00:00that day I had no idea what kind of hell we were heading into we humans thinking
00:15we were so smart ended up unleashing our own worst nightmares at the beginning
00:20it was all about making the world but before we knew it things spun out of
00:27control mistakes were made and you've seen how it all went down from there
00:57oh
01:04oh
01:08you leaving what's wrong nothing just if we could pretend that didn't happen that would be great
01:36did i do something wrong i'll see ya see ya
01:42you better have a really good excuse for calling me non-stop on a weekend i know but it's up to you to decide whether this is a serious incident or just some crazy prank i thought you might want to come down and see this

03:30that
03:32it
03:34you
03:36you
03:38going on. So you're saying the bodies are being kept here by someone? Looks like. My
03:45question is why? Maybe for some bio experiments or I don't know black market
03:50organ trading or something. You might need to consult someone to see what's
03:55really going on here. You know I'm more concerned about who they are and how they
03:59find. Well we're on it. What is it? Is this bed empty the whole time? Do you think there was someone here before as well?
04:29Don't bother. The community is still waiting on repairs from a hurricane. That was two months ago. Welcome to the efficiency of the city and poor neighborhoods. You should know that. You think we should leave a few officers here to stick up the place for a few days? That's your call but I think it's clearly abandoned. Looks like we have a big problem. And it's not so abandoned after all. Low 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The activity of the sample significantly
04:59increases. Professor, are we starting the live experiment today? No, I don't think it's a good time. But according to our agreement with Morel Biotech we need to assess the samples cold intolerance as soon as possible. Listen, I don't think they're being straight with us about the samples. Well, um, they don't need to be straight with us as long as they pay up, right? The first round of live experiments marked out all of our test subjects.
05:27Got one. Got one. Got two. All of them. Don't you think we should tread a little carefully? I think, uh, mice don't have bills to pay or loans to settle. Once you figure out it's parasitic mode, then we'll give the experiment another shot.
05:45What if they pull their funding because of it? They won't. They need these answers. Just like you said.
05:57He's been dead for several days.
06:03Okay, so why no signs of decomposition?
06:06That's because of those things.
06:09Take a look at this.
06:11It's likely he died from crossfire.
06:13Okay, why are we picking up brainwaves, then, of a guy that's been dead for several days?
06:17Not sure.
06:18Is it possible he's still alive?
06:20Yep. There's a doornail.
06:24Seriously, George, what?
06:26Oh, come on. That was awesome, and you know it.
06:32Roger's expecting a report first thing in the morning.
06:35Yeah, I'm gonna get to it later. I need a break.
06:37You wanna get a drink?
06:39Uh, my son just called, and you know this job's already ruining my marriage, and you want me to go home smelling like a bar?
06:44Okay, my bad. I'm sorry.
06:46It's okay. You just behave yourself.
06:48Don't I always?
06:49Yeah.
06:54Another one?
06:56Yeah, why not?
07:00Do you eat in the womb tonight?
07:09Slumming it in police bars, now I see.
07:13What can I get for you?
07:14I'll have what he's at me.
07:15So, what are you doing here?
07:18Sounded like you had a pretty big case to run off to this morning.
07:20Yeah, I just had a really stressful day, and needed to blow off some steam.
07:26Would you like some help with that?
07:27Mickey?
07:41Mickey?
07:45Mickey?
07:45Mickey?
07:48Mickey?
07:49No, no, no, no, no, no.
07:56My baby boy.
08:01So, you're gonna give me the keys to let me go?
08:12Officer.
08:13It's Detective.
08:14Oh, yeah, all right, Detective.
08:18Keys.
08:20Who's this?
08:22That is my mother and my little brother.
08:26Oh, he's adorable.
08:28Yeah, he's 12.
08:30His name's Mickey.
08:34Poor interrogations, Detective.
08:36Yeah, I think the real interrogation is actually about to start.
08:39If you can handle it.
08:41I think I need a shot.
08:48You're telling me that I got dead bodies with brain waves that we can't even identify?
08:56I'm sorry, sir.
08:57Look, we tapped into the national database and we've got nothing to tell us who they are.
09:02No IDs, no medical records, nothing.
09:03Just some marks on their arms or we're assuming are track marks from drug use.
09:06Ah.
09:07We gotta keep quiet about this kind of thing, okay?
09:08Until we know more.
09:09You wouldn't be surprised how something like this can affect a vote in this town and the
09:13election is next month.
09:14We gotta be smart about how we handle this.
09:15Whoa.
09:16What you got there?
09:17What is that?
09:18What do you got there, boy?
09:19I don't know.
09:20What are you got there, boy?
09:21about this kind of thing, okay, until we don't want it.
