00:00that day I had no idea what kind of hell we were heading into we humans thinking we were so smart
00:16ended up unleashing our own worst nightmares at the beginning it was all about making the world
00:21but before we knew it things spun out of control mistakes were made and
00:28well you've seen how it all went down from there
00:58oh
01:00oh
01:10are you leaving
01:28what's wrong
01:31nothing
01:32just if we could pretend that didn't happen that would be great
01:36did I do something wrong
01:38I'll see ya
01:40see ya
01:41you better have a really good
01:52I know but it's up to you to decide whether this is a serious incident or just some crazy prank
02:00I thought you might want to come down and see this
02:07boom
02:11Oh
02:15what what what what what what what
02:17The homeowner's been seized for almost two years, and the house has been vacant ever since.
02:43Last night, a passerby called the police saying they heard some creepy banging and screaming coming from inside the house.
02:49When the police got here, they found the back door wide open, like busted out from the inside.
02:54When we got here, there was nothing like this.
02:57Are you sure they're all dead?
03:00From a medical perspective, yes.
03:03What is this Morse code thing? What is that telling us?
03:06That's an AUG. It's measuring the brain activity of the corpses.
03:09The brain activity?
03:11Yeah, it's fascinating, actually.
03:13Brain activity doesn't immediately cease after death. It actually can last up to 72 hours.
03:18Okay, so you're saying they died within the last three days?
03:22Only a little bit of time to confirm that.
03:26And the liquids? What are these?
03:30Well, those are all about keeping the bodies fresh. Keeping a monicum of brain activity going on.
03:37So you're saying your bodies are being kept here by someone?
03:41Looks like. My question is why?
03:44Maybe for some bio experiments or, I don't know, black market organ trading or something.
03:50We might need to consult someone to see what's really going on here.
03:54Well, I'm more concerned about who they are and how they died.
03:57Well, we're on it.
04:01What is it?
04:07Is this bed empty the whole time?
04:09Do you think I was someone here before as well?
04:27Don't bother. The community is still waiting on repairs from the hurricane.
04:30That was two months ago.
04:32Welcome to the efficiency of the city and poor neighborhoods.
04:35We should know that.
04:36You think we should leave a few officers here to stake out the place for a few days?
04:40That's your call, but I think it's clearly abandoned.
04:44Looks like we have a big problem.
04:46And it's not so abandoned after all.
04:51Low 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
04:53The activity of the sample significantly increases.
04:57Professor, are we starting the live experiment today?
05:01No, I don't think it's a good time.
05:04But according to our agreement with Morel Biotech, we need to assess the sample's cold intolerance as soon as possible.
05:11Listen, I don't think they're being straight with us about the samples.
05:16Well, um, they don't need to be straight with us as long as they pay up, right?
05:21The first round of live experiments wiped out all of our test subjects.
05:25That one, that two, all of them.
05:31Don't you think we should tread a little carefully?
05:33I think, uh, mice don't have bills to pay or loans to settle.
05:37Once we figure out it's parasitic mode, then we'll give the experiment another shot.
05:42Why did they pull their funding because of that?
05:44They won't.
05:46They need these answers, just like you said.
05:55He's been dead for several days.
06:01Okay, so why no signs of decomposition?
06:04That's because of those things.
06:06Take a look at this.
06:08It's likely he died from frostbite.
06:10Okay, why are we picking up brainwaves, then, of a guy that's been dead for several days?
06:13Not sure.
06:15Is it possible he's still alive?
06:19Yep.
06:21There's a doornail.
06:22Seriously, George.
06:23What?
06:24Oh, come on, that was awesome, and you know it.
06:26Roger's expecting a report first thing in the morning.
06:32Yeah, I'm gonna get to it later.
06:33I need a break.
06:35Wanna get a drink?
06:36Uh, my son just called, and you know this job's already ruining my marriage.
06:39And you want me to go home smelling like a bar?
06:41Okay, my bad, I'm sorry.
06:43It's okay.
06:44You just behave yourself.
06:45Don't I always?
06:47Yeah.
06:51Another one?
