All language subtitles for Eleventh Hour - 1x06 - Frozen.HDTV.xor.en

Whoa.

I take it you're the
ice man from the FBI.

Ice man?

Hmm.

That's a little harsh.

Actually, I'm the
science man from the FBI.

I'm Special Agent Rachel Young.

I'm assigned to Dr. Hood.

Well, I'm Detective Cordero, LAPD.

This is Dr. Nash from
the coroner's office.

Hi.

Dr. Nash. How are you doing?

This was our case

till the feds showed up,

told us to wait for you.

Why is the FBI so interested?

Uh, you should, uh, put on a mask.

No.

- I don't think so.
- Funny, I wouldn't

have pegged you as the
"live dangerously" type.

There's nothing dangerous about it.

An airborne pathogen couldn't

have frozen her like this.

- Why not?
- It's thermodynamically impossible.

Uh, airborne molecules...

they're too small.

They don't have anything close

to the heat capacity

to cause this kind of
damage to a human being.

Well, then, what did?

I mean, there are no wounds,

no puncture marks on
the body,no bruising,

lesions, injection marks.

No indication of physical
trauma whatsoever.

Who was she, Detective?

Marlena Gower.

Marketing student at Malibu State.

She spent most of last night

at a house about 100 yards from here.

Left near dawn.

Was a big party.

A few noise complaints
from the neighbors,

but no reports of screams
or signs of a struggle.

39 degrees Fahrenheit.

Seven degrees above freezing.

Her body shows no signs
of sub-thermal exposure.

And it appears like she's
not warming up, either.

Detective, can you tell me

how a seemingly
healthy college student

in the prime of life
freezes to death on the beach

on one of the hottest
days of the year?

No.

Doctor?

No.

Neither can I.

Which is why the FBI is interested.

Anything unusual on Marlena's body,

maybe in her purse?

We found a near-empty
bottle of champagne...

pricey stuff...

a bottle of prescription
tranquilizers

and some odd text
messages on her cell.

Odd in what way? Well, they

were pretty cryptic, asking her

if she had reconsidered something.

Have you traced them?

To a prepaid cell.

We're trying to track
it down right now.

She wrote back some
pretty nasty responses,

so whatever it was
about, she didn't like it.

And you checked her cell record?

There were three other

"Have you reconsidered?"
text messages.

First one came in five days ago.

Could be connected to the death.

I asked Dr. Nash to
run a metabolic panel,

also to check the stomach contents,

see if there was anything unusual

in that champagne she had.

Please call us with the results.

Will do.

Thank you.

Also, we should check out

the house she visited last night,

see if there's anything there
to give us a clue as to how

she ended up like this.

Or why.

Yeah,she was here.

Too bad... she was a real hottie.

Came with a bunch of
coeds from Malibu State.

Real party girls, if
you know what I mean.

And I'm sure they were
all over 18, right?

All my parties are legal.

Hey.

Hey!

What are you doing, man?

Just checking out your AC unit here.

Yeah, well, it's up to
code and state of the art.

You use it very often?

Now and then... doesn't get

over 90 in Malibu that often.

It did yesterday.

Yeah, well, I had it on for
a few hours in the afternoon.

Turned it off as soon
as the sun went down.

Okay, thank you very much.

Someone slipped our
victim a Freon Mickey?

They don't use Freon in
air conditioners anymore.

Damages the ozone layer.

Any sign of tampering on the unit?

No.

So we can rule out
death by air conditioner.

She was taking

prescription medication.

Maybe we should go
talk to her doctor.

She was taking

benzodiazepine for anxiety.

Understandable, of course.

Why, was she having trouble
at school or with a boyfriend?

She had bigger problems.

- I assumed you knew.
- Knew what?

She was diagnosed last month
with severe aplastic anemia.

Unfortunately, we couldn't find it

in time to begin effective treatment.

She was terminal?

I'm afraid so.

Could the illness have contributed

to her freezing to death?

It's a very rare

blood disease with a
lot of horrible symptoms,

but fatal hypothermia
isn't one of them.

It's amazing.

