00:04:08Oh, it was plum off look.

00:04:11Them, you sure that critter wasn't pink?

00:04:14Oh, I told you before, it was sort of gray looking.

00:04:21Well, laugh if you want.

00:04:23But that thing weren't nothing nature put out there.

00:04:26Oh, sir.

00:04:27And it weren't no freak gator neither.

00:04:30I've been poaching this country for 40 years,

00:04:33and I ain't never seen nothing like it.

00:04:36Well, too bad you didn't bring it back.

00:04:38Steve Benton probably paid a fair bounty for whatever it was.

00:04:42Bounty?

00:04:43I wouldn't touch that critter for all the money ever made.

00:04:48And if you seen it, you wouldn't either.

00:04:51You better take it easy on this stuff.

00:04:53You're looking kind of pink it.

00:04:56Oh, I'm going to clean my otter lines out before the morning.

00:05:01Lem, I think that critter's a ghost of one of those otters

00:05:05you've been poaching all these years,

00:05:06coming back to haunt you.

00:05:10Well, if that's so,

00:05:12you fellas will see it right quick yourselves.

00:05:16Oh, sorry.

00:05:30Boy, it's all right.

00:05:32Bye-bye.

00:05:33Bye-bye.

00:05:37Bye-bye.

00:05:38Bye-bye.

00:05:42Bye-bye.

00:05:44Bye-bye.

00:05:45Look, it's not like I want to be mean or anything like that, Liz, baby.

00:06:01But I got a reputation around here.

00:06:04These folks have no respect for a man who lets his woman boss him.

00:06:07Well, next thing I know, they'll be laughing at me.

00:06:09And they'll be telling all the rest of them.

00:06:12Won't you please listen to me, Liz, baby?

00:06:15Liz?

00:06:45I'll be looking at you any way I want, you're my wife.

00:06:54Don't touch me.

00:07:10Who do you think you're talking to?

00:07:12Don't touch me.

00:07:13You're my wife.

00:07:14I'll touch you any time I feel like it.

00:07:15Where are you going?

00:07:28Where are you going?

00:07:31I'm going out.

00:07:34Maybe I'll be back.

00:07:36Maybe I won't.

00:07:37Liz, baby.

00:07:38I don't mean nothing.

00:07:39I don't know.

00:08:09There's a young one in that last trap.

00:08:11I had to kill it.

00:08:11Oh, poor thing.

00:08:13Told you you shouldn't have come along.

00:08:21Well, I can understand hunting an animal, but making it suffer in those traps, it's horrible.

00:08:27Well, these poachers know the swamp's like the back of their hands.

00:08:30But I'll catch one of them in the axe some night and put him away for six months.

00:08:33In the meantime, I'll have to be satisfied confiscating their trap lines.

00:08:37If you lose enough traps, it won't pay them to keep trying.

00:08:39Well, be careful, darling.

00:08:41These people aren't like other folks.

00:08:43You know, they'll try and get back at you.

00:08:45Let them try.

00:08:47Steve, you're a stranger here.

00:08:49They've lived this way for generations.

00:08:51One man isn't going to change them overnight.

00:08:53You're a real worrywart.

00:08:55I'm serious, Steve.

00:08:57They can be dangerous.

00:08:58Okay, I'll be careful.

00:09:01You just stop worrying.

00:09:09Oh, Steve, I love you.

00:09:11I love you so much.

00:09:18What was that?

00:09:20I don't know.

00:09:20You get in that truck and lock it up.

00:09:28You get in that truck and lock it up.

00:09:58Listen, Benton.

00:10:02The coroner ruled that Sawyer died by misadventure.

00:10:05Now, as far as this officer's concerned, that's the end of it.

00:10:08But, Sheriff, I can't see why the...

00:10:09Look, if Lem was killed by anything human, I wouldn't need you to tell me my job.

00:10:14But I'm not about to go tromping through the swamp looking for an overgrown gator.

00:10:18Sawyer wasn't killed by an alligator.

00:10:20Is that so?

00:10:22Did you hear that, Morton?

00:10:23Game Warden Benton says there wasn't a gator who killed Lem.

00:10:27Well, then, what was it?

00:10:28You know so much.

00:10:29Go on, tell me.

00:10:29What killed him?

00:10:31Doc Grayson said the wounds were the kind of squid or a large octopus might cause.

00:10:36Oh, sure.

00:10:37And did Grayson explain how a saltwater creature happened to be 30 miles inland living in clear water?