09:23You wouldn't be surprised how something like this can affect a vote in this town,
09:27and the election is next month.
09:29That'll be smart about how we handle this.
09:34Whoa.
09:35What you got there?
09:38What is that?
09:40What do you got there, boy?
09:43What in the world?
09:46Lord knows what this place would become if
09:48Jay Spencer got the election.
09:50Sir, I need to take this.
09:53Yes?
09:55Where?
09:57Okay.
09:59What now?
10:00They found two new bodies.
10:02What?
10:02Fresh ones.
10:04Where?
10:04Down by the lake.
10:08Well, are you coming?
10:09Looks like it rained pretty hard down here.
10:20It's gonna be difficult to find any prints or cracks.
10:22That is my mother.
10:35Damn it, George.
10:37I know these two.
10:38I know these two.
10:50I was just a kid.
10:54Man, I'm so sorry for your loss.
10:56This is gonna be really hard, but...
10:58Did you leave the room for a bit so I can...
11:00Which might be important?
11:01Go with me, okay?
11:08I need this wrapped up now, all right?
11:10The election is coming up.
11:12People are getting nervous.
11:13With this clipboard coming in,
11:15we expect it to drop below 32 degrees in the next few days.
11:19Make sure to buckle up.
11:25No drugs, no toxins, victims were bitten.
11:29Bitten by what?
11:30Dunno.
11:31Albert thinks it could be gorillas.
11:33You're kidding, right? A gorilla?
11:35Maybe you want to escape from the zoo.
11:36Yeah, okay.
11:37What do you think?
11:44You know, I'm gonna be back in a little bit.
11:47What?
11:47But Hodge is expecting us for a meeting.
11:49You got this, you got this.
11:50I got this.
11:55My goodness.
11:56I got this.
12:04I got this.
12:05I don't know.
12:35I don't know.
13:05Is anyone there?
13:06Is anyone there?
13:07Is anyone there?
13:08Is anyone there?
13:09Is anyone there?
13:10Is anyone there?
13:16Is anyone there?
13:17Is anyone there?
13:23Is anyone there?
13:24Is anyone there?
13:25Is anyone there?
13:30Is anyone there?
13:31Is anyone there?
13:32Is anyone there?
13:33Is anyone there?
13:34Is anyone there?
13:35Is anyone there?
13:36Is anyone there?
13:37I never forget Christmas morning.
13:38Stepping outside the back of the house and seeing old Frank there frozen like an ice sculpture.
13:43Frostbite?
13:44No.
13:45Dead.
13:46Beyond dead.
13:47Beyond dead.
13:48Must have fell asleep drunk in the dish the night before.
13:53God, it snowed all night the night before.
13:56Took me two hours just to chip him out of the ice.
13:58So if he died last Christmas, how is he here on this table?
14:02It's more your department, detective.
14:05I bet you'd see it.
14:06Do that.
14:07Hey.
14:08Hey.
14:09I think I found your gorilla.
14:11I see.
14:12All right.
14:13Thanks, buddy.
14:14They're fake plates.
14:15Can't trace anything.
14:16Gosh, you left some men there.
14:17No, it's my fault.
14:18I mean, I never thought they'd come back.
14:20Oh, yeah, boys.
14:21This is it.
14:22This is it.
14:23Yeah, that's what I said.
14:24This is it.
14:25It's very good, right?
14:26You say so, man.
14:27Find the light house.
14:28It's freezing.
14:37Chum's gonna freeze off in here, man.
14:42You're gonna kill me an ass.
14:44Oh, yeah, boys.
14:46This is it.
14:48This is it.
14:49Yeah, what I said, this is it.
14:51It's perfect, right?
14:52You say so, man.
14:54You're gonna give me an asthma man.
14:56Superman doesn't have asthma.
14:59Hey Superman!
15:01Text phone number and see where she is.
15:03Hey guys, I think there's something in the water.
15:10Are you sure?
15:12Last Christmas?
15:14I checked the records. No mistake.
15:16We're sure about one. I bet the others are connected too.
15:19Tell me about this other case.
15:22Did you see the dead woman and child with bite marks?
15:24The killer was, what did you call it?
15:26A gorilla?
15:28What, they steal its banana?
15:32I think the cases might be linked.
15:34How so?
15:36So at the first scene there was that bed that was empty.
15:38I think there was someone there before.
15:40But somehow they got up.
15:44They got away.
15:46And started killing people.
15:48I mean, of course it's just a theory.
15:53Yeah, yeah, well good thing it's just a theory.
15:55What am I supposed to do if it's true, huh?
15:57Call some ghostbusters?
15:58Hey, I'm sure whatever, or whoever this is, they are human.
16:03Ghosts can't kill people.
