Synopsis

The Pugad Baboy residents hie off to the beaches of La Union for a vacation, which is rudely interrupted by a band of Taokoy (mermen). The sea creatures take the gang captive for the purpose of scientific study into the anatomy of land-based humans. As Pao, Dagul and the rest of the gang are about to be dissected by the mermen, Polgas arrives in the guise of Aquapol, along with a pack of dogfish. The taokoy were frightened off and the Pugad Baboy residents rescued.
