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 it
00:20was all about making the world before we knew it things spun out of control
00:28mistakes were made and you've seen how it all went down from there
00:58oh
01:00oh
01:02oh
01:04you leaving what's wrong nothing
01:34just if we could pretend that didn't happen that would be great
01:37did I do something wrong I'll see ya see ya
01:50you better have a really good I know but it's up to you to decide whether this is
01:58a serious incident or just some crazy prank I thought you might want to come
02:03down and see this
02:33the homeowner's 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
02:49coming inside the house when the police got here they found the back door wide open like
02:53busted out from the inside you got here there's nothing
02:56there's nothing this
02:58yeah sure they're all dead from a medical perspective yes when what is this Morse code thing was that
03:06telling us that's an AUG it's measuring the brain activity of the corpses the brain activity yeah
03:13it's fascinating actually a brain activity doesn't immediately cease after death actually can last up to 72 hours
03:19okay so you're saying they died within the last three days
03:23only need a little time to confirm that
03:26and the liquids what are these well those are all about keeping the bodies fresh keeping a moniker
03:37more brain activity going on so you're saying the bodies are being kept here by someone
03:42looks fine my question is why maybe for some bio experiments or I don't know black market organ
03:50trading or something you might need to consult someone to see what's really going on here
03:56you know I'm concerned about who they are and how they died
03:59well we're on it
04:01what is it
04:04is this vet empty the whole time
04:11do you think there was someone here before as well
04:13do you think there was someone here before as well
04:29don't bother
04:30the community is still waiting on repairs from the hurricane
04:32that was two months ago
04:34welcome to the efficiency of the city and poor neighborhoods
04:36you should know that
04:38you think we should leave a few officers here to stick up the place for a few days
04:42that's your call but I think it's clearly abandoned
04:45looks like we have a big problem
04:48and it's not so abandoned after all
04:50low 32 degrees Fahrenheit the activity of the sample significantly increases
04:58professor are we starting the life experiment today
05:02no I don't think it's a good time
05:05but according to our agreement with morale biotech
05:09we need to assess the samples cold intolerance as soon as possible
05:12listen I don't think they're being straight with us about the samples
05:17well
05:19um
05:20they don't need to be straight with us as long as they pay up right
05:23the first round of live experiments wiped out all of our test subjects
05:27found one
05:28found two
05:30all of them
05:32don't you think we should tread a little carefully
05:34I think
05:36uh
05:37mice don't have bills to pay or loans to settle
05:39once you figure out its parasitic mode
05:41then we'll give the experiment another shot
05:44what if they pull their funding because of it
05:46they won't
05:47they need these answers
05:48just like you said
06:01he's been dead for several days
06:02ok so why no signs of decomposition
06:05that's because of those things
06:07take a look at this
06:09it's likely he died from crossbite
06:12ok why are we picking up brain waves then
06:14of a guy that's been dead for several days
06:16not sure
06:17is it possible he's still alive?
06:21yep
06:22there's a doornail
06:23seriously George
06:24what?
06:25oh come on that was awesome and you know it
06:31Roger's expecting a report first thing in the morning
06:34yeah I'm gonna get to it later
06:35I need a break
06:36you wanna get a drink?
06:37uh my son just called
06:40and you know this job's already ruining my marriage
06:41and you want me to go home smelling like a bar?
06:44my bad I'm sorry
06:45it's ok
06:46you just behave yourself

06:56yeah, why not
06:59drinking a womb tonight?
07:00slumping it in police bars now I see
07:12what can I get for you?
07:13I'll have what he's at me
07:15so what are you doing here?
07:17sounded like you had a pretty big case to run off to this morning
07:19yeah I just had a really stressful day and needed to blow off some steam
07:23would you like some help with that?
07:25would you like some help with that?
07:26would you like some help with that?
07:28micky?
07:29no no no no no no no no no
07:32Oh, God.
07:44Mickey?
07:46Mickey?
07:48Mickey?
07:54No!
07:56No, no, no, no, no, no!
07:58My baby boy, he kicked me.
08:10So, you gonna give me the keys to let me go?
08:13Officer.
08:14Hmm.
08:15It's Detective.
08:16Oh, alright, Detective.
08:18Keys?
08:19Who's this?
08:21That is my mother and my little brother.
08:25Oh, he's adorable.
