Original subtitles

Carter: But, sweetie, it's an advanced class.

It's great, you studied hard, and it paid off.

Thanks, dad, but I mean,

normal physics in this school is hard enough.

Maybe I don't want to be accelerated.

I just don't want to put myself under too much pressure.

Well, pressure can be good for you.

I mean, my mother used to say that pressure can make diamonds.

I mean, don't you want to be a diamond?

Well, can't I just be, like, a sapphire

who still has time to hang out with her friends?

If you don't have time to take advantage of opportunities like this,

then maybe we should revisit the job thing. Dad, don't even...

Okay, you know what? That's fine. I'll make it work.

Yay, physics!

That's the spirit.

Sparky! Mind your manners.

Sorry, he's not a morning dog.

You are my new biometric, walking thing.

How do you do? Yes, nice to meet you.

Woman: Who is the best girl?

Hey, Jo, what's with all the dogs in here?

They're biomimetic.

I don't care what breed they are, it's unsanitary.

It means artificial, Carter. They're robots.

Oh, that biomimetic.

So, what, the dod. Has some program

to create heavily armed robot dog soldiers?

No, but that would be so cool.

No, this isn't a 6d. Thing. People build them for fun,

and they get really competitive about it, too.

I just don't want anything too big.

Last time, it was you and me at city hall.

It wasn't exactly very memorable.

Yeah, but the wedding night...

Don't mind us.

That was my plan.

How about this, I take care of everything, and you just show up?

Yeah, with my hair done, my makeup... oh, my god, I need a dress.

I'll go shopping with you.

It's a wedding gown, not a flak jacket.

I happen to like weddings. You got a problem with that?

Okay, I'm not even insulted that you didn't ask me to cater your reception.

Vincent, would you like to...

Twist my arm. Ow! Uncle!

A possible break—in on feynman road.

If you want, I can... I can take it.

Nope. Hey, I'd love to sit and talk weddings all day,

but duty calls.

Guys, let's talk menu and theme.

I'm picturing elizabethan ball.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, doggie, whoa!

Sorry! Whoa!

Don't worry, Carter. Robotic dogs don't ruin your pants.

Well, that's a scientific advance.

Oh! That's our reigning champion, Fifi.

Hello!

Two years in a row, best in show.

We're going for the triple crown this week. Aren't we, baby?

Lucky for you.

Well, looks like the bitch is back.

Dr. Young.

Careful, thunder, I wouldn't want you to catch a programming worm.

Is that mange on thunder?

Hey, control your tinkertoy.

You stay away from her.

Fifi?

Fifi?

Oh, my god.

Oh! Fifi?

Oh, my... Fifi!

Did Fifi make a mess on the grass?

What did you do to her?

Nothing.

Sheriff! This woman killed my dog!

Oh!

Dr. Deacon, good to see you back where you belong.

And it is good to be home.

I've been trying to find a way to say thank you.

Good, because I have a task for you.

Good.

Jo: This is Dr. Mendel's. He thinks he knows who did it.

Mendel: Those people are ruining this town.

Carter: And who would "those people" be, Dr. Mendel?

Those dog lunatics.

They're the ones that broke into my lab, and they'll do anything to win.

Was there something here they can use? What do you make?

Synthetic mucus.

Why? How about to cure

every airborne pathogen known to man?

My brew stops them dead,

but those fanatics just want to build a more realistic dog nose.

All right, well, what makes you think somebody's been in here?

Beakers don't jump off tables by themselves, sheriff.

This could've been a disaster. I grow my mucus in super colonies.

If those criminals had spilled even a small amount of the wrong compounds...

It would have been bad.

Okay.

Well, I'll take a look at your evidence.

Jo, you wanna walk Dr. Mendel inside, see if anything's missing?

Yeah.

Don't touch anything.

Oh, that's bad.

Whoa!

Jo: Carter. Carter?

What happened?

Mucus happened.

Is this stuff toxic?

Mendel: If there was any justice in the world, it would be.

You're wearing my whole batch of misty green!

What did I say about touching things?

I didn't touch anything! They... they fell in the quake.

You must've felt it. It, it shook the whole lab.

No, we didn't feel anything.

None of our instruments recorded any seismic activity.

