The ocean liner SS Britannic is in the middle of a voyage in the North Atlantic with 1200 passengers on board when an unidentified person with an Irish accent styling himself as "Juggernaut" claims to have placed seven drums of amatol (high explosive) aboard the ship which are timed to explode and sink it at dawn on the following day. As an indication of his seriousness he then sets off a demonstration attack with a series of small bombs on the ship's bridge, which injure one crewman.
