  1. 2:23 Wait a minute, wait a minute. Hold on, hold on, hold on.
  2. 2:43 Just hold it a second, Lamb. Liz!
  3. 2:48 You hear me, girl?
  4. 2:53 What do you want now?
  5. 3:05 You're going to play that thing so loud? Why don't you come out like this first?
  6. 3:11 Oh, don't bother me. Please.
  7. 3:17 Someday I'm going to give that she-cat the weapon she's been asking for.
  8. 3:23 - Well, there ain't been a little bound to them. - Let's go, where's the pants around here?
  9. 3:28 I'll be back in a minute.
  10. 3:33 Any whoopings done back there, I'll lay a jug.
  11. 3:36 He'll be doing it. Come on now, Lamb, and tell us about that thing you killed out there at the swamp, will you? Yeah, Liv, let's hear the rest of that. Like I was singing, I put five slugs into that critter before it went under.
  12. 3:50 Don't call this thing I ever seen.
  13. 3:53 and regular arms on it like a man. It was sort of different looking. Had suckers on them.
  14. 4:01 Like one of them...
  15. 4:04 Like one of them octopuses things.
  16. 4:07 Oh, I was bum-off look.
  17. 4:09 Lim, you sure that critter wasn't clink?
  18. 4:12 Oh!
  19. 4:14 I told you before, it was sort of gray-looking.
  20. 4:20 You'll laugh if you want.
601 more segments
  1. 4:22 But that thing weren't nothing nature put out there.
  2. 4:25 Oh, sure. And it weren't no freak gator neither.
  3. 4:30 I've been poaching this country for 40 years, and I ain't never seen nothing like it.
  4. 4:35 Well, too bad you didn't bring it back. Steve Benton probably paid a fair bounty for him, whatever it was.
  5. 4:41 Follow me.
  6. 4:43 I wouldn't touch that critter for all the money ever made.
  7. 4:47 And if you'd seen it, you wouldn't either.
  8. 4:50 You better take it easy on this stuff. You're looking kind of pinkied.
  9. 4:54 No. I'm gonna clean my otter lines out before the morning.
  10. 5:00 Lemme, I think that Criller's a...
  11. 5:02 A ghost of one of those artists you've been poaching all these years, coming back to haunt you.
  12. 5:09 Well, if that's so...
  13. 5:11 You fellas will see it right quick yourselves.
  14. 5:16 Come in. Come in.
  15. 5:24 Oh, my boy. Come in.
  16. 5:55 Look.
  17. 5:56 It's not like I want to be mean or anything like that, Liz, baby.
  18. 6:00 I got a reputation around here.
  19. 6:02 These folks have no respect for a man who lets his woman boss him.
  20. 6:06 Well, next thing I know, they'll be laughing at me. And they'll be telling all the rest of the...
  21. 6:11 Won't you please listen to me, Liz, baby?
  22. 6:15 Liz?
  23. 6:47 Stop looking at me like that.
  24. 6:50 I'll look at you any way I want, you my wife.
  25. 6:54 Cool.
  26. 7:01 Touch me.
  27. 7:09 Who do you think you're talking to? Don't touch me. You're my wife. I'll touch you any time I feel like it.
  28. 7:21 Where are you going?
  29. 7:27 Where are you going?
  30. 7:30 I'm going out.
  31. 7:33 Maybe I'll be back.
  32. 7:34 Maybe I won't.
  33. 7:36 This baby. I don't mean nothing.
  34. 8:08 Well, there was a young one that last tropper had to kill it.
  35. 8:10 Oh, poor thing.
  36. 8:12 Told you you shouldn't have come along.
  37. 8:20 Well, I can understand honey and animal, but...
  38. 8:22 Making it suffer in those traps...
  39. 8:25 horrible
  40. 8:26 These poachers know the swamps like the back of their hands.
  41. 8:29 But I'll catch one of them in the act some night and put him away for six months.
  42. 8:33 In the meantime, I'll have to be satisfied confiscating their trap lines.
  43. 8:36 If you lose enough traps, it won't pay him to keep trying. Well, be careful, darling.
  44. 8:40 These people aren't like other folks.
  45. 8:42 They'll try and get back at you.
  46. 8:44 Let him try.
  47. 8:46 Steve, you're a stranger here.
  48. 8:47 They've lived this way for generations.
  49. 8:50 One man isn't going to change them overnight.
  50. 8:52 You're a real worry-worn.
  51. 8:54 I'm serious.
