Okay, we have to stop.
We have to stop.

I guess.

I really wanna wait, you know?

- 1 know.
- You're mad.

I’m not mad.

Good, because, you know,
it’s not that I don’t want to.

Because ! do.
I really want to.

Me too. But if we’re gonna stop,
let’s just stop now. Okay?

It won't be that long. I mean,
we'll get married right after we graduate.

The day after we graduate.

- What’s a year?
- It’s nothing. It’s nothing.

Yeah.

- have to go.
- But it’s still early.

Yeah, but I can barely walk as it is.

This is killing me.

But it’s worth it, isn’t it?

I don’t think this is the best time
to be asking me that question.

Ah, of course it’s worth it.

You're worth it.

I think this whole abstinence thing
could be a good thing.

Maybe. I think.

I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.

I’ll meet you in the library
after your early class.

I love you.

- l love you.
- love you too.

There is nothing wrong
with your television.

Do not attempt
to adjust the picture.

We are now controlling
the transmission.

We control the horizontal...

and the vertical.

We can deluge you
with a thousand channels...

or expand one single image
to crystal clarity...

and beyond,

We can shape your vision...

to anything
our imagination can conceive.

For the next hour...

we will controf
alf that you see and hear.

You are about to experience
the awe and mystery...

which reaches from
the deepest inner mind to...

The Outer Limits.

Humankind has long tried
to tame the forces of nature...

to harness their power for our needs.

But what if the very needs that drive us
are the greatest power of all?

Will we be able to control ourselves?

Hey, Jay.
What ya doin’ back here? Hiding?

Hey, Karl. No,
I’m just waiting for Hannah.

You guys are still goin’ out?
How long?

About a year now.

No way. A year. Whoa.

You must be gettin’ some by now.

Sorry, man.
I went out with her myself.

You don’t even have to tell me.

I didn’t even get close.
You get close?

*Cause sometimes
if you get close, it’s worse.

Yeah, well, unlike you, Karl,
I don’t kiss and tell.

Yeah? Right.
You're on the bench.

That girl is colder than i—

How was class?

Whoa. Maybe I'll just
see you guys later.

- Make love to me.
- What? Here?

Now.

- What happened to waiting?
-l need you.

I need you.

If you think this is what I want,
you’re wrong.

Whoa! Hannah! Cut it out!

What’s gotten into you?

I wanna marry you. I love you.

Get as far away from me as you can.

- What did I say?
- Go.

Okay.

You want me.

What?

I remember from before.

Did you and Jay
have a fight or something?

I need you.

I need you.

You remember Lisa, my girlfriend—

Okay, now, like all other
single-celled animals...

the amoeba has to absorb particles
in order to survive.

Now, unlike a paramecium
or other protozoa...

that propel themselves
forward with cilia...

the amoeba extends its own membrane
outward in the form of a pseudopod.

Now, once it envelops the particle
that it’s trying to absorb...

it creates a vacuole.

Now, once inside
the ectoplasm itself...

the particle is— well, it’s—

it’s basically screwed, so—

That’s it today, guys.
Lights, please.

Be sure to study this stuff, guys, because
it will be on the test. 1 guarantee you.

- Sorry.
- Oh, Professor Stein.

I'll be gone in a minute. I just
gotta find—I put it here somewhere.

’ll be gone before your class starts.
Don’t worry.

- Actually, it’s over.
- What?

Oh, God, see?
That’s why I’m losing my mind.

There it is.

Thank God. Cure for cancer.

I just keep leaving it around places.

I’m glad you showed up. 1 was gonna see if
I could get out of this afternoon’s class.

Oh, you wanna switch? Want me to be
your teaching assistant, huh?

All right.
I'll tell you something.

Biology 101. Great course.
Bores the hell out of me.

Fine. I’ll take the class.

You will? What’s the matter? You’re not
gonna fight? You depressed or something?

I think Hannah broke up with me.

You think? See, when my wife left me,
she left no room for doubt.