00:10:42Stranger things have happened.

00:10:44I know that...

00:10:44Look here, Benton.

00:10:45You work for the state.

00:10:47Now, why don't you keep your nose out of county business?

00:10:50Is that clear enough for you?

00:10:51Oh, go soak your fat head.

00:10:58What was that you said?

00:10:59I said go soak your fat head.

00:11:08That boy's looking for bad trouble.

00:11:11And he's sure going to get it.

00:11:13You can bet on that.

00:11:15So, you see, the octopi uses its suction discs to hold its prey.

00:11:28Now, in itself, the disc will not inflict a wound.

00:11:31Same is true with a squid.

00:11:32Now, both creatures have a parrot-like beak as their primary offensive and defensive weapon.

00:11:37Well, maybe the sheriff was right, Dad.

00:11:39Could be a freak or a malformed alligator.

00:11:45No.

00:11:46No, I'm afraid it wasn't.

00:11:49Well, where does that leave us, Doc?

00:11:51I wish I knew.

00:11:53You know, I'm beginning to think Lem was telling the truth in Walker's store.

00:11:57He did see something that night.

00:12:00Something that had intelligence enough to seek him out and destroy him later.

00:12:04But Sawyer claims to have killed the thing he saw.

00:12:06Put a half a dozen rifle bullets into it.

00:12:09I've seen that old 44-40 used.

00:12:11Nothing could live after being hit with those slugs.

00:12:14Well, conceding the possibility of one such creature,

00:12:18we must also concede the possibility of others.

00:12:23Well, there's one sure way of finding out.

00:12:26Go in and search every backwater, channel, and wet spot in the swamp.

00:12:30If it's there, I'll find it.

00:12:38Go in and search!

00:12:51You can, see,

00:13:05It sure is fine around here.

00:13:35Did you hear something?

00:13:55Yes.

00:14:00Well, whatever it was, it's not here anymore.

00:14:04Do you want some coffee?

00:14:12Yeah, thanks, son.

00:14:17An army could hide in here and never be noticed.

00:14:19Well, one did.

00:14:21What?

00:14:22The Seminoles under Osceola in the 1830s.

00:14:25Took the U.S. Army two years to round them up.

00:14:28I remember reading about Osceola in high school.

00:14:31Two years.

00:14:34I've only been out of two days and I feel worn out.

00:14:37Well, we might as well keep on looking around.

00:14:41Well, let's go.

00:14:42Let's go.

00:14:43Let's go.

00:14:44Let's go.

00:14:45Let's go.

00:14:46Let's go.

00:14:47Let's go.

00:14:48Let's go.

00:14:49Let's go.

00:14:50Let's go.

00:14:51Let's go.

00:14:52Let's go.

00:14:53Let's go.

00:14:54Let's go.

00:14:55Well, I guess we may as well give up for today.

00:14:59Well, you won't get any argument from me.

00:15:12Guess we may as well give up today.

00:15:13Well, you won't get any argument from me.

00:15:42I'm asking you for the last time, Dave Walker.

00:15:59You answer me, you dirty old man?

00:16:02I ain't dirty, Liz, baby.

00:16:05Liz, baby.

00:16:07Liz, honey.

00:16:08Liz, baby.

00:16:09Liz, baby.

00:16:11Liz, honey.

00:16:13Can't you think of anything else safe, stupid?

00:16:15I've got to get this order over Miss Chauvey.

00:16:17She's one of my better customers.

00:16:19Can't keep her waiting.

00:16:23I love you, Liz, baby.

00:16:27Get out.

00:16:28Get out, you fat pig!

00:16:38You, uh, have some trouble, Dave?

00:16:50You know living, Cal.

00:16:52Gotta get the hair down every now and then.

00:16:55You sure don't know an awful lot about females.

00:16:58I gotta hand it to you.

00:17:00I can't stand here, John, Cal.

00:17:03Gotta get this order over to Miss Chauvey.

00:17:06What's she letting her hair down about this time?

00:17:08Well, ever since Lynn got herself killed,

00:17:13she wants me to sell out and move into town.

00:17:16Don't you let her bamboozle you, Dave.

00:17:19You keep her right here in the store.

00:17:22After all, the place wouldn't be the same without you around.

00:17:26Thanks, Cal.

00:17:27I better get going.

00:17:28See when I get back.

00:17:30Yeah, I'll be around.

00:17:36Liv, please.

00:17:47It's Cal, honey.

00:17:53You want something, Cal?

