Previously on NCIS Sydney.

We're thinking he's American.

Call sign ghost.

The guy was hunting me.

It's a kill list.

I need a name.

I hope you know what you're doing.

Let me guess, Maui?

Malibu, isn't it?

God, you yanks are so predictable.

I'm not thinking of Malibu, okay? Okay,
Dr. Grumpy. You don't want to play polar

night fantasy. I get it.

I get I asked.

I'm sorry, Jen. I just... I don't feel
great.

I think that vitamin D shot's repeating
on me. Right, and I'm sure it's got

nothing to do with the prospect of six
months of unending darkness.

As a polar night virgin, can we...

Stop with the whole unending darkness
thing.

Oh, you'll be fine, Pavel. You just need
a good sense of humour and something to

transport you out of this frozen
hellhole.

You can borrow them when I'm done.

The Sonneville Chronicles.

Love that series.

How's the twist?

You think he's the hero. Turns out he's
the killer all along.

He's cloned himself, but you don't work
it out till the final book.

Are you serious?

These were supposed to last six... Whole
month.

Bugger.

My bad.

Such a dick.

I guess you can only fly down there for
a limited window each year. How often do

you reach to find the base?

Uh, three, maybe four times over summer.

Food and meds mainly.

There's always something broke.

Especially mining equipment.

Really? I thought there was a moratorium
on mining in Antarctica.

Commercial mining, yeah. These guys are
international climate scientists.

Same tools, different rules.

Gotta say, I'm surprised we're heading
down so late in the season.

Don't usually risk it this close to
Polar 9, but not unless someone's dead

dying.

A U .S. Navy climatologist attacked and
killed one of her colleagues.

They subdued her, sent out a mayday.

There's no one closer to respond?

No one whose job it is to prosecute U
.S. Navy crimes.

Dr. Cohen's one of us, I'm afraid.

Fair enough.

and leave him in there too long, pal.

The antibacterial bath will strip paint,
believe me.

Oh, yeah, I'm just waiting for an
important message.

He'll probably be asleep the whole time.

It's nothing, Ricky.

Some breeds are trickier than others.

But he's pretty low maintenance, as far
as Jack Russell's are concerned.

Uh -huh.

Listen, he takes his breakfast at eight
during the week, a little bit later on

the weekend.

Uh -huh, sure, sure.

And he loves to have a tummy rub,
obviously.

Obviously.

Yeah, but not too long because it's a
bit jazzy.

And he's house -trained, so he'll hold
on for as long as he needs to.

A little help?

More of a cab person, to be honest.

Say again, 4 -Point. This is Whiskey
November Niner.

Radio check, 4 -Point.

Do you copy?

Still nothing?

Bar for the course down here the
satellite indirectly overhead That ain't

helping Seriously

I didn't pick you as a horror movie
buff.

I'm not.

I hate them.

Everything

okay?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, it's nothing.

Did I mention I had met someone online?

No. Uh, you did not, as it turns out.
Yeah, um, it's not a big deal. It's, you

know, super casual again and off again.
You know how it is.

Yeah.

Anyway, it's our, uh, anniversary.

One month since I poked her.

On the dating app.

Oh, right.

Yeah, I wasn't aware that was still a
thing.

So I booked a table at Mimi's tonight
for our anniversary, but obviously I had

to cancel last minute. Oh, I'm sure
she'll understand.

No, it's not that. It's just...

I texted from the airport to see how I
could make it up to her, and this is

she wrote back.

What do you mean, that?

If you need me to explain that, you
probably shouldn't be dating.

That's what I thought.

This is your captain speaking.

We're about to make our descent into
Pole Point Base.

Return your seat to the upright position
and stow anything you don't want

hitting you in the kisser at speed.

On the clock, okay?

Collect the body, take Dr. Cohen into
custody, in and out. No arguments from

Take the two -way.

You're not coming in? No, I'm going to
get some shut -eye.

Besides, who's going to stay here and
keep the engines running otherwise?

You don't power down?

It's already 20 below.

I power down, by the time you get back,
all my fluid lines will be frozen solid.

Which means, y 'all ain't back here at
40, y 'all ain't going back.

