Later, the Calico Crew gets wind of the incident and they head to the site to investigate. The next morning, the crew notices the Water is carrying electrical charges. Quinn and Brock are submerged underwater inside of the Calico's Bathysphere to get a closer look when they are attacked by a Giant Blue Monster emitting an Electrical Glow.
