Synopsis:
Captain Zeb Jones visits a sideshow attraction featuring an obviously fake sea elephant. He decides to get into the sideshow business himself and soon has a live mermaid on display. The owners of the rival sideshow try to kidnap the girl. Aquaman rescues her, apprehends the kidnappers and advises Jones to stop his sideshow business.
