-Hello?

Hi, Walter.

No, I was just reading.

What's happening with you?

To the movies?

Well, I don't know. What are you going to see'?

Maria who?

An Osborne skier film festival.

No. I don't think so, Walter.

Oh, besides my favorite program is coming on

and I don't want to miss it.

Well, look, Walter,

why don't I give you a call back later if I'm still hanging around, okay?

Walter, look, I have to go.

I think my cat knocked over one of my flower pots.

Yes, Walter.

Yes.

All right.

Oh, shit.

Gordon?

Gordon?

Oh, wow.

Oh, great.

Now, where do they hide the fuse box in this house?

No. Help. No.

- Anything? - Not a thing.

Some sticky substance.

-What is it?

-I have no clue.

Look, it's all over everything.

You know, I'm gonna take what he have down to the lab for analysis.

-Okay but can you fix the time of death for me?

-I have to guess.

Say about 7 to 10 last night.

Usually, I can give you something closer

but with the cold temperature makes all the usual test unreliable.

-It wasn't cold last night.

-It wasn't here?

-Take it away.

-Lou.

What do you got?

-Not a hell of a lot, chief.

-That the girl?

-Yes, her name is Janie Richter.

Her left leg was ripped from her body

and her hair was pulled back so hard that it broke her neck.

Whoever did this tore the closet door off the hinges.

-Lou, the pressure is on to find this guy.

I'm counting on you to bring him in soon.

I've got the mayor, the commissioner, and the press on my back.

Lou, shit rolls downhill.

- You read me? - What do you want me to do?

Go out and arrest a burn to get them off your back?

-Lou, you know what I mean.

-Look, chief, I told you, we don't have a clue.

We have no witnesses, no prints, no nothing.

Look, chief, if you want to catch this guy,

let's bring Ted lonergan in on the case.

-Forget it, capell.

I'm already dealing with one maniac. I don't need another one.

-He's the best and you know it.

-I don't know it.

The police department is doing very nicely without him.

Lou, I don't give a damn how you solve this case,

but if you bring any embarrassment to the department,

so help me, I'll fry your ass.

You got that?

-Yes. I got it, chief.

-No lonergan.

-Asshole.

-We have an agreement.

You deliver five books per year.

-I delivered five books.

-Five different books, not the same story over and over again.

-What do you want? Blood, Victor?

Why don't you fight right here? That way, the marks won't show.

-Oh, that's very funny, Ted.

It's very funny, but it won't be so funny when I stopped the checks.

-Victor, you're an idiot and I can prove it.

You know why you're not going to stop the checks, huh?

You know why?

Because those tired old plots were the same ones

that gave you that home in bel-air

and that rolls corniche sitting in your driveway.

Lighten up.

-You guys kill me.

Every writer thinks that this is the great American novel,

but you know what it is, Ted?

You know what it really is?

It's garbage.

-I can listen to you all day.

You're right, it is garbage.

You buy it.

-Contract with no contract.

You better shape up or pull the rug right off your foot.

-You got to look where you're going.

-You hit me.

-What?

-I said you hit me.

-I did?

Oh, yes, would you ever think about maybe getting a smaller car?

This thing is like a bolt cruiser, kind of hard to miss, like a tank.

-I don't want another car.

I like this car

and I especially like this car without any dents.

-Yes. It probably would look better without dents.

-Look what you've done?

-Oh, gee, I hit the rear quarter panel there.

I bet it's really hard to find parts for this car.

Especially that little chrome strip, that's going to be tough to find.

-You jerk.

This car has been in my family for years without any accidents.

It's never going to be the same

and you didn't even look,

you just threw your car in a gear and smashed into me.

How the hell did you ever get a license?

-Would you like some atomic rocks?

-What?

-Atomic rocks, would you like some?

-I think you're crazy

-juicy fruit? I got a stick of juicy fruit here somewhere.

-I'm going to call the police.

-Oh, miss, you forgot something.

-Than ks.