That's why cd. Was built here.

There are no strike-slip faults, no volcanic activity.

This here is stable. You, I'm not so sure.

What?

I mean, though they do let me carry a gun,

and I know what an earthquake is.

What else knocked over those jars?

Well, it was probably you. I mean, the lab is full of fumes.

Maybe you just got dizzy, and could you please get cleaned up?

You're dripping mucus on my floor.

Runny nose?

No, I'm fine. I'm not lightheaded.

That's good to hear. How's the Fifi situation?

The late biomimetic dog?

Oh! Um... Fifi, yeah, that was sad.

I mean, kind of fun... No, but sad.

So what's the status on the investigation?

There isn't one.

I... it's not my job to investigate malfunctioning toys.

Carter, they are hardly toys.

The Eureka dog show has led to some incredible breakthroughs,

artificial skin for burn survivors,

compact neural computers,

nasal spray that allows soldiers to sniff out explosives

based on canine nose chemistry.

The dogs themselves are a great marketing potential.

I mean, just imagine a dog that never eats,

never urinates and never dies.

Fifi died.

Well, the owner thinks that it was sabotage, and I need you to find out.

I've got some corporate r and d people coming to the show...

And they don't want to invest in dogs that fall apart. Excuse me.

Could anything be a bigger waste of my time?

I need Carter. The answer's yes.

Did you get the data on the seismic motion scan?

Unclear.

Those are the details I need to go over with him.

Okay.

All right, what do you want to know?

There was a weird light and everything started to shake.

Shut up, Carter. There was no earthquake.

Jo was 50 feet from you. She would've felt it, too.

I need a favor.

And that's how you ask? Who raised you?

Oh, man, what a... wow!

Yep, the brains of global dynamics, the computer core.

Logic diamond processors connected with tantalum beams.

If you networked every computer made in the last 30 years,

it wouldn't come close to the power in this room.

Dr. Stark, it's so great to see you.

Usually no one comes down here unless there's a problem.

Here, let me show you my radial upgrades.

Actually, I'm just here for the clearances.

Oh, yeah, that.

Douglas Fargo was supposed to bring the papennork.

I assume he... yeah. I'll go find him.

I didn't know that they use diamonds in computers.

Yeah, the aligned carbon 14 allows hyper-dense qubit storage

in an optical quantum processor.

Diamonds can store tons of data and transmit it super fast.

'Cause I had no idea. Yeah, no one does

because they keep them all locked down here.

Fargo, all ready for the dog show?

Don't even start with me, Tracy.

So who are you helping this year, Jackson's poodle?

It could use a bigger brain.

No, I'm actually sitting this one out. A little too competitive.

I see. Interesting.

What am I doing here, anyway?

Well, Dr. Fox is kindly giving me one of her logic diamonds.

They're strictly regulated, but being science director does have its privileges.

I just need a law enforcement signature to take it out of the building.

All right. Big experiment, I'm assuming.

Something hopefully disfiguring.

Actually, it's just a wedding gift for Allie.

A singular diamond for a singular woman.

It's very beautiful, Dr. Stark. Thumbprint right here.

Thank you, Dr. Fox. Thanks, Carter!

Sure.

Yeah, I heard about Fifi, tragic.

Guess the field's wide open this year.

Actually, I'm investigating the earthquake.

Yeah, there... there are no earthquakes in Eureka.

And so I'm told.

Well, if you want a second opinion, you can always ask Dr. Hood.

He's retired, but he used to be the top dog in seismology,

volcanology, geology, pretty much anything dirty and he was in it.

All right, thanks. Nice to meet you.

Hood: Dougie Fargo? That wild man.

Did he tell you about the time we were running those columbian drugs?

Uh, no.

Yeah.

Columbia med school wanted to make mineral-based vaccines.

So Doug and I trekked all over Alaska

gathering eriochalcite for those yahoos.

Yeah, crazy times.

So what can I do you for?

Well, I was at a farm near the lake,

and there was an earthquake, but nobody felt it but me. Is that possible?

Depends, how drunk were you?

I'm sorry, man. It's really not very likely.

Yeah, because there aren't any earthquakes in Eureka.

This place is rock solid.

