Elizabeth Ryan and Richard Howden are super-rich and notoriously tempestuous actors. Elizabeth throws her million-dollar ring off the boat in a huff and Primus dives to it when Richard says he'll give $100,000 to charity for the effort. But a shark stops his attempt and Primus has the captain mark the spot. News of the ring's fate has reached shore and other fortune hunters show up. Primus battes them and a really big shark (which he blows up) and snags the ring, a fake and Elizabeth had known all along. Richard throws her into the water but all is forgiven in the final panel.