-Hey, look, I'm sorry I hit your car.

I understand why you're upset.

Here, let me give you my card, okay?

Do you have a pen?

Something like that?

Here's my phone number and my address,

I need my driver's license number.

You just come by my office anytime.

I'll give you a check for the damages, okay?

It was really nice meeting you and I am sorry that I hit your car.

- Wait a minute. - You're not leaving, are you?

-Well, yes,

- I've got to go back to my office. - No, you can't leave.

I've got to call the police and report this.

-Oh, okay.

All right. I tell you what, the number is 555-9000.

A guy with a name of Chuck will answer the phone.

He's really a nice guy.

You just tell him what happened and they'll send a squad by, okay?

-No, you've got to stay here.

-Oh, no, I can't.

Here, have some atomic rocks.

What's your name?

-Jennifer Stanton.

-Oh, I'll see you soon, Jenny.

-Wait.

-Oh, for Christ's sake, would you move?

-Don't rush me. That's how you make mistakes in this game.

-You've been working on that move for two days.

-Hey, you want to play chess or you want to argue?

-That's your move?

Yes.

-What the hell are you doing?

- What do you mean? - You just throw away your queen?

-Hey, I got a plan.

- Yes, right. You got a plan. - You threw your queen and you got a plan.

You're crazy. Do you know that?

By the way, how's the asshole?

- You mean, Warren? - Who else?

-He's doing the same thing we're all doing.

Trying to find some psycho who's running around trashing people.

-Yes, I read about that in the paper.

Got any clues?

-No, nothing that makes any sense.

Ted, why don't you come down to the office

- and look at some of the files... - No, Lou. No.

-Ted, I think you ought to give this thing a chance.

You know you're the best I've ever seen

- at this kind of job. - I told you a long time ago.

I am through with investigation

and don't go talking to Warren

because I don't want anything to do with him.

-You sound like a 34-year-old has-been to me.

-Yes, well, maybe I am, but I don't need any of your goddamn social work.

-Yes, well, I'm sorry.

-Me too.

-By the way, check.

-What?

- Yes. - Is this Mr. Lonergan's office?

-Oh, yes, hi, come on in.

-Yes, well, I think I hear captain video calling me

on the optical scholameter.

-Oh, you don't have to go away.

I just wanted to talk to Mr. Lonergan about my car.

-You're the crazy...

The lady with the jank?

I know I've got to go now.

- See you later, Ted. - Yes, bye Lou.

Get a spot here.

My mate's coming in next week.

Please, sit.

-Mr. Lonergan, I hate to be blunt, but...

-You want me to pay you for the damage to your car?

-It will cost at least $1,200 to repair my car

and I think you will admit that it was your fault.

-Yes, well, I'm starting to understand I can't give you a cheque.

-I thought so.

-All I have is cash.

A little while quirk of mine. I don't trust bankers.

-There's over $2,000 in here.

-Yes. Well, that's in case you have trouble finding parts.

_n0_ -oh, which reminds me

here's the name of a guy

who can find parts if you need him.

His name is Hewitt. He's Scottish.

Those are Mark nine check, right?

-Yes.

-Look, I am sorry that I hit your car.

I know sometimes people can become attached to something like that.

-Yes, it's just that it does have a certain sentimental value.

Excuse me for you're saying this,

but this is really not the reaction I expected to get.

After this morning, I thought I'd be dealing with a real mental case.

-Well, I'm in contact with earth, occasionally,

but don't be fooled by this calm exterior.

It's just a clever disguise.

Actually, I'm errol Flynn.

- Well, errol, it was nice meeting you. - Yes,

Jen, maybe we'll run into each other again.

I hope not.

-Yes.

Hey, sorry about that.

Look, why don't you let me take you out to dinner

and make it up to you.

-Oh, I don't think so.

Besides, you've already made it up to me.

Thanks again, Mr. Lonergan.

-Oh, Ted.

- Ted. Okay, Ted. - Yes, Ted.

Bye, Ted.