I'm having trouble finding someone who believes me.

I can relate.

I spent the last year of my career being the guy no one believes.

Anyway, where are we talking?

Round here. All right.

Nope. Sorry. Nothing going on down there.

Dead as Toledo on a Saturday night.

The next time I feel the ground shake

and see the northern lights inside, I'll just leave the bar.

Never mind.

I got to get back to the case of the dead fake dog anyway.

Never mind.

Northern lights, huh?

Fifi's owner still won't release the remains.

She's afraid we're going to steal her doggie-building secrets.

Well, that case gets better and better.

She still thinks Dr. Young sabotaged her entry.

So you think you wanna talk to Dr. Young?

No. You wanna ask around?

See if anybody else's dogs malfunctioned?

No, because this is stupid. There isn't a crime.

Those people waste thousands of dollars... millions.

Millions of dollars making something

they're giving away for free in every pound in america.

People need hobbies, Carter.

I used to collect handcuffs.

And meanwhile, there was an earthquake

which no one felt but me, which is impossible.

Because there are no earthquakes in Eureka.

Man: Go! Go! Where's this...

Woman: What is it?

Dr. Hood?

Sheriff! You were right!

There's something brewing down there and she's fixing to blow!

Yeah.

It's just a hole. Just a hole. Stay to the left.

Carter!

Now, I already spoke to him. He understands. He is really sorry.

Sorry? He could've killed somebody. Dr. Hood!

Haven't we talked about your using the tunneler?

Well, talk to him. He's the one that told me about the triboluminescence.

The, the... the colored lights, rocks under seismic stress

can sometimes release visible electromagnetic energy.

So I dove down. You ready?

All my readings indicate there's a pressurized

komatiite melt under this town. Somewhere.

Wait. Halt, halt. Stop! There's something melting under the town?

Like what, like a volcano?

Not like a volcano, and it could erupt at any time,

and it's not linked to any known fault system.

That's why your quake was so localized.

A pocket of magma developed spontaneously? That's impossible.

Did impossible cover my friend with mucus?

He's got a point.

Okay. I'll have the geo lab look into it.

You stay above ground.

So what, should we start talking evacuation?

Maybe hospitalization.

Carter, there is no magma chamber. Dr. Hood is unstable.

Not so much. Seems like a smart guy.

Look, five years ago, hood predicted a 9.6 on the reelfoot fault.

We evacuated Memphis.

Well, was there an earthquake in Memphis?

No. Hood cracked under the pressure.

He left right after that, because he kept seeing things that just weren't there.

Carter, please, I need you to keep your eye on him.

Don't let him do any more damage.

Man 1: That's about right, now. Hood: Okay.

I'll see you later. Do you want this back?

Yeah, thanks, appreciate it. Bye.

Henry: Acoustic physics is a challenging class, Zoe.

So, don't beat yourself up about it. It's very complicated stuff.

Let's go back to the beginning. There's two main sections.

Carter: What are you guys doing?

Rayl wave dynamics.

Um... careful, Jack. It's an acoustic pressure wave.

She's trying to figure out the frequency to melt copper ore.

Wow! So you can really melt metal with sound.

Yeah, I don't even understand it well enough

to explain why I don't understand it. Do you want coffee?

No, thanks. I got something I really don't want to do.

I can relate. Yeah. As can I.

What are you avoiding? Just some troubling errand I can no longer ignore.

See you later. Yeah.

Zoe, could you clear table number five, please?

Why not? I'm gonna fail this class anyway.

But that's how diamonds are made, right?

Well, not unless you crack under the pressure.

Whoa! Whoa!

Hey! You are going to have to clean that!

Hey! What are you doing, Dr. Hood?

I'm dropping a shear wave probe!

You want a turn? It's a blast!

No! I'm good! Can you shut it off, please?

Dr. Hood, you can't drill in here.

I need to measure p-waves if I'm gonna find this magma pocket.

This is the best spot to crack through the igneous uplift.

Are you sure there's really anything to find?

Sure, I'm sure.

I can hear the roaring, I just haven't seen the tiger.

Oh! You've talked to Allison.

Mmm. Uh—uh.

There's something happening here, sheriff. This isn't like Memphis.