Well, ! mean,
we're in the library, right?

One second she’s all over me...

and the next second
she’s screaming at me...

telling me to get
as far away from her as I can.

Oh. Yeah. I recall my wife
saying that every now and then.

Yeah, but this isn’t Hannah. mean,
we've been going out for a long time.

But when it comes to sex,
she doesn’t exactly—

She doesn’t exactly—

Exactly.

One second she’s practically wanting
to doit right there in the library...

and the next minute she’s yelling at me,
telling me to stay away from her.

Well, never underestimate
the power of estrogen.

Powerful things, sex hormones.
Powerful things.

Probably the most underestimated source
of energy in the universe.

- Hormones.
- Oh, yeah.

That’s the engine
that drives humanity.

After all, it’s the mechanism
for procreation, desire, love.

It drives you to the heights of ecstasy,
or it drives you crazy.

Can't have one without the other,
unfortunately.

Maybe you should write a thesis
on their untapped energy potential.

I see why she left you now.

Well, hope you have
better luck than I did.

Thanks, Professor.

Take it easy.
I got a game tonight.

-l need you.
- I’m serious.

-1 gotta conserve my energy here.
- need your energy.

Where is he?

Come on, Hannah.
I followed you guys here.

Where is he?

Go away!

Get out of me.

Please don’t make me do this.

This is Hannah, can’t come to the phone.
Leave me a message, I'll call you back.

Hi, Hannah, it’s Lisa.

/ guess you're out with Jay. ! was
wondering ifyou know where Karl is.

He skipped all his classes this afternoon,
and he was supposed to meet me.

He’s probably in some bar
with the guys.

But, anyways, ifyou have a clue,
give me a call, okay? Thanks.

Hi. Hannah?
Yeah, My name’s Rob.

/ don’t know if you've ever noticed me.
I'm in your art history class.

/ sure noticed you today.

So, ! was hopin’ maybe
we could go out sometime.

1 call you back.

Hannah, it’s Dr. Shipley calling.

/ was just reading over your essay
on the Victorian Era...

and, well, ever since we bumped into
each other in the hallway this morning...

/ was actually thinking about just
how fascinating your essay really is...

and {was thinking we should
talk about it before class tomorrow.

- Need some company?
- No, not tonight. Thank you.

- How much for a little action?
-l need you.

Hop in.

Whoa. Baby, not so fast.

Oh, you're hot, baby.
Let me pull over here.

What are you doing?

Jay, what do you want?
My undivided attention? You can’t have it!

If don’t meet my publication quota
by the time I come up for review...

I lose my tenure.

You're never gonna be able to find me
except me teaching Biology 101...

which is what I’d rather you do.

What is this?

Subject for your next paper.
Possibly your next 10.

- But what is it?
- have no idea.

I found it in Hannah’s room,
buried in the hardwood floor.

It must have come right through
the roof of her rooming house.

- Through the roof?
- I’m serious. It missed the bed by feet.

It was seriously buried
in the hardwood floor.

It must have come
from a long way up.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Well, it’s scorched here.
It’s part of a plane probably.

Does that look like
part of a plane to you?

What is it from then? Outer space?
Why is it scorched? Atmospheric reentry?

- Give me a break.
- Well, actually, I thought of that.

- You did?
- Yeah, l mean—

But wouldn’t the potential kinetic energy
translate into one seriously flat house?

That’s physics. I’m a biologist.

Well, here’s a biology question
for you then. Look at that green stuff.

Looks organic to me.

Smells like a paper to me.

- That’s amazing.
- 1 know.

I’ve never seen anything like it.

We're gonna make
biochemical publishing history here.

What'd you do, spray paint a seashell
and rub green gunk into it?

That’s petroleum jelly in here. Right?
I’m on the wrong end of a bad joke.

You're gonna win a bet of some kind.
Am I right?

I found that thing
where I said that ! found it.

If you don’t believe me, check it out for
yourself. There’s lots of equipment here.

Why don’t you use some of it? Gosh.

