You would think that Merly and her mermaids would be safe in Earth's plastic covered oceans but they did have a natural enemy who discovered that they had returned to Earth. His name was Blubber Guts, a grossly overweight inner pentagram devil who had prowled Earth's oceans as a sea serpent long ago. He had found mermaids tasty if they were marinated. Neither Heaven nor the Wilizy had weapons that Winnie could use to defeat Blubber Guts. She'd have to use guile.

Meanwhile, the Wilizy were trying to assist the impoverished island of Cuba. Their plan was to offer the government an upgrade to their obsolete power grid. The new power grid arrived from Japan, closely followed by an army from Cuba's ally, North Korea , who had arrived intent on using the island as a missile base. The entire Wilizy family including their youngsters, guardian angels and Valkyries responded. They used guile too, along with mortars, Star Wars light sabres, bagpipes, and giggling prostitutes managed by a topless madam.

After the battle, Stu and Momaka headed to North Korea to wrap up some loose ends through a meeting with their president. That meeting didn't go well for Esteemed Cow Pie, as Momaka called him. A well-hidden secret was revealed along the way. You'll never guess what it is. No fair skipping to the end of the book.