Maybe, but I still want you to pack it up and go home. Okay?

Just let global handle this. And I need yourtunneling car thingy off the road.

Do you mind if I tow her home? All above ground, I promise.

I just want to wash her up before she gets rusty.

Sure. Sure.

Okay. Thanks. That's too bad.

It was fun getting dirty again.

This, this map has got to be, what, 70 years old?

Mmm.

Ha! And what is it you, you're gonna build here?

A hotel.

Our corporate visitors are used to a certain level of service.

This spot is perfect.

But I found records that showed some traces of radiation.

Uh—huh.

Well, you know, radiation is like penny candy.

It comes in all different kinds of flavors.

You think you can scan something for me, correct?

Oh, absolutely. Yeah. You know, but

a wide-spectrum survey is a very complicated process.

You're my man. Absolutely.

She's a liar! She actually accused me of sabotage?

Well, your name came up.

I wouldn't touch her crappy stuffed animal with a ten—foot pole.

Bet you're happy Fifi's out of contention?

Are you joking?

This was my year to finally crush her in front of everyone.

My dog is perfect.

Yeah, he's a champ.

You should see him run. It's like seabiscuit.

Here, toss him one.

All right. Hey, buddy. You wanna run? You wanna run?

I'm telling you right now, he's a winner.

Woman: What happened?

What can you say? He's such a great competitor.

Yeah, and the second one to blow.

I sent Fifi to g.D.

Take what's left of thunder and see what you can find.

Wait. Wait. I get to look inside?

Yeah. I want a complete dogtopsy.

Thank you. Oh, no, just...

And down, Fargo. Right. I'm sorry.

Jo: Hello.

Is everything okay in there?

I can't believe you convinced me to try this on.

No one wears a big white dress their second time around.

But tell me you don't love it.

It's fabulous for an Amazon.

Honey, you can't tell anything without a fitting.

I don't have time for a fitting.

I have a job, and it's not planning a wedding.

It'll just take a second,

and presto.

Aren't you the beautiful bride?

Can I try it on next?

Was that an earthquake?

No, a tunnel-drilling lunatic. Just get me out of this.

It's... it's not working.

Triboluminescence must've shorted the circuit. Forget it.

You called?

You have something to tell me?

I do.

Hood has been tunneling again.

I told you to keep an eye on him.

I am. He promised me he wouldn't do it anymore.

Promised? Promised?

Okay, let me be perfectly clear here. I need him to stop.

All right. Dr. Hood? Hey, we got to pack it up.

Allison, a little fancy for the afternoon, but you pull it off.

Do you know why I'm in this dress? Laundry day?

Because you knocked out half the circuits on main street.

There was a temblor?

I knew one was coming. When exactly?

Ten minutes ago.

And you knew because you've been tunneling again?

No. I was here 10 minutes ago.

That quake was the real deal. Pressure's building.

There is no magma pocket under Eureka.

Please take the nice doctor home.

Hey, Vera wang, you want proof?

I'm out here tracking a vent. It's ready to pop.

Come on. Give me 30 seconds.

You look pretty.

Thank you. It's a little princessy, but I like the neckline.

Okay, your time's up. Come on, a little grace period?

I'm trying to nail a fumarole eruption down to the second here.

Oh, no. What's a fumarole?

Allison: A mud volcano.

You see that? I'm back in the game, baby.

All right, you, you go that way and then move...

I like the neckline, but not so crazy about the color.

We're sinking zero-balance p—wave detectors all along the Ridge.

I re—tasked the geo satellites to look for ground deformations.

Sounds good. What's all that gonna tell us?

Nothing. We just like sounding smart.

The fumarole proves that there's pressurized magma down there.

Now, we have to find out exactly where it is

and how big of a problem we have.

Maybe hood's our problem. Man: All right.

Sure made quite a prediction, and it seems like he likes being top dog again.

Really? You think he could cause this?

Well, that's what the instruments are gonna tell us.

Hopefully before they reach critical mass.

Carter. Yeah, look, Fargo, I...

Fine.

Got to go. Thorne's doggy dissection.

Let me know if your probing produces anything.

Fargo, I have a lava problem right now,

and I don't have time to worry about fake dogs.