You can actually see
the heart beating.

And now we know what
color to paint the nursery.

I've always loved the color blue.

We'll name him after you.

I just wish I could give
him more than a name.

Maybe you can.

Honey, I made that appointment
for us at the Foundation.

I think you should
at least consider it.

We still have some
time left before...

It's, uh, been over 24 hours

and the extremities are
finally starting to thaw.

Her body is just a,uh,few
degrees below ambient.

Autolysis has begun.

The body has started
to digest itself.

It's always such a...

brutally efficient process to watch.

Yeah.

Life is a miracle, but, uh,

death, in its own terrible way,

is no less beautiful.

She was only 21.

Oh.

Well,her death is
tragic, no question,

but, uh...

I did this autopsy
on a guy last month

who had been hooked up
to a heart-lung machine

for, uh, 12 years because his family

just couldn't accept the
fact that he was brain-dead.

The way our culture tries

to deny death, uh, hide from it...

I just think that's tragic, too.

You got a tissue sample?

Yeah,I got a liver section

right over here.

Thank you.

No frostbite.

But that's impossible.

I mean, she was frozen, wasn't she?

Well, that's

the interesting thing.

She was frozen, but...

but not with ice crystals.

Were there any chemical compounds

in the blood work
you couldn't identify?

Well, the tox panel was clean.

There were a few lines in, uh,

the spectral analysis
that I didn't recognize,

but of course, that in
itself isn't unusual.

Well,I'm gonna need at
least 100cc's of her blood,

tissue samples from her major organs,

and a real lab.

Rachel, can you find me one?

Oh, yeah, not bad.

Not bad at all.

Can I help you?

Yeah, I'd like to borrow
your facility, please.

I beg your pardon?

Uh, Dr. Hood and I
are here to discover

exactly what killed Marlena Gower,

a 21-year-old student from
your school, and to ascertain

whether or not it poses a
risk to national security.

Now, I can't legally
compel your cooperation

or the use of your
lab, so I'm asking you

to compel yourself

to do the right thing.

I have good days

and bad days.

I'm set to start chemo
treatments next week.

I'm doing everything
that the doctors tell me.

I'm glad to hear you're
following their advice.

We at the Forever
Forward Foundation want

to see you live a long
and productive life.

Look, I know that
time isn't on my side,

but I don't intend to go out
a moment before I have to.

We just found out it's gonna

be a boy.

I may not be around when he's born...

...but maybe, with your help,

when he's grown up,

I could be back and
spend some time with him,

Talk to him.

That would certainly
be our hope as well.

But...

I have an ethical obligation

to be crystal-clear on
this point with both of you.

We can't make any guarantees.

It could be decades

before a cure is found
for your illness,Edward,

even longer before the technology

is available to successfully

revive you.

Maybe you'll be able to meet our son

and our grandson.

Now, I'm using

a fluorite substrate
instead of glass.

Why?

Glass blocks infrared.

Very good.

And we need infrared data

to get a complete organic profile.

And fluorite is
transparent to infrared.

You care to assist?

Sure.

Run this sample, please.

- Mm-hmm.
-Thank you.

Is that an ice pack?

Did you hurt yourself?
You got a spare one

of those I could borrow
for a second,please?

Mmm. Sure. Here you go.

Thank you.

This is an example of
an endothermic reaction.

Squeeze it;

water mixes with
the ammonium nitrite;

it gets colder than ice.

Exactly.

I have a lot of
experience with ice packs.

See, most reactions,

they release heat.

An endothermic reactions
does the opposite.

It absorbs it.

Thanks, Dr. Hood.

Bye now.

See you around.

So, you think Marlena Gower

was dosed with ammonium nitrite?

No, because it would've
left behind ice crystals.

But it's something similar.

It's a pair of compounds

that absorb heat when they react.

Just got to work out which compounds.

So, who would have a reason
to create something like this?

Well, sometimes
people need to ship,um,

transplant organs from
one state to another.

Refrigeration's a way of keeping
them viable, but if ice crystals

form inside the cells, it
can cause a lot of damage.

