I don't know
what it sounded like, McNabb.

I just said that I heard
a strange noise.

Is that precise enough
for you?

No, I suppose
you needn't send someone.

I'll just have a look myself.

As usual.

Who's there?

Answer me!

Evening, Officer.

What are you doing out
at this hour?

Drinking.

Go home to your beds.

I just need to find one
that'll have me.

Station House Four cells
will be happy to have you

if you don't get a move on.

All right, all right.

Humorless git.

Show yourself!

What the devil?

Amazing.

What's so amazing
about some bloody rocks

falling from the sky?

It's a true celestial event.
It's fascinating.

It's nothing but a nuisance.

We must have received
about a hundred calls

from people who thought
the world was coming to an end.

What's amazing
is not what they're made of,

but where they're from.

Yes, they come
from another planet, sir!

Isn't that right?

A bit like Halley's comet

except these ones
have crashed to the ground.

Well, it's not exactly
like Halley's comet, George.

Halley's comet
has a distinct orbital path.

Meteors are
a completely different thing.

Crabtree.
Listen to these two.

There are all sorts of rocks
and debris out in space.

Occasionally, they get trapped
in Earth's gravitational pull

and begin a plunge downward.

Sir, how was nobody killed?

Well, the speed at which they
enter the Earth's atmosphere

causes them to burn up
to nothing.

Surely no, sir.

You mean to tell me
that rocks burn?

Let me explain.

Oh! Congratulations, Crabtree.
Now look what you've done.

As you know, the Earth
is surrounded by an atmosphere

comprised of gases
that provide friction

against any object
that moves through it.

Thank the Lord.

And friction creates heat.

Yes?

- Iron ore melts at...
- Yes.

Yes. I'll send my best man
out there immediately.

Thank you. Goodbye.

Crabtree,
get out to Side Road 4.

There's a farmer out there
reporting a disturbance.

Sir, does it have anything to do
with the meteors?

I don't bloody know.

Oh, and take Watts with you.

He seems
exceptionally idle today.

So then, sir, am I your...

You said you'd send
your best man.

It's just something to say,
Crabtree.

Get a move on.

Oh, I see!

You're trying to determine the
atmospheric drag coefficient.

Yes, I thought I would assume

half of the atmospheric pressure
at sea level.

That's a good compromise.

Bloody hell.
I'll leave you two to it.

What's that?

Well, sir, it is a plant.

The particular sort
I am not certain.

I know it's a bloody plant,
Higgins.

What's it doing in here?

I thought the office
could use some brightening up.

I don't like it.

I'm sorry, sir.

Would you like me
to get rid of it?

Just put it
somewhere unobtrusive.

What was that telephone call
about last night?

Pardon me?

You said you heard
a disturbance.

Oh, it was nothing.
But thank you for asking.

Is there anything you would
like me to do today, sir?

I am ready to serve.

I'll tell you
if I need anything.

Ah. Very good.
As I said, I will be ready.

Are you all right, Higgins?

Never better, sir.
Never better.

What if there are more
than just rocks up there?

What sort of more?

Creatures.

Do you imagine there could be
life up there beyond the stars?

I don't need to imagine.
Just think of it.

All those stars,
all those planets.

Who would be arrogant enough
to assume

that we are the only life
in all the vastness of space?

- So you believe in space aliens?
- I do indeed.

What do you think
they look like?

Because I imagine they're
terrible-looking creatures

with large heads
and long fingers.

Or maybe not fingers.
Maybe... Maybe suction cups.

Or maybe... maybe they have
no heads at all, like squid.

That's what they're like.

Or who knows?
Maybe they're lovely.

Maybe they're elflike
and friendly.

Who could say?

Intelligent?

I fear they may be
more cunning.

How do you think
they would regard us?

That's just the thing.

They... They might think
we're just as terrible.

Which is why we need
to keep our guard up.

- And this happened last night?
- Just after the meteors.

What did you hear?

I thought it was a fight,

but when I came outside
there was no one here.

Just this strange thing.

- What do you think it is?
- I have no idea.

I'm going to bring it back
to the station house.

Suit yourself.

Madam.