06:53Yeah, why not?
06:57Drinking a loom tonight?
07:07Slumming it in police bars, now I see.
07:10What can I get for you?
07:12I'll have what he's at me.
07:13So, what are you doing here?
07:15Sounded like you had a pretty big case to run off to this morning.
07:18Yeah, I just had a really stressful day and needed to blow off some steam.
07:23Would you like some help with that?
07:26No, no, no, no, no.
07:52No, no, no, no, no.
07:57My baby boy.
08:08So, you're going to give me the keys to let me go, officer?
08:13It's detective.
08:14Oh, yeah, all right, detective.
08:17Keys?
08:18Who's this?
08:18That is my mother and my little brother.
08:23Oh, he's adorable.
08:25Yeah, he's 12.
08:28His name's Mickey.
08:31More interrogations, detective.
08:33I think the real interrogation is actually about to start.
08:37If you can handle it.
08:38I think I can give a shot.
08:48You're telling me that I got dead bodies with brainwaves that we can't even identify?
09:07I'm sorry, sir.
09:08Look, we tapped into the national database, and we've got nothing to tell us who they are.
09:11No IDs, no medical records, nothing.
09:14Just some marks on their arms, or we're assuming they're track marks from drug use.
09:17You've got to keep quiet about this kind of thing, okay, until we know more.
09:21You wouldn't be surprised how something like this can affect a vote in this town, and the election is next month.
09:26You've got to be smart about how we handle this.
09:29What do you got there, boy?
09:40What in the world?
09:43Lord knows what this place will become if Jay Spencer got the election.
09:48Sir, I need to take this.
09:50Yes?
09:52Where?
09:54Okay.
09:56What now?
09:56Ah, they found two new bodies.
09:59What?
09:59Fresh ones.
10:00Where?
10:01Down by the lake.
10:05Well, are you coming?
10:14Looks like it rained pretty hard down here.
10:17It's going to be difficult to find any prints or cracks.
10:26That is my mother.
10:29Damn it, George.
10:34I know these two.
10:35I know these two.
10:44I was just a kid.
10:50Hey, man, I'm so sorry for your loss.
10:53This is going to be really hard.
10:55I think that you live your own for a bit, so I can watch my own part.
10:58Come with me, okay?
11:04Look, I need this wrapped up now, all right?
11:07The election is coming up.
11:09People are getting nervous.
11:10With this clipper coming in,
11:12it's going to drop below 32 degrees in the next few days.
11:16Make sure to bother us.
11:17No drugs, no toxins.
11:24Victims were bitten.
11:26Bitten by what?
11:27Dunno.
11:28Albert thinks it could be gorillas.
11:30You're kidding, right?
11:31A gorilla?
11:32Maybe you want to escape from the zoo.
11:34Yeah, okay.
11:39What do you think?
11:41You know, I'm going to be back in a little bit.
11:43What?
11:44But Hodge is expecting us for a meeting.
11:46You got this.
11:47You got this.
11:48I got this.
11:51I got this.
11:52I got this.
11:53I got this.
12:01I got this.
12:02I got this.
12:02I got this.
12:03I got this.
12:04I got this.
12:04I got this.
12:05I got this.
12:06I got this.
12:06I got this.
12:07I got this.
12:07I got this.
12:08I got this.
12:08I got this.
12:09I got this.
12:09I got this.
12:10I got this.
12:10I got this.
12:11I got this.
12:11I got this.
12:12I got this.
12:12I got this.
12:13I got this.
12:14I got this.
12:15I got this.
12:16I got this.
12:17I got this.
12:18I got this.
12:19I got this.
12:20I got this.
12:21I got this.
12:22Last night I passed away, I called the flyer to bust it out.
12:48Hello? Is anyone there?
13:14Is anyone there?
13:16So you knew him?
13:32Oof.
13:33I'll never forget Christmas morning.
13:35Stepping outside the back of the house and seeing old Frank there frozen like an ice sculpture.
13:39Frostbite.
13:40Mmm.
13:41No.
13:42Dead.
13:43Beyond dead.
