However, CIA agent XK150, Sparks Moran (Edward Wain a.k.a. Robert Towne) has infiltrated the gang. Capeto plans to steal the money and claim that the mythical "Creature from the Haunted Sea" rose up out of the sea and devoured the loyalists. But what he doesn't know is that there is a real sea monster lurking in the very waters where he plans to kill his passengers. Little does he know that the actual creature may make his plan all too easy to pull off! When the creature upsets his plans, Capeto decides to sink his boat in 30 feet of water and then retrieve the treasure at a later time.
