00:56Lassies
00:57What a beautiful sunrise
01:09It looks like it's going to be a nice day
01:11It's going to be a long day
01:15I'm not used to getting up this early
01:17Neither Lassie and Toothless
01:19I have to admit it's not easy to get up at the crack of dawn when you're not used to it
01:24But the Navy believes in getting an early start
01:27Especially today
01:28There's a lot of work to be done before the Aquabase is launched this morning
01:31Speaking of the Aquabase
01:33There it is now
01:34Wow
01:35The Navy ship we trained on looked nothing like this
01:38Yeah
01:39Looks more like a spaceship to me
01:41It is a spaceship of sorts, Susan
01:44Except that the space it travels in is filled with seawater rather than stars
01:48Navy, this is rescue one
01:50Request permission to land
01:51Permission granted, rescue one
01:53Wind is west-northwest at 12 knots
01:55Roger
01:56Everybody to your seats and belt up
01:58We're going down
01:59Welcome aboard
02:03We're honored to have you all join us
02:06I never thought I'd get to meet Lassie and the rescue rangers in person
02:11And we never thought we'd be taking part in such an exciting experiment as the Aquabase project
02:20Right, Lassie?
02:20Well, I can see you're all ready and raring to go, so let's get underway
02:27That should be the last of the supplies for Aquabase
02:36Ah, I see you're all ready to go
02:40Yes, sir
02:41And the animals should be ready in a minute
02:43We're all really looking forward to this
02:45It's not every day we get to take part in an exciting experiment like this
02:49I assure you, it's not every day that the Navy launches a craft like the Aquabase
02:54Especially with young people and animals as part of the crew
02:57We expect to learn a great deal
03:01I'm sure we'll all learn a lot
03:03In fact, I'm going to write a school report about our voyage
03:06Captain, the animals are ready
03:08Excellent! Excellent!
03:10Now I've seen it all
03:11Lassie and Toothless and wetsuits
03:14But where's Fastback's wetsuit?
03:16Nature provided Fastback with a better diving suit than we could come up with, Susan
03:20But we did rig up an air supply system that gives him the same underwater capabilities as everyone else in the crew
03:26Attention all Aquabase crew members
03:29Report to your stations
03:31That means us
03:32Goodbye, Mom
03:33See you in a couple days
03:35Attention all heads
03:37This is your captain speaking
03:39Prepare to dive
03:41Main hatch secured
03:44Sonar on and operating
03:46All pressure systems okay
03:48Don't worry, Lassie
03:52There'll be plenty for you animals to do once we're underway
03:55Control, this is Aquabase
03:58This is Control
03:59Go ahead, Aquabase
04:01Ben, we're ready to dive
04:03Roger, Captain
04:04Everything is go here
04:06Ben, we're taking it down
04:07Dive
04:09This is just as smooth as riding in an elevator
04:18Right
04:19Except that we don't get off until we reach the basement
04:22Depth approaching 100 feet
04:25Health pressure and internal pressure stabilized
04:27All systems check out and their rate of descent is steady
04:30Aquabase, you're looking good here
04:36I want to jot down a few of my impressions
04:47But so much is happening
04:49I hardly know where to start
04:51I sure can understand your problem, Jackie
04:53It's hard to describe a world as fantastic as this
04:58I'll say
04:59What's the matter, Lassie?
05:04See a catfish out there?
05:08There seem to be several large objects swimming alongside the Aquabase's stern
05:13I don't think it's anything to get alarmed about, Laura
05:15Probably just playful fish
05:18Lassie, calm down
05:27Everything's going fine
05:29Except that for some reason our descent speed is increasing
05:32That shouldn't be
05:34Captain, the controls don't work
05:39Aquabase, our instruments show you descending at a faster rate now
05:52Please advise
05:53Ben
05:57We seem to have a control malfunction of some sort
06:00We're attempting to rectify the situation
06:03And we'll keep you posted
06:04Roger, Captain
06:06Jackie, reverse all engines
06:08Reverse all engines
06:09It's no use
06:18Without the controls, we have no way of maintaining a stable attitude
06:22All engines stop
06:24All engines stop
06:26How's it going, Captain?