Tea, sir?

Thank you very much, Higgins.
That's very kind.

What the devil's going on?

I understood
you liked tea, sir.

I do like tea.

Never mind.

Very good. Would you like me
to go on patrol now?

What have you done wrong,
Higgins?

I hope nothing, sir.

I am just ready to take on
the obligations of my job.

Get back to your desk.

Very good.

Very good.

Henry.
Did you see this last night?

I did not.
What is it?

I-I'm not sure.

It looks like rubbish.
Let me get rid of it for you.

N-No, Henry.
I want this.

Are you all right?

Everything is perfectly fine.

Sorry to disturb you, sir.

Lucky it didn't hit the house.

When did it happen?

Around 2:00 in the morning,
heard a crash,

came outside.

Just replaced the boards
as well.

- Can you see to the bottom?
- I can't.

Must be an awful distance.

- What did you say it was?
- A meteor.

- Can we be expecting more?
- I don't know.

Could have brained me
as easy as not.

See if you can find out
anything else.

I'm going to visit
the neighboring farms,

see if there have been
any other reports.

I'll, uh, be back presently.

You say
it came from outer space?

I did.

Should we be worried?

My God, yes!

Mr. O'Riely, heaven knows
what sort of beasts

inhabit the cosmos.

Wasps nests and many of
the phylum Arthropoda

build their homes
out of chewed wood.

And silk secreted
from their bodies.

But this is neither of those.

It is organic.

It seems to be
some sort of cocoon.

Yes, but what species?

I don't know.

Miss Hart, could you perform
a thorough examination of this?

Let's see
if we can try to determine

what material it's composed of.

I'll do what I can.

Do you have any thoughts,
Julia?

I do indeed.

Main one being
that this is beyond us.

Hopefully someone at the
university's zoology department

will be able to shed some light.

Looks like it goes on forever.

It can't go on forever.

Right? I mean, that's...
That's impossible.

We would be able to see China
if that was the case.

So you're one of those who
believes the world is round?

Yes, I do.

Okay.

Wait.

Oh! Sweet...

- There's something down there.
- Yes, clearly there is.

And what happens to us
if it gets out?

Let's see that it doesn't.

Hello, Miss Hart.

Would you like some tea?
I have some freshly steeped.

Orange pekoe, I believe.

I don't enjoy tea, Constable.

Oh, it's very good.

W-What are you doing?

Trying to figure out
what this thing is.

Why are you doing that?

- Well, the detective asked.
- You shouldn't be doing that.

W-What are you doing?

What is going to happen
is for the best.

- What took you so long?
- I'm sorry, George.

The woods
were particularly pleasant.

I may have lingered
longer than I should.

What are you doing?

Trying to keep whatever's
down there from coming out.

There's something down there?

Huh! Something alive!

We have to tell the detective.

And what exactly
do you think it is?

I don't know, but I fear
I may have angered it.

How?

I may have struck it
with a piece of wood.

Then you're right.
We should tell the detective.

That is our job
and those are the rules,

and the rules must be obeyed.

- Well, I agree with that, but...
- But what, George?

Well, I've never quite heard you
speak like this.

Really?

Well, I suppose
you haven't been listening.

Let us go get the detective.

I'll be along in a moment,
George.

I just need to get some
particulars from Mr. O'Riely.

Now, Mr. O'Riely,
I have a few questions for you.

O-Okay.

And Professor McPherson
at the University of Toronto

has never seen the likes of it.

Has it done something wrong?

- Well, no.
- Then I don't care.

Then why did you ask me
to come in?

I was hoping
you'd have a word with Higgins.

Higgins? Why?

I'm not sure
he's right in the head.

Really?

And how is that
manifesting itself?

Look.

He's being very dutiful.

And remarkably pleasant.

And that's a condition
that concerns you?

There's something
not quite right about it.

Could you estimate how deep
the caldera is?

- The what?
- The caldera.

When a meteor hits the ground,

the impact depression
is known as a caldera.

Or, more commonly, as a crater.

Well, see, sir,
I know what a crater is.

Why wouldn't you just say that?