00:18:08I sure do, honey.

00:18:23Quiet.

00:18:28Oh, I'm dead.

00:18:30Me too.

00:18:32Come on over here.

00:18:42Well, that seems kind of silly knocking ourselves out looking for something we aren't even sure exists.

00:18:48What do you mean?

00:18:48You know, we've covered miles of back channel and haven't come across anything to support your father's theory of an alien creature.

00:18:58Not so much as a mud print we couldn't identify.

00:19:02I know.

00:19:05You're not going to give up, are you, Steve?

00:19:07Well, I can't waste any more time on a wild goose chase.

00:19:13With all respect to your father's ideas.

00:19:15Dad seems so sure.

00:19:20Oh, my God.

00:19:50You're some woman, Liz.

00:20:03I reckon I'd haven't met a woman like you before.

00:20:08You really like me, Cal?

00:20:12You're kidding.

00:20:14No, I didn't hurt you now, did I?

00:20:16Well, it's just so strong.

00:20:22I like him and he's strong.

00:20:25Well, you sure picked a doozy, that man, Dave.

00:20:31I don't think he's got a muscle in him.

00:20:33Just a big piece of flab.

00:20:35Oh, honey, I didn't mean anything against you.

00:20:42Just that I can't see a real woman like you

00:20:45tying in with a tub of lard like him.

00:20:51You wouldn't understand, Cal.

00:20:54You know, I've wanted to tell you.

00:20:59You just wouldn't understand.

00:21:01You wouldn't think bad at me.

00:21:02You'd try me.

00:21:04Come on, you tell old Cal all about it.

00:21:13You wouldn't think bad at me.

00:21:15Crazy.

00:21:18He'd tell me you killed your pa and your ma

00:21:20and your whole family.

00:21:22I fight to protect you.

00:21:24You're right.

00:21:50You're right.

00:21:50My first husband was a no-good bum.

00:22:10Couldn't keep a job more than a week.

00:22:14He used to get lushed up, come home beat up on me.

00:22:16It must have been a prize pig.

00:22:21One night he tried to hold up a gas station.

00:22:25He was so drunk he couldn't even run.

00:22:28He could have missed a mile away.

00:22:31Got sent up.

00:22:34I got a divorce.

00:22:38That's rough.

00:22:40After three years working in a lousy bino, I was ready for the first guy to said a nice word to me.

00:22:47It's Dave.

00:22:50That's it.

00:22:52I wish it had been me.

00:22:54I don't know how to take care of a woman like you, Liz.

00:22:57Maybe it ain't too late, Cal.

00:23:08You're wrong, woman.

00:23:10It's too late for the both of you.

00:23:13Get up.

00:23:16Come on, get up.

00:23:18Now look, Dave, I know what you're thinking, but...

00:23:21I got double large shot in this here thing.

00:23:24You got two seconds before I pull the trigger.

00:23:27No point getting riled, Dave.

00:23:31It wasn't my fault when...

00:23:33She's been testing me for months to take her out.

00:23:35Sure, Cal.

00:23:37I understand.

00:23:39Get her up so I can get a better look at the line, little tramp.

00:23:42Come on, get her up.

00:23:44Come on, get up.

00:23:45No.

00:23:46No.

00:23:47No, he killed me.

00:23:48He killed me.

00:23:49Jump him.

00:23:50When your husband wants to take a look at you.

00:23:51You, uh, you walk all the way, Dave?

00:23:52One more step and I'll blow your plumbing, too.

00:23:54Get over there.

00:23:56Now...

00:23:57Now, Dave, it ain't as bad as you think.

00:23:58Shut up!

00:23:59Triumph.

00:24:01What are you gonna do?

00:24:02You'll find out soon enough.

00:24:04Dave, you put down that gun before I get mad and make you eat it.

00:24:08You go ahead and try it, Cal.

00:24:09Go right ahead and try it.

00:24:11Go right ahead and try it.

00:24:13You go right ahead and try it.

00:24:15You go right ahead and try it.

00:24:17You go right ahead and try it.

00:24:19No.

00:24:21No.

00:24:23No.

00:24:24No.

00:24:25No.

00:24:26No.

00:24:27No.

00:24:28No.

00:24:30Move.

00:24:31Move!

00:24:59Move!

00:25:01I'm ready!

00:25:02Come on!

00:25:03Come on!

00:25:04No!

00:25:05No!

00:25:06No!

00:25:07Come on!

00:25:09Come on!

00:25:10Come on!