I’m gonna go find Hannah.

Lisa! Hi.
Have you seen Hannah?

- No, l haven’t. Have you seen Karl?
- No.

It’s weird. 1 don’t know where he is.
He didn’t come over last night.

He knew my parents weren’t gonna be
there, so you know what he missed out on.

Not personally.
Look, if you see her—

Oh, my God.
What if they're together?

- Why would they be together?
- Well, you know they went out.

No offense, but he said she took it
pretty hard when he broke up with her.

Yeah, well, when it comes to Karl’s
sexual history, he’s a revisionist.

- So if you see her—
- Yeah.

- Okay, same here, okay?
- Okay.

Oh, hi, Hannah.

Jay’s looking for you.
Did you know that?

Yeah. Guys, huh?

I phoned you the other night.
Did you get the message or—

Listen, have you
seen Karl anywhere?

Man! Nobody has.
Not for a couple of days.

I don’t know what else to do.

I know he can be kinda
like a jerk sometimes, but—

I’ve talked to everybody. I’ve gone
to all the places he usually hangs out.

What if something happened?

Oh, thank you.

You're so sweet, ‘cause I—
Like, I know you guys went out.

I needed him.

Yeah.
I know how that must've felt.

Cause that’s how I feel now.

- need you now.
-Me?

- To transform.
- To what?

- What are you doing?
-l need you.

Yeah, well, you can forget about it.

You're sick!

Get out of me.

Hi. I’m Detective Barnett
of the police.

Would any of you know the whereabouts
of Jay Batton? He’s a TA here.

- Hey! Take it easy!
- Who are you?

You're Jay Batton, aren’t you?

I’m Detective Barnett.
We're conducting a criminal investigation.

I’d like to bring you in for questioning.

What’s this about?

A couple of college kids have
gone missing in the past 24 hours...

and we can connect you
to both of them.

What?

You don’t happen to be friends
with David James, do you?

- No. I’ve never even met the guy.
- He’s a heck of a quarterback.

That’s why we jumped
into this investigation so fast.

All-American star quarterbacks
attract a lot of attention...

when they don’t show up
for a big game.

You didn’t see him drive away from campus
the other day with your girlfriend?

Before you say no, Jay,
I have witnesses in the parking lot...

saw you give chase on a bike.

Other witnesses across the street
from Ms. Valesic’s rooming house...

saw you go up there
five minutes after they did.

- True. But when ! got there, he wasn’t—
- Wasn't what?

Look, ! wanna know the answer
to this as much as you do.

I don’t know what’s going on.
You should be looking for Hannah, not me.

We are looking for Hannah,
believe me.

We got an all-points bulletin
out for her, as a matter of fact.

But ! gotta tell you this, Jay—

there’s evidence that a violent murder
took place in her room.

Murder? You don’t think
that she had any—

No, we don’t actually.

He’s 200 pounds, she’s 110, tops.

Do the math.

But we got his shirt and pants torn up
in Hannab’s closet...

and a leather varsity jacket with fresh
fingerprints on the shoulders and neck.

And if those fingerprints are yours, we’re
gonna book you for second-degree murder.

Fleanor? Hi, it’s me.

Did you get that sample that I—
Oh, great.

Did you get a chance to run—
Perfect.

No, I did too. Whole ball of wax,
including spectrascopic analysis.

You too? What do you think?
No, no, what do you think?

David, I got a result, but I don’t wanna
influence your result. What did you—

Yes.

That’s right. A hormone, right?
What gender?

No, me neither.

But almost human, right?
Not quite, but—

Burglary?
I’m gonna have to walk a little—

Now try again. This time
keep your imagination out of it.

Where do you think it’s from?
No, I got a conclusion, Andy.

I just wanna know
what your conclusion is first...

because I don’t wanna be the first one
to say idiotic things out loud.

Well, ’m not
recording this conversation.

I’m not gonna say you’re nuts.
So what—

Extraterrestrial? You're nuts.
But you’re not the only one.