I'm sorry, sir, I don't mean
to seem testy, I just...

Something strange is afoot.
I can feel it.

Good day, Detective.
Constable.

Good day.

Do you see what I mean?

See what?

Sir, people almost never
say hello to us.

I hadn't really noticed.

Well, I have.
Often.

I've often thought a
policeman's lot is a lonely one.

Sir, why this?

You said you heard noises.

Yes, that's right.
It sounded like...

Oh! I-I can't do it, but it
sounded something like that.

Yes, well, I plan to use
this recording equipment

to get a more accurate
representation.

Detective. Constable.

- Miss Hart.
- I bring news.

I believe what you found
is the nest of a cecropia.

Cecropia! Good Lord!

- That's just a moth, George.
- Oh.

Oh, sir,
that makes perfect sense.

A moth from outer space.
Its wings would come in handy.

There's no air in space, George.

I think wings
would be of little use.

Don't you think the cocoon is
a bit large for that, Miss Hart?

Perhaps it is a large specimen.

From what I have read,
they do vary in size.

Yes, well, I do agree

it does resemble
the nest of a cecropia,

but I just don't think
that's it.

- Please keep looking.
- I shall, Detective.

Are you planning a trip?

More like an expedition,
Miss Hart.

And a very important one
at that.

Henry!

Thank you for coming in.
Please, have a seat.

So how are you?

I'm very good.

- So everything is going well?
- Things could not be better.

I am a lucky man.

Why do you say that?

I am an important person.

I have a loving and dutiful
wife, and I am a policeman.

Yes. You are.

And I am honored to be thus.

Can you imagine
a more important job?

And I hold it.

You must be very proud
of your husband

because he is
the best policeman.

Well, yes, I am.

So you're sure
everything's all right?

I have never been better.
Why do you ask?

Well... and don't take this
the wrong way...

You're being very, very nice.

Thank you.
It is important to be nice.

Perhaps it is the most
important thing a man can be.

What are you doing?

Having some plant
and talking to you.

Anything I can help you with?

No, Dr. Ogden,
thank you very much.

We were just waiting
for our friend.

- Henry.
- Henry.

How many feet of wire
do we have, George?

Sir, a hundred feet almost.

That should do it.
Let it out.

You really think the meteorite
is down there, George?

Uh, meteor, sir.

Not exactly, George.

When a meteor is in the sky,
it is a meteor,

but when it hits the ground,

it is then technically
referred to as a meteorite.

Why is that?

It just is.

Well, it seems an unnecessary
complication, sir.

And you're quite sure you...
You heard something down there?

More than that, sir.

I threw a piece of wood
down there.

Something threw it back.

Hello! Would you gentlemen
like some tea?

Thank you, but no.

You know,
you two don't have to be here.

I have a man coming by
to fix the hole in the wall.

And he gave me
a very fair deal.

And he can start soon enough.

We won't be taking up
much of your time.

Do you think something criminal
is going on down there?

I don't know.

You are a detective,
aren't you?

Isn't it your job
to fight crime?

It is.

But this is
more of a scientific endeavor.

That's it, sir.
I've reached the end.

Fascinating!

Do you hear something, sir?

Can you hear something, sir?!

Yes! Yes!

It appears you were right,
George.

There is definitely
something down there.

Sir.
No, I... I won't.

I suppose not.

Quick, George, get something
so we can capture it.

- Good Lord, sir. What is it?
- I don't know.

It's from space!

Let's just say
it's from the ground.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Everything.

- I don't know.
- Why do you say that?

The station hasn't received
a single call today.

Not one complaint.

No littering, no loitering.
Not even any lollygagging.

- And that's bad?
- It's not right.

Best of the day to you,
Inspector.

See? Everyone's being
so damned pleasant.

You know what I would do
if I were you.

- What?
- Enjoy it.

The world
is not often this way.

I know that.

- I just don't much care for it.
- Oh, Thomas.

It's just a lot of noise.

Sir, I believe
it could be something more.

Do you? What?

I don't know.

Well, it's bloody annoying.

Where is your sense of inquiry?

Something has landed
here on Earth from space!

And now these noises.

