All language subtitles for Bugs s02e03 Bugged Wheat.eng

I'm locking in on the intruder now.

Bring it back alive.

What if it puts up a fight?

I'm sure you'll be able to manage it.

Well, this is a first.

How did you get in here?

Intruder acquired.

It's a Papilio Aristolochia.

A what?

A butterfly.

Don't worry, it's harmless.

There's no way it should be in here.

There must be a breach in the filtering
system.

I'm picking up another reading.

It's coming from the southeast quadrant.

A hot one.

I can't get the visual.

Check it out.

Stop! Report, please.

Please, state your position.

I'm going into the field.

Okay.

I've got 60 seconds.

We have a security breach in CEL 4.

It's working, we're on it.

Wow. Our lab is on the cutting edge of
grain research.

The European Agronomy Council has
invested millions in developing a new

of wheat.

We thought it was resistant to all known
diseases.

Guess you missed one.

Looks to me like some kind of viral
destruction.

Maybe a new strain of viroid.

Viroid?

Sounds like a B -movie alien.

Ed, viroids are a very specialised
microvirus which...

Target plants?

You know, I'd say this was just the
beginning. A trial run for something

bigger. That's my fear.

This was the perfect man -made
agricultural environment.

Very own Garden of Eden, eh?

If they're capable of laying waste to
this, I dread to think what havoc they

could wreak in the real world.

Do you have any idea who might be
responsible?

We have the raiders on video from a
security cam.

The resolution's low. The image is very
poor.

Grainy.

It's beautiful.

It is beautiful.

But deadly.

Any idea what strain it is?

It's a hybrid of some sort.

Not one I've come across before.

They're not harmful to humans?

No, no, no.

Viroids, they're very choosy. This one's
chosen wheat.

Nothing's going to change that.

You said that your lab's been developing
this wheat to be resistant to all known

infections.

Now... Who'd have a reason for wanting
you to fail?

Pesticide companies.

They make fortunes from protecting
cereals against this sort of thing.

I'm going into the field.

Grainy was right.

Oh, come on, you've seen worse.

That's very good.

I'm not finished yet. I'm running
through the profile database, see if we

get a name.

Ah, I unplugged the modem to upgrade the
chipset. Can you reconnect for me?

Sure.

Oh, dear.

Oh!

It may be harmless, but it's not
legless, Ros. I hate creepy crawlies.

Beckett, did you know our very own
Spider -Man is afraid of insects?

Ros!

And I thought Ed was fearless.

Greenville's been filling me in on our
prime suspects.

The major pesticide companies.

Ros, any luck with that video yet?

Just in. One positive ID.

James Hawke.

Institute of Climatology, junior grade
meteorologist.

Now, why is a weatherman interested in
destroying wheat?

Beckett, we're trying to find a
connection between people who forecast

weather and viruses that kill crops.

Well, you check out this guy, Hawk.

I'm looking into an outfit called
Pesticore.

I represent a collective of Eastern
Alliance farmers. And you need help with

pest problem.

Dr. Zyger, you've come to the right
place.

Yes, we have a lot of catching up to do.

We've got nothing like this back home.
Well, I'm pleased to report that here at

Pesticor, we've been responsible for
developing pesticides that eliminate 96

of all known crop life.

It's quite a success story, Dr. Crowell.

Yes, it is.

My colleagues have dubbed me the
exterminator. Ah.

Um, well, I...

You've got something that can
exterminate this.

I don't recognize it. Where was it
found?

It destroyed a field of wheat.

In hours.

Is there any way to counteract it?

Not that I know of.

I strongly recommend that you incinerate
all of the infected wheat immediately.

Really? If you leave this with me, I'll
get a research team onto it right away.

We'll be in touch.

Dr. Crowell, just one more thing.

Please accept this gift as a token of my
people's esteem and thanks.

All our collective worth.

You've just been made an honorary
member.

You're very kind.

It should bring you good fortune.

You in, Beckett?

I managed to get the micro camera on
him.

Looks like I've managed to upset Dr.
Carroll.

What's this radio playing up?

There you go.

Just needed to get the bugs out.

No more insect jokes, please, Ross.

Hey, come on, Ed.

Don't get ants in your pants.

Thank you, guys.

Hey, Kroll's got something called ZH
-282 hidden away.

Does that mean anything to either of
you?

Must be the viroid.

All the samples maintaining optimum
potency?

Good.

Keep it that way.

Oh, Ros, I'm losing the picture.

Condensation. That camera's very
sensitive to humid conditions.

Gone.

A macro camera.

Short range.

It must still be in the building.

We have an intruder, Dr.

Zygo. I want him found.

Yeah, I got out okay.

Lucky for me, the guards here don't know
basic physics.

You don't mix electricity with water.

Can you check out Hawk? I'll see if I
can provide any secrets out of the

mainframe. Okay.

Were there any problems?

We have an agreement.

And the timing devices?

Lockwork.

Ross? Go ahead.

I'm in section K. I've just seen a hawk.

He's gone into room K -19, arguing with
some other guy.