If you could find a
way of preserving organs

without freezing them, you
could save a lot of lives.

Or take them.

Or take them.

Where's Mr. Science?

He's at the lab.

You two,um,strictly business,right?

- Of course. Why?
- Oh, just checking.

Tell you the truth,

I wouldn't mind brushing
up on my biology with him.

Janitor found him
about a half hour ago.

Name's John Robbins.

Big-time entertainment lawyer.

Coroner's on the way.

Unnaturally low body temperature.

No apparent signs of trauma.

Same text message.

Little less

cold and stiff than the other victim.

But just as dead.

We'll take excellent care of you,

Mr. Grekowski,

when the time comes.

My wife convinced me.

If there's even a
one-in-a-million chance

I could see my son
someday, I'm gonna take it.

I'll, uh,

I'll bring you the check tonight.

I think you've made
the right decision

for yourself, and for your family.

Thank you.

The trunk is still somewhat rigid,

but the rest of him is...

nearly back to room temperature.

And still no puncture wounds.

It took Marlena Gower
close to a day to thaw out.

This man's been dead for
less than eight hours.

If this is due to
a chemical reaction,

the hormonal differences

between men and women
could affect its rate.

He's also older than
the previous victim.

He was getting the same
text messages she was,

asking if he'd "reconsidered,"
but with no indication

- of what he was supposed to reconsider.
- The text message

on the second victim's
phone gave us probable cause

to geo-locate the caller's location,

but so far nothing.

Whoever made those calls
knows their telecom tradecraft.

What does that mean?

It means they
compartmentalized the device.

Never use it for
anything but those calls.

And probably remove
the SIM card and battery

when they're done sending the text.

These spectrographs from
our victim's blood samples

represent half a dozen
different compounds.

We've got to identify

the one that caused
her to freeze to death.

So, we have to work backwards, right?

Figure out the set of
all possible reactions

that could make them.

Yeah, but there's literally hundreds

of possibilities.

Just got the final autopsy report

for our latest victim John Robbins.

He was terminal, too.

Hemochromatosis.

That's a fatally high
level of iron in the blood.

The answer is here.

I just...

I just can't see it.

You'll figure it out, sir.

You're brilliant.

Thanks for the vote of confidence,

Janet, but I keep telling you...

please stop calling me "sir."

It's Jacob.

Okay, well, we know
what the reaction makes,

but we don't know what
makes the reaction.

Maybe I'm thinking
of this the wrong way.

I'm assuming that...

...these two or three
different compounds

were going together
to make the reaction.

That's how chemistry usually happens.

Yeah.

But what if...

the fragments we've identified

are all

part of the same molecule?

But how would that work?

What would it react with?

With itself.

It's like the Ouroboros
from the Egyptian methodology

the snake that swallows its own tail.

Eventually, it consumes itself.

But if this is a
self-reacting molecule,

there would still have to
be some kind of catalyst

to get the reaction started.

Potassium?

It's a catalyst in lots
of organic reactions

and there's plenty of it in
human cells in mineral form.

There's only one way to be sure.

We have to synthesize the molecule.

Rachel, you hungry?

Not particularly.

I need a hamburger.

Okay.

I'll see what I can
find at the cafeteria.

How do you want it?

Raw.

One raw hamburger.

So that's our killer, huh?

Well, if we're lucky,

and my organic chemistry
isn't too rusty.

Here's a perfectly raw hamburger.

Now watch.

This'll just take a... a few moments

for the potassium in the meat

to trigger the process.

Do you want me to go back to
the cafeteria for some fries?

Where's your team spirit?

Have a some patience, please.

It's 39 degrees.

Same temperature as the first victim.

Frozen solid.

But what about John Robbins?

If the same compound killed
him, why didn't he end up frozen?

His terminal hemochromatosis...
too much iron in the blood.

Iron reverses the process.

Janet, could you get the
iron sulfate for me, please?

Watch this.

You see, Robbins had just
enough iron in his blood

to prevent the process
from completing.

But not enough to keep him alive.

Unfortunately for him, no.

