The ape men that live there worship the now adult daughter as a "white goddess" but end up sacrificing her and her father to a Tyrannosaurus rex. Luckily Gorgo and his mother arrive and while they battle the T-Rex (as well as two others and a Triceratops), the scientist and the others manage to escape.