Oh, it is colder than a witch's
proverbial out there.

Did I mention I hate the cold?

Take this over Darwin any day.

NCIS?

Anyone here?

Didn't expect ticket tape, but is a
simple g'day too much to ask?

Mr. Spiegelman.

No.

Nor is she.

Faith Manifest puts the total number of
residents at 10. Yeah, I've got seven of

them here and none appear to be Navy
doctor.

They can't have gone far.

Split up, let's go find them.

Me and J .D. will stay here, help Rosie
log the scene.

D, Evie, get a play -by -play of what
went down.

Copy that.

And see if you can find Dr. Cohen.

So let's step this through.

Doc Cohen kicks things off when she
caves Spiegelman's skull in from behind.

The rest of the team overpower her, take
her somewhere, lock her up.

Threats identified.

So how do you explain all this?

Go for scooter.

What's maximum takeoff weight?

I have to do the math based on the fuel
load. How come?

Because we're bringing back more bodies
than we planned for.

As in, all of them. Damn.

Not sure we got enough seats.

I don't need seats, just floor space.

I'm also going to need more time.

Okay. How much are you talking?

I got a mass casualty crime scene to
process, so two, maybe three hours if we

hurry. Oh, in which case, take your
time.

By then, all the plane's lubricants will
be frozen solid. We'll be stuck down

here for the next six months.

I am not staying here for six months,
amigo. Think again.

All right.

I guess I could drain the oil, move
inside the base, stop it from freezing.

it'll mean shutting down the engine.

Is that a problem?

Just can't guarantee it'll start up
again is all.

What are you waiting for?

You're the boss, boss.

Someone wanted to lock someone else
inside.

Or something.

Hello, play -by -play.

Guess this is for live feed.

Oh, gun safe.

Yes, please.

Evie, you already got a gun.

You can never have too many guns.

Why do they need a gun if they want to
research base anyway?

Oh, I don't know.

In case the crew go bananas and it turns
into alien in the Antarctic.

Missing shotgun.

That's not good.

Safe.

CCTV password protected.

I can't access the archive.

Day Guess we found our Navy
climatologist No

signs of trauma Wrists are bruised and
abraded She was actually struggling

against some restraints Which means she
was still conscious when she was cuffed

They've

got Blunt force trauma to the skull,
multiple stab wounds, ligature marks,

consistent strangulation.

Too many competing MOs. You thinking
multiple aggressors?

That's what it looks like.

A wild psychotic orgy. I'm not sure what
the emoji is for that, Jim.

Tell Doc about my cryptic text?

Personally, it's not that cryptic. And
secondly, I only told Dee, who told

Who told Doc? Who told Scooter? I didn't
want him feeling left out. Oh, you're

all hot. Cheers, Doc.

So, uh, Doc figures multiple aggressors.

Well, like an all -in brawl that turned
deadly.

I mean, I've heard of polar madness, but
are we really buying that? Nope. Which

is why I'm getting Blue to run blood
panels.

Assuming we can get the satellite to
play ball.

Why blood panels?

Because I need a logical explanation.

Like what?

Okay, what if...

All the victims have been exposed to
some kind of pathogen. Seriously?

What kind of pathogen turns people
homicidal?

Toxoplasma, maybe?

Meth can bring on uncontrollable anger
coupled with exaggerated strength.

So the entire base was on ice? Well, it
is Antarctica.

I'm just saying.

Our missing doctor, as requested.

One down, two to go.

We're still missing Jen Flannery and
base geologist Pavel Dubovsky.

How'd you go with the CCTV?

Password protected.

No date.

Maybe they just both up and left.

Yeah, we should check the snowmobiles.

Come on, mate.

Let's start over.

Tell us what happened, and we can talk
about removing those cuffs.

The mood on base was pretty bleak.

Polar night.

It puts everyone on edge.

Spiegelman, he was being annoying.

And Dr. Cohen.

It all happened so fast.

Did she have anything against
Spiegelman? No, no more than the rest of

We've all been working together for
months, some of them even longer.

We all get on each other's nerves at
some point. What happened after Dr.

attacked Spiegelman? We restrained her.

It was hard.

