Now get over there right away.

Well, I think I understand the situation.

Is there anything else yoU can tell me?

No, I'm sorry.

I'd Iike to take a look around the estate.

Of coUrse. I appreciate yoUr coming so quickly.

In the wood l foUnd a dog.

It was horribly mUtilated.

Whatever did that...

No, bUt plenty of tracks. We can drive around, if yoU Iike.

AboUt here is where we found his hat.

What's over there?

JUst a tumbledown shack. Some hippies were living there.

Let's take a look.

- They seem to have moved oUt. - They'II probably be back.

We ran into one of them yesterday. RUss chased him around.

Tried to scare him off.

His dog. Scruffy-Iooking thing.

Can your brother swim?

Like a fish.

Listen.

- There's nothing. - Like before.

- Before? - With Russ, earlier.

And his horse was frightened . It was sweating.

I want yoU to do something for me.

What happened? What happened?

Over there... Culley.

'How long to get the Mobiles into position?'

- ShoUId be aboUt ten minUtes. - 'Let's hope yoUr theory's right.'

There's no other explanation.

- Mobile Two? - 'ln position and ready.'

Roger.

Set detonation for ten seconds.

Mobile One, fire.

Mobile Two. .. fire.

(Siren wails)

(Inaudible)

(Clicking)

- We'll move it oUt. - That coUId be dangerous.

Any movement coUId blow this place to pieces.

- YoU mean defUse it here? - I don't know, PaUI.

I'm not saying that it is an explosive device

but we must treat it as one.

LieUtenant, sound a red alert.

Clear all non-essential personnel from the complex.

This is a red alert. This is an internal emergency.

All personnel on B Roster to evacUate area.

(AIarm sounds)

- Could be a long wait. - There's an old miners' saying...

the nearer you are to an explosion, the better yoUr chances are.

(Clicks)

It can't be mUch Ionger.

- What aboUt the other wreckage? - Most of it disintegrated.

- And this didn't. - No.

It must be something pretty special.

(Woman) 'The radiation tests will be through in two minUtes, sir.'

We'II be right there.

(Beeping)

Listen to this, Commander.

OK.

(Ping)

We're picking it up on the aUdio sensor from somewhere in the centre.

Well, what do yoU make of it?

It's regUIar. Mechanical.

(Ping)

(Ping)

(Ping)

We think we've pinpointed the mechanism here.

If we cUt an exploratory hole here,

we can get an x-ray and see what makes it tick.

Once we start cutting, sir, anything can happen.

All right. Let's get on with it.

Right.

Temperature low.

Radiation negative.

- Any readings? - No, sir. Still no reaction.

All right. Let's get moving.

Now we'II find oUt what we're up against, sir.

There's no possible doUbt?

No, sir. lt is a hUman heart.

- RUssell Stone. - It must be.

They slowed his metabolism and pulse by lowering body temperature.
