The story of SPLASH begins in 1959, when an adolescent mermaid rescues young Allen Bauer from a watery grave off of Cape Cod. Twenty-five years later, the boy has grown up, and, upon returning to the cape, he once again manages to fall into the sea and is rescued once more by the mermaid. She decides to travel to New York to search for Allen. On dry land, the mermaid is able to walk about on legs; any contact with salt water, and she reverts to her half-fish form. Adopting the name of Madison from a New York street sign, the girl manages to win Allen’s heart. Alas, a secret government lab captures Madison for research purposes – and possible vivisection. Egged on by his brother, Allen rescues his beloved, joining her in the ocean depths as a merman.
