From a hidden island base in the South Pacific, the five Tracy brothers pilot remarkable cutting-edge Thunderbird vehicles from the depths of the oceans to the highest reaches of space, all for one purpose: to help those in need.

Gordon rushes in with Thunderbird 4 when a fire on board the rolling factory damages its steering capabilities. With the help of Lady Penelope and Parker on the surface, Gordon must rescue platform operator Ned Tedford and his pet plant Gladys and prevent the rig from spilling its waste.
