Transcript

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

01:02oh

01:04hmm

01:06hmm

01:08hmm

01:11you leaving what's wrong nothing just if we could pretend that didn't happen that would

01:36be great did I do something wrong I'll see ya see ya you better have a really good I know but it's up to you

01:57to decide whether this is a serious incident or just some crazy prank I thought you might want to come

02:03down and see this

02:33homeowners have been deceased for almost two years and the house has been vacant ever since

02:44last night a passerby called the police saying they heard some creepy banging and screaming

02:49from inside the house when the police got here they found the back door wide open like bust it

02:54out from the inside we got here there's nothing this sure they're all dead from a medical perspective

03:02yes when what is this Morse code thing was that telling us that's an AUG it's measuring the brain

03:09activity of the corpses the brain activity yeah fascinating actually a brain activity doesn't

03:16immediately cease after death actually can last up to 72 hours okay so you're saying they died within

03:22the last three days well we need a little time to confirm that and the liquids one of these well those are

03:33all about keeping the bodies fresh keeping a monicum of brain activity going on so you're saying the

03:40bodies are being kept here by someone looks like my question is why maybe for some bio experiments or

03:49I don't know black market organ trading or something we 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 died well we're on it

04:00what is it

04:04is this bed empty the whole time do you think there was someone here before as well

04:14don't bother we need still waiting on repairs from a hurricane that was two months ago welcome to the

04:35efficiency of the city and poor neighborhoods you should know that you think we should leave a few

04:40uh officers here to stick up the place for a few days that's your call but I think it's clearly

04:44abandoned looks like we have a big problem it's not so abandoned after all low 32 degrees Fahrenheit

04:55the activity of the sample significantly increases professor are we starting the life experiment today

05:02no I don't think it's a good time but according to our agreement with morale biotech we need to

05:10assess the samples cold intolerance as soon as possible listen I don't think they're being straight

05:16with us about the samples well um they don't need to be straight with us as long as they pay up

05:23right the first round of live experiments marked out all of our test subjects all of them don't you

05:34think we should try it a little carefully I think mice don't have bills to pay or loans to settle once

05:40you figure out it's parasitic mode then we'll give the experiment another shot what if they pull their

05:46funding because of it they won't they need these answers just like you said

05:50he's been dead for several days okay so why no signs of decomposition that's because of those

06:07things take a look at this it's likely he died from crossfire okay why are we picking up brainwaves

06:14then of a guy that's been dead for several days not sure is it possible he's still alive

06:20yep there's a door now seriously george what oh come on that was awesome and you know it

06:29i was expecting a report first thing in the morning yeah i'm gonna get to it later i need a break

06:37you want to get a drink uh my son just called and you know this job's already ruining my marriage

06:42you want me to go home smelling like a bar my bad i'm sorry it's okay you just behave yourself

06:48don't i always don't i always yeah another one yeah why not

06:58slumming it in police bars now i see what can i get for you i'll have what he's at me so what are you

07:17doing here sounded like you had a pretty big case to run off to this morning yeah i just had a really

07:21stressful day and needed to blow off some steam would you like some help with that

07:27mickey

07:34mickey

07:39mickey

07:43mickey

07:53No, no, no, no, no, no.

08:00My baby boy.

08:10So, you gonna give me the keys to let me go?

08:13Officer.

08:15It's detective.

08:16Oh, yeah, all right, detective.

08:19Keys?

08:20Who's this?

08:21That is my mother and my little brother.

08:26He's adorable.

08:27Yeah, he's 12.

08:30His name's Mickey.

08:34Poor interrogations, detective.

08:36I think the real interrogation is actually about to start.

08:39If you can handle it.

08:41I think I need a shot.

08:51You're telling me that I got dead bodies with brainwaves that we can't even identify?

09:08I'm sorry, sir.

09:09Look, we tapped into the national database and we've got nothing to tell us who they are.

09:13No IDs, no medical records, nothing.

09:15Just some marks on their arms or we're assuming are track marks from drug use.