  52. 8:56 They can be dangerous.
  53. 8:57 Okay, I'll be careful.
  54. 9:00 You just stop worrying.
  55. 9:07 Oh, Steve, I love you.
  56. 9:10 *sigh*
  57. 9:11 I love you so much.
  58. 9:17 What was that? I don't know. You get in a truck and lock it up.
  59. 9:21 Help!
  60. 9:59 Listen, Benton.
  61. 10:01 The corner rule that Sawyer died by misadventures.
  62. 10:04 Now, as far as this officer's concerned, that's the end of it.
  63. 10:07 But Sheriff, I can't see why the... Look, if Lem was killed by anything human, I wouldn't need you to tell me my job.
  64. 10:13 But I'm not about to go tromping through the swamp looking for an overgrown gator.
  65. 10:17 so you wasn't killed by an alligator
  66. 10:19 Is that so?
  67. 10:21 Did you hear that, Morton?
  68. 10:22 Game Warden Benton says there wasn't a gator killing them.
  69. 10:26 Well, then, what was it?
  70. 10:27 You know so much. Go on, tell me. What killed him?
  71. 10:30 Doc Grayson said the wounds were the kind of squid or a large octopus might cause.
  72. 10:35 Oh, sure. And did Grayson explain how a saltwater creature happened to be 30 miles inland living in clear water?
  73. 10:41 Stranger things have happened. I know that... Look here, Ben.
  74. 10:44 You work for the state.
  75. 10:46 Now, why don't you keep your nose out of county business? Is that clear enough for you?
  76. 10:51 Oh, go soak your fat head.
  77. 10:57 What was that you said? I said, go soak your fat head.
  78. 11:06 Oh, that boy's looking for bad trouble.
  79. 11:10 And he's sure gonna get it.
  80. 11:12 You can bet on that.
  81. 11:23 So you see, the octopi uses its suction discs to hold its prey.
  82. 11:27 Now, in itself, the disc will not inflict a wound.
  83. 11:30 Same is true with a squid.
  84. 11:31 Now, both creatures have a parrot-like beak as their primary offensive and defensive weapon.
  85. 11:36 Well, maybe the sheriff was right, Dad.
  86. 11:40 Could be a freak or a malformed alligator.
  87. 11:43 No.
  88. 11:45 No, I'm afraid it wasn't.
  89. 11:48 Well, where does that leave us, Doc?
  90. 11:50 I wish I knew.
  91. 11:52 You know, I'm beginning to think Lem was telling the truth in Walker's store.
  92. 11:56 He did see something that night.
  93. 11:59 Something that had intelligence enough to seek him out and destroy him later.
  94. 12:03 But Sawyer claims to have killed the thing he saw. Put a half a dozen rifle bullets into it.
  95. 12:08 I've seen that old 4440 years. Nothing could live after being hit with those slugs.
  96. 12:12 Will?
  97. 12:14 Conceiving the possibility of one such creature
  98. 12:17 We must also concede the possibility of others.
  99. 12:22 Well, there's one sure way of finding out.
  100. 12:24 Go in and search every backwater, channel, and wet spot in the swamp.
  101. 12:29 If it's there, I'll find it.
  102. 13:17 Sure is bright around here.
  103. 13:23 Oh, my God.
  104. 13:27 - Mm.
  105. 13:28 Come on.
  106. 13:33 I'm going to go.
  107. 13:53 Did you hear something? Yes.
  108. 13:55 Okay.
  109. 13:59 Well, whatever it was, it's not here anymore. Oh.
  110. 14:04 Come on.
  111. 14:09 Do you want some coffee?
  112. 14:15 An army could hide in here and never be noticed.
  113. 14:18 One did.
  114. 14:19 What?
  115. 14:21 The Seminoles under Osceola in the 1830s.
  116. 14:24 Put the U.S. Army two years around the mountain.
  117. 14:27 I remember reading about Othiola in high school.
  118. 14:30 Two years.
  119. 14:33 You've only been out of two days and I feel worn out. Well...
  120. 14:37 Might as well keep on looking around.
  121. 15:10 Well, I guess we may as well give up today.
  122. 15:14 Okay.
  123. 15:45 Come on.
  124. 15:58 I'm asking you for the last time, Dave Walker.
  125. 16:02 You answer me, you dirty old man!
  126. 16:06 I ain't dirty, Liz, baby. Liz, baby. Liz, honey.
