Germ Page #5

I just want you,

it's gonna be a little warm

I want you to go ahead

and put it in your mouth

and you'll bite down evenly.

Wait a minute!

What's going on here?

It's all standard procedure

in a case like this.

For a bear attack?

I know it seems

a little strange, but...

KIM:
Whoa.

You think...

you think I ate him?

Oh, my God!

Now, Kim, please,

we're just trying to...

What the f*** are you saying?

I think I'm gonna get sick!

What's that?

A bucket for my vomit?

For my vomit, right?

To check my vomit.

Because you think I ate him?

Fine! I'll take

your test.

Just get it over with!

Okay, Kim.

Just go ahead

and put it in your mouth,

bite down evenly.

All right.

That's it.

That's it?

You're not gonna arrest me?

Well, we do have

to hold you here

until we get the results back.

I want you to tell me now!

You think I ate him?

I want you to know now!

I don't think it's a match.

Jesus Christ!

Kim...

I'm really sorry

about all this,

but we had to be...

Is there anything else?

No.

Good.

Then kindly f*** off!

Come on, Chrissy, let's go.

Come on.

You know, Hardy Boys,

if it wasn't a bear attack,

and it wasn't me,

then what was it?

Kim!

God damn it.

Okay.

That's the other bad news.

What's that?

There were multiple

bite patterns

on the kid's body, all right?

There's more than one killer,

more accurately,

more than one eater.

You got to be kidding me.

(CLEARS THROAT) There's

one other thing.

His hypothalamus was

extremely enlarged.

So?

It's still growing.

Almost exponentially.

Even though he's dead?

Even though he's dead.

Look, you're the doc here,

but isn't that a bit unusual?

Of the body that

continue to grow

after death, but

the hypothalamus

is usually not one

of them, all right?

So, I've done a little digging

and I found something

interesting going on, all right?

Don't you need

permission for that?

Okay, you know the drill.

We move out in 20 towards

the impact crater.

If you see any of the locals,

get a check on conditions,

then check back with me.

Get any spikes in your meters,

and you pull back double quick.

Other than that, it's bag it and

tag it, and we can go home.

Damn, it's hot out.

Gonna be like hell today.

MAX:
Ugh. You pulled

this out of Chad's head?

(RADIO CHATTER)

I don't know what that means.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Okay.

I've never seen anything

like that, all right?

It's structure is,

frankly, alien.

Alien, like, foreign?

No, alien, like as in alien.

As in not from around

here, as in Earth.

What?

Okay.

There are hypotheses

about the possibility

of germs from space

landing on a planet, okay?

Galactic pan-spermia,

for example.

And nobody really
