Six months later, Kailani and Gabato are well off, as he runs the most popular tourist attraction on Palau – tours aboard the Nautilus. ![]() As they clear the dangers, Kailani kisses Sean for his bravery. Gabato pilots the submarine out of harm's way while Hank and Sean fire torpedoes into the path of falling debris. Sean and Hank arrive in Nautilus just in time to rescue the others from the water. As they near Poseidon's Cliffs, the volcano erupts. Kailani and Alexander find Gabato and convince him to escape with them instead of trying for the volcano. The 140-year-old batteries have run down, so they engineer a way to start the submarine with the eel's electricity. To reach Nautilus ' underwater cave, Sean and Hank create makeshift oxygen tanks and dive down fifty feet, but are nearly killed by a giant electric moray eel. While Alexander and Kailani go after him, Sean and Hank head for Poseidon's Cliffs. Gabato is missing, having gone toward the island's volcano in search of gold.

He has a working radio, but due to the positioning of the satellite, it will be two weeks before they can call out. He takes them to a hut he built from the wreckage of the ship that brought him to the island. They nearly get eaten, but are saved by Alexander. After coming across an egg clutch, Gabato accidentally wakes up a giant frilled lizard, which chases them throughout the jungle. Moving inland, they are shocked to discover miniature elephants (which belong to a prehistoric species, the Dwarf sicilian elephant) and giant butterflies. The helicopter gets caught in a cyclone and they crash into the Pacific, waking up on the island. In Palau, Hank reluctantly hires helicopter tourism guide Gabato and his daughter Kailani (on whom Sean develops an immediate crush) to fly to the coordinates, as they are the only ones willing to take them. Hoping to prove to Sean that there is no mysterious island there, Hank agrees to take him to where the coordiantes point to. Using the books' individual maps, Hank uses a backlight to make them a single island, complete with the coordinates to its location. Wanting to bond with Sean, his new stepfather Hank Parsons helps decipher the code, which leads to three books: Treasure Island, Gulliver's Travels, and Jules Verne's Mysterious Island. Four years after his adventure in the center of the earth, 17-year-old Sean Anderson is arrested by the police for breaking into a satellite control center in hopes of enhancing a coded signal that could have been sent by his long-missing grandfather, Alexander Anderson.