00:25:12Come on!

00:25:15No!

00:25:16Come on!

00:25:17Come on!

00:25:18No!

00:25:20No!

00:25:21No!

00:25:22Come on, run!

00:25:26Run till you drop!

00:25:34Come on!

00:25:36Come on!

00:25:38Come on!

00:25:40Come on!

00:25:42Come on!

00:25:44Come on!

00:25:45Come on!

00:25:47Run till you drop!

00:25:52Oh, no!

00:25:53Oh!

00:26:14No!

00:26:15I can't go anymore.

00:26:16I can't!

00:26:17You've got to let him stop.

00:26:18Let him go!

00:26:19Get it!

00:26:20I can't go!

00:26:21I can't go!

00:26:22I can't!

00:26:23I can't!

00:26:50Come on.

00:26:51Keep going.

00:26:52Dave!

00:26:53Please, you've got to listen.

00:26:54It wasn't my fault, Honest.

00:26:55She kept playing up to me every time you turned your back.

00:26:57It wasn't my fault!

00:26:58You call yourself a man!

00:26:59You and your muscles!

00:27:00Shut up, you!

00:27:01Shut up!

00:27:02If it wasn't you, I wouldn't be in this fix.

00:27:03And my old friend Dave wouldn't be doing this thing to me.

00:27:05It's all your fault!

00:27:06Get going.

00:27:07Get going.

00:27:08But Dave, Dave, we've been friends.

00:27:09We've been friends a long time, Dave.

00:27:10You wouldn't kill an old friend, Dave.

00:27:11If you don't move, I'll kill you where you stand.

00:27:12But Dave!

00:27:13Pray, big man!

00:27:32Dave!

00:27:34Pray, big man!

00:27:40I didn't mean it, Dave!

00:27:42I didn't mean it!

00:27:44Dave, the kid is out here!

00:27:52Please, Dave!

00:27:54I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

00:27:56Please!

00:27:58Please come!

00:28:00Please!

00:28:02I'm sorry, honey! I'm sorry, Dave!

00:28:04I'm sorry!

00:28:06I didn't mean it!

00:28:08Please!

00:28:10I'm sorry!

00:28:14You think you'll learn enough to stay away from a woman, Carol?

00:28:18Oh! Oh! Anything, Dave!

00:28:20I'm moving in here!

00:28:22I'm moving out of a county! I'll do anything you say, Dave!

00:28:24Anything!

00:28:26All right.

00:28:28Come on out of there.

00:28:30Oh!

00:28:32Oh!

00:28:34Oh!

00:28:36Oh, my God!

00:28:38Oh, my God!

00:28:40Oh, my God!

00:28:42Behind you!

00:28:44Oh!

00:28:46Oh!

00:28:48Oh!

00:28:50Oh!

00:28:52Oh!

00:28:54There ain't nothin' down here, Sheriff!

00:29:04Well, I'm getting tired of this!

00:29:06Come on in, boys!

00:29:08Well, if there was any bodies out there, we'd have found them!

00:29:18I want some straight answers, Walter.

00:29:20And don't give me any more of that crud about monsters, either.

00:29:24And don't give me any more of that!

00:29:26I want you to hide them after you killed them!

00:29:28I told you the truth, Sheriff!

00:29:30I didn't kill them!

00:29:32I just wanted to scare them good!

00:29:36I loved my Liz.

00:29:38I loved my Liz.

00:29:40I wouldn't do anything to hide her.

00:29:42I loved her.

00:29:44Sure.

00:29:46You loved her.

00:29:48That's why you chased her through the swamp with a shotgun.

00:29:50Come on, Walker.

00:29:52Where'd you hide the bodies?

00:29:54Won't you believe me?

00:29:56There were some monsters.

00:29:58They...

00:29:59Take him out of here before I lose my temper.

00:30:01My...

00:30:05I'm pretty...

00:30:09County pay a reward if someone finds a body, Sheriff.

00:30:13Fifty dollars.

00:30:17Each.

00:30:20Yeah.

00:30:25You know, I never thought that of old Dave.

00:30:28Of course, everybody knowed that Cal and Liz had a hankering for each other.

00:30:32Everybody but old Dave.

00:30:34Stern fools.

00:30:36Grappling out there in the middle of the water.

00:30:39If them bodies are still in there,

00:30:42you can bet some old bull gator's got him stuffed in his cave under the bank,

00:30:46letting them ripen up for a few days.

00:30:49Yeah, well...

