With his friends and allies by his side, Aquaman defeats Ocean Master and Mera is freed from Lernaea's clutches.

Aquaman and Mera are then reunited with Princess Andy, but when a new threat seems to arise, it turns out to be a ruse created by Aquaman to bring in all their friends to be there to surprise Mera with an impromptu wedding.