Ooh, well, do you have time to worry about national security?

Logic diamonds, it's how these dogs always won.

They were juicing, but the neural nets couldn't handle the load.

I thought all these diamonds were supposed to be locked in a vault.

Exactly, so not only are they cheaters, they broke federal law.

Have fun in gitmo, ladies.

Relax. I'll talk to them. I already tried that.

They said they have no idea how the diamonds got into the dogs. Likely story.

Okay, first, leave the interrogations to me,

and second, if they both have diamonds, we need to go to the source.

It looks like a logic diamond.

Yes! J'accuse, Fifi!

Well, I thought all the diamonds were under your supervision.

These aren't from our lab. The manufacturing facility in pensacola

puts a code on every diamond they make.

The inventory is continually checked.

So, someone else can make these?

There's several countries with covert programs, China, North Korea.

I'll check with intelligence, see if they know of any missing stones.

All right, let me know as soon as you get an answer.

Do it. Can't find the zipper?

Oh. Yeah, I got md and two phd's,

and I can't get myself out of this stupid dress.

Thorne wants to see me five minutes ago.

Can you... yeah.

Can you help? Thank you. Yeah. Yeah.

I used to be pretty good at this.

The micro—lock is damaged.

Yeah, it's like super—velcro. I know.

So, I should have believed you

when you told me about the earthquake.

No, you didn't feel it. I know it sounds crazy.

No. Lean back.

Coming from you, I should have listened, and

I don't know. It's just the pressure.

I feel like I've got a million things pushing in on me.

Yeah, more.

It's like I can't breathe, like...

Like you're trapped in a wedding dress? Little... little more.

Okay, it's just...

Yeah. There. Got it.

You got it? Yeah.

Oh, thank... thank you.

So is this why you called?

No, I...

We haven't been able to pinpoint the magma pocket yet,

but the resonance indicates that it could be manmade.

You're thinking by a disgraced geologist looking to fix his reputation?

Well, pressure makes you do crazy things.

There is this remarkable jumble of radiation.

I mean, here, where you want to put your hotel, there's everything

from x—rays all the way up through gamma.

I mean, I'd love to know why it's there, but it's very powerful,

and the source is right here.

Interesting.

And I'll give you all the specific frequencies once I've run the samples.

That's not necessary.

You've given me all the information I need.

It seems that my hotel project's gonna have to go back to square one.

Wait.

That's it? No, that's it.

All this clean-up is gonna cost billions,

and my intention is to make money, not waste it,

so I'm just gonna have to find an alternate site.

And Henry, you know, property development can get very contentious.

So could we keep this between us, for now?

Mmm. Yeah, don't worry.

I'm good at keeping secrets.

How's it going? Hood: We could get some nasty lava bombs.

It'd be easier to predict if I could find the pocket.

Yeah, unless you already know where it is.

Allison thinks it's manmade.

By some old volcano man who wants one last ride on the Ferris wheel?

I'm just doing my job.

Some things you don't mess with.

Well, somebody did.

Take a pretty fancy machine to liquefy bedrock.

Well, this town loves its fancy machines.

Yeah, no joke. These guys build dogs,

they could probably figure out how to light a volcano.

Well, they both explode.

Some of the owners have been cheating with logic diamonds.

I got dogs exploding all over town and it...

That's a dog show I could get into. Yeah.

Hey, have you tried finding out where the diamonds were mined?

Yeah. Yeah, no luck so far.

Well, I could shoot yours through the old gas-liquid chromatograph.

Only take a second, might tell you where they're from.

All right. All right.

Every mine in the world produces diamonds

with a unique molecular structure.

Like a fingerprint? Yeah, or a really expensive snowflake.

So it looks like our little friend here is all the way from...

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Something's messed up here. It says that the carbon signature is from Eureka.

Is there a diamond mine here?

But they used to mine coal.

Jo: We've been down here an hour. If we're looking for diamonds,

shouldn't we be in a spooky, old diamond mine?

Carter: You mean, instead of a spooky, old coal mine?

Hood: Yeah, but the system told us it came from this anthracite vein.

It's weird, I know.

Wow.

Sheriff, look at this.

That's not coal.

Raw diamonds,

but they're not natural.