06:30I'm afraid
06:31We're going to have to abandon ship
06:33Abandon ship?
06:35That's right
06:35This boat's not going to stop until it reaches bottom
06:39And that's a long way down from here
06:41Captain, we're ready to eject
06:47Ejection sequence is started
06:50Gosh, it's a long way up
06:58Yeah, we went pretty deep in a very short time
07:00Just remember
07:02Not to rise any faster
07:04Than your air bubbles
07:05And we should have no problems
07:07You hear that, Lassie?
07:09You and Toothless stick with us
07:11Attention all hands
07:25The Aquabase crew has abandoned ship
07:28Stand by to help them aboard when they surface
07:30Are they going to be all right, Dad?
07:33They went pretty deep, Ben
07:34But the Captain knows what he's doing
07:35So there shouldn't be any problems
07:36I'm sure it's most frightening for the animals
07:39They've had very little underwater training
07:41How's everybody doing?
07:44Fine so far, Captain
07:45What is it, Lassie?
07:50She's probably worried about Toothless
07:52And so am I
07:54He's drifting pretty far from the group
07:56Toothless, come here
07:58I'm Tossus
07:59I'll go get him
08:01What in the world?
08:07Hey, what's the big idea?
08:13Who are you?
08:14Save your breath, kid
08:15Your friends can't hear you now
08:17So behave yourself and come with us
08:19They should be breaking surface any second now
08:21And there they are
08:22Wow, what a relief
08:24Aquabase crew has surfaced
08:27Begin recovery procedures immediately
08:29After you
08:32Come in
08:37Well, what do we have here?
08:43One of the Aquabase crew
08:44They all ejected after the accident
08:47But he came snooping around our boat
08:50Ah, what's your name, boy?
08:53Jackie Turner
08:53What's yours?
08:55You are nosy, aren't you?
08:57No matter, I'll tell you who I am
08:58You see this?
09:00It looks sort of like the Aquabase
09:02Except that it's twice the boat the Aquabase will ever be
09:05I know, I invented this, Beauty
09:07But that stupid name, you rejected my design
09:10Oh, now this is all starting to make sense
09:14That accident we had wasn't really an accident, was it?
09:18I don't understand it
09:19Jackie was right behind Toothless the last time I saw him
09:22Yeah
09:22I don't know what could have happened
09:24He may have become entangled in the coral
09:26I figure his air supplies
09:29Good for another two hours
09:31If he's still underwater
09:33Laura, what do you mean?
09:34I mean, I don't think those objects trailing the Aquabase were fish
09:38And I think they had something to do with Jackie's disappearance
09:41So, in answer to your question
09:44No
09:45What happened to the Aquabase was not an accident
09:47You're evil
09:49And you're going to pay for this
09:51On the contrary, my dear boy
09:53I'll benefit from it
09:55What are you talking about?
09:56Simply that the Aquabase is sunk so deep
09:59It can't be recovered
10:00And instead of building another Aquabase
10:03That may also sink
10:05The Navy is sure to reconsider my design now
10:09You'll never get away with this
10:10Oh, won't I?
10:15Keep your eyes open, Susan
10:16If you see anything out of the ordinary
10:18Anything at all
10:19Yell
10:20Roger, Mom
10:21Gene Fox and I are going back into the water
10:23To see if we can locate Jackie
10:25Please look real hard, Gene Fox
10:28Jackie is the only brother I have
10:30I promise you I'll do my best, Ben
10:32You want to help, too, don't you, girl?
10:36Lassie, stay
10:37I think you can be of more help here
10:40Okay, Gene Fox
10:44Let's move out
10:46Dad, what can we do to help?