Sir, I think it's possible

something could be trying to
communicate with us.

All right.
What are they saying?

I don't know.

Then who cares if they're
trying to communicate or not?

Sir, we could be on the
threshold of a whole new era.

Look, sir, have a listen.

It's still just bloody noise.

- And you've spoken to Higgins?
- I did.

Well, he's gone off his nut,
has he not?

I'm not sure I would phrase it
that way,

but he did seem different.

Different?!

Doctor,
by the time Watts and I

got back from the farm,

Higgins had done
all my paperwork

and cleaned the keys
of my typewriter.

Well, that was thoughtful.

Yes, exactly.
Higgins is not a thoughtful man.

It's because of those meteors.

I'm telling you, nothing has
been the same since then.

Now, George, meteors are nothing
but rocks from space.

Well, that may be so, but...

Even Watts is acting strangely.

And some might say Watts
is strange to begin with.

I'm telling you,
something is wrong,

and it makes me
very, very uncomfortable.

Good day, Constable.
Lovely day out, isn't it?

Ah. Yes, indeed.

Do you see what I mean?

Mm? It's just someone
being courteous, George.

- It's not that unusual.
- It's Toronto.

This behavior
is completely normal, George.

People were very alarmed with
this recent celestial event.

Some may have even thought it
the end of the world.

And then the next day, the sun
comes up as it always does

and everything is well.

Being grateful and appreciative
after avoiding a tragedy

is a most human reaction.

So, what are you suggesting?

That from this day forward, the
world will be a better place?

Oh, no, George.
Don't worry.

I am sure the murder and mayhem
will continue shortly.

Hello?

Hello?

Who's in here?

Julia.

Look.

Have you ever seen anything
so fascinating?

- What is it?
- I have no idea.

But it certainly isn't
a cecropia.

And it's definitely
not of this continent.

But it's from here.

Well, i-it's from the calder...

Uh, crater
that I've been investigating.

You think this is
from another planet?

Well, it is possible

that it came out of
the inside of the meteor.

How fascinating!

And if you can believe it,

I think they may be trying
to communicate with us.

Well, what would be
the point of coming all this way

if they weren't going to
say something about it?

That's disappointing.

Hopefully there are more.

Good gracious.

Holy heart of M...

- Sir!
- George! Listen to this!

Sir, I've heard enough
of that.

It is some kind of language.

I know.

George, do you know
what this means?

It means you were right!

We have been contacted by
creatures from another planet.

George, you were right!

Sir! I'm pleased I was right,
but I'm not happy about it.

There is something
at the bottom of that crater

sending out transmissions.

I'm certain of it.

We need to get whatever it is
out of there.

Sir, I don't think
we need go that far.

I believe that Constable Higgins
is one of them.

As is Miss Hart,
as is Detective Watts,

as is God knows
how many people.

Now, George, I've believed

everything you've said
up to a point.

I don't think I'm quite prepared

to push the boat
all the way out.

But, sir!

All right.

If you think something strange
is going on,

then by all means
keep an eye on them.

I-I have to find Dr. Ogden.

She knows a number
of clever linguists

who may be able to decipher
whatever is being said.

Julia?

Julia?

Can I help you?

Ah, yes.
Have you seen Dr. Ogden?

No.
But I'm sure I can help you.

Would you like some tea?

- No, it's fine.
- It's very good.

You were right.
It was no moth.

But did you have to kill him?

What harm had he done?

Miss Hart,
are you quite all right?

Let me help you.

You don't need Dr. Ogden.

Please just tell Julia that
I need to speak with her.

Become one of us.

Life is better
if you're one of us.

No.

No! No! No!

No!

Sir, I've been thinking.

This... This may not be any
ordinary interplanetary visit,

but rather some sort of
alien invasion.

Go on.

Sir, I believe
that these space creatures

have figured out a way
o-of changing our behavior.

I don't know if it's through

these infernal sounds
they keep emitting,

but I believe
they have figured out a way of

influencing the way that we act.

The sounds, George?

Sir, think about it.

Higgins.
Higgins is being responsible.

How often does that happen?

Detective Watts is acting
as normally as you or I.

