Months of genetic engineering,

An itsy bitsy, teeny

is transformed into a
slathering carnivore.

The cause of basic
scientific research

will long be
indebted to you, sir.

You are a genius, Mr.. Schubert.

You got half of that right.

Do you really think I'm
doing this for the cause

of basic scientific research?

What other purpose
could you have?

What other purpose?

To replenish my depleted
coffers, that's what purpose.

Are you saying you're
running short of money?

Even the wealthiest of
men can find his cash flow

reduced to a trickle
upon occasion.

And poobah is going
to correct that, sir?

With any kind of luck, yeah.

It's a petty scheme
of extortion,

quite beneath the high level of
my usual earthshaking deeds.

But then mothers and
necessity and all of that.

Extortion?

You're going to sic poobah

on some unsuspecting beachfront?

That unsuspecting
beachfront community.

Borrom's landing.

Quaint, isn't it?

Sail boats, surf and white sand.

Excuse me, Mr. Schubert
but if you're going to extort

money from the resort,

wouldn't a shark be
more appropriate?

It's been done, Brent.

It's been done.

What the city fathers
here at borrom's landing

hope will be the first in
an annual completion,

the 38 mile long distance
swim, to Alonzo island and back,

will begin this weekend.

Oh, I've done it again.

Just a minute, I've gotta
check the book here.

All right.

I think I did it
again, let's see.

It's international
after annual, isn't it?

Okay, I'm sorry.

Let's take it
again from the top.

And, by the way,

I want to get with Crawford
over there because if those

third world athletes
have some hocus pocus...

I know that it was all agreed
to beforehand, Mr.. Crawford.

Good morning, good morning.

But that was before we replaced
Jim buckey with burkham warey.

Mr. Dashi, if I shift
your country's position

in the starting line-up,

then I have to
shuffle everybody.

Now I think we're
a little beyond

that now, don't you?

Yes, but you see,
unlike Jim buckey,

burkham warey is left-handed.

Therefore it becomes essential
for him to be on the right side

of everyone else if he
is to perform at his best.

And, need I remind you sir,
your state department has given

us their promise
complete cooperation.

Um, just let me see... uh,

now maybe, just maybe,

George yen would trade
starting positions with you.

How would that be?

Uh, that would be most
appreciated sir, if he agrees.

Otherwise, sahib,
there will be trouble

and trouble is the
last thing you need

at such a complex
international undertaking.

Mr. Crawford, something
is happening to that boat!

Look, I think it is a shark!

Now that's impossible,

Well something is attacking
that boat from under the water.

Help, help, help!

Well, I think we got
their attention now.

You'd better call poobah back

Yes sir.

I thought you were at
borrom's landing, c.W.,

the long-distance
swimming competition.

Which might be
having shark problems.

Cw said something attacked
one of the pleasure boats

in the basin.

Something?

Well, it could not
have been a shark cw.

They're not comfortable in
the water at borrom's landing.

It had to be a
shark, a stray maybe.

Or a killer whale.

Excuse me, but why
does it have to be a shark

or a killer whale?

Because the alternative is
too incredible to be plausible.

The girl whose boat was wrecked
claims that it was torn apart

by a giant jellyfish.

Well, some of them can
grow to be quite large.

There is one almost
six feet around.

Mm-hmm, the cyanea.

But it's not native here.

And she insists the creature
was ten feet in diameter,

at least.

Perhaps what she saw
was a school of jellyfish.

Or a Portuguese man o' war.

That's it!

Now the next thing we
need are the newspapers

I asked you to get.
- Newspapers, yes.

Ten copies of the
st Louis sentinel,

the news of London,
the wall street dispatch.

And the scissors?

Scissors, mucilage.

You could have
cut up the local daily

It would have been much
less expensive in view of your

current financial situation.

foreign policy points
on this contest.

And I'd like to know if
it's safe to send swimmers

Excuse me, Mr. Crawford?

The people at the contest
sent this letter over for you.

It's marked urgent.

Well, thank you.

those diplomats again.

They're coming
out of the woodwork

already on this thing.

Did they say who sent this over?

No sir.

Look at this, will you?

What does that

of the letter mean, Elizabeth?

A trident?

Instead of Napoleon, this guy

thinks that he's king Neptune.

"no further encroachment
on my kingdom

without due tribute
will be tolerated."

maybe it's a crank?

Or maybe it's somebody
out to wreck the contest.

Do you know how
long it took to get

these countries

Can you imagine
the repercussions

any of their people here?