-Hey, you guys. That's my car.

Wow. I can walk from here,

I think.

Listen, I'll call you guys tomorrow

- if I'm still alive. - Okay.

- Bye. - Bye.

-Than ks.

What's the matter with you?

Shit.

Stupid car.

Come on, start.

What am I going to do?

-Here on this quiet little street in sherman oaks, a college coed,

22-year-old Janie Richter became victim number 11

in a series of brutal slayings over the past few weeks.

The coroner's office issued a report this morning

that Ms. Richter's body had been found beaten.

Apparently, her neck had been broken

and her left leg ripped from her body.

Los Angeles police chief Dennis Warren

stated today that the killer will be caught

and that the police department is working around the clock

to bring the killer to justice.

Informed sources say however that the police department has no real clues

and such statements by chief Warren are wishful thinking.

This is Alex waverley in sherman oaks for kj.

-Jennifer.

I hope this is the right color.

-I've changed my mind.

A woman's prerogative.

Can we have dinner? It's on me.

Eight-ish.

I'll pick you up here.

- Ted? - Hello?

-Hi, it's Jennifer.

- Oh, hi. Come on in. - I'll be out in a second.

-Okay.

Are you all right?

- Yes, I'm all right. - Just hold on a second.

-I found this great restaurant in century city.

They have their own wine cellar and the food is fantastic.

Hi.

Tell you what,

why don't we have dinner at my place?

I have some steaks and it'll be quiet

and we can talk and you won't have to dress up.

-Sure. Great. Yes, I'd love to.

Okay.

Dinner jacket here.

-Could Jeff looking Betty Crocker, is it?

No.

Actually, it's very basic.

-It was very good. I enjoyed it very much.

-Okay.

I'm feeling a little bit of the wine.

-Good.

-Would you like some more.

-Yes, I would.

How about some music?

-Yes.

-Any request?

-Roberto valero?

-What?

-Nevermind.

-Thank you. I like a girl with commitment.

There you go.

You're very funny.

-A little bit.

Tell me,

excuse me.

Isn't this the part of the evening that you say,

so, Ms. Stanton, tell me a little bit about yourself?

-I don't have to, I know everything.

You were born in September 20th, 1950 in Boston, Massachusetts.

You had a very happy childhood.

You graduated from redcliff,

with a 3.6 in economics.

Your father owned a tool and die company.

Your parents were killed in an automobile accident in 1975.

Shall I go on?

-No, that's all right.

-I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

That's all right.

It's an old habit.

-That's right you are a detective.

-Was.

I was a detective but not anymore.

Let me ask you a question.

-What?

-Why'd you decide to go out with me tonight

or whatever it is we're doing here?

-You're kind of cute

and you do have a way about you.

-Don't mistake being comatose for style.

-What do you have on your cheek there?

Don't touch it. Don't touch it.

You're beautiful.

Come here.

-I don't get it, Bert.

How come anytime something goes wrong in the middle of the night simpoe says,

"call tindall."

-Oh, sure. He won't mind getting up at 3:00 in the morning

to bend pipes and wait in crap

call tindall.

-Maybe he just likes your smile.

-You know what, I was doing with a gal, don't you?

-Valerie?

-Oh, yes. Oh, yes.

Oh, yes.

-I get the picture, Howard.

-I got to teach you how to school.

-Spare me.

-Come on.

-Jesus, it's cold down here.

-Hey did you hear something?

-Hey, like what, rowdy boy?

-I'm serious.

-Hey, you know, there's something down here.

Hey, maybe it's Valerie come back for more.

-Hey, Howard, that sounded pretty good.

Howard?

I suppose you're waiting for me to come down there

and play some kind of game with you.

What you do, you're a bigger asshole than I think you are.

Howard? Howard?

Oh, come on, man.

Howard, don't make me come down there.

Shit.

Oh, look, man, you know I scare easy.

Howard?

Howard?

Holy shit.

-Oh, damn it.

-Hello, Ted.

