previously on Strange World we need a

special investigator to work with law

enforcement on cases involving criminal

abuses of science I take a drug to keep

myself alive I've been taking it for 3

months there is no drug there was a

woman who came to me in the hospital she

injected something into my IV since then

every time I've gotten sick it's been

there Turner can die not yet my

instructions were to erase everything

your instructions have been changed our

concern now is with Turner someone is

keeping him alive we need to find out

who why did you put me on this

path what did you expect me to do to

learn Dr

Turner I expected you to

learn since I was a child I've heard it

said that ours was a borrowed gift

that the day would come for the gift to

be

returned my people always understood

this she locked you out of your own

house did she had to spend the night in

my truck good truck what was it this

time she had a birthday Saturday and you

forgot oh I

remembered she turned 40

is that giving you trouble snagged on

something there hold her

steady lots of drift out today yeah God

really caught good on

something hey Mac what's

that it's not

drift oh jeez

my people have always understood that

ours was a borrowed gift that the day

would come for the gift to be returned

but it's taken me this long a lifetime

to understand

aah

an entire town 200 men women and

children all

dead because the people of spirit Falls

were willing to die does not mean they

wished it something drove them to it

if it wasn't ritual suicide what was

it there was a witness to these events

Dr Turner a witness who is now being

hunted by the people you work

with can you give me a

name there limits to my knowledge not

for me to probe any further we'll risk

exposure so I get to do all the heavy

lifting

find the witness Dr Turner so these

deaths will not have been

anyway this guy

only folks with official clearance

Beyond this

point I'm with you

Sam you samur the United States Army

Medical Research Institute for infection

uh you see the movie outbreak the place

Dustin Hoffman

work all right go ahead

3

all 2 35

it's not just the bodies you're smelling

it's not gasoline no cars electricity or

running water these folks were stuck in

time what you're smelling is fish oil

candlefish they call it it burns hotter

and longer than

kerosene they used it in their

lamps it's not a smell you'd sin forget

you've smelled it before 30 years ago

the fire started one of the barns we

caught it before it could

sprad only time they ever invited us

in Chief Dave Robinson seport fire

department that'd be the town you passed

through to get here Paul turn you Sam

infectious

diseases well I guess you're hear an

account of what they found in the

graveyard they dug up the graves and

burned the

bodies right before they joined them

I know dates on these

headstones what's your business

here agent pennick with the FBI he's in

charge Paul Turner you

Samurai who sent you up here Dr Turner

I'm here to offer our services in your

investigation but we know what happened

these people got in their boats DED

themselves with oil and then they set

fire to themselves they're dead now

we're just mopping up you're not looking

for the Y

they were probably trying to make their

Comet connection I think there may be

more to it than that this aimation of

the graves and burning of the bodies

might suggest a scorched Earth policy

that's one way put it meaning that what

happened here may have been a defensive

act this looks like some sort of medical

apparatus considering this community

didn't believe in modern medicine that

suggests to me an outside

presence no one was after these people

Dr Turner this isn't Masada he's got a

point Dr

Turner these

people they didn't have anything the

outside world would want look around the

gift shop take anything you like agent

Stern will see to it you find your way

out my best guess in life it was a blood

collection kit pretty sure this was a

blood pile it's about the right Mass uh

the glass is soda lime and I found

traces of type O refused into the Matrix

question is how it got there maybe by

the same guy who left the

fingerprint fingerprint

mhm I already checked to see if it was

yours it wasn't but it did match someone

else in our database a geneticist named

Earl Raider worked for the NIH in

1992 Earl was there under an NIH Grant

it's an island in the Philippines called

SIU 30% of the population is born with

CLE pallet what was Dr Raider doing

there Earl was there trying to locate

the gene site responsible for the defect

which require taking blood samples from

the Islanders and a great deal of

patience considering there are over

880,000 jeans to choose

from Earl is

persistent where could I reach him I

haven't seen or spoken to him since we

came

back from

SIU I'm the one behind the camera that

was our honeymoon the trip lasted longer

than the

marriage turns out I wasn't what Earl

needed Dr walon I'm sure you've read

about Spirit Falls the place those

people kill themselves I think your

husband might have been out there

looking for

something you have any idea what that

might have

been

no but whatever it

was I hope he found it

little is known at this hour Dan

authorities won't confirm it but many

here believe the unidentified woman may

be a survivor of the tragic mass suicide

earlier this week in spirit

Falls no Dan the woman's condition is

unknown at this time but we'll be here

with any new information on this amazing