09:18Ah.

09:19We gotta keep quiet about this kind of thing, okay, until we know more.

09:23You wouldn't be surprised how something like this can affect a vote in this town and the election is next month.

09:29Gotta be smart about how we handle this.

09:31Shh.

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 will become if...

09:48Jay Spencer got the election.

09:50Sir, I need to take this.

09:53Yes?

09:55Where?

09:57Okay.

09:59What now?

10:00Ah, they found two new bodies.

10:02What?

10:03Fresh ones.

10:04Where?

10:05Down by the lake.

10:08Well, are you coming?

10:17Looks like it rained pretty hard down here.

10:20It's gonna be difficult to find any prints or cracks.

10:26What?

10:29That is my mother.

10:35Damn it, George.

10:37I know these two.

10:52I was just kidding.

10:53Man, 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 finish my part?

11:02Go with me, okay?

11:08I need this wrapped up now, alright?

11:10The election is coming up.

11:12People are getting nervous.

11:14With this cliffhanger coming in,

11:16we're expected to drop below 32 degrees in the next few days.

11:19Make sure to follow up.

11:24No drugs, no toxins, victims were bitten.

11:29Bitten by what?

11:30Dunno.

11:31Albert thinks it could be gorillas.

11:33You're kidding, right?

11:34A gorilla?

11:35Maybe you want to escape from the zoo.

11:37Yeah, okay.

11:42What do you think?

11:44You know, I'm gonna be back in a little bit.

11:46What?

11:47But Hodge is expecting us for a meeting.

11:49You got this, you got this.

11:50I got this.

11:51I got this.

11:55I got this.

12:20I got this.

12:30Well...

12:32This one is too holding me as well.

12:33I'm anyway...

12:36This one is impossible to take off here.

12:39I thought you would be following Jeremiah.

12:40Hello? Is anyone there?

13:10So you knew him?

13:36Oof. Never forget Christmas morning. Stepping outside the back of the house and seeing old Frank there frozen like an ice sculpture.

13:43Frostbite?

13:44No. Dead. Beyond dead. Must have fell asleep drunk in the dish the night before. God, it snowed all night the night before. Took 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? It's more your department, detective. I'll get you to it.

14:07Hey.

14:08Hey.

14:09Hey. I think I found your gorilla.

14:15I see. Alright, thanks buddy. They're fake plates. You can't trace anything. Gosh, you left some men there.

14:23No, it's my fault. I mean, I never thought they'd come back.

14:31Oh yeah, boys! This is it.

14:34This is it?

14:36Yeah, that's what I said. This is it.

14:38It's perfect, right?

14:40It's perfect, right?

14:41You say so, man.

14:46You're the light.

14:50It's freezing.

14:52Jump's gonna freeze off in here, man.

14:55Superman doesn't have asthma.

14:59Hey, Superman.

15:01Text the phone number and see where she is.

15:04Hey guys, I think you're sucking in the water.

15:11Are you sure?

15:13Last Christmas?

15:14I checked the records.

15:15No mistake.

15:16We're sure about one.

15:17I bet the others are connected too.

15:20Tell me about this other case.

15:22You can see the dead woman and child with bite marks.

15:25The killer was, what'd you call it?

15:27A gorilla?

15:29What, they steal its banana?

15:33I think the cases might be linked.

15:35How so?

15:37So at the first scene, there was that bed that was empty.

15:39I think there was someone there before.

15:42But somehow they got up.

15:45They got away.

15:47And started killing people.

15:52I mean, of course it's just a theory.

15:54Yeah, yeah, well good thing it's just a theory.

15:56What am I supposed to do if it's true, huh?

15:58Call some ghostbusters?

16:00Hey, I'm sure whatever or whoever this is, they are human.

16:04Ghosts can't kill people.

16:06Right?

16:07Right.

16:08Right?

16:09Yeah.

16:11Y'all go out and find whoever or whatever.

16:15Hit this.

16:21You think we should call the police?

