Unknown: It paid a price in the morning.

Factors was tillable acreage, more pollution

the specimen of microbe Procion may be our best answer

it matures in only nine months.

We and other organizations

are trying to maintain the specimen

I had to stop and pick up some more film.

Of course I had forgotten what a long ride it is. You're in the mainland.

And what is this? Your answer to world hunger?

Don't laugh. It may be part of it anyway for lucky.

Come on. I'll introduce you to the great McNeal.

What does he think of the idea? Well, I

only had a chance to mention it to him once but he's terrific. You'll go a long

way going on the secret of the rapid growth of the macro rockin

perhaps we can use it to speed up the growth of this species crabs.

Paragraph?

Yes Lynn. Dr. McNeil, this is my friend Jan rains.

Well, jam, Reg, glad to meet you.

Janta the photo journalist I told you about.

Oh, yes. Oh, yes. Yes.

What I'd like to do with your permission, of course,

is an article on you and your research.

That's very nice.

Why us?

Well, I've been commissioned to do an article on world hunger.

So when men tell me about your work here,

you found crabs too interesting to resist?

No, it's just that you people are doing something positive

about some of our problems today. And

Lady if you think flattery will get you anywhere. You're right.

Well, then I can do the story. Yes.

On one condition. What's that?

Well, I'd like to have final approval of your material.

You see, we're dependent here on various philanthropic

and government agencies for our financing.

I understand it's a deal

photographically I don't know how interesting our lab will be But

We'll cooperate any way we can.

Jan say hello to Pete Adams.

I think he's after my job. Hi, how you doing? Hi, Jan raves

Jan's doing a story here about our research. He wouldn't mind her looking over your shoulder for a while would you.

I don't want it all. Look, I

got one of those impossible schedules today.

So why don't you and Lynn break gentle about the work we're doing?

Sure. Facilities and all that. Give me a ring in the morning.

We'll we'll work out a time to talk. Right.

Thank you very doctor McGill.

Do you want to start with the take that's right?

Yeah, you go ahead. I have some work here.

I have to finish up with but I'll catch up with you later.

All right.

Which the company emphasizes is still preliminary,

has turned up evidence of at least two other mechanical failures

which officials say could have been related.

One of the A steam line relief valve

that was stuck in the closed position

and the other end improperly welded pipe support

that was found within four feet of the spot where the steam line broke open.

Company officials at first refused to be interviewed on camera

about the accident at the nuclear power plant this morning,

Dianna Gonzalez has alive I report

at six this morning a full alert went into effect here at the power plant.

All indications were that a nuclear accident had taken place.

However, company officials assure us that it was a false alarm.

With us is Fred Quinby. A company representative.

Mr. Quinby. Can you tell us exactly what happened this morning? Yes,

the malfunction was a minor mechanical problem

one of the gauges that monitors the reactor failed

and it did not present a hazard to anyone.

And although what actually happened was insignificant.

It helped demonstrate that both personnel and failsafe devices built into the system

performed flawlessly.

Thank you, Mr. Quinby.

I'm Diana Gonzalez reporting live from the power plant today

series of mechanical features.

Our powerplant see you.

Okay, now this is where it all begins.

The seawater is pumped from the bay into these tanks,

and the sediment and large particles settle to the bottom.

And then the clean salt water is pumped into the tanks inside

where we conduct our experiments.

These are the holding tanks for all the crabs we'll be using later.

How long do crabs live? Nobody

really knows. But we found crabs on the Andros islands

that appear to be about 20 years old.

And most crustaceans like these reached maturity in

four to eight years.

But under controlled farming methods,

we have been able to reduce that period to two years, in some cases.

So you get more protein and faster. Yeah, exactly right.

Really, the fact of the matter is, it's just warm water,

water warmer than the environment around it. And we

found that fish and crustaceans living in the rivers adjacent to factories and power plants

mature much faster than normal.

Yeah, and the reason for that is that the water that is discharged from the factories is heated,

otherwise it wouldn't have this effect on the shrimp and crabs.

What we have done is duplicate that process in the laboratory and it works.

Have you gotten any cooperation from the plant here on this island?