  127. 16:12 Can't you think of anything else safe, stupid? I've got to get this order over to Miss Chauvey. She's one of my better customers.
  128. 16:18 Can't keep a waitin'.
  129. 16:21 I love you, Liz, baby
  130. 16:25 Get out.
  131. 16:27 Get out, you fat pig!
  132. 16:45 You, um...
  133. 16:47 Have some trouble, Dave?
  134. 16:49 You don't live in Cal.
  135. 16:50 Gotta get the hair down every now and then.
  136. 16:53 You sure don't know an awful lot about females. I gotta hand it to you.
  137. 16:59 I can't stand here at John, Cal. Gotta get this order over to Miss Shovey.
  138. 17:05 What's she letting her hair down about this time? Well...
  139. 17:10 Ever since Lim got herself killed, she wants me to sell out and move into town.
  140. 17:15 Don't you let her bamboozle you, Dave. We keep her right here in the store.
  141. 17:20 After all, the place wouldn't be the same without you around.
  142. 17:25 Thanks, Cal. I'd better get going.
  143. 17:27 See when I get back.
  144. 17:29 Yeah, I'll be around.
  145. 17:31 Liz, baby.
  146. 17:50 It's Cal, honey.
  147. 18:01 You want something, Cal?
  148. 18:07 I sure do, honey.
  149. 18:09 Hmm.
  150. 18:09 I'll see you next time.
  151. 18:25 I...
  152. 18:26 Oh, I'm dead.
  153. 18:29 Me too.
  154. 18:31 Come on over here.
  155. 18:34 movies.
  156. 18:41 Well, that seems kind of silly knocking ourselves out looking for something we aren't even sure exists. What do you mean? What do you mean?
  157. 18:48 You know, we've covered miles with Back Channel and haven't come across anything to support your father's theory of an alien creature.
  158. 18:57 Not so much as a mud print we couldn't identify.
  159. 19:00 I know.
  160. 19:04 You're not gonna give up by, you see?
  161. 19:06 Well, I can't waste any more time on a wild goose chase.
  162. 19:11 Mm-hmm.
  163. 19:12 With all respect to your father's ideas.
  164. 19:17 Dad seems so sure.
  165. 19:25 I'm going to go ahead and get a little bit of a break.
  166. 19:59 Yes.
  167. 20:00 I reckon I haven't met a man like you before.
  168. 20:07 You really like me, Carol?
  169. 20:11 You kidding me?
  170. 20:13 No, I didn't hurt you now, did I?
  171. 20:16 You're just so strong.
  172. 20:20 Wow.
  173. 20:21 I like a minute strong.
  174. 20:23 Ha ha.
  175. 20:26 You sure picked a doozy then, man, Dave.
  176. 20:29 I don't think he's got a muscle in him.
  177. 20:32 Just a big piece of flab.
  178. 20:34 Oh, Hannah.
  179. 20:37 That doesn't mean anything against you.
  180. 20:40 Just that I can't see a...
  181. 20:43 A real woman like you, turning with a tub of lard like him.
  182. 20:50 You wouldn't understand, Cal.
  183. 20:53 You know, I... I've wanted to tell you.
  184. 20:58 He just wouldn't understand. He's trying to...
  185. 21:02 Come on, you tell old Carol about it.
  186. 21:12 You wouldn't think bad of me? Crazy.
  187. 21:17 He told me you killed your pa and your ma and your whole family.
  188. 21:21 I fight to protect you.
  189. 21:25 Come on.
  190. 21:56 *sweep*
  191. 21:56 *sad*
  192. 22:05 First husband was a no good bum.
  193. 22:09 Couldn't keep a job more than a week.
  194. 22:11 Used to get lusked up, come home beat up on me.
  195. 22:17 You must have been a prize pig.
  196. 22:20 - Yeah.
  197. 22:21 One night he tried to hold up a gas station. He was so drunk he couldn't even run.
  198. 22:27 We caught him less than a mile away.
  199. 22:30 That's all right.
  200. 22:34 I got a divorce.
  201. 22:37 It's rough.
  202. 22:40 After three years working in our lousy binary, I was ready for the first guy to say a nice word to me.
  203. 22:47 Miss Dave.
  204. 22:49 That's it.
  205. 22:50 I wish it had been me. I'd know how to take care of a woman like you, Liz. Maybe it ain't too late, Cal.
  206. 22:58 You're wrong, woman. It's too late for the both of you.
  207. 23:12 Get up.
  208. 23:15 Get up.
