Tom shrugged and ran his fingers through his hair, while his forehead puckered in a worried frown. “For the moment I’m stumped, pal. But I’d better come up with an answer fast, or our whole project here will be stopped cold!”

Returning to the Sea Hound, Tom worked on the problem steadily for several hours, not even pausing for the evening meal. At midnight Bud and Doc Simpson found him slumped over his desk in his tiny laboratory compartment.

Elated by the simple solution, Tom leaped from his bunk and began to dress.

“Hi, Doc!” he exclaimed with a grin a moment later as the medic walked into the compartment. “Guess I conked out last night, but I feel fine!”

“That’s good. You’ll need to be in sound shape to take the news I have,” Doc Simpson replied. “The sub bringing the extra repelatron has just arrived. We found a mysterious stowaway aboard!”
