden with Treasure!

A good day to be Devil Daniels!

Adventurer,

Monster Hunter,

Man of Action!

Phony,

self-centered,

Man of Annoyance.

It's hidden deep within the hydrothermal vents

in the North Atlantic, known as Loki's Castle.

But only I know exactly where!

The local government have wisely entrusted me, "Devil Daniels",

with the task of raising the treasure.

Devil Daniels?!

Trusted with something priceless and fragile?!

That's pretty much the worst idea ever.

Time to call the monster hunter.

Ah! William Nekton!

Mister Daniels.

We'd like to help you raise that Viking treasure.

Heh.

And why would a charismatic,

solo-adventurer like me need help?

Because we have experience

with this sort of delicate operation.

And... how do I put this?

We're worried you'll turn an incredible,

ancient ship into little broken pieces of ancient ship.

Ugh, do they call me "Devil Daniels the clumsy?"

No - I'm "Devil Daniels Treasure Hunter".

At least I am this week.

Daniels, look out!

Is that a threat, Fontaine?

Gohhhh--

( muffled grunts )

( gasps )

Arrrggghhh!

Mad Madeline!

That's right!

And there's nothin' you can do

'cause us pirates is smarter than you!

Puh-lease.

My fish is smarter than you!

Why, you little...

( straining )

Forget about that treasure, Nektons.

It belongs to Captain Hammerhead now.

( evil laughter )

My family are explorers.

We have been for generations.

While others look up to the stars...

...we know there are an infinite number of things

that shine in the darkness below.

There are things lurking in the seas

that long ago vanished into myth.

My family are explorers.

And we explore...

THE DEEP!

♪

We won't stand by...

...while you kidnap someone.

What?

This ain't about the treasure?

You want Devil Daniels?

( muffled pleas )

Um... have you met him?

People are more important than treasure.

Even Daniels.

Hahahahahhaahaaaha!

Now that's funny!

Hahahahahhaahaaaha!

Excuse me - I got plunder to...

well, you know... plunder.

Can we track the Dark Orca?

No.

Their sonar evasion technology is too effective.

Well, we may not know exactly where the treasure is,

but we do know it's somewhere within Loki's Castle.

Setting a course there now.

Uh, Mister Hammerhead, excuse me.

Look, if this isn't going to be about me rescuing the treasure

perhaps we could focus on the antagonistic relationship

between you and the Nektons.

What?

"Man of Action" brings arch enemies face-to-face

in mammoth, underwater confrontation!

Get him out of here!

I've already got me own plans for the Nektons!

Get that treasure now!

And load it up quick if you want to earn your one percent share!

Loki's Castle covers a large area.

We could be searching for days.

Can we track those traces of diesel fuel

the Dark Orca's always leaking?

Analyzing the water outside...

...there.

Paraffins,

Napthalines

and Alkylbenzines -

all the elements found in Diesel!

Follow that trail!

Careful!

A single piece of treasure gets left behind -

so do you!

Huh?

( alarm wailing )

Heads up Captain...

...The Aronnax is on its way.

Perfect.

They're doing just what we want them to do.

Everyone clear on the plan?

You board the Orca and grab Daniels.

I return him to the Aronnax.

I disable the Orca's propellers to hold it

until the authorities arrive.

And I'll sit here piloting just because it's Fontaine's "turn"

to have fun.

We're not "having fun", Ant.

We're on a mission.

The most fun mission ever.

Hrmmm...

Not helping, Fontaine.

( straining )

Hey! Guys?!

I'm trapped!

Kaiko!

( straining )

Hammerhead!

Release Kaiko now!

Hammerhead!

I'm coming, dad!

Looks like you'll need my help after all.

Auto-pilot on.

( evil laugh )

Welcome aboard.

( evil laugh )

For a job like this, you'll need the Mag Knight.

( straining )

Danny Boy -- hail Finn,

and give us eyes in the Orca Moon-pool.

Hmm, you don't look so smart.

( straining )

I'm coming mum!

At least I've got a good vantage point on the treasure.

Huh?

Ooohhhh, well done Nektons.

You opened a door.

Um, guys...

Hammerhead's on the Aronnax.

( All ): He's what?!

Get off our ship Hammerhead!

Oh, I don't think so Miss Nek-ton.

In fact, I think it could use a new name.

Is calling it "The Hammerhead" too modest?

I like it, Captain.

Sounds strong.

We'll show you strong, Hammerhead.