She was frothing at the mouth.

I called my girlfriend back in Minsk,
and while I was on the phone, Peter went

berserk. Then the rest of them started
tearing each other apart.

What did you do?

I shouldn't try to help them.

I mean, they were my friends.

But I was just so terrified.

So you hid?

I didn't know what else to do.

It's like they were possessed.

Like it was contagious.

So what do we think? I think he's scared
out of his wits. Maybe.

But with any mass homicide event, last
man standing with an ice pick generally

has some explaining to do. But it's not
the last man standing, remember?

We have to do one short.

Yeah.

Head back out.

See if you can smoke out our final girl.
What are you going to do?

Me and Pavel are going to find out what
really happened.

Deja vu all over again.

It feels like we're in the sequel.

Door.

Hello?

Federal agents.

Anyone here?

Looks like water.

Where from?

Core samples, maybe?

And leave them unrefrigerated.

The ice melts.

You think all this happened before or
after things went postal?

No idea.

I guess this must be where they store
the frozen core samples.

Did I mention I hate the cold?

Can these come off now?

Not if you're the killer.

Pascoe? 4892.

Height of the Vincent Massif. High speak
in Antarctica.

Bring me any more lamps you can find.

You really think this will speed up the
thawing process?

Well, I'm open to suggestions.

How about we just leave her on her own
until we get back to Sydney? Oh, I wish,

but I have to take her bloods before
she's allowed back on that plane. Huddle

up.

I just got this off the CCTV.

Damn.

He's a man for himself.

What the hell happened to these people?

Whatever it is, Harville's story checks
out.

There he is on the phone.

Just like you said.

Makes him our only eyewitness.

Sorry about that.

You mind explaining what exactly you
guys are working on down here?

It's an international long -term climate
study funded by the U .S. Navy.

We've been measuring nitrogen levels
beneath the ice.

And you're a geologist?

It's my job to locate the rock deposits
that are close enough to the ice cap and

extract them.

Core samples.

Very valuable.

I'm afraid some of them were trashed in
the frenzy.

We found a bunch that melted on the
floor.

Actually, that happened before the
incident.

Diane was running carbon dating tests
when one of them slipped its rig and

shattered. Why wasn't it cleaned up?

You need to be straight up with us,
Pavel, or we can't help you.

Core samples have to be handled with
extreme care.

Why's that?

I would have thought the rock would have
been pretty robust, no?

It's not the rock that's the issue.

It's any biological matter that's
preserved within it. And was there

like that within the core sample that
broke?

There were several significant veins of
biomass.

It was concerning.

Why'd you not flag it?

It was Diane's project. She wasn't
worried.

What might have been trapped in the ice?
Worst case scenario?

Bacteria. Some long -dormant virus.

Something that kills.

Or makes us kill.

Just breathe.

Oh, it's got it!

Easy. No sudden movements.

What have you been feeding him?

Just everything on Doc's list.

What? All of it? Yes, of course all of
it. Why?

I've been feeding him from Doc's list
too.

What? Why have you been feeding him? I
thought you were a cat person.

No, I was just winding you up. I love
dogs, especially Buster.

Couldn't stand seeing him get hungry.
No, no chance of that.

Greetings and salutations. On the

clock, guys.

We've got a sketchy selfie that won't
last.

You get everything we send through?

Copy that.

And I've analysed the blood panels. And?
And it's weird.

They all have traces of an unknown viral
infection.

Each victim had the same infection?

Affirmative. Um, what do you mean
unknown?

I mean that it's not on any database
that I have access to.

Which means what?

Which means it's likely synthetic.

The closest that I can liken it to is
the sort of encephalitis that comes from

rabies. But this is way more potent from
what I can tell.

What do you know about zombie viruses?

Just the basics.

Ancient viruses trapped in ice or
permafrost that remain infectious, even

being frozen for thousands of years.

So it's a real thing?

If you consider catastrophic future
pandemics a real thing.

Problems why Antarctica has such... OK.

So let's say these core samples contain
a virus.

trapped in the ice when that ice melts
it is released into the air in which

we've been breathing it in this whole
time hands up who thinks now's a good

to get out of here not until we're
certain we're not infected we can't risk

taking it back with us what if the sun
sets before that but we're stuck here

six months if we don't kill each other
first

I'll send this to Sydney and see what's
going on.