Story the moment it becomes available

I'm Norma Wick reporting live

from be

patient what about the saf of the

community anybody

El got some evidence

does she know how the

other what is her

phical what's he doing here says he has

information there was an outsider in

spirit Falls someone who was after their

blood blood boys we got to put on APV on

cter here this man is Dr Earl Raider

he's a bio prospector a jean

cracker his work consisted of mapping

genetic sequences in Clos communities

but to do that he needed blood so what

if they wouldn't give it to him what if

he decided to take

it so you think this one man drove an

entire Community to Suicide well read

the newspapers the people of spirit

Falls shunn medical science out of

religious Devotion to them Raider would

have been doing the work of the devil so

where is this guy I don't know but he

was there well then he's probably still

there look these people didn't keep

birth or death certificates we couldn't

identify any of the bodies for all we

know your vampire Jean trackers in the

seaport morg with the rest of spirits

Falls okay let's make this quick round

to the right all right can I talk to him

I can't do it not

now can I at least show her the

picture please back those people up at

least let me show her the picture not

now get back where are you

going where did they takeing to aate

facility that's all I can tell you she

needs to be under 24-hour protection

suicide watch standard in these

situations what I'm talking about she's

no danger to herself Dr Turner she was

doubt and acceler she was out there but

she survived because she wanted to live

there was an intruder in spirit Falls he

wanted something she may know what she's

not safe

nut he was right to we get 100 calls

media attention Lloyd was a good Agent

print there was an 85% match to the 911

Raider I'm ready to pursue that

possibility were the calls traced yeah

first one came from a truck stop in

seport 5 miles from Spirit at Falls

second from a pay phone in downtown

Philly Society

Hill I was just in Society Hill talking

to Raider's ex-wife

be too late don't you understand they're

coming you can't prove it with me who

made that

call I don't have to prove it we know

you in spirit

false you were studying these

people what were you looking

for what were you trying to

find all

right let's start with a

woman she wouldn't give us her name why

don't you

what's her name

doctor Miriam Mary Miriam

Miriam okay you called us said she was

in danger someone was after her who was

after

Miriam I warned

you I warned you but you wouldn't

wristle I am listening

now it's too late what were you doing in

spirit

Falls I want a lawyer

now he's in love with

her you can see it here in her face

she loves him too then why won't he just

say so why won't he

cooperate whatever he's hiding she's the

way to go at him to get to the truth let

me talk to him I can't do that Paul he's

requested a lawyer the rules have

changed kick him loose Mark you can't

just let him walk out of here I can't

hold

him and I can't allow you to speak to

him as long as he's in my custody

Dr

Raider you free to go

sir I apologize for any inconvenience

excuse me excuse me

yeah I know what you were doing it's

Spirit Falls I know what you were

looking for I know what you

found Outsiders were only invited into

Spirit Falls once in 1968 and a fire

threatened to destroy the town this

fire this Photograph was taken over 30

years ago this fireman's name is Dave

Robinson he's the chief of that

department now but your Miriam looks

like she hasn't aged in 30

years conventional evolutionary science

holds that modern man's lifespan has

doubled over the centuries but other

theories contend it was ancient man who

lived longer biblically longer

it's called the methusa lene that's what

you found in spirit Falls isn't it how

old is

she how old is

she there's no point in trying to

protect their secrets you can't save

them now it's too late but maybe not for

Miriam let me help you

72 she's

72 where is he

Miriam where's

Raider you were going to him when they

found

you you betrayed your people

you Dishonored their

sacrifice for

him even

now with the blood of all your people on

his

hands you still love him

what are you doing to

her asking her

questions she won't

answer she can

die she's the link to Raider our only

leverage he'll make contact he'll make

the

trade they call themselves The Eden

Society I'd never heard of them but they

knew all about me about my tiir research

church tiir is the end piece of every

DNA strand the candle wick of human

aging the longer a person lives the

shorter their tiir

becomes I documented a case outside

raiku viic Iceland the subject's tiir

appeared to be self-regenerating the

Eden Society offered to sponsor my work

their money allowed me to trace the

subjects pathology family history ethnic

migration pattern which led you to

Spirit Falls their entire way of life

was centered around keeping their secret

from the outside world no birth or death

records no dates on the Tombstones I had

very little to go

on based on photographic evidence and

anecdote I established their average

lifespan to be at least 130

years somewhere in that unpolluted genan

pool was the Fountain of Youth but they

wouldn't cooperate with you they believe

their longevity was a gift God's reward

for leading righteous

life something they couldn't give away

so you stole it from them you robbed

their graves for the tissue samples i'