Are you all right?

You okay?

April 11, 1929.

Oh, okay.

Same as 1951.

April 12. April 13.

Two days later.

Excuse me.
I’m done with the 1920s here.

Could you give me stuff
from the beginning of the century?

In fact, could you go back
as far as you can into the 1800s?

- I'll be just a minute.
- Thank you.

That object had
something to do with this.

- How?
-1 don’t know.

It’s messed with her mind.
She’s acting strange.

Okay, let’s talk about that.
How strange?

She doesn’t screw around.

I mean, she wanted to wait
till we got married.

Oh. She was a virgin.

Yeah.

She had a lot of horny boyfriends
on her answering machine.

I know! That’s what I’m talking about.
I’ve never seen her act that way.

Really? That’s gotta bug your ass.
Doesn't it? Huh?

Come on, Jay.
Who you talking about here?

From the last witness I spoke to today,
she swung both ways.

What?

That bullet-shaped thing you found in
her room didn’t run on batteries, did it?

- That’s not funny!
- I’m not laughin’!

I think maybe—

maybe Hannah’s
not the one who’s changed.

Maybe she’s just not the good girl
that you wanted her to be.

Jealousy’s a powerful emotion, Jay.

- It can push you right over.
-1 didn’t kill David James!

He was nailing your girlfriend, wasn’t he?
That’s gotta make you mad.

- Where’s Hannah? ! wanna talk to Hannah.
- You're thinking about Hannah.

You think Hannah’s
thinking about you right now?

Now, we found Dave’s car
parked downtown.

You think she’s got another
boyfriend downtown?

You know what! think?

I think you walked in on her and
the starting quarterback, and you lost it.

Is that what happened?

Where is she?
Is she in another room in this place?

You got her locked up?
Let me see her.

No. No, she isn’t here.

And I’m not lying to you on this, Jay.

We don’t have her in custody,
and I wish to hell we did.

You sure you don’t want legal counsel?
Because you're entitled to—

I know what I’m entitled to.
I also know that you have nothing on me.

But I think we do.
I think we do, Jay.

You were at the place. We've got a motive.
We've got your fingerprints.

And we’ve got your relationship
with the second missing boy.

- What?
- Your friend, Karl.

- What about him?
- He used to go out with Hannah too?

We found his clothes in a heap
on the floor of the library.

Now, I don’t suppose you know
anything about that, do you?

Is there a place where we can go?

- Cheryl.
- What’s up with her?

This is our territory.

Hey, sweetheart.
What are you doing tonight?

This is 81 Bravo.
I think I just found the Valesic girl.

- Request additional units.
- Roger, 81 Bravo. It’s on the way.

Night, Officer.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, baby.

Shoot her!

Shoot her!

Something... inside me.

It’s using me to transform
into something else.

I can’t stop it.

Please help me.

- Where’s Ralph Barnett?
- Straight down the hallway.

Down here?

- What'd you find out?
- This the nutty professor?

-l prefer to be called Stein. You are?
- Detective Barnett.

I don’t know what’s happening, but 1 know
something is going on with Hannah.

She’s been taken down to
the county mental hospital.

- Wait. Where are you taking her?
- A mental hospital? Why?

It’s a security precaution.
Are you coming or not?

It’s not Hannah. At least it’s not
the Hannah that you know.

This object you found in Hannah’s room,
it’s got some parasite in it or bacteria.

It’s something I have never seen before,
and it’s infecting her.

- Jay, the bus is leaving.
- Do me the courtesy of hearing me out.

I’ve checked records. ! think it’s
happened twice before in this century.

In 1920, an object like the one you found
was discovered embedded in masonry...

in a nunnery on Beacon Hill.

So?

Four sailors at that time
disappeared on four consecutive nights.

- Presumably murdered.
- What, by a nun?

By... who knows?
Maybe whatever's affecting Hannah.

So what happened?

Newspaper says that at the same time
a nun was dismissed from the order.