10:48If we could figure out a way to raise that Aquabase
10:50We might find some clues to what happened
10:52But I'm afraid it's just too deep for any man to go after
10:56Dad, suppose an animal went after it
11:02That's it
11:03Lassie, you and Toothless are geniuses
11:07Fastback
11:10If you can clip our recovery cable under that Aquabase
11:14You'll be a Navy hero
11:15Good luck, Fastback
11:16Fastback
11:16Okay, lower away
11:18Hey, what are you writing there?
11:30If you must know
11:32I'm keeping a journal of everything that happens today
11:35So I can make a report to my class
11:37Well, don't look now, young man
11:40But you may be a wee bit late for school tomorrow
11:44Oh, no, I won't
11:45I'll bet the whole U.S. Navy is looking for me right now
11:49You don't seem to realize that the Navy is no match for J.W. Smithers
11:55See anything yet, Susan?
12:02Not a thing, Mom
12:03But let's keep looking
12:04This old ship is where we started, Captain
12:09And we've turned up a big zero
12:11I'm afraid so, Gene Fox
12:13And now our air is running low
12:15We'd better start back up
12:17Fastback's nearing the Aquabase now
12:22Pulse and respiration are still normal
12:25Come on, Fastback
12:27Ben, he made it
12:35He reached the Aquabase
12:37Way to go, Fastback
12:39Now, if he can just attach the recovery cable
12:42What's the matter with you two?
12:54You act worried
12:54Is something wrong, Ben?
12:56I have a feeling something's wrong with Fastback, Dad
12:59And Lassie and Toothless can sense it
13:01Fastback's been down there an awful lot
13:24It's been a long time now
13:25I hope he's okay
13:27You sure don't seem very worried about it, Lassie
13:32That's it! Fastback did it!
13:39Attention, all hands
13:40The recovery cable has been secured
13:42Hoist away!
13:46Well, Lassie, I guess you knew what you were barking about
13:49Now we can only figure out what happened to Jackie
13:52Susan and I covered a three-mile radius from this ship
13:59And found absolutely no sign of Jackie
14:01I'm afraid we had no better luck, Mrs. Tennant
14:04So what is our next step?
14:06We have to find Jackie
14:07And quickly
14:08Dad, here comes the Aquabase
14:12Good
14:13Let's hope it'll provide us with some clue to Jackie's whereabouts
14:16Fastback, you're an amazing turtle
14:22I'll say he did a great job
14:25And all by himself
14:26Wait a minute
14:27It looks like he might have had some help
14:29A porpoise
14:30What a beautiful animal
14:32And quite a smart animal, too, Mrs. Turner
14:35Some scientists believe that porpoises actually have a language of their own
14:40Listen, it sounds like he's trying to talk to us
14:47If he is, I'm afraid Lassie is the only one who understands
14:50Lassie! Toothless! Where are you going?
14:58If I wasn't watching this with my own eyes
15:02I never would have believed it
15:04You two want to go back into the water?
15:06But why?
15:07I've got a strong hunch that porpoise knows where Jackie is
15:10You mean he's still somewhere underwater?
15:15It sounds crazy, but it's the only lead we've got
15:19So, let's go!
15:22That porpoise really seems to know where he's going
15:29I'll say
15:30But if he keeps up this pace much longer
15:33I'm afraid he's going to wear us all out
15:35They seem to be headed straight towards some large coral formations
15:41This is getting stranger by the minute
15:48Lassie, wait!
15:50Be careful
15:53This coral is sharp as a razor
15:55Wow! A submarine!
15:58What's it doing here?
15:59That's what I'd like to know
16:01Due to the Aquabase test, these waters were declared off-limits to all crabs
16:06Look, there are the animals
16:07And from the way they're acting, I'd say that Jackie is inside
16:10Yes!
16:14What is it?
16:16Mr. Smithers, there are strange sounds coming from the conning tower
16:19Shall we investigate?
16:21What kind of sounds?
16:22Well, sort of like a dog scratching on a door
16:26Lassie!
16:28A dog scratching?
16:30Are you sure you're feeling all right?
16:32I know it sounds crazy, sir, but
16:33My! What a well-mannered dog!
16:37Now he's knocking!