What are you kidding?

That plant could easily destroy marine life,

simply by neglecting to tell us that they accidentally discharged contaminants.

There are no contaminants in those discharges.

And what makes you so sure that my father

works there.

Failiures which caused this morning shutdown of the nuclear power plant

may be more serious than first reported.

Federal investigators who started a full scale inspection of the plant just hours ago.

Now say that at least 46,000 gallons of radioactive water was spilled

onto the floor of the reactor building when a main steam line burst shortly before dawn

one highly placed divisial sort.

Thanks that is my girl

pushed me to is it very,

I was over at the Marine Lab on the island all day.

I started working on an article on some of the research they're doing over there.

How about vitamin D? Ok.

It looks great. Of course, it looks great. I made it.

You eat every bit. You'll need all your strength now that you found a new young man.

Young man, Mr. Ames? Well, I

guess Jan will have to tell you about that. Thanks

a lot, Marguerite. What young man?

He's a teaching assistant in marine science. And his name's Pete Adams.

Adams. Pete Adams. Yeah. Do you know him?

No, no, you just make him sound pretty good.

Well, don't worry, dad. He's no threat to you.

So how was your day? Well, I

guess you heard what happened? Yeah.

Was there any real danger?

None. Of course when an alert happens, we never know

until enough data comes in to make an evaluation.

Then a real disaster could occur.

While you don't have to worry about that.

We've got the best minds and most sophisticated equipment.

And I've got great confidence in the technology behind our security systems.

Dad, you sound like you're still talking to reporters at a press conference.

Like you said you were there. I am Sorry.

Look, is there any possibility that the water from the plant

might cause some kind of harmful consequences in the future?

No, not a chance.

but just suppose that our science and technology aren't as advanced as we'd like to think they are. Oh

sweetheart, do you think I'd risk you or anyone living around here

No.

Finish your dinner

Okay?

Joe how are you ding Professor He Pete when you're going to need to catch more fish

when do you want to be a millionaire yeah just for one day

well you go home

Would you believe it just scuffed up a bunch of coins

Well have somme pretty fast company nowaday.

Pretty fast or fast and pretty.

can be both

tell me what's your challenge? Oh, you missed a good crab race.

50 bucks honest to god

did you catch any fish I got a couple of boxes

I like a big head on mine I know you do

thanks, Rosie you are a sweetheart

we ended the two best

so who's the new girl

she's doing a story on some of our research projects

her name's Jan rains

Ain't it Frank rains girl you know her no

Of course he don't. But Everybody knows about her

A real pretty girl yeah

her dad works over at the power plant.

Her dad is the damn power plant

Do you know what happen up there today.

Yep it was on the TV

her dad is pretty important

he is very influential it may not be important at all

he's got his finger and just about every pie

big bucks a decent man needs to know a lot about it.

He should your daddy and moody used

to be drones if you'd stop talking long enough to notice them glasses are empty.

And I might do some business around here

You and daddy used to be what

do you have a roses nevermind what Rosie said all right

okay

I got some things I gotta do.

Okay. Okay, Rosie, bye bye.

Let's see Mood

kid put some more food out for the dog okay bye

I'm sorry you need have to tell him some day

be cautious about Frank Rains. He's a man now he's grown

It was an accident everybody knows

not everybody knows killed him that's what everybody knows

it's just like I was talking it was not anybody's fault

Besides What's past is past

come on Moody can you not forget

That's fase two

Besides we probably not gone speak about I anymore

I don't know that Martha I can still make a hell .

We got kind of cute bonzai. Stop that

Why don't you get out there and he'll serve some drinks oh

He listen why don't I come over to your place tonight.

What do you say we might find something to do you cannot keep

your hands off can you

to get to a plane grab so I think you could give me another beer?

Mandy no I don't live here

you could have fooled me

I see as a moron Joe

come on over above for drink.

Oh no, no thanks, I guess compliance Oh yeah good night Joel

good night moody

see

time planning to get up

I don't want to sleep? I was asleep

What what are you so mad at I'm mad

because you're scared the hell out of me that's why I'm mad

yeah you remind me of my wife. You could turn on man to train

us right before you ever had a wife

I was lonely then good night

today I want to talk to you

I really don't feel a hell of a lot like talking this morning

I do

yeah. All right. I see you're doing good. Go ahead you talk.

