Summary[]
The Octonauts see a strange creature floating by the Octopod - a giant siphonophore. Kwazii and Dashi go after it in the Gup-E to try to get pictures of it, but they crash land on an underwater geyser. They abandon the ship just as it's blown away. But they get caught by the siphonophore as it tries to eat them! Suddenly, another underwater geyser blasts the siphonophore and the tentacle-bound Kwazii and Dashi towards the surface. The Octonauts have to stop its ascent before it gets too high, which will make it burst, due to the lesser amount of water pressing down on the siphonophore.