00:30:52What we need now is some long cypress poles to go in there and probe them gator caves.

00:30:57Hey, hey.

00:31:00I'm sorry, Doc. I can't do it.

00:31:03I have to do it myself.

00:31:04Wouldn't want to have to arrest you, Doc, but I will if I find you near the preserve with any explosives.

00:31:08Steve.

00:31:09I'm sorry, Nan. That's the way it's gotta be.

00:31:11Steve's right, Nan. It's his job to protect wildlife.

00:31:14What about human life?

00:31:15Three people have been killed in that game preserve.

00:31:17Doesn't that mean anything to you?

00:31:18Nan, try to understand.

00:31:19If I could be sure something in the swamp was responsible for those deaths,

00:31:21I wouldn't hesitate a minute.

00:31:23We've been together the whole time.

00:31:24I'm sorry, Doc.

00:31:25I can't do it.

00:31:26I can't do it.

00:31:27I can't do it.

00:31:28I can't do it.

00:31:29I have to do it myself.

00:31:30Wouldn't want to have to arrest you, Doc, but I will if I find you near the preserve with any explosives.

00:31:33But you can bet your bottom dollar the other two died from Dave Walker's shotgun.

00:31:36Do you remember that game preserve?

00:31:37Doesn't that mean anything to you?

00:31:38Nan, try to understand.

00:31:39If I could be sure something in the swamp was responsible for those deaths, I wouldn't hesitate a minute.

00:31:43We've been together the last three days.

00:31:46We didn't see a trace of anything unusual.

00:31:48Not so much as a suggestion of any form of life unknown to us.

00:31:52Steve, something killed those people.

00:31:55All right.

00:31:56I'll admit so.

00:31:57Your death left a lot of questions unanswered.

00:31:59But you can bet your bottom dollar the other two died from Dave Walker's shotgun.

00:32:02Do you really believe that?

00:32:04Figure it out, Nan.

00:32:05Walker admitted chasing his wife and cow into the swamps after he found them together.

00:32:09He shot them and he tried to place the blame on Sawyer's DTs.

00:32:13If Sawyer told of seeing purple giraffes with polka dot tails, Walker would have claimed they did it.

00:32:19There's one argument against that, Steve.

00:32:21Dave Walker wasn't the kind of a man to hang himself.

00:32:24Not even with two murder charges against him.

00:32:26I talked with Dave less than an hour before he killed himself.

00:32:29That man was in a state of shock.

00:32:31I've seen frightened men before, terrified men.

00:32:34But I've never seen anything to compare with the horror and the fear in Walker's eyes.

00:32:38Well, he realized what he'd done and he killed two people.

00:32:41And one his wife.

00:32:43Oh, look, Doc.

00:32:44Nan and I were all over that swamp.

00:32:46And why didn't these monsters attack us?

00:32:48I've been thinking about that.

00:32:50They're probably night creatures.

00:32:52They can't stand the light and they stay down near the bottom during the day.

00:32:55A small charge would stun him, bring him to the surface.

00:32:59Can't buy it, Doc.

00:33:01You're pig-headed, Steve Benton.

00:33:04Stubborn and pig-headed.

00:33:06You just don't understand, do you?

00:33:08No.

00:33:17Good night, Doc.

00:33:18How many are you talking about?

00:33:20I'm lying to you.

00:33:21I'm waiting.

00:33:22I have to make a moor in here.

00:33:23I have to make a moor in here.

00:33:24I'm waiting.

00:33:25I have to make a moor in here.

00:33:26We are taking oor in there.

00:33:27Why are you talking aboutüber?

00:33:28Bye, and I don't know.

00:33:29I'm sifted.

00:33:30You still got this moor in here.

00:33:31You're not mLED off.

00:33:32Oh, I have to make a moor in here.

00:33:33No.

00:33:34A moor in here.

00:33:35It's a moor in here.

00:33:36Right over there in them reeds.

00:34:06That's where that big one used to be.

00:34:13Yeah.

00:34:14Caught some good catfish in that hole.

00:34:18Yeah.

00:34:19Yeah.

00:34:20Yeah.

00:34:21Yeah.

00:34:22Yeah.

00:34:23Yeah.

00:34:24Yeah.

00:34:25Yeah.

00:34:26Yeah.

00:34:27Yeah.

00:34:28Yeah.

00:34:29Yeah.

00:34:30Yeah.

00:34:31Yeah.

00:34:32Yeah.

00:34:37Yeah.

00:34:39Yeah.