Ant. Will.

( straining )

What in the blazes are they doing?

Nektons! Get off my Dark Orca!

Your Dark Orca?

Not anymore.

Finn -- call the guards!

Aye-aye Captain!

( laughs )

Stop right there!

Finn -- we got the Nektons.

Eghhh...

Captain, the guards say they've apprehended the--

What the...?

( distant screams )

Back off!

I'll defend my home to...

...to the point where I'm clearly outnumbered.

Ah, Fontaine.

( chuckles )

My favorite Nekton.

( sighs )

Where'd you put my crew?

The brig.

We don't have a brig.

A dark, dirty room with no windows

that smelled of old, dead things...?

Ah. That's the kitchen.

Where's Devil Daniels?

I don't know.

Probably somewhere he can't be heard.

He got pretty annoying pretty quickly.

Yeah. He does that.

Don't worry.

I'll find him.

Aggh!

Loose wire.

It does that.

Ant -- I need to figure out how to work this heap.

See if there's a manual.

Is this the end of Devil Daniels?

Imprisoned without a glimmer of hope.

When suddenly,

a daring rescue by my favorite Nekton.

Ugh, I can un-rescue you just as easily if you keep talking.

Nektons!

What do you think you're doing?

Surrender now and we may decide to leave your precious home

in one piece.

That treasure doesn't belong to you,

or your pirates, Hammerhead.

You think you're gonna' take me treasure away?!

Do I have to remind you about your treasure, Nekton?

I know you keep something rare and valuable in your safe,

and soon it'll be mine.

Do you wanna' play the hard way?

Let's play the hard way!!!

Will, what if Hammerhead gets his hands

on the Chronicle of the Deep?

I've upgraded the security system.

Nobody could get into that safe.

( laughs )

Watch and learn fish!

There's no safe in the world that Mad Madeline can't crack!

Huh?

But...

there's no safe in the world that Mad Madeline can't crack...

Hmm, maybe I don't have to crack it.

Maybe I can get them to open it for me.

All I need is a bargaining chip.

Come here you!

Ugh!

Huh?

Grrr-uuuggghhh...

We need to find an advantage.

I've already found one.

What's that?

A list of every type of torpedo on board!

Find something that won't damage our home.

I already have!

It's called...

The Gooper.

Garrghhh!

We're under attack!

The Gooper?

Th-those scoundrels!

Danny Boy, return fire!

Returning fire, captain!

Eh...ugh...

umm... Captain?

This sub's got nothing.

No torpedoes, no lasers, no well-trained sharks.

But...

But how do they take whatever they want

and destroy anyone in their path?

Maybe they don't.

But... with our weapons, they can now.

( gasps )

Turn!

Retreat!

Yes!

"Gooped" them again.

( laughs )

Attention, everyone!

Your Director is here!

Devil Daniels discovers ancient treasure,

gets captured by a horde of ruthless pirates,

escapes imprisonment,

and arrives just in time to save the day!

All we need is... An explosion!

No!

What torpedo was that?!

Agh! The Squid-Inker!

( gasps )

( sighs )

You give rescuing people a bad name.

We'll be as good as blind in that cloud.

We are not losing our home.

Look at you.

Completely oblivious to the fact

that you're about to be captured.

Who's the smartest one now?

The human, that's who.

I don't want to leave the Orca and that treasure behind.

( gasps )

Stop now!

Wahh-ooo-ahhh...

Ughh!

Noooo!

Ehh...

Ugh...

Sorry, Captain.

The reverse thrusters on the Orca never worked that well!

Ugh, or at all.

Guaaahhhh!

Stop, stop, stop!

This thing...doesn't stop!

Guuuuaaaaahhhhhhh!

Aggggghhhhhhhhh!

Are these leaks normal?!

Maybe...

...a bit worse than normal?

You have to admit...

...this is a great cliffhanger!

Do you have a welding gun?!

Nope.

What do you use when there's a leak?!

Is anyone else worried that the pirates could get away?

Not much excitement without our adversaries.

Daniels!

Whaaaa?

Ughhhh?

Wahhh-wooohhhh-woooo...

( grunt )

What were you thinking?

I was just thinking we needed to up the stakes.

When we get out of here,

you are going to answer for this!

Answer for what?

My only crime is my commitment to great entertainment.

Perfect, because this will be very entertaining.

Y-you can't do this!

I'm the director!

You're deluded.

