In the process, the Antareans rent a home with a pool, charge the pool with a special life force to be used to rejuvenate their cocooned brethren, and then they hire out a boat to help them find Atlantis and rescue those left behind.
Eventually, the captain of the chartered boat, Jack (played by Guttenberg), realizes they are aliens, but agrees to help them anyway after they explain their plight.

A few elderly residents in the area, who like to swim, quickly realize the youthful power of the water, and begin a fountain of youth physical transformation.

However, the Antareans to offer a few of the old folks a chance to travel to Antarea with them and live forever, and a number of them take the Antareans up on their offer.