-Hi, Lou.

What brings you here?

-Just in the area.

Wow, what happened here?

-Hi.

Ted, where do you want these?

-Jennifer, this is Lou capell.

You've met him before.

- The crazy lady with the jag. - Crazy lady with the jag.

-Lou's an old friend.

He's with the police force.

Well, I'll let you two play cops and robbers if you like.

I just want to know where to file this, and I'll go back and finish.

-You file this one underakkerman f.

And the other one in the big green file under o'ouinn k.

-Okay.

Bye-bye, Lou.

- It was nice seeing you. - Oh, it's my pleasure.

That's a very nice lady.

-Yes. What are you doing here?

-You know it's been a long time since you've been down to the office,

I thought I'd come by and let you know what's happening.

-About those murder cases, right?

- Yes. - Lou...

-Look, wait a minute, before you start to get upset,

would you hear me out for once, please?

Please hear me out.

Ted,

you and I have worked together on some off-beat cases,

but this is the strangest case I've ever been on in my life.

Look,

people in this town are dying like flies

and I don't know what you've read in the newspapers,

but there's some cycle running loose in la and he's killing people at random.

-There's always a pattern.

-Yes. Not to this one, there's not.

Whoever this guy is, he's stronger

and more cunning than anybody we've ever been up against.

He pulled the door completely off the car

- of his last victim. - Oh, Lou, come on.

-Listen, if you don't believe me,

I'll take you down to the office and show you the car.

Ted, I'm flying blind on this thing.

The only thing I got going for me is Kathy sperry is latest victim.

She's still alive,

but she's in a coma

and there's a chance she may come out of it,

but if she doesn't,

Ted, I talked to the chief and he said, I can bring you in.

- No, Lou. - He'd give anything you want.

-Look, I appreciate what you are trying to do for me,

but I don't want any half-asked therapy.

-Look, I'm not here because I think you are some charity case.

I'm here because people out there need you

and I need your help.

Ted, look, you're my best shot.

-I am sorry.

I am not ready for that yet.

-Yes. Well, I'm sorry too.

Seems like I've been hearing that a lot around here lately.

-You know, I'm gonna let you guys find this dump here.

I gotta go back to the car.

Can I have the keys, please?

-What for?

-It's going to get dark in an hour.

I forgot my lip gloss.

-Sandy, what are you doing?

-I'm getting my lip gloss.

-Christ. We're going skating.

Not to chasings.

-Hey, we can still skate if it gets dark.

They do turn on the lights at night.

-Don't worry, Kelly.

It's not going to get dark for a few hours yet.

-We're going to go take a run.

Come on back right away, okay?

I'll have this fixed in a minute and we can go for a run together.

-What the hell was that?

-Sounds like someone's power steering up again.

- When is Kelly coming back? - I wanna skate.

-She'll be back in a minute.

She probably went all the way to the bottom.

-Get to tunnel with Kelly.

-No, don't try and scare me.

-Yes, I do. Come on, let's go.

Let's go.

-Wait a minute. I'm not going.

Hey, don't leave me.

Hey, you guys, this is Kelly's. She wouldn't leave these here.

-I don't see her.

Kelly?

Kelly?

Kelly?

-I don't like this.

Scott, let's go back to the car, come on.

-What do you got? Radar or what?

-Well, that's why I'm the chief and you...

-Spare me, my illusionist, don't finish that.

-You think this is the work of that same creep?

-Yes, looks like it.

-Any witnesses?

-No. I talked to all the kids

and they were up on the top level when this thing happened.

-Notified the parents?

-No, not yet.

-Don't you think that'd be a good idea to give them a call now?

-I thought I'd go over to see them in person, chief.

-Who is that?

What the hell is he doing here?

- Ted. - What the hell's he think he's doing?

Listen, if you had anything to do with this I'll have...

-Warren, how you doing?

Looks like somebody interrupted your dinner party.

-Well, lonergan,

I wondered if you'd be sober long enough to stick your nose into this.