16:23Leave it here.

16:24Call the cops when I'm better.

16:26But after we shoot.

16:28This dump is where you chose to film?

16:37Hey.

16:39I'm sorry.

16:41No, no problem.

16:43Why don't you go home?

16:44No, no.

16:45I'd like to keep working.

16:47Take a look at this.

16:49I discovered that they have acute sensitivity to temperature.

16:54Below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the sample is in a sort of hibernation phase.

16:58But when it's warmer, the sample becomes more active.

17:04Upon the discovery of a host body, it lays eggs like crazy, kills the host and then goes through a sort of metamorphosis of sorts.

17:12Once it's within comfortable temperature range, that's when it starts reproducing and eventually taking over the host body's entire central nervous system.

17:20Oh my god.

17:23What does that have to do with temperature?

17:26I'm not exactly sure yet.

17:28I noticed too that when submerged in water for too long, the activities decrease there too.

17:33But as soon as it is back in oxygen-rich environments, they bounce back in a matter of minutes.

17:42Ew. Gross. Get off me.

17:44That was great, guys.

17:46Oh man, I'm out of here. I got another gig.

17:47Another film?

17:49Nah, bachelorette party.

17:51What the hell?

17:52What's wrong?

17:53That thing, it moves. It's either open.

17:57Hey, hey dude, are you okay?

18:05Morel Biotech claims this sample's from the Antarctic ice.

18:09They're lying.

18:11There's no way they would stumble upon a chunk of ice in Antarctica with its sample still intact.

18:15They definitely found a host body.

18:19They never should have brought it out of Antarctica.

18:22Antarctica is melting, Professor.

18:24We're gonna come into contact with it anyway.

18:26They just want us to fix the sample's cold sensitivity.

18:29Well, I need to make sure it's safe first, don't I?

18:32The sample is in petri dishes. That is as safe as it gets.

18:37I'm sorry about your family.

18:41Maybe you need a break.

18:45Woo!

18:48I wouldn't go in there for a while if I were you guys.

18:53Guys?

18:54No!

18:55No!

18:56No!

18:57Get off me!

18:58No!

18:59No!

19:00No!

19:01No!

19:02No!

19:03No!

19:04No!

19:05Get off me!

19:06No!

19:16No!

19:17No!

19:18No!

19:19No!

19:21No!

19:22Hello?

19:29Hey, oh, hold on.

19:36Holy hell.

19:38I just killed Superman.

19:48Weird, right?

19:50The hell happened?

19:50Apparently, a guy in the blue Speedo just dashed out into the road.

19:55Fan guy ran him over.

19:56What's weird then?

19:58Looks like he came from that house.

20:01You won't believe what's inside.

20:08Check it out.

20:10Got the whole superhero crew.

20:13The same kind of marks the mother and son hit.

20:21And there's another big surprise we found just before you got here.

20:24It was crazy.

20:25We found this one floating in the water.

20:26You think this is the corpse that escapes?

20:27I think so.

20:28Same outfit.

20:29Even got the same gown.

20:30I'd like to think this one back.

20:31Compared to the samples that we already have.

20:32You know, before the evidence gets contaminated.

20:33All right, Albert.

20:34It's yours.

20:35Got some else to show you.

20:36Got some else to show you.

20:37Got some else to show you.

20:38Ha ha ha.

20:39Oh, wait.

20:40What?

20:41What?

20:42What?

20:43What?

20:44I don't know.

20:45Do you think so?

20:46Same outfit.

20:47You've even got the same gown.

20:48I'd like to think this one back.

20:50Compared to the samples that we already have.

20:51You know, before the evidence gets contaminated.

20:52All right, Albert.

20:54It's yours.

20:55That's a monster show here.

21:07Wow.

21:08Yeah, whole superhero orgy.

21:11But guess who was here but wasn't in the film?

21:14You watched the whole thing, didn't you?

21:17It's not important.

21:19Guess who?

21:20Superman.

21:21Yeah, I bet one of these guys is a biting fetish.

