Ocean Girl

Neri is a young girl with an affinity for water, super-human strength, the ability to swim long distances, and super-human lung capacity. She lives alone on an otherwise deserted island. Early in the first season, she befriends two Australian boys named Jason and Brett Bates. This friendship is a highly guarded secret at first due to her fear of other humans. Jason and Brett live in an elaborate underwater research and environmental protection facility called ORCA (the Oceanic Research Center of Australia), located near Port Douglas, Queensland. At the beginning of the series, their mother, Diane, has been assigned to ORCA to study whale song in the hopes of facilitating cross-species communication. A significant portion of the series takes place on ORCA itself, and looks at the activities of its inhabitants, which includes the children of the resident scientists, such as Jason and Brett.

Operation Sphinx

25 mins

Brett and Jason are out testing a new diving suit when Jason encounters a strange bright light deep underwater. Spooked, the brothers quickly leave and head off to see Neri on her island. Back on ORCA, Winston is puzzled by a magnetic anomaly on his scans of the ocean floor. Even more strange is that the anomaly is in the shape of a perfect square. Dianne announces to the boys that she is thinking of pursuing the vacant position of ORCA Commander. Jason matches the location of Winston's magnetic anomaly to where he saw the strange lights. Neri is also intrigued by the region prompting a closer investigation of the site. Neri swims out to the location with Jason and Winston following in the Minifin, ORCA's new submarine. What they find surprises everyone - a huge underwater pyramid. Meanwhile, at the headquarters of Praxis (Preventative Response And eXtraterritorial Intelligence Service), agents Jake Shelby and Elly Hauser are dispatched to Egypt where reports suggest signals from outerspace are being received. In Egypt, Professor Malakat and his young assistant continue their search for the underwater entrance to the Pyramid of Mystery.
