Having survived being riddled with bullets at the end of the first film, the Gillman is captured by men sent by the Ocean Harbor Oceanarium in Florida, where he is put on display so he can be studied by animal psychologist Professor Clete Ferguson and icthyology student Helen Dobson. Helen and Clete quickly begin to fall in love, much to the chagrin of Joe Hayes, the Gillman's keeper. The Gillman takes an instant liking to Helen (as he did to Kay in the first film), with severely hampers Professor Ferguson's efforts to communicate with him. Ultimately, the Gillman escapes from the tank, in the process killing Joe, and flees to the open ocean. Unable to stop thinking about Helen, however, he soon begins to stalk her and Ferguson, ultimately abducting her from a seaside restaurant where the two are partying. Clete tries to give chase but the Gillman escapes to the water with his captive. Clete and the local law enforcement must now try to track down Helen and her amphibious abductor.