16:40You incompetent!
16:41We've been discovered!
16:42Start all engines immediately!
16:44Yes, sir
16:45Right away
16:46Looks like nobody's home
16:50Or at least that's what they'd like us to think
16:52The sub's moving!
16:57Everybody get clear!
16:59But Jackie's in there!
17:00I know he is!
17:01Captain, we can't let them get away!
17:03Control, this is the captain speaking
17:05We've located a submarine down here
17:08And we believe Jackie's aboard!
17:11Jackie?
17:12Oh, thank goodness!
17:13But the sub won't respond to us
17:15And now it's getting underway
17:16We'll stay with it as long as we can
17:19But we need help!
17:20We're working as fast as we can
17:22To repair the aqua base, Captain
17:23But it's going to take time
17:25Hey, what's going on?
17:27This boat's turning right towards that coral
17:29You're absolutely right!
17:31Quick, everybody!
17:32Duck!
17:32And keep your heads down!
17:37Okay, the coast is clear!
17:39What on earth are they trying to do?
17:41They're trying to give us the brush
17:43And they almost succeeded
17:45Sir, those guys are still hanging on
17:47Then try again!
17:49And this time do it right!
17:50Yes, sir
17:51Uh-oh!
17:53Here we go again!
18:00This time they're really cutting it close
18:02Too close
18:03Everybody away from the boat!
18:13Something's happened to the controls
18:14I can't steer the boat
18:15They misjudged
18:19And ripped off their bow plane
18:21Captain, Jackie's in there
18:23We've got to do something
18:25And we better do it fast
18:26Because that sub's out of control
18:28Aqua base
18:32Repairs have been completed
18:33You are cleared to submerge
18:35Roger, Laura
18:36Hang on, Ben
18:38We're taking her down
18:39Isn't there anything you can do
18:49To stop our descent?
18:51I'm trying, sir
18:52But nothing seems to work
18:53Hold this course, Dad
18:54It sounds like we're homing in
18:56On Lassie and the others
18:58Steady as she goes, Ben
19:00There they are
19:04Right on the button
19:06We're bringing the captain
19:08And the youngsters on board now, Laura
19:09They're all fine
19:11Roger, Ben
19:12I have a fix on the sub
19:13And it seems to be headed for the bottom
19:15You'd better hurry
19:16We've got to figure out a way
19:21To bring this boat back up
19:22It's not designed
19:23To withstand this much pressure
19:25See what I mean?
19:29Gosh
19:29We've sprung a leak
19:31There's only one way
19:33We can reach that sub in time
19:34Ben
19:35Give me full power
19:37Full power
19:38On
19:40We did it
19:49We caught up with them
19:50But how are we going to get them out of there?
19:52They're too deep to use scuba gear
19:54First we have to try to stop their dive
19:57Ben
19:58Deploy the magnetic grapples
20:00Roger
20:01Full reverse power
20:05Full reverse power
20:07What's going on?
20:11We've stopped sinking
20:12I don't know, sir
20:13I didn't do a thing
20:14No, but I'll bet the rescue rangers did
20:17This is Aquabase
20:21We've lived up with the sub
20:23And are bringing the passengers aboard now
20:26What about Jackie?
20:27Is he okay?
20:28Hi, Mom
20:29Don't worry
20:30I'm fine
20:31Oh, thank goodness
20:33And Mr. Smith is here
20:35He's fine, too
20:36Thanks to the Aquabase
20:38That he tried to destroy
20:39Yes
20:40Thanks to the help of you rescue rangers
20:42I think we proved the Aquabase
20:45To be a success
20:47Say, Jackie
20:50You must have gotten all kinds of notes
20:53For your class paper, huh?
20:54Yes
20:55But I don't think I'm going to use them
20:57Why not, Jackie?
20:58It'll make a fantastic story
21:00That's just it
21:02It's so fantastic
21:03I don't think anybody will believe it
21:05Lassie's rescue rangers
21:16Lassie's rescue rangers
21:17Lassie's lassie