Someone's transforming the anthracite

into isometric—hexoctahedral carbon 14.

Someone's cooking logic diamonds.

Look out!

Doc? Doc.

I'm okay. I'm okay. It's just my arm.

Well, what was that, a security system?

No, I'm an idiot. It's an acoustic wave generator.

They're using intermittent bursts. We just happened to get caught.

Somebody's growing these diamonds with rayl pressure waves,

and they're doing it on a massive scale.

Hold on. Rayl waves?

Well, Zoe was studying with one of those things today at cafe diem,

and it could melt metal. Could it melt rock?

I'm with you, sheriff.

I'm not.

The diamond oven is shooting waves into the ground.

And rayl pressure waves can melt iron ore in the rock strata.

Melted rocks make magma, and where the magma's under pressure...

There's a volcano.

Yeah,

but who's cooking diamonds?

I talked to Dr. Zedler at the pensacola facility.

There are only six people in the world who know how to make logic diamonds,

and they're all on his team.

All right, so they're all 3,000 miles away from here?

Yes. Confirmed by d.O.D. Security.

You think your people turn up something from one of the other programs?

What other programs?

You know. I don't know. North Korea, China.

Carter, no one else has a logic diamond program,

not even in the theoretical stages.

We are 30 years ahead of the world on this.

I got to see your personnel files.

You spent three years in pensacola

while the neural core was being designed.

Dr. Zedler said you asked a lot of questions about how to grow logic diamonds,

said you became a real expert.

You spend your entire career creating something amazing,

and when you finally succeed, they just lock it all away.

Are there any more diamond farms?

I only grew them because I didn't want to steal them.

Don't you see? These diamonds could change the world,

but the dod. Just want to use them to make better weapons.

G.d. Is a science facility, not a weapons factory.

It's a top-secret lab.

I could never test my diamonds. That's why I put them in the dogs.

Wait, wait, to test them?

Those dogs have the most advanced neural processors around.

Mimicking a biological organism is the best way

to test the diamonds under real-world conditions.

I was helping out a few of the entrants.

I just built the diamonds into the circuits.

I had no idea they would overload.

Or that you'd caused a volcano?

Pardon?

Allison: Even though we shut down the generator in the mine,

the seismic activity is continuing to increase.

That magma's under incredible pressure.

If it blows, Eureka could be scattered over four states.

There could be thousands of casualties.

We should begin evacuation.

No, it could explode at any time.

I don't want people out on the street.

It'll be much safer if they're inside.

Could you drill in and relieve the pressure?

You know, just Lance the puppy?

Well, we have no idea where this puppy is.

Thermal energy travels along the rock strata until it finds a pocket.

It could be anywhere. Allison: Wait a minute.

What if we cut a tunnel? Get close to the pocket, bore straight to the lake,

then use remote explosives to fracture the containment rock.

That would divert the magma?

And we still have to find it.

Well, you guys have got to have a gizmo in this building that can help.

Right? Start knocking on doors.

Just put a note in the elevator...

Yeah, Carter, there's no gizmo for sniffing out magma

2,000 feet below the earth's surface,

but maybe we can get the director on that.

Well, I'm not talking about sniffing...

Igotanidea. Just tell me if it's incredibly stupid.

Yes.

Is it possible?

This technology can help soldiers sniff out explosives.

We can fix Fifi to help us.

Similar technology, but real dogs can't sniff out magma.

If we reprogrammed her and jacked up the sensitivity...

That would take weeks.

Well...

With this.

It's Dr. Mendel's artificial mucus.

It could supercharge Fifi's nose.

I think

Fifi

was born to be a hero,

heroine. Don't you?

Smell the lava. Good girl.

Smell the lava. Oh, good girl!

Smell the lava. Right there. Good girl. Good girl. Smell the lava. Good girl.

I hate to interrupt puppy school,

but the seismic pressure is building.

I think Fifi's almost ready, although I don't think she's that thrilled

about carrying live explosives into a volcano.

I know, but you're gonna need them to release the magma.

All right. Can't we just poke a hole in it, relieve the pressure?

Sure, if you wanna be a charcoal briquette.

The magma's 3,000 degrees.

It's gonna break through and fire down the tunnel

to the lake at 80 feet per second.

