synopsis
Aqualad is captured and imprisoned in the orbiting globe commandeered by underwater buccaneer Captain Sly. Actually, Sly isn't all that interested in the "tadpole": he's merely using Aqualad to lure Aquaman into a trap. Though Aquaman manages to rescue his sidekick, he must still fend out Sly's army of motorized reinforcements--to say nothing of the villain's "limpness light ray." But as often happens on this show, Captain Sly ends up hoist on his own petard, courtesy of ever-faithful Tusky.