All right, pop that on, big fella.

Thank you, Doctor.

Go on, J .D. Go on.

Assume the position.

Here.

Sit still, will you?

How long till we get the results back?
It'll take a lot longer if you won't

bloody moving. I'm just asking. Both of
you, wear the half -hour mask before the

sunset.

Are we getting results before then or
not, Doc?

I'll do my best.

Are you sure we shouldn't be wearing
PPE, just in case?

Well, you do you.

But we've been huffing it in since we've
been here.

If it is airborne, we've already got it.

And I don't intend to spend my remaining
hours on the wrong side of an N95 mask.

It fogs up my specs.

Just on that.

The whole super rabies thing Blue
mentioned.

It's a crazy guess, right?

That's right, dear.

Cool.

What are the symptoms of rabies again?

Starts with the temperature.

Then a tickle in the back of your
throat. Don't even start.

Then heightened irritability.

Paranoia.

Then a murderous aggression that
ultimately kills the host.

There's no cure.

Whoa,

whoa, whoa. What's that?

Relax. What a cold, okay?

Is this how it starts?

I haven't got rabies.

What are the actual symptoms of rabies,
Doc?

Well, you're pretty bang on, actually.
What?

Okay, Mark.

No more coughing.

Zero coughing from this point on from
anyone in this room. Okay, Mark.

Enough!

Paranoia plus deadly weapons equals body
bags.

Everyone, guns now.

Throw it on safety, okay?

Everyone presses one digit.

That way, no one gets the pull code.

They're off, Dick.

Good. Safe and sound.

Knock it off.

It's not me.

Do we get our guns back yet?

This is literally the plot from The
Thing From Another World.

Thor'd alien wakes up super pissed.

How's it end?

How do you think?

Everyone dies.

What the hell are you doing?

You hear that, Doc?

It's only trapped gas trying to escape
the corpse, it is.

Completely normal.

Coming after me, they were like animals.

I had nowhere to hide, so I got into the
cryo -fridge.

And then your body temperature dropped
rapidly and you became chronically

hypothermic. Is that a nice way of
saying I froze to death?

No. No, you just got very, very cold.

And now you're not.

Doc, don't tell me the zombie virus is
actually a zombie virus.

Unlikely, but being almost frozen looks
to have saved her.

Am I sure she's not going to, you know,
rip our throats out?

No, of course not.

Great.

I wouldn't have thought so.

It is totally possible.

First Pavel, now Jen.

Two out of ten scientists unaffected by
an airborne virus inside a closed base.

What's that tell you?

That maybe it isn't airborne.

Maybe.

And in which case, how did the virus
jump from a smashed ice core to the

of eight scientists?

Maybe it had help.

Outside help.

What are you doing inside?

I had to bring in the oil.

Thought I'd make myself a brew while I'm
here.

I was just filling him in on everything
that's happening. It's horrible.

You can hardly believe it. You really
shouldn't be in here. It's not safe.

it's 50 below out there.

I'll take my chances. You'll take your
coffee and get your butt back on the

plane.

You're our ticket out of here.

Sure.

No problemo.

Take Pavel.

Find the delivery manifests.

I want to know everything that's come
onto this base in the last month.

Here it is.

Last delivery manifest.

I'm sure there are more here somewhere.

Long life milk, reconstituted mashed
potato, condoms, vitamin D.

Helps survive months without sunlight.

I thought that's what the condoms are
for.

I can check the supply cupboards, if you
like, see if I can find records that go

further back. Good idea.

Talk us through what happened on the
lead -up to all this.

Lead -up to Poland night's pretty busy.
Last -minute weatherproofing, vehicle

check, vitamin D injections, that sort
of thing.

Vitamin D?

We give everyone a boost before the six
months of dark.

And am I right in saying you were the
one who raised the meeting?

Yeah, I sent the emergency email minutes
after it happened.

Why not call it in?

If the satellite's not directly
overhead, phones just don't work. It was

or nothing.

Solar flares regularly shut down our
comms for hours.