08:27Yeah.
08:28He's 12.
08:29His name's Mickey.
08:34More interrogations, Detective.
08:35Yeah, I think the real interrogation is actually about to start.
08:39If you can handle it.
08:40I think I need a shot.
08:57You're telling me that I got dead bodies with brain waves that we can't even identify?
09:09I'm sorry, sir.
09:10Look, 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.
09:18God.
09:19We gotta keep quiet about this kind of thing, okay?
09:21Until we know why.
09:22You would be surprised how something like this can affect a vote in this town and the election
09:27is next month.
09:28Gotta be smart about how we handle this.
09:30Whoa.
09:31What you got there?
09:32What is that?
09:33What you got there, boy?
09:34What in the world?
09:35Lord knows what this place would become if Jay Spencer got the election.
09:36Sir, I need to take this.
09:37Yes?
09:38Where?
09:39Okay.
09:40What now?
09:41What now?
09:42Uh, they found two new bodies.
09:43What?
09:44Fresh ones.
09:45Where?
09:46Down by the lake.
09:47Oh, well, are you coming?
09:48Oh, well, are you coming?
09:49No.
09:50No.
09:51No.

10:34No.
10:35No.
10:36No.
10:37No.
10:38I was just a kid.
10:54Hey, man, I'm so sorry for your loss.
10:56This is going to be really hard, but I think you'll live alone for a bit, so I can finish my part.
11:01Come with me, okay?
11:08I need this wrapped up now, all right?
11:11The election is coming up.
11:13People are getting nervous.
11:14With this cliffhanger coming in, we expect it to drop below 32 degrees in the next few days.
11:19Make sure to bottle up.
11:25No drugs, no toxins.
11:27Victims were bitten.
11:29Bitten by what?
11:30Dunno.
11:31Albert thinks it could be gorillas.
11:34You're kidding, right?
11:34A gorilla?
11:35Maybe one escaped from the zoo.
11:37Yeah, okay.
11:38What do you think?
11:44You know, I'm going to be back in a little bit.
11:47What?
11:47But Hodge is expecting us for a meeting.
11:50You got this, you got this.
11:51I got this.
11:55I got this.
12:08I got this.
12:28I got this.
12:32Last night, a housefly called the Plymouth.
12:51Yeah.
12:52Yeah.
12:53Yeah.
12:54Yeah.
12:55Yeah.
12:56Yeah.
12:57Yeah.
12:58Yeah.
12:59Yeah.
13:01Yeah.
13:02Hello?
13:03Is anyone there?
13:05Is anyone there?
13:08Is anyone there?
13:23Oh!
13:30So you knew him?
13:31Oof.
13:32Never forget Christmas morning.
13:33Stepping outside the back of the house and seeing old Frank there frozen like an ice sculpture.
13:36Frostbite?
13:37I'll never forget Christmas morning, stepping outside the back of the house and seeing old Frank there frozen like an ice sculpture.
13:44Frostbite.
13:45Mmm. No. Dead. Beyond dead.
13:51Must have fell asleep drunk in the dish the night before.
13:54God, it snowed all night the night before.
13:56Took me two hours just to chip him out of the ice.
13:59So if he died last Christmas, how is he here on this table?
14:03It's more your department, detective.
14:05I'll get you to it.
14:06Hey.
14:08Hi.
14:09I think I found your gorilla.
14:15I see. Alright, thanks, buddy.
14:18They're fake plates.
14:20You can't trace anything.
14:22Gosh, you left some men there.
14:24No, it's my fault. I mean, I never thought they'd come back.
14:32Oh, yeah, boys.
14:33This is it.
14:34This is it.
14:37Yeah.
14:37That's what I said.
14:38This is it.
14:40It's perfect, right?
14:41You say so, man.
14:47It's freezing.
14:50It's freezing.
14:51It's just going to freeze off in here.
14:54It's going to be an asthma.
14:56Superman doesn't have asthma.
14:59Hey, Superman.
15:02Text one moment, see where she is.
15:04Hey, guys.
15:05I think there's something in the water.
15:06Are you sure?
15:09Are you sure?
15:13Last Christmas?
15:14I checked the records.
15:15No mistake.
15:16We're sure about one.
15:18I bet the others are connected, too.
15:20Tell me about this other case.
15:22It's the dead woman and child with bite marks.
