The Triangle
While chasing a whaler, the Greenpeace boat sinks with the vessel, pulled by a mysterious force underwater and only Meeno Paloma survives. Meanwhile, after the disappearance of six ships in the Bermuda Triangle in one year, the millionaire owner of the Mineral Shipping Lines Eric Benerall hires the skeptical journalist of The Observer Howard Thomas; the scientist Bruce Geller; the offshore engineer Emily Patterson and the psychic Stan Lathem to investigate the reasons for the phenomenon in the area. If the team succeeds in their quest for the truth, each one would receive five million dollars. They find a high-tech underwater facility from the Navy, and each one of them has glimpses of alternative reality after their discovery. They conclude that the experiment conducted by the Navy is affecting the electromagnetic balance of the ocean, while trying to find a way to close the dimensional tear opened by the Philadelphia Experiment. But they believe that the procedure actually will open the Pandora Box and destroy the world.

The team manages to convince Benerall that a secret Navy experiment is behind the anomalies in the Triangle. Benerall gets his friend, the Secretary of the Navy, to explain everything. It turns out that the anomalies are the direct consequence of the Philadelphia experiment and that the Secretary himself will conduct a secret Navy operation in the Bermuda Triangle to finally close the expanding space-time tear left by the experiment in 1943. All the team has to do is wait out the rest of the day for the operation to complete and everything will be fine again. With the job now seemingly done, the team returns home to rest but as particularly bad weather hits Miami, they all become uneasy about the outcome. Meeno contacts Howard to discuss his recent problems, Emily is visited by her mother from the alternate timeline, Stan gets an especially bad feeling about the situation and Bruce sees the data that his students have collected about the Triangle phenomena which shows that the Navy is wrong and that, inadvertently, their experiment could possibly cause all matter on Earth to breakdown. Meeno joins the team in their attempt to try and stop the Secretary's experiment before it's too late.
