Harbinger Down Page #3

Synopsis: A group of grad students have booked passage on the crabbing boat Harbinger to study the effects of global warming on a pod of Belugas in the Bering Sea. When the ship's crew dredges up a recently thawed piece of old Soviet space wreckage, things get downright deadly. It seems that the Russians experimented with tardigrades, tiny resilient animals able to withstand the extremes of space radiation. The creatures survived, but not without mutation. Now the crew is exposed to aggressively mutating organisms. And after being locked in ice for 3 decades, the creatures aren't about to give up the warmth of human companionship.

of thing hickety-pickety.

Okay? C.S.I:
Alaska.

Look, Sadie, I know you're excited.

Me, too. And kudos to you for playing

a huge part in finding this thing.

It's gonna be wonderful for your career,

but it's a big deal.

Okay? And it needs to be managed properly.

And you just don't have

the experience, kiddo.

That's where I come in, okay?

And I will look out for you.

We got it.

Okay. Good.

He's planning to cut you out of this.

- But if I countermand him

- The salvage rights are yours.

If Professor Asswipe wasn't here,

what would you be doing right now?

G, run distraction for a second.

I think we got off

on the wrong foot earlier.

I'm sorry?

Sometimes I...

I overcompensate.

It's kinda I come off strong.

It's kinda hard for me to talk about it.

We don't have a lot of meaningful

conversation in this job.

Hey, do you have a second?

Sure.

I get teased a lot because of my size.

And I've never talked to anybody

about it, but...

- you're a doctor, right?

- Well, yes, but I'm not a psychologist.

Although I have read extensively

on the subject.

Sure, most of my experience

is theoretical, not practical

but I think I could help you.

Can you read any of these?

Nothing special. Radio, on/off.

How do you say, retro booster?

Lunniy Korabl.

The ship was moon lander.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah.

They abandoned their moon

missions in the 70s.

Maybe they made it, but kept it a secret?

He didn't burn to death.

Fortunately, and I know we just met

I think you're socio-centric,

which gives you hope.

I mean, that you can,

if you sort of face it head on...

can help that stagnated

individual get beyond...

that sort of... I would say immature...

stagnation in their development,

cognitive development.

Of course, it's not your job

to be anyone's clinician.

You know, I'm not saying you have to,

you know, put on a lab coat or anything.

Although I think

you'd look great in a lab coat.

I do. Wouldn't he look great

in a lab coat?

Extra, extra, extra, extra,

extra, extra, extra large.

- Extra.

- Oh, I'm doing it.

I'm teasing you now.

I'm stagnating. I'm sorry.

I don't know this word.

Translates to "water-bear"?

Let's go.

- Don't you want to check this...

- I've got what I need.

I would also suggest

looking into some books on tape.

I have some...

You know, drinking isn't gonna

make the pain go away.

- God. I hope you're wrong.

- Big G, you might want to slow down.

You know, every time you call him

Big G, you point out his size.

Are you aware of that?

This is a sensitive fellow

trapped in a giant's body.

- Oh, I'm trapped all right.

- He's so sensitive.

- You're not interested in Piaget at all?

- Not unless it's a brand of vodka.
