(1:33) Cattle mutilations? You gotta be kidding. What's next, the Easter Bunny? Elvis sightings? (1:40) Oh, please. Elvis clones were detained and tagged years before you joined us.
Antacid? (1:46) No, thanks. (1:51) Listen, Agent Logan. Intelligence thinks this merits investigation.
(1:55) Oh, since when does the Alliance have intelligence? (2:00) Cute. Look, Reneker's been gone who knows where for who knows how long, so I've gotta cover his slack on top of my own caseload. (2:08) So do me a favor, huh? Grab Dr. Petrovic, get to Wyoming, and check out them there cows.
(2:15) Petrovic? Why not Shlain? She's my partner. (2:19) Dr. Petrovic's expertise is more relevant to this assignment. A teenage banshee would have nothing to contribute.
(2:25) But saddling me with a lab jockey like Petrovic, I mean... (2:28) Detail will also accompany you. Agent Trueblood will drop you off with a Humvee 30 miles from Medfield. (2:34) They're waiting in the launch bay.
(2:48) Then we brought the specimen back to the lab. It turned out to be my hair. (2:55) Seems this scanner has a reciprocal phase variance that corrupted the database.
(2:59) Can you believe that? Oh, man, Reneker, blame me, but it was definitely Alaskano's fault. (3:06) Oh, my engines are really purring. An actual field assignment after so long in the lab.
Oh, I am so excited. (3:18) You two kids have fun. Oh, and have the good doctor home by dark, huh? (3:22) No running out of gas on a country road, if you get my drift.
(3:26) Oh, stop it, Fitz. You're such a tease. But I won't tell if you won't, handsome.
(3:40) Okay, Chuckles, let's canvas this berg. (3:55) Where is everybody? (3:57) Suppose they heard you were coming and ran for the hills? (4:00) Suppose it's too late to trade you for Dr. Petrovic? (4:03) Yeah, you'd love that. (4:06) What is it? (4:12) Empty town, darting shadows.
If giant ants or spiders come after us, I got dibs on the movie rights. (4:19) Just what the world needs. Another cheesy B-movie.
(4:41) Stay behind me, Doc. (5:01) It's been recently fired. Doc, how about scanning for... (5:05) Doc? (5:08) This is why she belongs behind a desk.
(5:17) Doc, look, I'm the last one to quote protocol, but there are certain things I expect a partner to... (5:22) It's absolutely fascinating. (5:26) There's no match. This species is entirely unknown to science.
(5:31) Par for the course. (5:42) Finding anything? (5:44) Just last night's blue plate special. (5:47) It's like dinner at Aunt Moya's.
No wonder everybody took off. (5:52) Not took. Taken.
(5:55) By devils. (5:57) And those that ain't taken done ran for the hills. (6:02) See? They did know you were coming.
(6:06) What happened here, Pops? (6:11) Them. (6:14) It's getting dark. That's when they come.
(6:19) Who? (6:26) Hey, old man! (7:06) Is the phone still out, Dad? (7:09) Yeah. I tell you what, Kyle. Why don't you get the checkers out? (7:18) Dad, I'm scared.
(7:19) It's okay, son. There's nothing in the dark that isn't there in the daylight. (7:43) Dad! (8:02) What are those? (8:05) Reading chambers.
Appears something has been spawned in here. Artificially. (8:09) Kinda takes the fun out of it.
Stay close. (8:22) Typical. An Alliance flare weapon.
(8:25) Seems Smith-Heiser neglected to mention we were coming late to this party, Doc. (8:31) Doctor... (8:37) Look at this. It's absolutely... (8:39) I know, I know.
Absolutely fascinating. Look, Doc, you and I gotta... (8:43) A bio-fluid containing fusion breed DNA? (8:47) A forest blend of deviant donors. Only one of which I am able to identify.
(8:53) Solenopsis Invicta. Commonly known as... (8:56) Fire ants. We had an infestation when I was a kid.
A neighbor lady never made it out of her bed. (9:01) But somebody here has been fusing the ants' DNA with an alien source. (9:07) And the result popped out of the cake a little miswired.
(9:09) Good news is that there seems to be only four. We should have this cleaned up by... (9:17) Oh, sweet mother of... (9:18) There are more than four now. Egg casings.
They're breeding on their own. (9:26) Hey, lovebirds. No screening your calls? (9:29) Funny, Fitz.