Yesterday when I told you about Jan rains you started to get all bent out of shape

when Rosie said something how come? That's none of your damn business?

What do you mean it's none of my business Moody

whoever made you my keeper made me your keeper.

Do you know what the hell you are talking ? Forget it. Would

you just forget it? Pete

No, moody. I'm not going to forget it.

You got to talk to me moody.

Now, all right. All right. All right, take it easy. I was gonna tell you

when you were just a little kid. Her father and I were partners together along with a range of marine construction alumni,

One night there was a party as a big party. It was your mom and dad's second anniversary.

Everybody was drinking and having a nice time.

Anyway, Raines insisted on driving your mom and dad home

And he drove off the causeway and he drove into the bay.

Your mom and dad was drowned and

that dirty bastard a drunken bastard rains got out he walked out

were you at that party moody

moody Peter I was too drunk to stop them and understand that I was too drunk

now like

I figured I will be probably on the mainland by

now. Yeah, well, the Bridge attendant said he doesn't remember anybody going to the mainland last night.

He was probably sleeping

Damned you'd have to be desperate to come on his way in a litte tub like that

. Oh, yeah. Nothing Sheriff they are gone.

And more than likely they're at some friends house having breakfast.

That's just exactly what I'm gonna do. I'll see you later. Okay, see?

Come on your dirty rotten dog

at some kind of trained dog you got there moody.

Yeah. So highly trained.

I have to remind him to breathe.

Alright, now look, you want to stay right there. Then you stay right there.

I'm just going home. good bye.

You want to go take care of the boat and I'll go get

well, we've already proven we can increase their speed of growth

all we want to do is to see if we can also increase their size.

Oh, he had any luck with that? Well, no.

But in the Galapagos, just off the coast of Chile, there are volcanic rifts

that heat up the water to a much higher temperature than the surrounding cold water

and the results are very large sea creatures.

Oh, isn't it where they found those giant sea worms? Yeah, that's

right. That's right. We hoped for the same results here.

That's it. Well, there you go. Gleen is working on that now.

What I'm doing is I'm keeping the crabs in a series of tanks with different temperatures

and hopefully in time we'll find the optimum temperature to maximize growth

but eventually it might pay off. Well alright then.

I've gotta get back to my article.

University Lexus to be published.

Thank you

Hey, I didn't know you like bikes.

I didn't know you like pickups.

You are coming or going.

I have just spent a lovely hour with the good doctor.

Nothing serious I hope. No, my only problem was the crabs.

I'm sorry. In photographing them.

I'm sorry. And I proove it to you at dinner tonight. Eight o'clock.

Pretty sure yourself, aren't you? Actually

I'm scared to death. You're gonna say no.

Well, I wouldn't want that to happen.

Okay, good. Hey, we could meet Linda and jack at the beach bar.

All right. See you at eight o'clock. 8:30 2606

Otis.

Hi What's up

you've been what

you are serious we'll take it easy take it easy

alright Where are you okay

okay I'll be there yeah bye bye

it's right up around this bend

much for your tires

I've just feeling they attacked people will

base did you said that that they don't come out in the daytime and they did

you said that they don't migrate this time of year and they did

so why couldn't they attack me

maybe two out of three but not that

you okay yeah Are you sure the ground

is caved in right there

some kind of shell

think we have to get out of here

you walk all right. Yeah. Okay, come on

believe it

it's like I owe you an apology

John, John, this is unbelievable.

Look at the size of this shell Were did you got it

and let's let's have a look at this

the sequence. Here's one that goes on the back right here.

It can be done. Dr. McNeil. Could this be a result of your research?

Maybe? Maybe not it. It may be another crab of the same species

that we've never seen before.

John, I think we may have done it.

Let's not go breaking our arms patting ourselves on the back.

We need proof. This is proof

John it's happening

Rosie. Rosie This is Jan Rains

the pleasure What do you have? Oh beer,

you don't have to beer beer is fine.