We're finding that out.

So you had no phone coverage at all?

None at all.

Total blackout.

Give us a moment.

Total blackout.

So how was Pavel on the phone to his
girlfriend?

Blood results are in.

We good?

We are.

She's not.

Jen tested positive for the virus?

Why isn't she presenting symptoms?

Well, freezing may have temporarily
slowed the infection.

For how long?

Well, given she was frozen right when
the others began to exhibit symptoms,

say...

I think we got something.

Look, this is the most recent delivery
manifest.

Check out the vitamin D order.

And this was what was delivered.

Found the empty packets inside the bin.

Not what was ordered.

Different brand, different supplier.

Jen said the boosters were part of their
prep for Paul and I.

Perfect time to slip a rogue virus past
the biosecurity protocols and infect the

entire base.

I guess the person who smuggled them in
didn't get a shot.

Oh, you suck.

What the hell?

The heart rate is spiking.

The temperature's skyrocketing.

She's turning.

Apple imports contaminated vials of
vitamin D to infect the entire crew.

What on this base is worth killing nine
people for? Get us out of this room and

I'll be happy to workshop that with you.

So, Doc, is now a good time to ask about
our test results? They're all clear.

Oh, that's a small victory.

Lifeline? Find a friend.

What's that?

Talk to me.

Okay, call it. Code red. Code red. Bus
is exploding.

It's just a hairball, Blue.

This is Trigger.

It's JD. We're in an airfield lab
security level four. We need a fast

Level four?

Mate, those doors have hermetic bio
seals.

They're like triple redundant mag locks
built to contain everything.

Now they open from the outside.

Well, we're inside, mate. Now would be a
good time for some out -of -the -box

thinking.

Perch protocol.

In order for a level four bio lab to
unlock, the system needs to think that

safe from any airborne foreign agent.

How's it do that? By initiating
incineration search protocols.

In order to activate that, the lab needs
to detect a bio threat. Basically trick

the sensors into believing the virus is
airborne.

Then flame jets will ignite every
molecule in the room, including oxygen,

then the doors will unlock.

So burn ourselves alive, that's your
solution?

Well, we didn't say it was a perfect
one.

I mean, we're dead anyway.

Over here.

Not ready when you are.

That's a bit underwhelming.

Incineration purge complete.

I'll sedate Jen and get her to the
plane.

What about Paul?

I thought we'd leave him. Come back in
the summer. Yeah, I'm with Evie with

one. Nah, we need answers.

We need guns.

You kidding?

Evie, it's one number.

Okay, well, this isn't helping.

TV code now.

How do you like them rock?

I don't know about you, but I'd take a
week in Darwin. Right about now.

Mango, madness beats polar madness any
day of the week.

Worth risking your life for?

Worth taking lives for, anyway. That
much I know.

What is it?

CY66.

Fusbrosium. A rare earth element.

Atomic number 66 on the periodic table.

Used in high -grade magnets, motors,
guidance systems, anything military

And it is worth a fortune.

You think this whole thing is about
mining?

Mm -hmm.

How's it possible mining is illegal in
Antarctica?

Which is why Pavel had to clear out the
entire base with a deadly virus first.

He takes control of the site, then waits
for reinforcements to strip mine the

place. Yep.

All under the cover of six months of
darkness.

It's kind of genius, really.

So who are the reinforcements?

Pavel's from Belarus.

I could take an educated guess.

We'll get him to talk.

And whoever they are, they're not
getting their hands on any of this

soon.

I don't feel so good.

A coffee.

Papa must have spiked it.

Just like a tractor, but, you know, a
plane.

I still got it.

That eggplant emoji girl? Can we not
call her that?

She is going to be pissed you didn't
follow through.

Wait.

You didn't follow through, did you?

In the cold?

Just realize what this looks like. I was
trying to ask if you like masaka, my

specialty. See, she was actually talking
about eggplant.

Sure she was.

Wait, what?

Special Agent Mackie, you're a hard
woman to catch.

That's by design.

What do you got?

I chased up the kill list you found on
the ghost's phone.

And you're not going to like what I
found.

Why is that?

Because I worked out who put you on it.

We did.