Miss Hart is being
exceedingly pleasant.

I mean, these are not
the normal course of events.

What are you talking about,
George?

Sir, I believe these creatures
are taking us over one by one.

You or I could be next.

There is no alien invasion,
George.

The creature I found
was just a moth.

A moth?

But, sir, you even...

You said you agreed with me.

That was a joke, George.

I was pulling your arm.

You, sir?
A joke?

Yes.
Something to evoke laughter.

And a good one at that, sir.

A real knee-slapper.
Yes.

- Crabtree!
- Oh!

- What are you doing?
- Inspector.

Uh, the detective asked me
to gather up

some of his recording equipment.

Of course he did.

- Sir?
- Well, typical bloody Murdoch.

Always scared of a little
heavy lifting. And digging.

Sir, thank God! I have to
talk to you about something.

Thomas.

- It'll have to wait, I'm afraid.
- Sir, it's important.

Are you saying that my wife,

Mrs. Margaret Brackenreid,
isn't?

Oh, Thomas?

I'll talk to you
when I'm good and ready.

Coming, darling!

And you're telling me that
one of these voices is William?

I'm afraid so, Doctor.

It's clear now that he's become
one of these creatures.

No. No.
It's not possible.

Doctor, I know you don't want
to believe it, but it's true.

Even the detective believed

that space aliens were
taking over this planet.

That is until he became
one of the creatures himself.

Now, George, you're letting
your imagination...

Doctor, you've seen it
with your own eyes!

People all over this city
are acting differently.

There are people who were
near and dear to us who are...

Who are no longer themselves.

Space aliens
are taking over the world.

I need to talk to William
about this.

You cannot talk to William
about this!

William is no more.

- No!
- Doctor...

Look, you need to find him
and restrain him somehow

until we can figure out
what to do about this.

I'm sorry.
I feel awful about it.

And I feel awful
on a personal level.

What do you mean, George?

You may not be aware of this,
but over the years,

I've had some
rather fantastical theories.

And I've always wished that
one of them would come true.

And now that it has...

...I've lost my best friend.

I'm going to go home.
And if William is there...

Then you need to...
You need to lock him up.

Lock him
in the potato-cooking room.

- Turn it on if you have to.
- George!

I'm telling you.
Doctor...

Do you know how to use this?

- Yes, of course.
- Use it if you have to.

Are you suggesting
I kill my husband?

Doctor, he is no longer
your husband.

What about the rest of them?

Constable Higgins
and Detective Watts...

Don't worry.
I think I have an idea.

Watts. Higgins.

Yes, George.

I need your help.

Certainly.
That is why we are here.

- To help.
- To help.

Right.
There's a-a ruckus in the cells.

A ruckus?
We can't be having that.

Let's get to it.

Uh, wait.
Watts, you come with me.

Higgins, I need you
to fetch Miss Hart.

One of the prisoners
needs medical attention.

Certainly, George.

Police action.

I wouldn't get
too close to him, Watts.

We don't know
what he's ailing from.

Where are the other prisoners?

Well, we haven't really had any
other prisoners in several days.

It was just this chap
who was acting up.

Ah, Miss Hart.
Please come in.

Higgins.

I don't know who you are

or w-what you've done
with my friends,

but it takes a great deal

to pull one over
on George Crabtree.

A great deal indeed.

This planet is ours, not yours!

And you won't be taking it
from George Crabtree,

Toronto Constabulary,
human being!

- All of them?
- Every one of them, sir.

Even the detective, I fear.

That is troubling.

It's a lot more
than troubling, sir.

Do you think we should
do something about it?

Yes, of course.

Sir, what are you doing?

We need to formulate a plan.

William?

Welcome home, Julia.
How was your day?

It was lovely.
You?

It was most pleasant.

Would you like to have romance?

Pardon?

It's what a husband and wife do,
is it not?

Let me get changed.

I can help you with that.

Uh, not now, William.

I want romance.

Not another step!

Romance.

You don't want romance?

William.

So, what do you think
we should do

about this alien invasion,
George?

Well, sir, we need to... to, uh,
tell somebody.

T-The army.
The... The prime minister.