And now we're back
to normal temperature.

Okay, you said the
chemical would be developed

to preserve organs
for transplant, right?

Absolutely. To that market,

it's gonna be worth
its weight in gold.

So, it would definitely
be worth patenting.

Janet, there's no
Internet on this computer.

Is there a T3 connection
anywhere in the building?

Our professor's computer.

Or if you'd like

a little privacy, I have
WiFi in my dorm room.

No. Your professor's
computer will be fine.

Application No.8293024

An endothermic chemical process

for the purpose of
tissue preservation.

It's the same as the
molecule we just synthesized.

The patent was filed by...

Adastra Pharmaceuticals.

Biomedical firm in El Segundo.

Now we know where the
murder weapon came from.

Agent Young, Dr. Hood,
I hope this is important.

You pulled me out of
a stockholders meeting.

I need to get back
as soon as possible.

Oh, I'm very sorry, Dr. Ramesh.

Were you telling your stockholders

about Trimethyl-cryazine?

Cryazine is still in development,

not nearly ready to
bring to the public.

What's your interest in it?

My interest is, I, uh,
synthesized it in a lab.

And we believe it's being
used to murder people.

I have no idea what
you're talking about.

Cryazine is manufactured
to preserve organs.

At this stage, the
FDA has only approved

of limited clinical trials
on kidneys and livers.

Who's conducting
your clinical trials?

I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to say.

You know, two people
have already died

because of your research.

I hardly believe

anyone associated

with this company is responsible.

Anyone familiar with the
chemical is a possible suspect,

including you, Doctor.

If Cryazine

is successful, it could
save thousands of lives.

An investigation could
compromise our research,

scare off our investors.

Well, we wouldn't want
anyone getting cold feet.

We're simply asking

for your cooperation.

Tell us who your partner is

on the clinical side,and
we'll be discreet.

And

I'm sure your stockholders

will be relieved when you
go back to your meeting

and tell them you avoided
a federal subpoena.

The Forever Forward Foundation.

Here at the Forever
Forward Foundation,

the idea of immortality

is no longer a fantasy.

Dr. Gregory, there's
someone to see you...

from the FBI.

At 320 degrees below zero,

liquid nitrogen can
preserve them indefinitely.

A doctor is always present
to certify time of death.

It's best that our clients
spend their last moments here,

so we can begin the process
as quickly as possible.

So how many floating
heads do you have here?

We prefer the term
de-animated neural suspension.

Each cylinder contains four clients.

There are ten cylinders in
this storage unit and five

more units just like this one.

You do the math.

You promise these people that someday

when there is a cure for cancer
or whatever else killed them,

you'll just thaw them out?

It was good enough for Walt Disney.

And then what?

You put their heads on wheels?

In the future,

it will be possible

to clone yourself a
young and healthy body.

Why bother preserving the old one?

Plus,it's cheaper to just
freeze the heads, right?

Do you know a Marlena Gower,

or a John Robbins?

They have contracts with us.

What do those contracts run, exactly?

$80,000.

Our service isn't cheap.

But they both have money.

Robbins is a successful lawyer,

and I believe, Ms.
Gower has a trust fund.

Do you know they're dead?

When? How?

A couple of days ago.

Well, they have to be
brought here immediately.

The longer we wait,

the lower their chances
are for reanimation.

Are you aware of a substance
called Trimethyl-cryazine?

How do you know about it?

It killed them both.
Do you use it here?

For clinical trials only.

We encourage our neural
suspension clients

to donate all of their
harvestable organs for research.

If Cryazine proves effective,

it could be a huge step forward.

See, our biggest challenge
is preventing cellular damage

caused by freezing brain tissue.

Do you have the
chemical on the premises?

Oh, yes.

There are only...

nine bottles.

There should be,

uh... 15.

Who else has access to this cabinet?

Our lead researcher, uh,

two technicians,

uh, security guards.

We'll need all their names so
we can run a background check.

I'll also need to see
a list of your clients.

Just the ones who aren't dead. Yet.

