Pierre Aronnax, Conseil, and Ned Land find themselves "guests" on board an extraordinary vessel, the Nautilus. The trios' underwater adventures continue as they experience an awe-inspiring phosphorescent "forest" of jellyfish. Later, they are forced to live out one of the conditions of their imprisonment. Aronnax, Conseil and Ned are confined to their quarters in total darkness. Following their imprisonment, Aronnax is called upon to perform surgery upon an injured "sailor" and, unable to save his life, begins to wonder what Nemo really is up to. Jim Fleming reads.