21:24Yeah, okay. Then we need to compare traces.

21:27If we're lucky, we'll rep this case today.

21:29Let's hope so.

21:49Play some music.

21:54No.

21:55What?

21:57What?

21:59No.

22:01No, no, no.

22:03I'm not really seeing it.

22:05I'm not having any problems.

22:07I'll have to make some pictures here.

22:09I'm not having a mission first.

22:12I'm a bitch.

22:14You know what?

22:16I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.

22:38And?

22:39Any useful information?

22:41Not good news.

22:43The bite wounds, including the lethal ones,

22:45will they match the dental records of our Superman who got hit by the car?

22:50I knew it! Case closed.

22:53No, wait, 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?

23:01Yeah. Was he wearing a red Speedo?

23:04No, but he was also more filled out than your Speedo guy.

23:08Maybe they have another accomplice.

23:10Maybe.

23:13Okay. I need a hot shower and a hot date after today.

23:19Go ahead. I'll write the report.

23:21You sure?

23:22Go on.

23:23Oh, and tell your hot date.

23:25Sorry to hear about this today.

23:29How'd you know?

23:30Partners know things.

23:31I'll tell your house.

23:32All right, wait.

23:33I'll tell your house.

23:34Next time's house!

23:35Alright, Come on!

23:37I'm sorry.

23:38The 60's on the bus.

23:39I'll see you next time.

24:09I'll see you next time.

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.

24:46I'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 tool kit.

25:02He belonged to this guy.

25:04He 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?

25:10Absolutely nothing.

25:11Sign up there, guys.

25:12Thanks.

25:13Let's go see if anyone's seen him at that hotel over there.

25:15I don't know.

25:33Hands behind your head.

25:39Endangered Animal Protection Association?

25:42Journalist.

25:43So what's so newsworthy about her?

25:45Why were you at that house?

25:52I'm not talking without my lawyer.

26:03Rheons.

26:04No way.

26:05This is what led to aggression among the same species.

26:09Rheons cause mutations in the central nervous system,

26:11while the toxoplasma keeps the brainstem and cerebellum connected with the nerves.

26:16They 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.

26:32It's going to be more difficult for them to spread if they become cold resistant.

26:36We can't hand them over until the risks are assessed.

26:42We can't let things get out of control.

26:49Are you going to cooperate or what?

26:55Well, then I can assure you,

26:56the next 48 hours are going to be pretty rough for you, my friend.

27:03Collins.

27:04Yeah, you're dating.

27:08He's an expert in toxoplasmosis.

27:10If you didn't know.

27:11Collins.

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,

27:28so yeah, it might not be a bad idea.

27:31All right, you go find Colin.

27:32I'll stay.

27:34Okay.

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.

28:14I only want what's best for the citizens, and I will always do what it takes to keep our tongue safe.

28:20As this cold press moves away, temperatures will start to rise this week, and we'll be getting high here.

28:32Here, 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...

28:48Tell me about her.

28:53She's very smart, very focused, probably the best assistant I've ever had.

28:59How'd you meet her?

28:59Uh, about 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.

29:12Why?

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.

29:29to her, 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.

29:39You know, she did say something weird earlier.

29:43Something along the lines of, we can't let things get out of control.

29:52Oh, that's crazy.

29:53Well, I've never, uh, done an MRI on a dead body before, so...

29:58Yeah.

29:58Oh, my God!

30:00What's going on?

30:02I thought he was tanked.

30:03Tank, what are you doing?

30:06Tank?

30:08What the f*** was that?

30:16I don't know.

30:18Hello?

30:19Professor?

30:22Hello?

30:23What happened?

30:24Hey!

30:25What the hell are you?

30:37Reagan, we need to get out of here.

30:40Don't move!

30:40Don't come any closer!

30:43Is it dead?

30:47It's dead already.

30:48No!

30:48It's dead.

30:499-1-1, please record your message.

31:06What the hell happened in there?

31:09Wait, wait a minute.