Leave the lady alone. She knows what she want

How are you doing.

All right, yeah. All right. Yes, sir.

Moody. I'd like you to meet Jan rains.

Heard a lot of nice things about you

what happened to your arm honey

I had an accident on my bike.

Well Come with me. I think I got something that'll take care of that

looks like you should be more careful on a bike. Yeah,

I guess so. Boy Yeah. Moody's just the way Pete described

he's one of a kind there's no getting around there.

This should not hurt

seems like a nice girl thank you Moody

Why is everybody so quiet?

Famous got killed last night. What?

There was fire as his houseburned down

I got her all fixed.

Good. Rosie moody we're gonna go Oh,

nice meeting. I see you later Rosie

you told him didn't you? Yeah

so I said well, thank you very much officer.

I started it up I put her in here and than went back into the policecar

only the best for the best.

You'll see there are some for you my dear.

And for you heavy on the end and for you big guy.

And for me

now I'd like to propose a toast

to someone very special.

has become the most important person in my life

Hear hear and to show you and the world how I feel.

I hope you'll accept this token of love.

And the guy who offers it to you all right

maybe the two would like to be alone right now.

Let's go for a walk. Gwen Yeah

Did you have any idea that was gonna happen?

No. Did you no

Why he did not just wait until they were alone?

I don't know.

Some dumb stance like that myself.

Chuck Wait a minute. Look, I'm really sorry. I don't know what to say.

I'm very flattered, but I just don't know. Wonderful.

I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression. Well, you

know now's a great time to tell me you should did a turn around Cintia

I don't give a damn what they think.

I think I'd better leave. No Wait

can we talk about it? Please.

I don't want to talk here.

Let's go for a ride

okay

it's funny what?

You spend years in school.

You think you got a pretty good grasp on things

and then something like that shell pops up

makes you realize how little you do know

I thought we had a lot in common we Do

I like you a lot but you don't love me

Do you no I don't

I don't want to get married yet got too many things I want to do

can you understand that

I like to be alone for a while

okay I'll take you back no no I'm gonna walk I need some time

Are you sure it's a long way back

I don't like leaving you alone just what I need

I'll be right really on my way back

okay I'll be waiting for you

Thank you?

scotch and soda

Oh my god

you have any idea what happened?

We heard her screaming like crazy out in the woods.

By the time we got to her she'd already passed out.

She gonna be okay.

We don't know about the arm she got pretty badly mutilated

maybe half a dozen lacerations down to the bone.

compound fracture she lost a lot of blood.

When can we See her? Well she did regain consciousness once

but she was incoherent Did she say anything?

Yeah, and she kept saying something about a crab

but it didn't make any sense.

We're doing some research on crabs.

Yeah, let explain it Look

she's gonna be under for quite a while.

There's really nothing you can do here why don't you go home and take it easy?

And if you'd like check with me say

12 o'clock

okay

I didn't sleep well last night. I just couldn't get it off my mind

we will miss him when is the funeral

It was Monday three o'clock? Sure is hard

to believe. What do you think really happened?

What I mean really happened I suppose like the fire marshals said

he knocked over a lamp or something? Come on

that doesn't explain why the bus was kind of on its side

maybe the heat vocoders but he haven't

had a burn like that. It takes a lot of heat to do that to a bus something funny about

this Between you and me You're making too much or something like this. There's nothing

right or no data do you think somebody could have set that fire?

Maybe not who would do a terrible thing like that? I

don't know. What about that boat?

The one they found on the beach

I talked to the sheriff about that he said

they said they didn't find anybody

Well that don't mean domain that Dane is around here somewhere

I bet you some of them Haitians are so what

they found the boat the morning Amos was killed did they not

that's a big damn clue isn't that don't prove nothing.

Oh yeah. I read about them Haitians

Do you know what they do with that go to crap

yeah sure. I know

all right. What do you want me to do about it call the sheriff?

The sheriff that's a laugh people he would not know Hatien .

What do you want me to do about it?

Don't worry I'll think of something

do me a favor will your joe don't think of something?

You look like you had a great time last night.

I did not, not really.