00:34:41Boy, this is sure a hot one.

00:34:49Right unseasonable.

00:34:55They're right unseasonable.

00:35:01Sure is funny.

00:35:03Huh?

00:35:04Ain't you noticed anything?

00:35:06About what?

00:35:07We've been prodding around till all morning.

00:35:09Ain't run across a single gator.

00:35:13By rights, this pool should be crawling with him.

00:35:18Sure funny.

00:35:19Yeah, that is funny.

00:35:21I don't like the looks of things.

00:35:23Let's call it a day.

00:35:25Well, now, wait a minute.

00:35:26We ain't pulled the gator holes around the bin yet.

00:35:28You do what you want to do, boy.

00:35:30Just get me on dry land and right quick.

00:35:33All right.

00:35:34Now, ain't no use getting all head up.

00:35:36Let's go.

00:35:39You've got to quit drinking that moonshine.

00:35:44That's why you're so wrinkled and ugly.

00:35:50We out here, wild goose chasing.

00:35:54You're so

00:36:17we're in here, wild goose chasing.

00:36:19Let's go.

00:36:49Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

00:37:19We've been calling, but there's been no answer.

00:37:44Oh, I just got back.

00:37:45What seems to be the trouble?

00:37:46Well, haven't you heard?

00:37:48Old Sam Peters and Porky Reed have disappeared.

00:37:51Come on inside.

00:37:58You know, Covis, nothing would please him more than to have all the swamp people disappear.

00:38:04Swamp trash, he calls them.

00:38:06I know.

00:38:07They have about as much regard for him as he has for them.

00:38:11When they're worried enough to go to him, you know something's wrong.

00:38:15Mrs. Reed said the men went searching for Cal and Mrs. Walker's bodies, and they never returned.

00:38:21Covis says he'll get up a search party if they don't show up in a couple of days.

00:38:26Doc, you and Ann take your car and get as many volunteers as you can.

00:38:30Tell them to meet me at the old wagon road.

00:38:32I'll call Doak Evans and have him bring his dogs.

00:38:36Either they're lost or they've had an accident.

00:38:38I hope to heaven you're right.

00:38:40Good night.

00:39:10Good night.

00:39:40Good night.

00:40:10Good night.

00:40:11Only the good Lord can answer that.

00:40:17Well, at least we know they got this far.

00:40:32All right.

00:40:33Let's sit up in the two parties and circle the lake.

00:40:36Keep your eyes open.

00:40:37Let's move out.

00:40:39Let's go.

00:40:40Let's go.

00:40:42Let's go.

00:40:44Let's go.

00:40:45Let's go.

00:40:46Let's go.

00:40:47Let's go.

00:40:48Let's go.

00:40:49Let's go.

00:40:50Let's go.

00:40:51Let's go.

00:40:52Let's go.

00:40:53Let's go.

00:40:54Let's go.

00:40:55Let's go.

00:40:56Let's go.

00:40:57Let's go.

00:40:58Let's go.

00:40:59Let's go.

00:41:00Let's go.

00:41:01Let's go.

00:41:02Let's go.

00:41:03Let's go.

00:41:04Let's go.

00:41:05Let's go.

00:41:06Let's go.

00:41:07Let's go.

00:41:08Let's go.

00:41:09Let's go.

00:41:10Let's go.

00:41:15Let's go.

00:41:21All clear.

00:41:26It's clear over here.

00:41:38Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

00:41:52Oh, oh, oh.

00:41:55All right, let's keep moving.

00:42:25Well, we can't do anything more tonight. Might as well start back.

00:42:37I reckon there ain't no use hurrying now, Mr. Benton.

00:42:40Reed and old Sam was alive.

00:42:43They'd let us know him with a holler or something.

00:42:45Yeah, it kind of looks that way.

00:42:47You fellas notice anything about this lake?

00:42:50I mean, the gators.

00:42:51What about them?

00:42:52They ain't.

00:42:53A piece of water this size usually has maybe 50, 60 biggings around.

00:42:58A whole lot of little ones.

00:43:00It's real unnatural.

00:43:02Well, maybe our torture scared them away.

00:43:04Nothing scares gators.

00:43:06Nothing.

00:43:07Animal or human.

00:43:11Well, we might as well get out of here.

00:43:23You got something in mind, Steve?

00:43:25I keep thinking what Evan said about the gators.

00:43:29Nothing scares them, animal or human.

00:43:32And yet something made them leave.

00:43:34Maybe a mineral contamination.