Yeah, his name's Nathan Pym, head of
forecasting here.

Been on the staff for about 12 years,
and that's as much as a parking ticket.

And get this, Ed, his hobbies include
entomology and philately.

Oh, really?

Insects and stamps must be fun at
parties.

Ready to fly.

Come here.

I'm getting some kind of interference.

Try again. It's like a buzzing sound.

Really?

That's odd.

There isn't anything in that section
that should block your reception.

Maybe you need to get a bit closer.

Ed, there should be a ventilation shaft
around the corner.

Yeah, I've got it.

What now?

Now you crawl.

Look, all I'm saying is, using the
agronomy council's weak field for a

may have been a costly mistake, but I
found the most efficient way to test

thyroid.

Now I expect payment in full.

But it's not all there.

I never agree to an instalment plan.

Oh, you'll be receiving your bonus very
shortly.

The prevailing westerlies will reach the
necessary wind speed in less than 12

hours, and after that, well, we'll all
be very rich.

But I want a bigger share.

You really are a disappointment.

At least I've got some ambition.

You won't catch me spending years in
this place guessing what the weather's

going to do.

I'm sorry you should feel that way.

Hornet.

Genetically enhanced to have a fatal
sting.

Death.

It's almost instantaneous.

I'll take this.

Oh, by the way... I don't care.

I... Paul Carr.

Rob? How's it going?

Rob? Yeah, I hear you. I'm just
downloading Pim's database.

Looks like you made a friend in there.

Of course.

Someone's been careless.

Did they all get out?

We'll just have to replace them
immediately.

Another 24 hours and the wind will
change direction.

Looks like we've found ourselves some
pests.

What shall we do?

Exterminate them, of course.

It's a rare breed of beetle.

A monarch beetle.

It's really rather beautiful.

Not so pleasant when you're stuck in a
crowd of them.

Why would Pym want a swarm of monarch
beetles?

There's a way of spreading infection to
crops.

Plants cannot be infected directly by
viruses and viroids, only through an

insect acting as a vector.

These monarch beetles could act like
rats carrying the plague.

They're not infected themselves, but
they're carriers of the infection.

I mean, what's in it for Pym? He's a
meteorologist.

Is he involved with Kroll?

He said something about the prevailing
westerlies. Of course.

That's how they're going to spread the
insects.

Look, Kroll provides the viroid.

Pym predicts the wind pattern.

They spray the viroid onto the beetles,
then release the insect into the right

winds to carry them to the target area.

Right, which makes sense for this
weather data I got from Tim's computer.

That's a 24 -hour forecast.

Those winds are building exactly as they
would want.

And it looks like they'll get to maximum
strength around midnight tonight.

Which gives us less than six hours to
prevent a famine in Europe, the like of

which hasn't been seen for centuries.

OK, we'd better go over to Pestico and
destroy the viroid.

ZH -282 stuff.

What?

Yeah, you and Ed deal with the viride.
I'll handle the other end of their

scheme, the insects and ferns.

How are you going to do that?

By talking to their maker.

They carry a trademark.

It's been bred by a company called
Insect Tech.

Monarch beetles.

Almost as rare as dodos until we
genetically enhance their reproductive

Wonderful, aren't they?

If you like that kind of thing.

Do you actually breed them here, Dr
Lemon?

Yes, they're used in various research
projects here.

But we also supply to outside agencies.

Really? Like pesticide companies?

As a matter of fact, yes.

There you are.

100 ,000 of a little beauty for
Petticoat.

Second batch they've had this month.

Delivery tonight.

Very little.

Oh no.

What's the prognosis?

Let's just say she had a deadly
reaction.

Have your guests arrived?

Not yet, but they'll come.

You know what vermin are like. Leave
them the right bait.

And they can't resist.

Open it up, please.

You know where you're going?

R &D level four.

You're going to need some eye
protection.

Let's get you out of there.

Holy Toledo, it's like a fruit machine.

Yep.

And we just hit the jackpot.

Get a little lost on your way back to
the Eastern Alliance, Dr. Zygo.

I believe this is what you're looking
for.

Beautiful, isn't it?

And deadly.

That is the wheat -destroying virus, I
presume.

No, you presume wrongly.

ZH -282 is a pesticide.

Pesticide. Why should I say the
pesticide?

It's going to make me very rich.

So the virus carried by the beetles
starts your own silent plague.

Then when everyone panics at their crop
smell, they can't kill the viroid.

You arrive with your last -minute
miracle cure.

Which you just happen to have prepared
earlier.

Not only will you become incredibly
rich...

But you'll be the man that prevented
famine in Europe.

Congratulations, Doc.

I'm sure the world will be blinded by
your achievement.

They've changed the access code. Oh, you
never hit a jackpot twice, do you?

Do you have to cheat, then?

You'd better hurry up, mate, because
that flash grenade's not going to buy us

much time.

Yeah, two down. Two to go.

It's always a half -empty glass for you,
isn't it?

After them!

Incoming.

Come on, Ben. Yeah, you can make them do
it.