Why you know Lin

works in the lab.

Something attacked her last night moody it torned up her arm to shreds

she's still unconscious. What do you mean something?

I don't know.

Where did it happen?

It was out past Amis out in the woods

plenty going on.

Some people already know about Haitians

You know that voodoo stuff that you'll be learning about

You see I told you put that damn thing away and wrap it around your neck.

Haitians put it away Joe

Yeah what happened

it's alright it's alright come on everybody let's go on in back and have a good time

foreign language.

the crab is constantly growing inside of the shell

when it molts his shell, the outer skin which has been wrinkled up like a prune inside

starts to absorb water and then it hardens into a new shell

and then this whole process starts all over again.

What I'm doing is injecting various formulas of growth hormone into the crab

and then this is supposed to override the braking system

which is what When it eventually stops the growth of the crab

Where you get growth hormone we

creat it right here in the lab

you mean you're working with DNA gene splicing

that's really risky

But also the nuclear power

Rain lab speaking

sure all right

yes we will

the hospital

foreign language

take it easy

Jesus I don't care who did it

just be careful

you got that damned door closed

get it closed moody stay

Haitians moody it them Haitians who done it

Get some lights guns

we're gonna get them a meet back here.

Come on with me

she'll be conscious in an hour.

We wanted someone here we couldn't save here

we did not heard from her parents yet.

They won't be until tonight that's why we call you

We wait till she wakes up

Doctor right before you operated did she make any mention of the crabs again? Yes

she did she she mumbled something about them.

Okay can you remember if she said crab or crabs?

Sorry I can't

thanks doctor

a crab that's as big as the one that we found what have a claw two feet long

well that size could do a lot of

damage. Yeah, it already has.

Well you know what we have to do?

We've got to find it we got to stop it with

a trap maybe it has to be real strong no

we don't have anything that big at the lab and take time to build one.

How about a net John I can get one

now that might do it

it's funny.

He come look at this

one beach?

John check this out.

We got any more that tranquilizer It is not ready but I can make some will

we drop you at the lab John and make up a couple of darts

we'll go Moody's and get the tranquilizer gun right

what's wrong Joe is going after the Haitians come in the flashlight What

do you think they're still around?

I don't know but I gotta get out before somebody is hurt Be careful hear

please we mean you no harm You must help us

there is a little girl. Colette she is very sick.

You must help us. What is the matter with her

she's been unconscious for a day

Where is she? Follow me please?

Go ahead

will meet you at Moody's bar

let's get into my place telephone for the judge

quickly

you know where he's going well beat the hell out of me

I think we're just going to run

Can you get the tranquilizer into the crab yes I gotta get it in the soft part of the joints

got it

out here

my god

my house

all right

all right hangon

a Second

John can you help me

get on the other side helping lift it

big hit the house it came through the roof.

It almost killed us He almost killed us and we got a sick little girl over there.

We need to get to a telephone

figure this way i know have

wasted damn time walking around in circles.

Yes Haitians I should have know better.

Wait you guys I know they're off there somewhere.

We're not getting anywhere. Listen Have you forgotten what they've done?

They killed Amis they killed trouble they

might have been here yesterday but they're gone now

we look what the hell

listen to me now you are talking?

I know they're out there somewhere

so don't worry about it throughout their lives we'll find them tomorrow Don't

worry let's get some beer in here

did you get them your phones out?

We gotta get her into the hospital

I told you they were around here

put that damn thing away nobody

Joe Listen to me this girl is sick she's gonna die we've got to get her to a hospital

the bridge is out we gotta

get her across to the mainland

What about yours

well use my boat no no we might need you

to pick her up but just be careful?

Everybody is Kate here

Okay

what's the cable

To trust

Now for this to work I gotta get out the soft part of the joint

we got to get his arm fully extended for that he's hurt

I am going with you Moody

right Charly get a couple of them lanterns up there

ready Yes sir?

No I need to get one more slack

When I give the word everybody on the back door so the bullets

Where is that flash thing of yours give it to me

one more chance we're gonna do this I choose something that works give me

back to poison

you brah stay back it's okay nothing there

let's do it