00:43:37Guess I better run some water samples.

00:43:39Come on, you two.

00:43:40Drink your coffee.

00:43:40And supposing there is no contamination?

00:43:46Well, then I'll send over to Eastport for a diving rig and go down to look for this monster of yours.

00:43:51No, Steve.

00:43:51Don't even joke like that.

00:43:53I'm not joking, man.

00:43:55I had some training with an aqualung while I was in the Navy.

00:43:57But, Steve.

00:43:58Look, there are two bodies we know for sure down there.

00:44:01Maybe four.

00:44:02They've got to be brought up.

00:44:03Wait a minute.

00:44:05There are no alligators in that part of the swamp, right?

00:44:07So?

00:44:08No sign of any fish or snakes?

00:44:11No.

00:44:12Well, what are you getting at, Doc?

00:44:14Well, that goes your argument about setting off a dynamite charge underwater.

00:44:18You'd bring the bodies to the surface.

00:44:20Get it out of your mind, Doc.

00:44:22I'm not using any explosives as long as there's another way.

00:44:25Why must you be such a...

00:44:26Stubborn pig head?

00:44:28Exactly.

00:44:29I'll tell you why.

00:44:31Number one, there's bound to be some Aquarian life in that section,

00:44:33even if the bigger forms have abandoned it.

00:44:35Explosion underwater would destroy every living thing

00:44:39and wreck what nature took years to build up.

00:44:42Number two, I'm paid to prevent the useless slaughter of wildlife.

00:44:46Number three, I'd have to get authorization.

00:44:49And to get that authorization,

00:44:50I'd have to come up with a heck of a good reason.

00:44:53Satisfied?

00:44:56Finish up, Dad.

00:44:57I want to go home.

00:44:58Uh, Steve, uh...

00:45:01How long would it take to get this diving equipment from Eastport?

00:45:04Hmm, a couple days. Why?

00:45:07Oh, nothing.

00:45:12Hey, care of yourself, Steve.

00:45:21Well, here's hoping.

00:45:22Dad, can't you throw the dynamite in from here?

00:45:26No, I want to get it out into the middle.

00:45:28In the deepest part.

00:45:35All right.

00:45:36All right.

00:45:36Let's go.

00:45:58Stop!

00:46:00Stop!

00:46:30Let you go any minute.

00:47:00Let's go.

00:47:30I just can't figure it out.

00:47:57Walker's wife, why didn't her body come to the surface?

00:48:00I don't know.

00:48:04I think I'd better walk over to the coroner's office.

00:48:07What's the matter, Mr. Benton?

00:48:09Do you feel awkward about arresting my father in his own home?

00:48:12I warned him I'd arrest him if he used dynamite.

00:48:15That's nice of you.

00:48:18Well, the autopsy should be over by now.

00:48:23Oh, Steve.

00:48:25I thought you'd be here.

00:48:27I don't like to have to do this, Doctor.

00:48:30Do we have time for a cup of coffee first?

00:48:33Sure.

00:48:34Do you mind, honey?

00:48:35No, I'll make some sandwiches.

00:48:36One thing is certain, for all the good it'll do now.

00:48:52Dave Walker didn't shoot Cal.

00:48:54I just come from the autopsies.

00:48:59Covers tried to keep me out.

00:49:01But I told them I'd raise a stink they'd smell all the way to the Capitol if he did.

00:49:05Well, what killed them, Doc?

00:49:07Not drowning.

00:49:09And Cal wasn't shot, either.

00:49:10Every drop of blood was drained out of their bodies.

00:49:14And they had wounds on their throats.

00:49:18Suction wounds.

00:49:19Like a gigantic leech might make.

00:49:24And there's something even more incredible.

00:49:26Now, Cal was supposed to have been killed several days ago.

00:49:29Sam and Reed had been missing a matter of 48 hours.

00:49:33All three of them, as far as we know, were in that lake a minimum of two days.

00:49:38Now, I'd stake my reputation as a doctor.

00:49:41That Cal hadn't been dead more than two or three hours when we found him.

00:49:45And the other two less than that.

00:49:47First stage rigor mortis started in during the autopsy.

00:49:50But how could that be, Doc?

00:49:51It's impossible.

00:49:53The coroner will confirm it.

00:49:55Whatever killed them is still in that lake.

00:49:57And it's going to take more than dynamite to get it out.

00:50:02A concussion from those charges would have killed a full-grown whale.

00:50:07That explains how Cal and the others lived after they were supposed to be drowned.