Ha-ha! This is perfect.

Danny Boy, force the Dark Orca down,

towards the lava.

( gasps )

Our crew are still on board!

And Finn!

Finn loves the heat!

I'm not going to fry them.

Just make 'em uncomfortable enough to surrender!

Oh Nektons!

The Orca might be colder and steelier than you're used to.

I thought you might appreciate a little bit of heat!

Ha-Harrgghh.

Hammerhead, what are you doing?!

This is crazy!

Crazy?!

When you've got treasure, you're eccentric!

Call me when you're ready to surrender.

Will, we have to get free of these cables.

I'm on it.

I'll cut through them with the Knight.

Ant, come with me to open the Orca Moon-pool.

Did you think someone just left food in your tank?

Grrrrr...

Come out fish.

Mad Madeline's got food for you.

You like food, don't you?

Hah!

Not so smart now, fish!

Madeline, come to the bridge.

It won't be long now

before we get to see the Nektons surrender.

Time to cut us loose!

Open the Moon-pool, Ant.

Hmmm...

Oh, no you don't, Nekton.

Guards! Get out there and stop him!

Huh?

Wha?

Ohh! What's wrong?

You don't have internal cooling systems in your suits?

Ohh! Ahh!

Wah-ha-ha-ha!

Wah-ohh-ohhhhhhh...

What? What are you doing?

Get out there and stop him!

We can't!

It's too hot, Captain!

Grrrrrrr...

We're clear!

Mum. Dad.

I have a plan to get us back on the Aronnax.

Grrruuuggghhh!

Those lousy, resourceful, do-gooders!

I want our ship and our treasure back now!

I think I can help with that.

Their fish.

They wouldn't give up a whole submarine and treasure

for a fish would they?

I don't know, Captain.

They're so good natured.

I can't relate to them at all.

Hammerhead!

Nektons.

We were just about to call you, heh-heh-heh...

It's over.

We have your fish.

Jeffrey!

Ah-ha-ha-ha!

You thought he was so smart, but I outsmarted him.

Let him go!

Um... no.

Th-that's not how this works.

You surrender and then you get your fish back.

Ugh, if you hurt him, I'll...

Huh?

You'll what?

W-why have you stopped talking?

( laughs )

Huh?

What?

But...

Ugh!

Humiliated by a fish.

Hah-hah, told you he was smarter than you.

Now. let's talk about what you care about, Hammerhead.

You said this was over.

Oh, it is.

Surrender.

Why would we surrender to you?

Because, if you don't, we destroy the treasure.

Hah, the Nektons would never-

( gasps )

You're- you're bluffing.

You might sacrifice one coin on a bluff but you'd never-

Nooooo!

Nektons! Stop this madness!

Ant. Hammerhead isn't agreeing to our demands.

Feel free to continue this madness.

Goodbye, precious treasure.

Nooooo!

All crew. Get out there!

Don't let them destroy my treasure!

Alone and friendless once more -

apart from thousands of internet followers -

C'mon! We're leaving.

I was just in the middle of a pathetic

but somewhat touching monologue.

Mind if I finish up?

Ugh...Now!!!

Don't let it fall into that lava!

Aargghh!

They're getting away!

It's okay.

Danny Boy has got 'em covered.

I take it they left you to guard?

Ummm... yeah.

AUUUGH!

Why don't you go guard something else.

Ummm... yeah.

( scared panting )

And so, Devil Daniels...

...frees himself, and the Nektons,

from the Pirate horde.

How exciting was that?!

We know about the treasure.

We would never destroy historic artifacts.

That treasure was all fake,

planted by you to make your show more exciting.

Hnnh, balderdash!

Fake Ducats!

Fake Pieces of Eight!

They're not even from the right time period!

Ugh, boo-hoo.

So what?

It's classic drama!

But you can't prove any of this.

Heh, I'm too smart to ever be caught!

Maybe we can get your loyal viewers to weigh in on that.

We caught all that on Fish-Cam!

( sighs )

Making a phony documentary about a phony treasure is fraud,

Devil Daniels!

So we're delivering a phony treasure hunter

to the authorities!

Now that's...

...a happy ending!

Ahhhh!

The smell of home!

Heh-hee!

I've re-claimed the Orca

and I've rescued enough Viking treasure

to buy ten of those fancy subs!

Hah-hah-haaaaaaahhhh!

Um... actually, you don't.

What?

You're not going to like this, Dad.

( gasps )