15:25The killer was, what'd you call it, a gorilla?
15:29What, they steal its banana?
15:30I think the cases might be linked.
15:35How so?
15:37So, at the first scene, there was that bed that was empty.
15:39Now, I think there was someone there before.
15:42But somehow they got up.
15:45They got away.
15:47And started killing people.
15:48I 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?
15:57Call some ghostbusters?
15:59Hey, I'm sure whatever or whoever this is, they are human.
16:04Ghosts can't kill people, right?
16:07Right.
16:07Right.
16:08Right?
16:09Yeah.
16:10All right, y'all, uh, y'all go out and find whoever or whatever it is.
16:18You think we should call the police?
16:23Leave it here.
16:24Call the cops when I'm better.
16:26But after we shoot.
16:30This dump is where you chose to film?
16:37Hey.
16:38Oh.
16:39I'm sorry.
16:41No, no problem.
16:43Why don't you go home?
16:44No, no, I'd like to keep working.
16:47Take a look at this.
16:48I discovered that they have acute sensitivity to temperature.
16:54Below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the sample is in a sort of hibernation phase.
16:59But when it's warmer, the sample becomes more active.
17:04Upon the discovery of a host body, it lays eggs like crazy,
17:08kills 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
17:18taking over the host body's entire central nervous system.
17:21Oh, my God.
17:22What does that have to do with temperature?
17:26Well, I'm not exactly sure yet.
17:28I noticed, too, that when submerged in water for too long, the activities decrease there, too.
17:32But as soon as it is back in oxygen-rich environments, they bounce back in a matter of minutes.
17:42Ew.
17:43Gross.
17:43Get off me.
17:44That was great, guys.
17:46Oh, man.
17:47I'm out of here.
17:47I got another gig.
17:48Another film?
17:49No, bachelor at party.
17:51What the hell?
17:52What's wrong?
17:53That thing, it moves.
17:54Its eyes are open.
17:57Hey, hey, hey, are you okay?
18:05Morrell Biotech claims this sample's from the Antarctic ice.
18:08Mm-hmm.
18:09They're lying.
18:11There's no way they would stumble upon a chunk of ice in Antarctica with its sample still intact.
18:16They definitely found a host body.
18:20They never should have brought it out of Antarctica.
18:22Antarctica is melting, Professor.
18:24We're going to come into contact with it anyway.
18:27They just want us to fix the sample's cold sensitivity.
18:29Well, I need to make sure it's safe first, don't I?
18:33The sample is in petri dishes.
18:35That is as safe as it gets.
18:38I'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.
18:52Guys?
18:53Guys?
19:01Yeah!
19:01Get off me!
19:17Get off me!
19:29Hello?
19:31Hey, oh, hold on.
19:36Holy hell.
19:38I just killed Superman.
19:48Weird, right?
19:49What the hell happened?
19:50Apparently, a guy in the blue Speedo just dashed out into the road.
19:54Fan guy ran him over.
19:57What's weird then?
19:58Looks like he came from that house.
20:01You won't believe what's inside.
20:08Check it out.
20:09Got the whole superhero crew.
20:19Same kind of marks the mother and son head.
20:21And there's another big surprise we found just before you got here.
20:24It was crazy. We found this one floating in the water.
20:35You think this is the corpse that escapes?
20:37You think so?
20:38Same outfit.
20:39Even got the same gown.
20:40Same gown.
20:41I'd like to think this one back.
20:47Compared to the samples that we already have.
20:49You know, before the evidence gets contaminated.
20:52All right, Albert.
20:53It's yours.
20:54I guess I'm not to show you.
20:55Wow.
20:56Yeah.
20:57Whole superhero orgy.
20:58But guess who was here but wasn't in the film?
20:59You watched the whole thing, didn't you?
21:03It's not important.
21:04Guess who?
21:05Superman.
21:06Yeah, I bet one of these guys has a biting fetish.
21:07Yeah, okay.
21:08Then we need to compare traces.
21:09If we're lucky, we'll rep this case today.
21:10Let's hope so.
21:11Mm-hmm.
21:12Mm-hmm.
21:13Mm-hmm.
21:14What's wrong with Mike?
21:15Yeah.
21:16How far is he?
21:17I guess he was here but wasn't in the film.
21:18You watched the whole thing, didn't you?
21:19It's not important.
21:20Guess who?