13:45Must have fell asleep drunk in the dish the night before.
13:49Yeah, it snowed all night the night before.
13:51Took me two hours just to chip him out of the ice.
13:54So if he died last Christmas, how is he here on this table?
13:57It's more your department, detective.
13:59I'll leave you to it.
14:00You look.
14:01Hey.
14:02Hey.
14:03I think I found your gorilla.
14:06I see.
14:07Alright, thanks buddy.
14:08They're fake plates.
14:09You can't trace anything.
14:10Gosh, you left some men there.
14:11No, it's my fault.
14:12I mean, I never thought they'd come back.
14:13Oh, yeah boys.
14:14This is it.
14:15This is it?
14:16Yeah, she always said this is it.
14:20He's a very good guy.
14:21If you say so.
14:22You say so, man.
14:23You're going to buy him.
14:25Oh yeah boys, this is it. This is it? Yeah, sure I said this is it.
14:35It's a perfect item. You say so, man.
14:42It's freezing.
14:47Jump's gonna freeze all the years, man.
14:50Superman doesn't have asthma.
14:54Hey Superman!
14:57Text one more and see where she is.
14:59Hey guys, I think we're sucking in a war.
15:06Are you sure? Last Christmas?
15:10I checked the records. No mistake.
15:12We're sure about one. I bet the others are connected too.
15:15Tell me about this other case.
15:17To the dead woman and child with bite marks.
15:20The killer was, what'd you call it, a...
15:22A gorilla?
15:24What, they steal its banana?
15:26I think the cases might be linked.
15:29How so?
15:31So at the first scene, there was that bed that was empty.
15:34I think there was someone there before.
15:36But somehow they got up...
15:38They got away...
15:41And started killing people.
15:47I mean, of course it's just a theory.
15:48Yeah, yeah, well good thing it's just a theory.
15:50What am I supposed to do if it's true, huh?
15:52Call some ghostbusters?
15:53Hey, I'm sure whatever or whoever this is, they are human.
15:58Ghosts can't kill people.
16:00Right?
16:01Right.
16:02Right.
16:03Yeah.
16:04But y'all, uh...
16:06Y'all go out and find whoever...
16:07Or, uh...
16:08Whatever.
16:09Did this.
16:15You think we should call the police?
16:17We'll leave it here.
16:18Call the cops when we're better.
16:20But after we shoot.
16:25This dump is where you chose to film?
16:27Hey.
16:33Oh.
16:34I'm sorry.
16:35No, no problem.
16:37Why don't you go home?
16:39No, no, I'd like to keep working.
16:41Take a look at this.
16:44I discovered that they have acute sensitivity to temperature.
16:48Below 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
16:50The sample is in a sort of hibernation phase.
16:53But, when it's warmer, the sample becomes more active.
16:59Upon the discovery of a host body,
17:01it lays eggs like crazy,
17:02kills the host,
17:03and then goes through a sort of metamorphosis of sorts.
17:07Once it's within comfortable temperature range,
17:10that's when it starts reproducing
17:12and eventually taking over the host body's entire central nervous system.
17:18What does that have to do with temperature?
17:20Well, I'm not exactly sure yet.
17:22I noticed, too, that when submerged in water for too long,
17:25the activities decreased there, too.
17:27But, as soon as it is back in oxygen-rich environments,
17:31they bounce back in a matter of minutes.
17:36Ew. Gross. Get off me.
17:38That was great, guys.
17:40Oh, man, I'm out of here. I got another gig.
17:42Another film?
17:43Nah, bachelor at party.
17:45What the hell?
17:46Drop.
17:47That thing, it moves.
17:48It's either open.
17:49Hey, hey dude, are you okay?
17:59Morel Biotech claims this sample's from the Antarctic ice.
18:02Mm-hmm.
18:03They're lying.
18:05There's no way they would stumble upon a chunk of ice in Antarctica with its sample still intact.
18:10They definitely found a host body.
18:14They never should have brought it out of Antarctica.
18:16Antarctica is melting, professor.
18:18We're gonna come into contact with it anyway.
18:20They just want us to fix the sample's cold sensitivity.