-My, my aren't we hostile.

Talk is, is that you need all the help you can get.

But then again, you never were able to find your own ass with both hands.

-Get him out of here.

Get him out of here before I kick his tail into the slammer

and throw away the key.

Get him out.

-That's just fine. That's just fine.

What the hell do you think you're doing?

I've been working on him for two weeks.

I almost had him convinced.

- He's an asshole. - I know that.

You don't have one ounce of diplomacy in your body, Ted.

Look, Ted, I consider you a friend.

I would appreciate it if you would go over and apologize.

-Ted, I'm going to go meet that girl over there.

She says she has some information.

She doesn't want to talk to the police.

- Okay. - Okay?

- Yes. - You all right?

-Yes, I'm fine.

-Okay. Goodbye.

Sherry?

Sherry?

Sherry carpenter?

Come on, Jennifer, it's all right.

It's nothing.

Nice.

Sherry.

Oh, shit.

- Jennifer? - Ted, it's Lou.

-Oh, hi, Lou. What's up?

- It's Jennifer, Ted. - She's in the hospital in deep coma.

Ted, are you there?

-What? What happened?

-They're not sure.

The doctors think it's a brain tumor.

She was in a place called the aberdeen research facility.

She apparently went into convulsions and into a coma.

The young girl who works there found her.

-Where is she?

-In central.

-I'd like to go in there if I could.

- I can't let you go in there right now. - I'm sorry.

-I'd like to see Ms. Stanton if I could.

-You know Ms. Stanton?

-Yes.

-We've been trying to get in touch with her relatives.

-I don't think she has any.

Can I go in and see her?

-No, I can't let you go in there right now.

Besides, she wouldn't even know you were there.

-What the hell happened?

Is she going to be all right?

-We don't know a lot about what happened,

but apparently, she went into a form of epileptic convulsions,

and then into a comatose condition.

I'm afraid she's slowly slipping into a profound state.

-What does that mean?

-Next 24 hours will tell,

but you have to know her chances aren't good.

Sorry.

Listen, could you come downstairs to admissions?

-Ted? Ted, it's Lou.

Come on, get yourself together. What are you doing?

You can't go on like this.

- Right. - Come on.

No, you've had enough of that.

- Stuff's going to kill you. - I don't care, I need a drink.

-Do you think that Jennifer would want you to act like this?

-Excuse me, are you Mr. Lonergan?

-Yes, I'm lonergan.

You look familiar.

-My name is Sherry carpenter.

I would like...

-You talked to Jennifer, right?

- Yes. - You were going to meet her somewhere.

- My car overheated and I couldn't... - What the hell did you do to her?

-Nothing. I didn't do anything.

-Oh. Haven't you done enough damage already? Get out of my office.

- Would you just get the hell out of here? - Ted, take it easy.

Look, she didn't have anything to do with it.

Jennifer had a brain tumor.

Ted, you got to stop doing this to yourself.

-That's what I came to talk to you about.

I do not think she has a brain tumor.

-What the hell does that mean?

-Look, lady, the attending physician said that she's...

-Comatose due to a possible brain tumor.

You see, that's how it kills.

That's how it would look.

-That's how what kills? How what looks?

-Let me start from the beginning.

When I got out of college,

I had an opportunity to work for Dr. Amberdine.

I had majored in biology, specifically genetics.

Dr. Amberdine was working in genetic engineering.

He was at work, in secret, on designing a new life form.

-This is real fascinating, but what does it have to do with Jennifer?

-I'm getting to that.

Look, do you want to hear this ordontyou?

-No, not really.

- Ted, shut up. Would you go on, lady? - We're sorry.

-He actually succeeded in designing a totally new life form.

I mean something that has never existed before.

Resilient, intelligent, and I think very deadly.

He told me once that if it ever grew up, it would probably be very dangerous.

-I take it, it never grew up?

-I don't know.

You see,

Dr. Amberdine had a heart attack and died.

