The Challengers hit a vibration field that sends them to another dimension, to an island of warriors riding triceratops. Vibrations from the beasts' horns knock the Challengers out and keep the island hidden in a vibration field. They're locked up with Kissinger and condemned. Using electronic gadgets from boot heels, they escape. Prof's gadget also negates the horn vibrations and a fight ensues. Ace pilots their jet through the vibration field back to Florida.