18:23Well, I need to make sure it's safe first, don't I?
18:27The sample is in Petri dishes.
18:29That is as safe as it gets.
18:32I'm sorry about your family.
18:35Maybe you need a break.
18:42I wouldn't go in there for a while if I were you guys.
18:44Guys?
19:10Get off me!
19:11Get off me!
19:23Hello?
19:25Hey, oh, hold on.
19:30Holy hell.
19:32I just killed Superman.
19:33Weird, right?
19:43What the hell happened?
19:45Apparently, a guy in the blue Speedo just dashed out into the road.
19:49Fan guy ran him over.
19:52What's weird then?
19:53Looks like he came from that house.
19:56And you won't believe what's inside.
20:03Check it out.
20:04Got the whole superhero crew.
20:13Same kind of marks the mother and son head.
20:15And there's another big surprise we found just before you got here.
20:18It's crazy.
20:19We found this one floating in the water.
20:20You think this is the corpse that escapes?
20:21I think so.
20:22Same outfit.
20:23Even got the same gown.
20:24I'd like to take this one back.
20:25Compared to the samples that we already have.
20:26You know, before the evidence gets contaminated.
20:28All right, Albert, it's yours.
20:31Let's do it.
20:32Got something else I'll show you.
20:33Got something else I'll show you.
20:34Got something else I'll show you.
20:35Yeah.
20:48Of course.
20:53Got something else to show you.
21:01Wow.
21:02Yeah, whole superhero orgy.
21:05But guess who was here but wasn't in the film?
21:07You watched the whole thing, didn't you?
21:11It's not important.
21:13Guess who?
21:14Superman.
21:15Yeah, I bet one of these guys has a biting fetish.
21:19Yeah, okay. Then we need to compare traces.
21:21If we're lucky, we'll rep this case today.
21:23Let's hope so.
21:24Let's hope so.
21:25Let's hope so.
21:30Play some music.
21:32Play some music.
21:45Play some music.
21:46Play some music.
21:50Play some music.
21:52I don't know.
22:22I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.
22:33And? Any useful information?
22:36Not good news.
22:37The bite wounds, including the lethal ones.
22:40Well, they match the dental records of our Superman who got hit by the car.
22:44I knew it. Case closed.
22:48No, wait, I don't understand.
22:49How did he get involved with the corpses in the basement?
22:52I ran into that guy in that house, remember?
22:55Yeah. Was he wearing a red Speedo?
22:58No, but he was also more filled out than your Speedo guy.
23:02Maybe they have another accomplice.
23:04Maybe.
23:07Okay.
23:09I need a hot shower and a hot date after today.
23:13Go ahead. I'll write the report.
23:15You sure?
23:15Go on.
23:16Oh, and tell your hot date.
23:19I'm sorry to hear about this.
23:23How'd you know?
23:24Partners know things.
23:25Oh.
23:25Oh.
23:26Oh.
23:39Oh.
23:43Suspicious vehicle found on Dunham Street.
24:03You need to check some plates, please.
24:07Amen.
24:08Amen.
24:10I'm so sorry about your family.
24:13Professor, I know it's kind of soon, but I was wondering if it could work on the experiment tonight.
24:18Oh, I don't think the call-in is going to be up to doing that today.
24:21Actually, I could use the distraction.
24:25I'll be at the lab later this afternoon.
24:27I'll see you.
24:33Hi, George.
24:34We found the gray sedan.
24:36Yeah.
24:36Plates have been changed, but it's the one.
24:39Just send me the address. I'll be right there.
24:40Yeah.
24:41I'm so sorry.
24:42No, it's fine.
24:43Yeah.
24:43Seriously.
24:49What do we got?
24:51Well, car's clean, but we found some fingerprints on a wrench in the toolkit.
24:55It belonged to this guy.
24:56He served a year in prison for armed robbery, but that's about it.
25:00He could be our guy.
25:01What else do we know about him?
25:02Absolutely nothing.
25:04So I know they're both.
25:05Great.
25:05Let's go see if anyone's seen him at that hotel over there.