So, you do have a contract

with the Forever
Forward Foundation for...

de-animated neural suspension?

Actually, I'm calling to see

if you've received a
threat of any kind recently,

possibly a text message

from an unknown sender
asking you to reconsider?

Okay.

Well, if you do
receive such a message,

please contact us immediately.

Thank you.

Still waiting

to hear back from
a couple of clients,

but no one else got an unusual text.

Not yet.

Rachel Young here.

Something came up on
one of the employees

at the frozen head shop.

Security guard named Joey Lux.

He used to be a cop.

Retired?

He was forced to resign.

One too many police
brutality complaints

and a corruption
charge to go with it.

Sounds like a real
upstanding citizen.

I have a search warrant, and I'm

texting you his address.
I'll see you there.

Okay.

That was Cordero
with a possible lead.

We could use one.

By the way, she likes you.

What?

Police! Open up!

Police! Open up!

Don't move! LAPD!

What the hell?!

We have a few questions
to ask you, Mr. Lux.

You worked security at the Foundation

when they started testing a
new tissue-preserving chemical.

So?

So, several bottles of
the chemical are missing.

Stolen.

And two people are
dead because of it.

- Who's next, Joey?
- I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

We're talking about
the fact that you're one

of the few people who had
access to the chemical.

And a couple of your
coworkers saw you

snooping around the room
where the chemical is kept

after your shift had ended.

And you think that makes me a killer?

Well, standards for promotion

to detective have seriously
dropped since I left the force.

We canvassed the neighborhoods

where the two victims were killed.

We found a syringe with
traces of the compound in it

and your fingerprint.

You care to explain that?

Hey, kiss my ass, Detective.

I was a cop, remember?

If you'd found a syringe
with my prints on it,

we wouldn't be talking.

Are we done?

We're done.

For now.

But don't leave town.

Rachel?

What?

Not a syringe.

A gun.

I don't follow.

Detective Cordero just
tried to trick him into

confessing by suggesting
that we had found a syringe.

Well, there are no

puncture marks on any
of the victims' bodies.

No bullet holes, either.

I don't mean that kind of gun.

Jet injector gun.

Uses a powerful jet of
liquid instead of a needle

to penetrate the skin.

No puncture marks.

We need to subpoena

all medical suppliers
of jet injector guns

and get names of any
individuals or companies

in Southern California

who've made purchases
in the last 12 months.

What is it?

Uh... uh, it's nothing.

I just keep getting

the same junk mail text message.

Uh, it's so annoying.

Do you think there's really a chance

the people in those cylinders...

those heads...

can ever be revived?

Well, the science is debatable

and the ethics are
questionable, but sure,

there's a chance.

Just as there's a chance a snowstorm

could bury the East Coast
on the Fourth of July.

I'm serious.

So am I.

It happened.

1816.

It was a combination

of low-magnetic
activity from the sun,

ash clouds and sulfur aerosols

from a volcanic
eruption the year before,

but it... it created a...
a summer of snow and rain

across the entire
Northern Hemisphere.

So, if there is a chance,

it's probably worth
taking it... I mean,

considering the alternative.

Sooner or later,
Rachel... everyone dies.

I mean, you can fight it.

My wife did.

But in the end, um...

in the end, I think it's how
you face your death that counts.

I don't know about you,

but I wouldn't like to face mine

as a frozen head on a Popsicle stick.

Cordero.

This is Rachel.

We'll be right there.

That ex-cop, Lux...

they just found him
dead in his apartment.

Nothing says guilty

like killing yourself
with the murder weapon.

I'm not so sure.

Drinking this compound's
not a very efficient way

of absorbing it into the bloodstream.

The stomach acids would break it down

before it had a chance to
reach the rest of the body.

One thing we do know for sure.

Our prime suspect just
became our latest victim.

Anything good?

Jet injectors were ordered

by Camp Pendleton near San Diego

and a diabetes research
institute in Pasadena.

All of them are accounted for.

Another dead end.

Hang on a second.

I also got a subpoena

for all PayPal transactions
involving online purchases

of surplus jet injectors

- over the past six months.
- And?