We need to mobilize our forces
and beat back these invaders.

We need to save the world.

Are you sure?

Yes, I think so.

Don't you think
this is for the best?

The best?

Look at the world.

It's all so much more peaceful.

Well, sir...

You might be thinking that...

...but...

- I should go.
- But why?

We've only just started to talk
about what we're going to do.

Yes, sir, but I might...

I might be mistaken
about the whole thing.

I mean, I-I'm certainly
not sleeping very much.

I'm sure my mind
is playing tricks on me.

No, George, I believe you.

I want to help you.

That is my job.

To help.
I'm a policeman.

It is my duty
to serve and protect.

Sir?

Sir!

A man's best friend.

- Hello?
- Doctor!

You better be right,
George Crabtree.

I believe I am.

I just killed my husband.

Dear God,
I listened to George Crabtree

and killed my husband.

He wasn't your husband anymore.

He was just some sort of bug.

Listen, Doctor,
whether you like it or not,

Detective William Murdoch
is No more.

Watts is no more.

Higgins, Miss Hart,
even the inspector,

they're all gone.

The inspector's wife?

Hard to tell.
Hard to tell with her.

But listen, Doctor,
I want you to stay there.

I think I have an answer.

What do you mean,
you have the answer?

You think
you can bring them back?

No, but I think I know
how to kill them.

And if we can kill them,

we just might be able
to save the world.

- Please hurry, George.
- I will.

Don't let anybody in.

I won't.

Romance?

Higgins?

Watts?

Good day, Constable.

I'd like to thank you
for all that you do.

- You're very welcome.
- Could I buy you a tea?

- Thank you, no.
- Are you sure?

I really think
you should join us for tea.

Uh, I can't!

I knew it!

All right.

You should've told me you'd like
something stronger than tea.

Tea? Yes, I've never...
I've never fancied the stuff.

Huh. These fellows
certainly needed their rest.

Rest?

Yes.

I tell you what.

Why don't you have
a drink of what I'm drinking?

I assure you
it's much better than tea.

I'd love it.
Thank you.

Should we toast?

Certainly.
To your health.

Burning.

Careful picking your poison.

The one they call Crabtree.
He knows.

Then we must find him.

- Thievery is a crime.
- I'm a policeman.

Then it's a worse crime.

Oh, good God!

Doctor?

Dr. Ogden?
Doctor! Ah!

Doctor, I think
I may have found it.

I believe I've found a solution.

Solution to what, George?

What's going on here?

You're supposed to be dead.

Dead?
Why would he be dead, George?

Because you said
you killed him!

I'm his loving wife.

Why would I kill him?
I'm to honor and obey him.

No.
Not you as well.

She's my loving wife, George,
why wouldn't she join us?

You can too, George.
Would you like some tea?

We could talk about it.
It's good to talk about things.

Yes.

- Hello, old friend.
- What?

You're dead!

Why do you think
everyone is dead, George?

Can't you see?
We are all right as rain.

- Would you like some tea?
- No, I would not.

What are you doing here?

Why don't you
just leave us alone?!

Stop it!
You're not from here!

You don't belong here!

We want to help.

We want to make
a better world.

Our world is just fine.

- No, it's not.
- To me it is!

Don't you see?
To have a better world...

All humans must die.

We have watched your world
for a long time,

and all we see is...

- Crime.
- Disease.

- Death.
- Murder.

And mayhem.

All humans must die, George,

so that all of the other

creatures in this world
can live.

No. No.

No! No!

No!

Don't struggle, buggerlugs.

Buggerlugs.
That is a good one.

Why, thank you, Henry.

From this day forward,
we will all be buggerlugs.

- Buggerlugs.
- Buggerlugs.

- Buggerlugs.
- Buggerlugs.

- Buggerlugs.
- Buggerlugs.

- Buggerlugs.
- Buggerlugs.

Would you like the honor?

I thought you would never ask.

No. No. No.

No!

Help!
I need help!

Tom! Tom!

They're out there.
They're everywhere!

Why don't you have a seat?

- Have some tea.
- Huh?

Let's talk about it.

Help!