31:10How is this possible?

31:12These were our samples.

31:13What samples?

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, so that's where the lab tech turned.

31:31You hear that?

31:33Another one?

31:35What?

31:36How are we going to get out of here?

31:50How are we going to get out of here?

32:04We can't leave, Colin.

32:05Why?

32:07We can't take this.

32:08We can't let them leave.

32:09We won't.

32:09We can take this.

32:10We can't leave.

32:12We can't let them leave.

32:13We can't let them't leave.

32:14Oh my god!

32:15What do you think this would be so tough?

32:27Irene?

32:32It sounded like you need a help.

32:38What do you want to know?

32:40Everything.

32:42Four years ago.

32:44Victory.

32:45The research vessel of Morrell Biotech starting its two-year voyage in Antarctica.

32:54That's my twin sister.

32:56But what happened to the ship after Antarctica?

32:58It was found tied to a dock in Chile.

33:02Why Chile?

33:03They wanted to hide the fact that the entire crew had died, including my sister.

33:08Sorry, but why would they try to hide it?

33:12Because they wanted people to believe that victory was still in service.

33:17What happened to it after that?

33:18I found it tied to a dry dock in Savannah.

33:21And what I saw in there was the closest thing to hell I've ever witnessed.

33:26It was like a massacre had taken place inside.

33:31Except there were no bodies of the missing crew.

33:33I kept moving in and there it was.

33:37It was a large room and when I pulled the curtain, I opened the gate to hell.

33:44When I pulled the curtain, I opened the gate to hell.

33:54I got bitten, but I didn't turn.

34:19So, the original samples were not infectious?

34:27These samples are clearly recognized.

34:30Who did this?

34:32Wait, what about...

34:35Let's go.

34:37His brother was a microbiologist on Victory.

34:40Edgar.

34:41We investigated the ship together.

34:42Wait, so he created those things in his basement?

34:45He upgraded the sample?

34:47There's more?

34:47You know, I bet he knows more than he's letting on about all of this.

34:51Especially those corpses in the basement.

34:53I'm going to head back to the police station.

34:55I'll go with you.

34:56No, I need you to stay here and secure this place until the officers come.

34:58Can you do that?

35:00Okay.

35:00Look, and you know what?

35:01Now that we know what we're dealing with, maybe you could do some more work and come up with a solution.

35:04Be safe.

35:05And you come with me.

35:06I need your help.

35:07Go.

35:17What's up, Albert?

35:25What do you mean, gone?

35:28I'm on my way.

35:39Albert?

35:40No, okay, you've got to deal with them.

35:57It's hard to find these people.

35:59Lost on Chucks.

36:04Lock it down, people!

36:05He still isn't picking up.

36:10Just keep trying!

36:12Drop your weapons!

36:14You come out with your end up!

36:1713.

36:20I still don't understand, though.

36:22The corpses in the basement seemed fine.

36:25Maybe they got treated somehow?

36:26I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.

36:37Is he answering?

36:38I would just not like them to not answer.

36:40Damn it!

36:42I can't take your weapons!

36:48Run!

36:50How is this possible?

36:53They're exactly the same.

36:56Where'd they go?

37:06Damn it.

37:06Get on the ground!

37:07Hands up!

37:08It's not Rethink!

37:09It's not me!

37:22Edgar's gone.

37:23It looks like they came from down this way.

37:26There's an elevator.

37:29Yeah, that's it.

37:31Those lead to the morgue.

37:32Why are you not answering your phone?

37:40Why are you not answering your phone?

37:52No!

37:53No!

37:54No!

38:00No!

38:12You need to get out of here.

38:14What are you doing?

38:41Where do you think this goes?

38:42I don't know, but anything's fine. I don't know.

38:59I need to call the National Guard.

39:07What?

39:09Who exactly do you work for?

39:12Who exactly do you work for?

39:14Who exactly do you work for?

39:16Who exactly do you work for?

39:18Who exactly do you work for?

39:20This is just the beginning.