have done

anything then I met

Miriam and everything

changed I contacted the Eden Society I

lied to them I told them I was wrong

about Spirit Falls that it was a dead

end but they were watching

me they knew all about me and and

Miriam and the samples that I'd already

collected I knew they were

coming I warned Miriam's

people I had no idea that but maram was

no used to them that one person isn't

enough you need a broad sampling in

order to

isolate the

jeans they took her to get to you

do you still have the

data well you're not suggesting he give

it to

them you know what these people do you

you know the way they operate the moment

they get what they want they'll kill

both of

them I know

get out of the car show the package

I assum the invitation was

transferable where is she

you're safe not yet

it's all

here you're okay

perhaps you should have killed

him you know the

directive Dr Turner must remain alive

until it is discovered who supplying him

with the

inoculant I'm beginning to question the

wisdom of that directive

we have what we came here

for hello Sydney I've got Miriam with me

where's Earl I gave him something to

help him sleep it's the first he's had

in 48 hours you meet me at the VA why

what's wrong I'm not

sure I'll see you there

Mariam I'll be right back okay

maybe we should consider a psych

evaluation what you witness may have

been a post-traumatic stress no there's

more to it well she's not displaying any

of the symptoms you described whatever

it is it seems to be hitting her in wavs

did you get a blood sample

yeah she didn't fight me but she didn't

like it you rush it through yes what are

you going to do get the one person she

might open up to Raider

since I was a child I've heard it said

that ours was a borrowed

gift but it's taken me this long a

lifetime to

understand a lesson learned at the hands

of those who would take our gift as

their

own even as they forsake its

Giver first you lose an entire town

now

this the contents of the discy retrieved

from Raider it's

impossible it was checked the gene

sequences were here your negligence has

been noted we've given the matter over

to more capable hands

Sydney where's Mary I'm having your

taken down to Radiology what why I'm

having your bone density tested for

osteoporosis I don't understand well

based on the preliminary test results

her HCG and estrogen levels are way

below normal which indicates

menopause she's

aging Dr McMillan

the patient you want to transfer she's

not in her room this's on her

bed what is

it as much as I love you it was vanity

to believe we could be

together ours was a borrowed

gift my people have always understood

that the day comes for such gifts to be

returned it's taken me this long a

lifetime to

understand and now at last I'm going

home

all right thank you very much bus pulled

into seport 45 minutes ago it's too late

we're too late she still got the five

miles to get into Spirit Falls that'll

take her some time you don't know Miriam

she's lived a lifetime in those woods

she's already home

M

Miriam Miriam

Earl Miriam

here he am

here I am

Miriam Miriam please you don't have to

do

this I already know

and I don't care

the Eden Society what is

it a name for something which has no

name you work for them don't

you and against them who are

they the drug that keeps me alive was it

created from the blood of people like

the ones who died

here how many have they

destroyed and why for what purpose when

you're ready I'm ready now you've proven

yourself

otherwise you were entrusted to

safeguard The Secret of spirit Falls

instead you delivered it into the hands

of those who would abuse it and for what

to save one

life yes and therein lies your

weakness you're blind to the sacrifices

which must be made in service of the

greater

purpose those whom you would fight

against they understand this

truth as did the people who inhabited

this place what are you doing I gave

your people what they wanted the disc

was compromised by

you I've been ordered to take Dr Raider

back to

them you're going to kill them

both it's the only

option two more willing suicides

the final necessary sacrifice no it's

not necessary none of this was ever

necessary you still don't understand no

you don't understand the secret of

spirit Falls it's not

genetic look at

her when she left her aging process

resumed its natural course the Secret's

not in the blood of spirit Falls it's in

spirit Falls herself in the place in in

the earth in the air a in the way the

people lived in their faith it's not in

their blood it never

was so go ahead give your people what

they've wanted all along Raiders

original data and they'll spend years

studying it looking for answers they'll

never

find don't take away whatever time these

two may have left

for

they're

safe

here are you okay tired

I can't explain what it was that brought

us

together what brings us together

still I only know that I am pulled

toward you by a force as sure as

gravity as constant as time

I'm comforted by that

certainty and willing now to accept

Whatever uncertainties May lie

ahead secure in that

knowledge and grateful that if only for

a short

time we were alive

we were

alive next on sci-fi Strange