16:05Right?
16:06Right.
16:07Right.
16:08Right?
16:09You think we should call the police?
16:10Leave it here.
16:11Call the cops way better.
16:12But after we shoot.
16:13This dump is what you chose to film?
16:16I'm sorry...
16:17No, no problem.
16:18No, no, I like the virus.
16:21And then you see them like this...
16:24You think we should call the police?
16:26Leave it here.
16:27Call the cops way better.
16:28But after we shoot...
16:31This dump, is what you chose to film?
16:36Hey.
16:38Oh.
16:39I'm sorry.
16:40No, no problem.
16:42I...
16:43Why don't you go home?
16:44no no I'd like to keep working take a look at this I discovered that they have
16:51acute sensitivity to temperature below 32 degrees Fahrenheit the sample is in
16:56the sort of hibernation phase but when it's warmer the sample becomes more
17:03active upon the discovery of a host body it lays eggs like crazy kills the host
17:08and then goes through a sort of metamorphosis of sorts once it's within
17:13comfortable temperature range that's when it starts reproducing and eventually
17:18taking over the host body's entire central nervous system what does that
17:24have to do with temperature I'm not exactly sure yet I noticed too that when
17:29submerged in water for too long the activities decrease there too but as soon
17:34as it is back in oxygen-rich environments they bounce back in a matter of minutes
17:40you gross get off me that was great guys no man I'm out of here I got another gig
17:48no boom no bachelor at party what the hell that thing it moves it's I've opened
17:55morel biotech claims the samples from the Antarctic ice mm-hmm they're lying
18:10there's no way they would stumble upon a chunk of ice in Antarctica with its sample
18:15still intact they definitely found a host body they never should have brought out
18:21Antarctica Antarctica is melting professor we're gonna come into contact with it
18:26anyway they just want us to fix the samples cold sensitivity oh I need to
18:29make sure it's safe first don't I the sample is in petri dishes that is as safe as it gets
18:37I'm sorry about your family maybe you need a break I wouldn't go in there for a while if I were you guys
18:50guys
18:55guys
18:57guys
19:04guys
19:10srrrrrrrrggs
19:12srrrrrrrrggghhhhhhhhh
19:15ahhhhhhhhh
19:16ahhh
19:17gées
19:19Hello?
19:31Hey, oh, hold on.
19:36Holy hell.
19:38I just killed Superman.
19:40Weird, right?
19:49What the hell happened?
19:51Apparently, a guy in the blue Speedo just dashed out into the road.
19:55Fan guy ran him over.
19:57What's weird then?
19:59Looks like he came from that house.
20:01You won't believe what's inside.
20:04Check it out.
20:11Got the whole superhero crew.
20:20Same kind of marks the mother and son head.
20:22And there's another big surprise we found just before you got here.
20:25It was crazy, we found this one floating in the water.
20:35You think this is the corpse that escapes?
20:37I think so.
20:38Same outfit.
20:39Even got the same gown.
20:41I'd like to take this one back.
20:47Compared to the samples that we already have.
20:50You know, before the evidence gets contaminated.
20:53All right, Albert.
20:54It's yours.
21:00That's a monster show.
21:08Wow.
21:09Yeah, whole superhero orgy.
21:12But guess who was here but wasn't in the film?
21:14You watched the whole thing, didn't you?
21:18It's not important.
21:20Guess who?
21:21Superman.
21:23Yeah, I bet one of these guys is a biting fetish.
21:26Yeah, okay.
21:27Then we need to compare traces.
21:28If we're lucky, we'll rep this case today.
21:30Let's hope so.
21:31Let's hope so.
21:32Play some music.
21:34Play some music.
22:04Play some music.
22:34I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.
22:39And?
22:40Any useful information?
22:42Not good news.
22:43The bite wounds, including the lethal ones,
22:46they match the dental records of our Superman who got hit by the car.
22:50I knew it.
22:52Case closed.
22:54Wait, I don't understand.
22:55How did he get involved with the corpses in the basement?
22:58I ran into that guy in that house, remember?
23:02Yeah.
23:03Was he wearing a red Speedo?
23:04No.
23:05But he was also more filled out than your Speedo guy.
23:08Maybe they have another accomplice.
23:11Maybe.
23:13Okay.
23:15I need a hot shower and a hot date after today.
23:19Okay.
23:20Go ahead.
23:21I'll write the report.
23:22You sure?
23:23Go on.
23:24Oh, and tell your hot date.
23:26Sorry to hear about it.
23:27How'd you know?
23:30Partners know things.
23:31I'll have you.
23:35All right, see you everyone.
23:36Ugh, this is coming back...
23:37Let's go in mediation.