One was shipped to a Malibu
PO box less than a month ago.

The user name on the PayPal account

is... Glacialis?

Glacialis.

That's Latin for "frozen."

What's the name on the account?

Eddie?

No, Mrs. Grekowski.

Yes?

This is special agent Rachel Young.

I'm from the FBI.

I'm trying to find your husband.

I've been calling his cell phone,

but he doesn't pick up.

Is something wrong?

He signed a contract

with the Forever Forward
Foundation yesterday.

I'm afraid he might be in danger.

And I'm wondering if he's gotten

any odd text messages recently?

No, just junk mail, but nothing.

He's at the Foundation right
now dropping off a check.

Dr. Nash.

What is this?

FBI, Mr. Grekowski.

What are you doing here?

We could ask you

the same question,

but we already know the answer.

I'm here to certify a
death. That's my job.

"The way our culture tries
to deny death is tragic."

Isn't that what you told us

at the morgue?

I'd be happy to have this discussion

some other time, but right
now I have work to do.

Whoa, whoa, what the
hell is going on here?

Dr. Nash is the one who sent you
those threatening text messages.

I don't understand.

There's nothing to understand.

This is crazy.

Cryonics attacks your whole
belief system, doesn't it?

Your world view.

I just respect death.

I think everybody should.

Well, that respect is
what's kept you going,

helped you cope with your job

day in, day out.

Year after year.

Corpse after corpse.

You know how much money people
like Grekowski here waste

trying to cheat
death, what that money

could be used for?

A billion children go to bed

on this planet every night hungry

while hundreds of millions of dollars

are thrown away

on ridiculous dreams of immortality.

Joey Lux stole the chemical

for you and provided
information on clients.

You killed him to
keep him from talking

and tried to make
it look like suicide.

And you came here to kill
Mr. Grekowski on the premises.

A customer frozen to death

at a cryonics lab?

Well, that's big news.

Could certainly close down
this facility for good,

maybe bring the whole
field into disrepute.

You're both crazy.

You don't have proof of any of this.

Well,we know

that you took delivery
of a jet injector gun,

the type used to administer cryazine

without leaving any marks.

The LAPD's on their way.

I wonder what they'll find

when they search your place.

More missing bottles
of cryazine, maybe?

Don't move!

You move...

He dies.

They were all gonna die anyway.

Let's go.

Stay here.

Drop it, Nash.

It's over,

Doctor.

Let him go.

Step back!

Everybody...

Move away.

I mean it!

I will kill him.

Don't do it, Nash.

One more step.

It's over, Lucas.

Everybody back away.

I'm serious.

Come any closer, he dies.

Please...

I just want to see my son.

Nash, listen to him.

Oh, no.

Rachel,

this man needs an iron infusion now!

This is Special Agent Rachel Young.

I need an ambulance at
Forever Forward Foundation.

Third and Rosemead.

Temp is 95.7 and falling.

Come on, Mr. Grekowski.

- Stay with me.
- Is he gonna make it?

If we keep his temperature

above 86 degrees,
he may have a chance.

Temp is 95.2. He needs more iron.

Eddie, you hear me?

I need you to stay
awake for me, Eddie.

I need you to stay awake.

We're almost at the hospital.

Now, please, keep your eyes open.

Can you see me?

Now, I want you to think
about your little boy.

I want you to think about your son.

Think about how much
you want to see your son.

Keep your eyes open. Can you see me?

Stay awake. We're almost

at the hospital.

He's right over there.

- Oh, hi.
- Hi.

I'm Emily Grekowski.

Yes, of course, please sit down.

Oh, no, thank you.

I just wanted to let you know

that the doctors say my
husband's going to be fine.

For now.

Thanks to you.

Uh,

but I don't even know your names.

Oh, I'm Jacob Hood.

This is Rachel Young.

Hi.

- Hi.
- Mrs. Grekowski,

a friend of mine works

for Memorial Sloan Kettering

in, uh, Manhattan.

He's part of a team

working on a new treatment
for your husband's illness.

Last I heard they were getting
