speak with you about

a theory regarding your condition.

-You just spoke.

-This is a new theory.

I believe that the creature could

in fact be a reborn Norman Oleander.

And I believe that you and

he share the same symbiotic condition.

Only his transformation

seems to be a permanent one.

If I were to obtain a tissue

sample of the Oleander creature,

perhaps by baiting and trapping it,

I believe I could help you

overcome your condition.

Or has that slipped your mind?

-No, it hasn't slipped my mind.

Alright?

It's the only thing on my mind.

-Have you considered a greater sacrifice?

-You mean death?

-Yes.

The death of this body.

it is possible that death is

now a part of your life cycle.

Three years ago you

destroyed Norman Oleander.

His skeleton remains,

yet it seems

his consciousness somehow lives on

in a new, replicated body.

Though there is a distinct possibility

that you could return in

permanent creature form

as he does.

-You're gonna wake me up,

transform me back.

-I will try.

-You will try.

Why don't you try dying?

See if you feel like

yourself when you come back?

I'm not killing myself just so

I can fight it with a fresh coat of paint.

alright?

I'm doing just fine.

-I'm rarely wrong, Kye.

Kill yourself.

-Come to me.

Come on.

Come on. Come to me.

Come on...

Come on...

Come on...

REEF!!!!

You damn genius.

We should talk more often!

-This is interesting.

I have cross-referenced

the Arrowhead crew medical records

and the tissue sample

does indeed match

that of Norman Oleander.

Although these cells have been

reproduced from a single source

most likely his original body.

Perhaps this strange sound could

lead you to its location.

-It was the same sound

the night I killed Oleander?

You heard that before?

-Yes. I also heard it

when you slit your own throat.

It seems as if something on this moon

is responding to your deaths vocally.

As if it were a mother

mourning the loss of its young.

Its power to recreate you is

activated each time you die.

Why does your hand shake?

-It's fine.

-Your body has been regenerated.

All of your physical elements

have been erased.

But the shake in your hand is consistent.

I would like it if you told me why.

-I don't know. I'm not...

I'm not a biologist.

-I have knowledge!

You mentioned biologist.

May I suggest a related topic?

-No.

-I apologize, Kye .

Will I really get a chance

to speak about her?

I've been wanting to speak

to you about it.

But I cannot, without being prompted.

-Yes, REEF, what is it?

-Here is some suggested material.

Would you like to explore?

-Am I gonna like

what I see?

-I don't know.

-You recorded this?