00:50:12What do you mean?

00:50:13Well, this whole region is riddled by caves and caverns cut out by the ocean thousands of years ago.

00:50:19If there are caves above the water, then there must be caves under the water.

00:50:23Go on.

00:50:25Mike and I had a chance to fool around with some frogman equipment captured from the Italian Navy.

00:50:30We sort of prowled through a sunken transport off Salerno.

00:50:33When the ship went down, it trapped some air inside the hull.

00:50:39We'd go down, come up inside the officer's lounge, take off her face mask,

00:50:43and sort of sample some of the bottles floating around.

00:50:46We'd drive the guys crazy trying to figure out how we were getting the stuff.

00:50:51You mean you think that there's an air pocket or a cave underneath the lake?

00:50:55Right.

00:50:55Gotta be.

00:50:56How else could those people have lived down there?

00:50:58Not only that, it explains how whatever it is down there lived through the concussions.

00:51:01Steve.

00:51:05Liz Walker.

00:51:07She might still be down there.

00:51:10Alive.

00:51:27Mal.

00:51:28Mal.

00:51:29Mal!

00:51:30Mal!

00:51:31Mal.

00:52:00Mal.

00:52:01Comfortable?

00:52:09Yeah.

00:52:11You sure you don't want me to go down for you, Mike?

00:52:13You haven't had one of these things on for a long time,

00:52:15while me, every other day, I've been playing fish.

00:52:19Not this time, Mike.

00:52:22If you ask me, they ought to have their heads examined.

00:52:25Giant leeches.

00:52:28I'm willing to bet a month's pay.

00:52:30They don't come up with nothing more than excuses.

00:52:33He's crazy.

00:52:34Him, the doc, and his brat, too.

00:52:37Just wait till I get on the phone to the Capitol.

00:52:40I'll guarantee somebody will wish they'd kept their nose out of other people's business.

00:52:44I'll guarantee that.

00:52:49Let's go, Mike.

00:52:54Steve!

00:52:57Be careful, please.

00:52:58Don't worry, Mike will be ready if anything goes wrong.

00:53:01Don't worry about Steve.

00:53:02Now, if you were going after Barracuda, you might have a tiny bit to worry about.

00:53:07Ready, Mike?

00:53:07Don't worry.

00:53:31Oh, my God.

00:53:31No, no, no, please, stay away, please, please, please, please, please, please, please.

00:54:01It's not exactly inviting, is it?

00:54:04It sure isn't.

00:54:06Hold a steady, Mike.

00:54:29It'll stop anything up to a tiger shot.

00:54:31But you've got to hit, and misses don't count.

00:54:34If anything goes wrong, just yank on the line, and I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:37I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:39I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:40I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:41I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:43I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:44I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:45I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:48I'll be down in a hurry.

00:54:51Oh, oh, oh, oh.

00:55:21Oh, oh, oh.

00:55:51You sure you don't want me to go down and finish it off for you, Steve?

00:56:11No, thanks, Mike.

00:56:13I think I hurt her pretty bad.

00:56:16Careful now.

00:56:17Anything hurts ten times as dangerous.

00:56:24He's wounded it.

00:56:25He's going to finish it off.

00:56:26Does he have to go under again?

00:56:30He's got to make sure, honey.

00:56:33Where could it have come from?

00:56:36I wish I knew.

00:56:38We'll have to make some tests.

00:56:40Maybe the proximity of Cape Canaveral's got something to do with it.

00:56:43The rocket station?

00:56:45Well, they use atomic energy in their first stages of launching.

00:56:48Not all of them have been successful.

00:56:50You think that if some animal life was close by, not close enough to be killed, but close

00:56:55enough to feel the effects of a radioactive energy that's...

00:56:57a mutation, a type of gigantism of some common animal.

00:57:03Whatever it is, I hope he's able to bring it up.

00:57:06All right.

00:57:16Let's go.

00:57:34Oh, my God.

00:58:04That can't be Liz.

00:58:13What could have done that?

00:58:16Look at her face.

00:58:34Oh, my God.

00:59:04Oh, my God.

01:00:18I never saw nothing like that.

01:00:32I never saw nothing like that.

01:00:35There was no sign of them this time.

01:00:56They must be licking their wounds.

01:00:59You sure you used enough stuff to do the job, Mike?

01:01:01I used 100 sticks to 40%.

01:01:03Ought to blow the bottom right out.

01:01:05All right, let her go.

01:01:06Oh, no.