25:08Let's go see if anyone's seen him at that hotel over there.
25:09I don't know.
25:10I don't know.
25:26Hands behind your head.
25:27Endangered animal protection association.
25:35Journalist.
25:36So what's so newsworthy about her?
25:38Why were you at that house?
25:43I'm not talking without my lawyer.
25:46Brions.
25:47No way.
25:48This is what led to aggression among the same species.
26:01Brions cause mutations in the central nervous system, while the toxoplasma keeps the brainstem
26:06and cerebellum connected with the nerves.
26:09They basically created a whole new system within the host organism.
26:13You're a genius.
26:15We've just modified these samples and made them more adaptable to low temperatures.
26:20That's exactly what our sponsor wanted.
26:22But they're prions.
26:24It's going to be more difficult for them to spread if they become cold resistant.
26:29We can't hand them over until the risks are assessed.
26:35We can't let things get out of control.
26:42Are you going to cooperate or what?
26:47Well then I can assure you, the next 48 hours are going to be pretty rough for you, my friend.
26:56Colin.
26:59Yeah, you're dating as an expert in toxoplasmosis, if you didn't know.
27:04Colin?
27:05Why don't you show them the corpses you found in the basement?
27:08Maybe you'll find something very interesting.
27:16Are you going to follow his advice?
27:18You know, I always thought there was something weird about those corpses, so yeah, it might not be a bad idea.
27:22All right, you go find Colin.
27:25I'll just stay.
27:26You can find a way to make him talk.
27:31I don't like this.
27:32It's dangerous.
27:34I can just do everything here myself.
27:36No, we need to get him back to the official lab so Colin can make an assessment.
27:39There's too much research to do to figure out how this happened.
27:42We should have given him Frank instead.
27:43I mean, he's just been laying here since he came in.
27:45No, this one is by far the bigger mystery.
27:47Yes, yes, ma'am.
28:03I promise you, if re-elected, I will make sure that happens.
28:06I only want what's best for the citizens, and I will always do what it takes to keep our town safe.
28:13As this cold prep moves away, temperatures will start to rise this week, and we'll be getting high-key.
28:17Here, take this.
28:26He'll be glad for the caffeine.
28:28Thanks.
28:29You 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.
28:37I know.
28:38I actually...
28:40Tell me about her.
28:45She's very smart.
28:47Very focused.
28:48Probably the best assistant I've ever had.
28:51How'd you meet her?
28:52About two years ago, she started with the team.
28:55And then, within two months, she secured a targeted research sponsorship from Morel Biotech.
29:01Morel Biotech?
29:02Yes.
29:03Why?
29:03Okay, so I looked into this ship.
29:06It's an Antarctic research vessel owned by Morel Biotech.
29:10Hmm.
29:10I mean, the research project sponsored by Morel Biotech was to test the toxoplasma samples brought back from Antarctica.
29:21Okay, her and I need to have a conversation.
29:23Do you think you can get her to come in?
29:25Yeah, I can give her a call and see if she's available.
29:27Sure, if the professor calls her, she'll come.
29:29You know, she did say something weird earlier.
29:34Something along the lines of, we can't let things get out of control.
29:43Oh, that's crazy.
29:45Well, I've never done an MRI on a dead body before, so...
29:49Oh, my God! What's going on?
29:53I thought he was 10.
29:5510, what are you doing?
29:5810?
29:5910!
30:0010!
30:0010!
30:0010!
30:0010!
30:0110!
30:0110!
30:0110!
30:0210!
30:0210!
30:07What was that?
30:07I don't know.
30:10Hello, professor?
30:13Hello?
30:15What happened?
30:19Hey!
30:26What the hell are you?
30:28Bregan, we need to get out of here.
30:31Don't move!
30:31Don't come any closer!
30:36Is it dead?
30:38It's dead already.
30:40It's okay.
30:493-1-1, please record your message.
30:56What the hell happened in there?
31:00Wait, wait a minute.
31:02How is this possible?
31:03These were our samples.
31:04Samples?
31:05The body you brought in, it got infected by samples from Antarctica.