I know he planned on killing it before it got too big,

but he didn't get a chance.

He was working alone when he died and the creature escaped.

We all assumed that it crawled away somewhere and died.

-What makes you think different now?

-The murders.

It feeds on spinal fluid.

It draws out of its victim with a needle-like tongue.

-Yes, but we never had any murders like that.

-Yes, but most people wouldn't be looking for it,

because its victims would look like they had an epileptic fit

or a brain tumor.

-Why didn't you come forward with this sooner?

-I wasn't sure.

- Have you seen this thing? - Do you know what it looks like?

-No.

I snuck in once,

but it was only in its embryonic stage then.

-Ted, is it possible?

-At least check into it.

What have you got to lose?

Please, if this thing grows up...

-Lou, she's right.

Let's check it out.

Look, I want you to go talk to the coroner

and find out if they overlooked anything. I mean anything.

-Okay, I'll give you a call.

In the meantime, get her name and phone number.

-I want to see if I can find the center point of these attacks.

If this thing is real, how are we going to kill it?

-I don't know.

I only came in on the end of the experiment.

-You said the doctor...

-Amberdine, -amberdine,

he was planning on killing it.

-It's true.

There's some experiment notes.

Now they might tell us something.

-You still got them?

-The originals were taken by the people who were financing the project,

but I made some copies for myself.

I'll go back and get them if you want.

-Do that, go get them.

Oh, and look, I'm sorry about what happened earlier.

I'll be back soon. I'm just going to go down to the lab.

- Hello? - Ted? Lou.

- Hi Lou. - Hi buddy, I've been doing some checking

and that girl of yours is right on the money.

There's been an unusually high instant of brain tumor and epileptic deaths.

-Are you sure?

-The coroner also said that

a lot of the death victims had a tremendous loss of spinal fluid.

Listen, I'm beginning to think that the girl was right.

If she is, that means that there have been a lot more deaths than have been reported.

- I'll tell you. - There's something I don't understand,

is how the hell something like this creature

could get around town without being seen?

Nobody's reported anything strange.

-I know. That's one of the parts of the puzzle that doesn't fit.

I'm afraid I got another one for you.

-What?

-The case has been closed.

-What?

-I got a bulletin the other day which reads,

"the suspect was cornered and was killed

during a subsequent gun battle with police."

-Where? What division?

-It didn't say.

I tried to get more information,

but the big wigs upstairs put a gag order on it.

-I think they're trying to cover something up.

-You don't know that.

-You know something else?

They're going to stop looking.

-Look, Ted, this isn't getting us anywhere.

Now, I cannot be involved in this thing official anymore.

The case is closed.

-Dammit.

-Ted, hey, take it easy.

It doesn't mean that I'm giving up.

Tell you what I'm going to do,

I'm going to come over to your office after I borrow a few things here,

and we'll see if we can figure it out, okay?

Ted?

-Okay.

Look, I'm sorry, Lou. I just got a little excited.

I'll talk to you soon.

-Right.

-Oh Christ, that's where the lab is.

7:21 pm.

It's been 512 hours since birth.

The syngenor is growing at an astounding rate.

The vertebrae heat exchange system is functioning at maximum.

Drawing the warm air in

and expelling cold air out into its surroundings,

the organism is able to maintain the high body temperatures

needed for its internal chemistry.

Still small at this point,

I'm unable to determine what proportions the being might attain

when fully grown.

The question, I'm afraid, will have to remain unanswered

as the syngenor already exhibits extremely aggressive behavior.

Its diet being what it is,

spinal fluid,

along with what seems an almost diabolical cunning

could make this creature extremely dangerous

if I were to allow it to reach maturity.

10:42.

The syngenor is becoming increasingly difficult to manage.

When it's not pounding or chewing on its container,

it just sits there staring at me,

its silvery eyes almost glowing,

burning into me.

I have to admit it's a little unnerving.

I will have to put an end to the syngenor soon.

I can't allow it to get any larger.

