Two treasure divers capture the creature and take it to London, where it is put on display in a circus. A scientist warns that the creature is only an infant — and that a full-grown specimen would be over 200 feet tall. Sure enough, Papa Gorgo comes thundering ashore to reclaim his offspring, trashing a generous portion of London in the process.