21:21Superman.
21:22Mm-hmm.
21:23I bet one of these guys has a biting fetish.
21:25Yeah, okay.
21:26Then we need to compare traces.
21:27If we're lucky, we'll rep this case today.
21:29Let's hope so.
21:30Mm-hmm.
21:31Play some music.
22:01Play some music.
22:31Play some music.
22:36I 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.
22:46Will they match the dental records of our Superman who got hit by the car?
22:50I knew it.
22:52Case closed.
22:53No, wait.
22:54I don't understand.
22:55How did he get involved with the corpses in the basement?
22:59I ran into that guy in that house, remember?
23:01Yeah.
23:02Was 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.
23:10Maybe.
23:12Okay.
23:13I need a hot shower and a hot date after today.
23:19Go ahead.
23:20I'll write the report.
23:21You sure?
23:22Go on.
23:23Oh, and tell your hot date.
23:25I'm sorry to hear about this today.
23:27How'd you know?
23:30Partners know things.
23:31Bye your full phone.
23:41I'm sorry.
23:42I'm sorry
23:43I'm sorry.
23:44I'm sorry, man.
23:46I'm sorry.
23:47I'm sorry, Dan.
23:48I can hear you.
23:53I will see you on mic.
23:55Suspicious 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.
24:24Uh, 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.
24:35I'll see you.
24:40Hi, George.
24:41We found the gray sedan.
24:43Yeah.
24:43Plates have been changed, but it's the one.
24:46Send me the address. I'll be right there.
24:47Yeah.
24:48I'm so sorry.
24:49No, it's fine.
24:50Yeah.
24:50Seriously.
24:51No.
24:51What have we got?
24:58Well, car's clean, but we found some fingerprints on a wrench in the toolkit that belonged to this guy.
25:04Yeah, 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?
25:10Absolutely nothing.
25:11Sign up there about him.
25:12Thanks.
25:13Uh, let's go see if anyone's seen him at that hotel over there.
25:31I don't know.
25:33Hands behind your head.
25:34Endangered Animal Protection Association.
25:42Journalist.
25:43So what's so newsworthy about her?
25:49Why were you at that house?
25:52I'm not talking without my lawyer.

26:50Are 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.
27:03Colin.
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 him the quarters you found in the basement?
27:16If you find something very interesting.
27:20Are you going to follow his advice?
27:26You know, I always thought there was something weird about this corpse,
27:28so yeah, it might not be a bad idea.
27:31Alright, you go find Colin.
27:33Instead,
27:34you 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.
27:55Yes, 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.
28:21As this cold press moves away, temperatures will start to rise this week and we'll be getting hungry.
28:25Here, take this.
28:34You'll be glad for the caffeine.
28:36Thanks.
28:37You know,
28:38you could have told me what was going on and maybe had some faith in my
28:42multiple 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.
29:03Then, 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 for 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...
29:58Oh my God, what's going on?
30:01My body was dead.
30:03Hey, what are you doing?
30:04What the f*** was that?
30:16I don't know.
30:18Hello, professor?
30:22Hello?
30:23Hey, what happened?
30:32Hey!
30:33What the hell are you?
30:37Regan, we need to get out of here.
30:40Don't, don't, don't come any closer!
30:43Is it dead?
30:47It's dead already.
30:48It's dead already.
30:509-1-1, 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?
31:13The 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 again.
31:25Oh my God.
31:26So that's where the lab tech turned.
31:31You hear that?
31:32I'm not going to.
31:35What?
31:36How are we going to get out of here?
32:04We can't leave, Molly.
32:05Why?
32:07We can't take this.
32:08We can't let them leave.
32:09We left, we can take this.
32:14What do you think this is a police?
32:19Let's help.
32:19Irene?
32:32It sounded like you need a help.
32:33what do you want to know everything four years ago victory the research vessel of morel biotech
32:48starting its two-year voyage to antarctica
32:51that's my twin sister but what happened to the ship after antarctica it was found tied to a dog
33:01in chile why chile they wanted to hide the fact that the entire crew had died including my sister
33:07sorry but why would they try to hide it because they wanted people to believe that victory was

34:39edgar we investigated the ship together
34:42wait so he created those things in his basement
34:44he upgraded the sample
34:46there's more
34:47you know i bet he knows more than he's letting on about all of this