(9:30) Say, if you're not too busy, maybe you could pop over for a neighborly visit at City Hall? (9:34) Whoa! (9:38) BYOB! (9:47) Are you there? (10:01) BYOB? (10:02) Bring your own blasters. (10:10) Watch out! (10:16) Help! (10:18) No, kid! Don't run! (10:54) Oh, this is what I get for skipping Alaskano's vehicle orientation class. (11:06) Oh, yeah! If you can't find them, find them! (11:14) What happened, kid? Where's your folks? (11:16) Those monsters! They took my dad away! (11:25) You saw it happen? (11:27) You have to find them! Please! (11:33) Count on it.
(11:38) Maybe you should drive. (11:50) Where the heck are those two? (11:54) I don't care if he does hit on you. You are going to Alaskano's next class! (12:03) You two want to continue this upstairs? (12:27) What does it take to stop these things? (12:51) Whoa! (12:52) No! (12:57) Oops! I guess I should have made it to the weapons orientation too.
(13:19) What happened? Why'd they... (13:45) Stand down, Agent Logan. (13:47) James? (13:48) I'm all right, Marina. (13:49) Boy, I'm relieved, James.
(13:53) Now if you two will excuse me, I'm going to find some friends of mine who aren't all right. (13:58) Don't bother. They're gone.
The creatures took them and left, just like they did everyone else. (14:04) But what are you doing here? (14:06) Two days ago, I took a task team to check out reports of a secret genetics lab. (14:11) Needless to say, we found it.
I'm the only one who made it out alive. (14:15) How convenient for you. But those hybrid creatures, they have to have a lair or a hive.
(14:22) And something tells me you know where that is too. (14:27) I think I do. (14:32) This creature venom's making me all cozy-wozy.
(14:36) Don't get fresh, Fitzoroni. (14:39) Give me a kissy before I pass out. (14:42) If I kissed you, I'd pass out.
Besides, we got detail work to do. (14:47) Oh, right. Absolutely right.
(14:50) Everybody remain calm. There's a perfectly reasonable explanation to this perfectly reasonable situation. (14:59) A bunch of crazy terrorist kidnappers in Halloween masks.
(15:04) No, wait! (15:04) Or maybe we've been captured by alien monsters that are going to have us for dinner. (15:11) Let's not be silly. Who'd ever believe that one? (15:27) They're about to hatch.
There must be a queen down here somewhere. (15:31) What's your ETA? (15:32) Eight minutes, General. (15:34) Eight minutes until what? (15:36) Until the Alliance incinerates this hive.
Right, General? (15:40) Is that true? What about the captives? (15:42) I can't risk these eggs hatching. (15:46) Come on, Doc. We're wasting our eight minutes.
(15:49) Make that seven and a half minutes. (15:54) Logan. (15:57) I found it at the lab.
(15:59) The clip is loaded with gene-scrambler capsules. (16:02) It's the only thing that'll stop them. (16:03) What are you doing? (16:20) Attack of the Ant Creatures, starring Simon Fitzpatrick, playing his South.
(16:36) Hey, Logan! My buddy-buddy! (16:39) I love you, man! (16:41) Dad? (16:45) No. I'm gonna find him. (16:48) Doc, wake these people up and get out of here as fast as you can.
(16:51) What about you? There's only five minutes left. (16:54) Kyle is one son whose father is not gonna disappear on him. (17:01) Hey, Doc! (17:02) I love you, man.
(17:04) I love you, too. (17:51) Mutant hairless bears. Obviously a result of pollutants in the water supply.
(17:56) We're on it, though. (18:00) Two minutes, General. (18:03) Maintain course.
(18:16) Whoa! (18:41) What a life. (18:45) In ten, nine, eight, seven, six... (18:57) ...five, four, three, two, one. (19:08) I did not ask you for a kissy.
You were clearly hallucinating. (19:13) Oh, right. Something in the water supply, no doubt.
(19:16) Dad! (19:17) Kyle, you're all right. (19:26) Well, I've had enough fieldwork to last me for the rest of my life. (19:30) I don't know how you do it, handsome.
(19:33) Sometimes, I don't either. (19:35) Thanks, Marina. We couldn't have made it through this without you.
(19:38) Do you think the General will ever cop to what really happened in that lab? (19:43) In your dreams.