31:09Then what Antarctic samples?
31:10I'll explain later.
31:11Listen, anyone who has contact, especially blood contact, is going to turn into one of them.
31:16Oh, my God.
31:17So that's where the lab tech turned.
31:23You want to do that?
31:24Another one?
31:26What?
31:27How are we going to get out of here?
31:55We can't leave, Pauline!
31:57Why?
31:58We can't take this!
32:00We can't leave, Emily!
32:01We won't think we can take this!
32:05Help!
32:09Do you think there's a police?
32:11Let's help.
32:19Irene?
32:23It sounded like you need a help.
32:25What do you want to know?
32:32Everything.
32:34Four years ago, Victory, the research vessel of Morrell Biotech, starting its two-year voyage
32:41in Antarctica.
32:45That's my twin sister.
32:47But what happened to the ship after Antarctica?
32:49It was found, uh, tied to a dock in Chile.
32:54Why Chile?
32:55They wanted to hide the fact that the entire Cuxa died, including my sister.
33:00Sorry, but why would they try to hide it?
33:04Because they wanted people to believe that Victory was still in service.
33:08What happened to it after that?
33:09I found it tied to a dry dock in Savannah, and what I saw in there was the closest thing
33:16to hell ever was.
33:17It was like a massacre had taken place inside, except there were no bodies of the missing
33:24crew.
33:26I kept moving in, and there it was.
33:28It was a large room, and when I, when I pulled the curtain, they opened the gate to hell.
33:36When I pulled the curtain, they opened the gate to hell.
33:46When I pulled the curtain, they opened the gate to hell.
33:46I, uh, I got bitten, but I didn't turn.
34:11So, the original samples were not infectious?
34:18These samples are clearly weaponized.
34:22Who did this?
34:23Wait, what about...
34:26Let's go.
34:28His brother was a microbiologist on Victory.
34:31Edgar.
34:32We investigated the ship together.
34:33Wait, so he created those things in his basement?
34:36He upgraded the sample?
34:38There's more?
34:39You know, I bet he knows more than he's letting on about all of this.
34:42Especially those corpses in the basement.
34:44I'm gonna head back to the police station.
34:46I'll go with you.
34:47No, I need you to stay here and secure this place until the officers come.
34:49Can you do that?
34:51Okay.
34:51Look, and you know what?
34:52Now that we know what we're dealing with, maybe you could do some more work and come up
34:54with a solution.
34:55Be safe.
34:56And you come with me.
34:57I need your help.
34:58Go.
34:58What's up, Albert?
35:16What do you mean, gone?
35:19I'm on my way.
35:20Okay.
35:20Albert?
35:31Albert?
35:44Look, you've got to keep it in the turn.
35:46No.
35:46Okay, you've got to deal with them.
35:47It's hard to find these people.
35:49Lock it down, people.
36:00He still isn't picking up.
36:01Just keep trying.
36:03Drop your weapon and come out with your end up.
36:08I still don't understand, though.
36:13The corpses in the basement seem fine.
36:16Maybe they got treated somehow?
36:19I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.
36:28There's any answer, though.
36:29It's just not like them to not answer.
36:31Dammit!
36:33I don't care if you want them!
36:38Run!
36:39Run!
36:41How is this possible?
36:43They're exactly the same.
36:49Where'd they go?
36:56Dammit.
36:57Get on the ground!
36:58Hands up!
36:58It's not Rethink!
36:59It's not me!
37:00Edgar's gone.
37:15It looks like they came from down this way.
37:17There's an elevator.
37:19Yeah.
37:20That's it.
37:21Those lead to the morgue.
37:23Why are you not answering your phone?
37:43No!
37:57No!
38:03We need to get out!
38:03We need to get out of here!
38:04We need to get out!
38:04I don't know, but anything's good enough.
38:34I need to call the National Guard.
38:56What?
38:59Who exactly do you work for?
39:04Who exactly do you work for?
39:14What do you work for?
39:17What do you work for?
39:24This is just the beginning.
39:25Oh, my God.
39:55Oh, my God.
40:25Oh, my God.