You want to be long gone when that happens.

All right. All right.

Breaking through, bad, running away, good.

Got it. All right, Fifi, let's go!

In you go!

All right, Fifi, you ready for this?

Yeah, she's got a new nose. It's topped off with mucus,

ready to find some lava.

It's not lava.

Which way, girl?

Here goes nothing.

Worker 1: I don't like that burns that are smoldering!

Worker 2: More, too! Worker 3: Let's close it off!

Worker 1: I'll try!

Carter.

Nathan, what's the status down there?

I think Carter's dog has us chasing our tails.

Fifi, don't make me stop this tunneler, Fifi!

We have methane vents popping all over town.

Nice big ones!

Still nothing.

Wait. Wait, we might have something!

All right, Fifi.

Come on. Come on! Let's go find some lava.

Magma. It's magma.

It's lava when it's above ground, magma when it's below.

What, so you think I'm confusing the dog?

Well, you're exhausting me.

We got heat.

Let's just set these explosives right by the melt...

We're not gonna need them. Come here, Fifi. Come here!

Magma's breaking through. Run!

Fifi!

Didn't you say we should be long gone when this happens?

Yes, I did! Drive, Carter! Drive!

The pressure's dropping. Did you find something?

Carter: Oh, you could say that!

Hey, where's the lake?

I can't get a bearing. The instruments are all over the place.

Smack it. Seriously?

Smack it.

All right! I got a bearing.

Turn right, 15 degrees.

Should be straight ahead.

Should be?

Next time, Fargo's driving.

They made it through.

So, what do you want to do tomorrow?

Vincent, iced coffee, please? On the way.

Steamy out there tonight.

Well, get used to it. That magma's gonna be venting for days.

I think, technically, it's lava.

So, you guys did good work today.

You should team up more often.

Both: Yeah.

I'm thinking this town should buy you boys a drink.

Well, you know, it was kind of fun.

I mean, besides almost dying, I can see why you miss it.

Honestly, I don't. I like the quiet life.

Living with that kind of pressure isn't for me anymore.

Hey, Carter, good driving today.

Thanks.

Thanks.

I'm the king of the world!

Hey! Congratulations! Robot dog show champ.

Thank you, thank you. Nathan: Fargo!

I'd like to thank everyone who made this possible, mostly myself.

Yeah, well, nothing like a gracious winner.

I got to tell you, it's absolutely amazing. Come here, buddy.

Yeah. I mean, it's so real.

Mmm...

I thought fake dogs don't...

Well, yeah, just... I'll see you later.

That's nice.

Hey.

Interested in a game?

No, I should go home and change my pants because Fargo is a cheater.

Sparky?

Oh! Well, you know, pressure can be a very destructive force.

Oh!

Did you ever finish that troubling errand?

I certainly did.

How was Thorne?

You're very perceptive, Jack.

I do know the type, and they don't do good deeds.

She had me run a radiation survey outside of town.

Now, have you ever heard of baryogenic radiation?

Well, that's because it doesn't exist. It's only a theory.

At least I thought so until today.

You found some? Just a trace.

Well, great, great. Is it dangerous?

I have all the data in my garage.

I'll run you through it tomorrow.

Great. Thanks. All right.

Hey, Henry! Thanks for being on my side with this.

Hey, I do not keep secrets from my friends.

Anymore.

Hmm.

Sarah: Sheriff Carter, you planned to do aerobic exercise tonight

from 8:00 to 9:30, followed by bill paying.

Yeah, I'm taking the night off.

Sarah: Good idea. Stress is america's number one health problem.

Oh, drop that.

Followed closely by sarcasm.

Hey, you want some chips? I was just gonna sit down and watch the game?

No, I had a powerbar at the library. I'll see you.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Where you going?

To study. There's a physics quiz tomorrow and

I really, really, really want to get an a.

Okay.

Just do your best, all right?

Thanks.

You need some help?

Sure. How much you know about calculating electron mass?

Nothing.

But I do know that everything's a little easier

if you're having some pizza. So sit down.

Crack the books, and I'll order.

Okay.

I'm proud of you.

Extra mushrooms, right?

You know me so well.

Awesome.