Come on!

Fuel the complex.

Airtight. And this time... Access
denied. No more mistakes.

Stop!

Why is it always high?

Open it

No

matter

It's too late for them to stop us now

That's the main security desk, body heat
from the two security guards.

And what does the yellow represent?

I don't know, it's weird. Looks like
some sort of radiation rather than heat.

Any sign of Ed?

No, the rest of the building looks
deserted.

Oh, except there.

On the roof, body heat.

I need to be sure the wind will carry
our friends in the right direction.

I thought meteorologists used computers
and satellites these days.

We do.

But when our future wealth hangs on the
wind being exactly right, I prefer

empirical evidence.

How long before that thing tells us we
can launch?

Not long.

Well, the lock's no problem, but the
alarm could take some time. Well, time's

one thing we haven't got, Ros. Vicki!

Ross Beckett.

Are you there?

Ed, where have you been?

Oh, you know, hanging around.

Look, we're at entrance four. We're
going to be with you in... Three

Three minutes.

Three minutes?

Having trouble with the alarm, are you?

Lucky for you, you've got a man on the
inside.

Now listen.

I'll give you five seconds.

Anything longer than that, people are
going to start getting suspicious.

Okay?

Go.

Okay, three targets.

Ed, you find the viroids.

We identified a strong source of energy
emissions around the 10th floor.

Roz, you go to the 4th floor.

Find the ZH282 antidote itself.

And when you get it, take it somewhere
safe.

Without the antidote, there's no profit
for them.

What about you, Beckett?

I'm going to the roof. Someone's got to
stop the beetles being released.

Beckett? I thought heights weren't
exactly your forte.

Yeah, they're not, but at least I'm not
scared of insects.

Guys, I found where the viroid is.

It's kept beyond some kind of
ultraviolet decontamination chamber.

That will be to stop the viroid getting
out before they're ready.

Yeah, and to prevent their own little
germs catching any other little germs.

Now I've found it, what do you want me
to do with it?

Disposal is not an option.

We must completely destroy it.

Hey.

I wonder if I can use the optimal at
quarantine itself to destroy the viroid.

The reading here is two.

I notice the scale goes up to 20.

Okay, now you need to hit the viroid
with a high -intensity burst. Rack the

scale up to maximum. That will kill it.

Are you ready yet?

Conditions are perfect.

If we set the timers at two hours, the
insects will be released at the right

height into the wind to ensure excellent
dissemination. Good.

You can go back down and get your viroid
from the decontamination area.

Okay, I'm testing it now.

I've got to stack them up under the UV
beams in the chamber.

What are you doing?

Destroying the Viroid.

A short burst at high intensity ought to
do it.

Well, Doc?

I'd say the treatment's worked.

Your viroid's dead.

Very clever.

But this one bottle is still enough to
do the job.

It might take longer, but the viroid
will multiply and spread.

I suggest you stay exactly where you
are.

At this setting,

You'll get a fatal tan before you're
halfway across.

Thanks for this.

It's the special low -temperature bulb.

We have an intruder, sir.

Where? In the low -temperature vault.
What on earth is going on?

Beckett, I'm just loading the last tubes
of the ZH -282.

We've got to get them to a safe place.

If the viroid ever escapes, those tubes
are the one thing that will save the

wheat crops.

Ross, they're going to release the
insects using weather balloons.

Beckett, can you let the insects out
before they get infected with the

Not without an octane cutter, no.

Maybe I can do something with a timer.

Any joy?

Well, I can't zero them.

I can only get them down in five
minutes.

Well, hopefully that will release the
insects before they can add the viroid.

If it's running... Look, don't shoot.
This stuff is very volatile.

Just step away.

No! Don't use the taser!

No!

Help me, ma 'am!

It's something priceless!

Right, finger. Hey, it's me.

Hey, listen, I managed to kill most of
the biroid.

Kroll got away. He's got something
that's still alive.

Ros?

Ros, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Pym's dead.

And all the antidote was destroyed too.

Kroll's got the last of the viroid.

We must get to the roof.

Stop him spraying the insects with it.

Only two minutes to the roof.

If you release the virus now, there's no
way you can profit from it. The miracle

cure has been destroyed.

We still have the formula. We can make
more.

Ten seconds to release.

Well, I guess you could say we just
stopped a serial killer.

You're a genius, Jean Daniel.

Advising me to invest in wheat futures?

Where do you get all your information?

I have my sources, Governor.

And I'm more than familiar with some of
the players involved.

It makes sense to bet on winners.

I think you'll find you can afford that
new gymnasium now.

And more.

The thing we used to have used to having
mailbags.

Yeah.

Of course, if I'd have been in a
position to have made some investments

I'd be calling my broker right now to
ensure I took the profits.

Hmm.

Yes.

I have to go.

There's some things I have to catch up
with.

This is good work.

Carry on.

I've been thinking.

A staff swimming pool would be awfully
good for employee morale.

We shall have to see what we can do.

Observe that man.

He's an example to everyone.

Extra privileges for Jean Daniel.
