Episode 19: The Mermaid
As the Seaview conducts a marine census, Captain Crane spots a mermaid. He brings her aboard and falls under her spell. A sea creature follows the mermaid and proceeds to cause big trouble on the sub. The problems are compounded when the Seaview is ordered to disarm a nuclear device that has been planted off the coast of California.
Episode 23: Doomsday Island
While Nelson and Sharkey search by air for an uncharted island, Seaview brings aboard a gigantic egg from the bottom of the sea during a routine specimen collection. It later hatches a fully grown, orange creature which kills a background guy and tosses Kowalski around the missle room. Nelson returns and (in a very un-urgent manner) has the crew hunt down this grunting thing as it terrorizes the crew. Later, Crane and Kowalski take the flying sub out to investigate the area, crash landing near the uncharted island. Another orange crature (one that speaks and is the leader) captures them and brings them to creature HQ. The monsters are aliens from Scorpious which are trying to hatch millions of eggs. Can the crew stop this invasion before these amphibian aliens take of the Earth?
Episode 18: The Fossil Men
The crew of a lost submarine returns as rock men to menace the Seaview. A new man, Kowalski's friend Richards, is captured on a diving mission and turned into a Fossil Man. Nelson is then ordered to turn command of the Seaview over to these rock men. Will Nelson comply? Will the crew be dipped into the transformation lava to exist as living rock?
Episode 24: The Wax Men
The Seaview is carrying Atlantanean statues in its missile room as a favor for the State Department. As they wait for Captain Crane to return, a midget clown emerges from one of the crates and begins sending forth his animated waxwork duplicates of the crew. Crane's only hope is to try to revive Admiral Nelson and retake the ship. But, can they?

Now, this Heat Monster wants the Seaview to detonate a bomb under the polar ice cap. How can the intrepid crew defeat this new menace?
Episode 25: Deadly Cloud