And get this— apparently
for trying to seduce a bishop.

The organic residue on this object...

almost the same chemically
as sex hormones— human sex hormones.

That’s why Hannah’s acting this way.

Maybe whatever it is infests a human host,
and that’s part of its life cycle.

Maybe it’s responsible for disappearances
for centuries. Who knows?

That’s definitely food for thought,
Professor. Thank you very much.

But Jay and I have to talk to
some people from Earth right now.

I’ve seen amoeba
more open-minded than you.

She knocks off people she has sex with.
That doesn’t make her an alien.

That makes her a horny murderer.

- You have to do something.
- What?

Nobody believes me.
I keep saying...

the girl you had
the all-points out on...

she said there was something inside her
trying to transform her.

- She told you this herself?
- And I believe her.

- Calm down—
- I’m never gonna calm down.

She turned this guy into a pile of mush.
I saw it with my own eyes.

And this light blasted out
from where ! shot her.

- You shot her?
- Jay, l was just—

- You shot her?
- Jay! Wait a minute!

Hurry up and get her under.
Her BP’s still falling.

Oh, my God.

- Code yellow! Code yellow!
- Get out! Get out!

- What happened?
- Jay! Get away from there!

- Please don’t do that.
- Don’t you want me?

I just don’t want you to kill me.

Stay put. I got a negotiator.

- You can’t hurt her. That’s not her—
- Wait. This is fascinating.

I mean, look at this doctor.
He’s not getting hurt.

He’s okay. Why?

I think that it needs a willing partner.

- Oh, come on.
- 1 think— No, listen.

Let’s assume for a second
that whatever it is...

it absorbs hormones that are released
when there’s sexual excitement.

Bear with me for one second.
Bear with me.

Now if that’s true, then this guy—

If it’s gonna work, he’s gotta get turned
on, and he’s not getting turned on.

He’s scared of her. He knows she’s dangerous.
That’s why he’s resisting.

I mean...

I think the thought of his imminent death
isn’t exactly an aphrodisiac.

- Touch me.
-No.

I need you.

I need you!

- You still say that’s your girlfriend?
- Listen to me.

As long as it’s trapped in there,
it can’t get what it needs.

Do you understand?
I think I’m beginning to understand this.

In the past, this thing landed near
or in the homes of these young women.

Then young men in the area
started to disappear.

Young women, including Hannah, start to
behave... uncharacteristically lascivious.

I think it feeds on making love.

When the victims are aroused,
then it absorbs the energy that it needs.

It also...

absorbs the victims.

- What’s happening?
- She’s out.

- Maybe if it can’t feed, it dies.
- What?

- I’m going in there.
- No! Wait a minute!

Somebody's gotta go in and get
the doctor. You wanna do it? Huh?

She won't let it hurt me.

Doc. Doc. Wake up. Come on.
Come on. Let’s go. Stand up.

Stand up.

Jay! What in the hell are you doing?

Jay, open this door!

It’s still inside me.
I can’t stop it.

- How do we get rid of it?
-1 don’t know.

It needs to feed once more.

I can sense how close it is,
but I don’t want to hurt anybody else.

It’s not your fault.
It’s not your fault.

- No.
- It’s okay.

I can’t stop it. It'll kill you.

Not if we give it what it wants.

But it'll kill you.

You won't let that happen.

- He’s sacrificing himself.
- 1 don’t think so.

I don’t think so. They're in love.
Maybe that’s what’s gonna save them.

- How?
-1 don’t know.

My research of all these past
disappearances that I uncovered...

didn’t involve any boyfriends...

didn’t involve any husbands, no lovers.

Strangers. Just strangers.

You understand what I’m saying?

I mean, they're in love.

Making love releases an energy that’s
impossible to measure scientifically.

Love.

It may be what this entity
was looking for all along.

The urge to hunt and kill...

the need to mate and multiply...

these are our most primitive
Auman drives.

But they pale in comparison to
the most powerful human drive of alf-

the need for love.