- Sherry, it's Ted. - Sherry, settle down, would you?

What is it? What's wrong? What's wrong?

-There was a man over there.

- Just listen to me. - Settle down, settle down.

Show me, show me.

It's okay. It's all right.

-What happened to him?

-I don't know.

What is this stuff? Do you know?

-No.

-Looks like a maintenance worker,

-or a construction worker.

In the sewer.

The sewer.

It's killing them.

-The sewer, that's where it is.

That's how the thing gets around without anybody seeing it.

-Ted, there's something I found out, something in the notes.

I think the thing is getting ready to reproduce.

-How is that possible? I thought there was only one of these things.

-Yes, but it doesn't need a mate to reproduce.

Not all organisms do.

What are you going to do?

Don't you think you want to call for help or something?

At least call the police?

-By the time they get here, it's going to be too late.

You should go home and stay there. Okay?

-You're right, I should.

I should, but I'm not going to.

-What are you doing?

- I'm going with you. - No, you're not.

-Yes, I am.

Besides, you need me.

- Oh, I do? - Sure.

I'm the only one that knows all about this thing.

It's called the syngenor.

-What?

-It stands for synthesized genetic organism.

- Sherry, this is not a game. - We are dealing with a killing machine.

I'm not going to risk your life by taking you with me.

-Do you think I'd be any safer up here?

-No, but you'd be safer at home.

-If you go down there, I am not going home.

I am going to wait for you, right here.

-Come on.

-What a smell.

-What'd you expect?

-Which way?

-This way.

-What have you planning on doing when you go face to face with that thing?

-Ventilating it a little.

-I don't think I like the way you said oh.

How big is this thing right now?

-I'm not sure.

-What's it look like?

-I don't know.

-I thought you said you know all about this thing.

-Let's go.

-No. Come on.

It feeds off of these people.

Let's get out of here.

Sherry, no, no, no, this way.

Sherry, come on, come on.

-I can't move it. I can't lift it.

Ted, it's too heavy.

-I got you.

God. Sherry, come on back down.

Come on, come on. Come here, come here. Go, go, go.

There's a grate in here. Damn.

Oh, it's too high. Dammit.

There's a ladder back there.

I'm going to have to go get it.

-Wait a minute.

Please come back.

Ted.

Hurry, please. Hurry.

Go, go. Move, move.

-Ted, I dropped my glasses.

-That's it, the sewer.

Ed, I want us to get on the radio and get somebody out here

who has a map of this darn system, right now.

-Okay.

-Locked.

- The door at the back. - This way. Go, go, go, go.

No, come on. Come on, this way.

There's got to be another way out of here.

Sherry, if we can break that window, we're outta here.

I can't get up. I need something else.

-This stuff is either too heavy or it's bolted down.

-Thing isn't going to work.

There's got to be something else.

-Ted, it's in here.

-Go, go, go, go.

Go, move, move, move, move.

There's got to be something. There has got to be something.

- What? What? - Come on. Go, go, go.

-What are you doing?

-We can win.

Sherry, listen to me. Listen very carefully.

This thing can wait us out,

and we don't stand a chance unless we do something.

What I'm going to try and do, is

I'm going to try to get him-

I'm going to try to lure him over the bed,

on the bed of this drop forge.

If can do that, if I can get him there, I want you to operate this machine.

-I can't operate this thing.

- Shut up. Yes, you can. - Now, listen to me.

You got to hit both of these buttons at the same time,

otherwise, it won't operate.

Put your foot on that.

That's the safety.

If your foot is not in there, it will not operate.

Do you understand?

You have to hit both buttons at the same time,

otherwise, it won't operate.

I'll be right back.

-Ted, wait a minute.

Ted, the power went out.

There's a note, and it says something about breakers.

Ted, the power's back on.

I can't see you.

Ted.

Ted.

Ted?

Come on, Ted.

-Ted.

-Sherry, you have to press, you have to press.

-Ted.

Ted.

Ted.

No. No. No. No.
