It quickly becomes apparent that a massive underground volcanic eruption is the source of these dangerous conditions, and the crew must act quickly to avoid getting trapped in the rapidly rising heat.

Despite their best efforts, the Seaview is eventually caught in the midst of the lava flow, and it's up to Captain Crane to navigate the ship through the dangerous and unpredictable terrain. Along the way, the crew battles a variety of dangerous sea creatures, including giant eels and hulking crustaceans, all while attempting to complete their mission and retrieve the vital weather monitoring equipment.
