01:16Try again! Keep sending that distress call!
01:19It's no good!
01:21Whoever's attacking us is jamming the radio!
01:24Who wanna attack an orbital drilling rig?
01:26Emergency shutdown! Stop the pumps!
01:28Abandon the drilling platform!
01:29All personnel evacuate at once!
01:31Have you ever met at once?!
01:34Emergency shutdown! Stop the pumps!
01:46Abandon the drilling platform!
01:48All personnel, evacuate at once!
01:56What in the...
01:58Get us out of here!
02:04Leaving so soon.
02:07Such a pity you cannot stay to witness the greatest ocean disaster the Earth has ever seen.
02:19Enough!
02:21Do not destroy the oil rig, yet.
02:24Find the control room.
02:26Restart the pumps.
02:28Release the oil, but slowly.
02:32I want to watch the ocean bleed black.
02:42Another oil spill.
02:47Again, the creatures of the sea are in danger.
02:57Hold tight, my friends of the sea.
02:59Hold tight, my friends of the sea.
03:02Now, open the storage tank valves.
03:16Release the rest of the oil.
03:18The trap is nearly set, and when the bait is taken, the Earth will be in my hands.
03:26No, Ming.
03:28The only thing you'll have in your hands is a white flag of surrender.
03:42Very good.
03:43Stay and play your games.
03:45I have more important work elsewhere.
03:48Now, there's something you don't see every day.
03:53Ming the Merciless running from a fight?
03:55Squadron of Robo-ships, three o'clock.
04:05Flash, look below.
04:10We've got to get down there and stop them from spilling any more oil.
04:14Leave that to me.
04:33The main heating unit is filled with hot water.
04:36Good work, Phantom Old Buddy.
05:00That's the end of the robots and fires, but not this oil spill.
05:04Now, why would Ming want to do this?
05:12I thought he wanted to rule the Earth, not destroy it.
05:16I've already called Dynak to alert the authorities, but...
05:18Yes, I hope we're not too late.
05:21Father, look!
05:22Jella, your telepathic power.
05:24Warn the other fish away.
05:26I call upon all in the sea.
05:29Hear me.
05:30Father, something strange is happening.
05:33They hear only the voice of someone else.
05:36A man.
05:37And he...
05:38He is already warning them.
05:43Friends of the sea,
05:44there is great danger.
05:47Beware of man's black death.
05:49Go!
05:50Go from here!
05:51You?
05:59Phantom, you know that guy?
06:03Dr. Maurice Gorham,
06:05the world's foremost marine biologist.
06:07Emergency!
06:08Emergency!
06:09Second giant oil disaster.
06:11Location, North Sea.
06:13Return to monitor immediately.
06:15Another one?
06:16But, Oceanus is protected by powerful security devices.
06:25It is covered with traps.
06:28My lord, me.
06:30No one can enter unless Dr. Karam allows it.
06:35Octon, there is no cause for concern.
06:38Dr. Karam will not attack me.
06:41But he will give me his telepathy transmission device.
06:44He will gladly give me what I want.
06:53You are invading the city of Oceanus.
06:57Leave now, or be destroyed.
07:00This I do alone.
07:02Leave!
07:02Leave at once!
07:03This is your final warning.
07:08But I need your help.
07:10Humanity needs your help.
07:12The oceans face total destruction.
07:17I bring you the proof.
07:21Of course, if you do not wish to save the seas from certain death...
07:27I will grant you ten minutes.
07:35That is far enough.
07:39Forward, I shall stay behind you.
07:41As you wish, Doctor.
07:44As the recent series of oil disasters tragically proves...
07:48...the oceans of the world are doomed within less than one year.
07:56If only mankind had listened while there was still time!
08:00But there is time.
08:01You're a telepathic transmitter.
08:03Yes?
08:04With my guidance, you could use it to make the sea creatures...
08:08...rulers of the oceans once more.
08:10Together, we could save humanity from itself.
08:15I...
08:16...have always feared it would come to this.
08:18But I...
08:19...I must help you.
08:20Your friends of the ocean shall rise up...
08:23...and drive mankind from the seas.
08:29Hold on the nets!
08:39Sharks!
08:40Did they roll around us?
08:45They're ramming the boat!
08:57The town council's complaining again about our dumping waste into the sea.
09:01Who are they kidding?
09:02If it weren't for us, there'd be no town or town council.
09:06I don't believe it.
09:08Emergency!
09:09All systems malfunctioning!
09:11The entire disposal system is clogged with fish!
09:14All of the follicle chemicals!
09:15They'll explode!
09:16Evacuate the premises at once!
09:18Evacuate the premises at once!
09:31Another emergency?
09:33Dynak, what is it this time?
09:34Dynak, give us a report!
09:35Fish are attacking on and offshore facilities all over the world.
09:40Every variety of sea life, even those that are natural enemies, are attacking man's technology.
09:45Flash, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
09:48Exactly, Mandrake!
09:49Phantom's friend!
09:51Dr. Karam, perhaps I should pay his one-man city a visit.
09:56Alert!
09:57All sea life in Sector 14 is approaching this experimental underwater food farm.
10:01Those people are fish bait!
10:03Kashin, LJ, Zup, hold down the fort!
10:06The rest of you, let's go!
10:11Underwater farm must be evacuated.
10:14Computations indicate you will not win a fight against the fish.
10:17Oh, that's it!
10:18Build up my self-confidence!
10:19We are still a half mile away from the food farm!
10:20Yeah?
