Synopsis
The floor of Scrooge's Money Bin breaks through and most of the money slides through a cavern and out to sea, coming to rest many fathoms beneath the surface. Donald and Scrooge go after it in special diving gear, and on the ocean floor they encounter a strange race of duck mermen who are ruled by a mermaid queen. Daisy, fearing that Donald will be seduced, follows him to the bottom.
