Synopsis:
Aquaman agrees to play severals roles in reenactments of several sea stories for TV. During each scene Aquaman contacts his fish friends for help. The show's host believes Aquaman is showing off instead of following the script. After a gang of smugglers is caught by the Coast Guard, Aquaman reveals that he was temporarily blinded by an explosion. He needed the aid of the fish to protect him. He also didn't want the smugglers to know he was blind. Despite the ruined shows, the host forgives Aquaman.
