that just provides an episode for our Torchship Explorers show. Captain Laser has to go help some ice miners working to set up a portal farm on the bottom of the European ocean, when their drills keep getting attacked, and the crew has to learn to communicate with the squids and figure out how to stop the miners from just going "fuck it" and poisoning the whole ocean.