23:38I got a cap to come up.
23:41Whatever happened
24:05Suspicious vehicle found on Dunham Street.
24:10Need to check some plates, please.
24:14Hey, man.
24:15Hey, man.
24:17I'm so sorry about your family, Professor.
24:21I know it's kind of soon, but I was wondering if it could work on the experiment tonight.
24:25Uh, I don't think the call-in is going to be up to doing that today.
24:28Actually, I could use the distraction.
24:32I'll be at the lab later this afternoon.
24:34I'll see you.
24:40Hi, George.
24:41We found the gray sedan.
24:43Yeah.
24:43Plates have been changed, but it's the one.
24:46Just send me the address. I'll be right there.
24:47Yeah.
24:48I'm so sorry.
24:49No, it's fine.
24:50Yeah.
24:50Seriously.
24:56What have we got?
24:58Well, car's clean, but we found some fingerprints on a wrench in the toolkit.
25:02It belonged to this guy.
25:03Yeah, he served a year in prison for armed robbery, but that's about it.
25:07He could be our guy.
25:08What else do we know about him?
25:09Absolutely nothing.
25:11Sign up, there goes.
25:12Thanks.
25:13Let's go see if anyone's seen him at that hotel over there.
25:15I don't know.
25:20Hands behind your head.
25:34Endangered Animal Protection Association.
25:42Journalist.
25:43So what's so newsworthy about her?
25:45Why are we at that house?
25:52I'm not talking without my lawyer.
25:54Rheons.
25:55No way.
26:05This is what led to aggression among the same species.
26:09Rheons cause mutations in the central nervous system, while the toxoplasma keeps the brainstem
26:13and cerebellum connected with the nerves.
26:15They basically created a whole new system within the host organism.
26:21You're a genius.
26:23We've just modified these samples and made them more adaptable to low temperatures.
26:28That's exactly what our sponsor wanted.
26:30But they're prions.
26:31And it's going to be more difficult for them to spread if they become cold resistant.
26:40We can't hand them over until the risks are assessed.
26:43We can't let things get out of control.
26:49Are you going to cooperate or what?
26:55Well then I can assure you, the next 48 hours are going to be pretty rough for you, my friend.
27:01Colin.
27:06Yeah, you're dating.
27:08He's an expert in toxoplasmosis.
27:10If you didn't know.
27:11Go on.
27:13Why don't you show them the corpses you found in the basement?
27:16If you find something very interesting.
27:24Are you going to follow his advice?
27:26You know, I always thought there was something weird about those corpses, so yeah, it might not be a bad idea.
27:29All right, you go find Colin.
27:33I'll stay.
27:34I can find a way to make him talk.
27:38I don't like this.
27:40It's dangerous.
27:42I can just do everything here myself.
27:43No, we need to get him back to the official lab so Colin can make an assessment.
27:46There's too much research to do to figure out how this happened.
27:50We should have given him Frank instead.
27:51I mean, he's just been laying here since he came in.
27:53Nah, this one is by far the bigger mystery.
27:55Let's go.
27:56Yes, yes, ma'am.
28:11I promise you, if re-elected, I will make sure that happens.
28:15I only want what's best for the citizens, and I will always do what it takes to keep our town safe.
28:20As this cold press moves away, temperatures will start to rise this week, and we'll be getting high here.
28:31Here, take this.
28:34You'll be glad for the caffeine.
28:36Thanks.
28:36You know, you could have told me what was going on, and maybe had some faith in my multiple PhDs to help you figure this out.
28:45I know.
28:46I actually...
28:47Tell me about her.
28:53She's very smart, very focused, probably the best assistant I've ever had.
28:59How'd you meet her?
29:00About two years ago, she started with the team, and then within two months, she secured a targeted research sponsorship from Morel Biotech.
29:09Morel Biotech?
29:10Yes.
29:11Why?
29:12Okay, so I looked into this ship.
29:14It's an Antarctic research vessel owned by Morel Biotech.
29:18Hmm.
29:21The research project sponsored by Morel Biotech was to test the toxoplasma samples brought back from Antarctica.
29:29Her and I need to have a conversation.
29:32Do you think you can get her to come in?
29:33Yeah, I can give her a call and see if she's available.
29:36Sure, if the professor calls her, she'll come.
29:38You know, she did say something weird earlier.
29:43Something along the lines of, we can't let things get out of control.
29:51Oh, that's crazy.
29:53Well, I've never done an MRI on a dead body before, so...

31:14The body you brought in, it got infected by samples from Antarctica.
31:17Wait, what Antarctic samples?
31:18I'll explain later.
31:19Listen, anyone who has contact, especially blood contact, is going to turn into one of them.
31:25Oh my god.