  209. 23:17 Now, look, Dave, I know what you're thinking, but... I got double large shot in this here thing.
  210. 23:24 You got two seconds before I pull the trigger.
  211. 23:30 No point getting riled, Dave.
  212. 23:33 What's a mouthful, Mike?
  213. 23:35 You've been testing me for months to take her out.
  214. 23:38 I sure have.
  215. 23:40 I understand.
  216. 23:42 Get her up so she'll get a better look at the line, little triumph.
  217. 23:45 Come on, get up.
  218. 23:48 Come on, get up. No, no. He killed me. He killed me.
  219. 23:53 Jump.
  220. 23:54 When your husband wants to take a look at you.
  221. 24:00 You, uh, you walk all the way, Dave? Dave?
  222. 24:03 One more step and I'll blow your plumbing too.
  223. 24:06 Get over there.
  224. 24:09 Now, David, it ain't as bad as you think. Shut up!
  225. 24:13 I am. What are you gonna do?
  226. 24:16 You'll find out soon enough.
  227. 24:20 Dave, you put down that gun before I get mad and make you eat it.
  228. 24:24 Go ahead and try it, Cal.
  229. 24:26 Go right ahead and try.
  230. 24:30 Oh!
  231. 24:32 I'm going to go.
  232. 24:42 Come on.
  233. 25:12 I can't go running, Mama.
  234. 25:45 Go on, run! Run till you drop!
  235. 26:12 I can't go on anymore. You've got to live in the front of me. You can't. You can't live in the front of me.
  236. 26:50 Come on. Keep going.
  237. 26:53 Babe!
  238. 26:54 Please, you gotta listen.
  239. 26:56 It wasn't my fault, honest.
  240. 26:58 She'd complain up to me every time you'd turn your back. It wasn't my fault.
  241. 27:02 You call yourself a man?
  242. 27:05 You and your muscles.
  243. 27:07 I'll kill you, champ!
  244. 27:09 If it wasn't you, I wouldn't be in this fix...
  245. 27:11 And my old friend Dee wouldn't be doing this thing to me.
  246. 27:14 Do your fault!
  247. 27:16 Don't!
  248. 27:18 Get going.
  249. 27:19 But Dave, Dave, we've been friends.
  250. 27:22 We've been friends a long time, Dave!
  251. 27:24 You wouldn't... you wouldn't kill an old friend, Dave!
  252. 27:28 If you don't move, I'll kill you where you stand. But, Dave!
  253. 27:34 Praise big man!
  254. 27:38 Dave!
  255. 27:40 I didn't mean to Dave! Dave, I didn't mean to!
  256. 27:45 Dave! Dave, the kid is out here!
  257. 27:50 Please, Dave! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! But, Dave!
  258. 28:00 I'm sorry, honey. I'm sorry, Dave. I'm sorry. I mean it.
  259. 28:08 Sorry.
  260. 28:13 You think you'll learn enough to stay away from a woman, Carol? Oh, anything, Dave. I'm only a fellow out of the county. I'll do anything you say, Dave. Anything. Anything.
  261. 28:26 All right.
  262. 28:27 Come on out of there.
  263. 28:30 It's dead. It's dead. It's in the head. How'd you go?
  264. 28:35 It's dead. Oh, my God.
  265. 28:39 Look out. Look out. Behind you.
  266. 28:53 Oh, my God.
  267. 28:59 Ain't nothing down here, Sheriff.
  268. 29:03 Well, I'm getting tired of this.
  269. 29:06 Come on in, boys.
  270. 29:12 Well, if there was any bodies out there, we'd have found them.
  271. 29:16 I want some straight answers, Walker.
  272. 29:18 And don't give me any more that crud about monsters either.
  273. 29:22 Amen.
  274. 29:23 Where'd you hide them after you killed them?
  275. 29:25 Peace.
  276. 29:27 I told you the truth, Sharon.
  277. 29:29 I didn't kill them.
  278. 29:32 I just wanted to scare them good.
  279. 29:36 I loved my legs.
  280. 29:39 I wouldn't do anything that harder.
  281. 29:42 I loved her.
  282. 29:43 Sure.
  283. 29:45 You loved her.
  284. 29:47 That's why you chased her through the swamp with a shotgun.
  285. 29:51 Come on, Walker.
  286. 29:52 Where'd they hide the bodies?
  287. 29:55 Won't you believe me?
  288. 29:56 with some...
  289. 29:57 Monsters, they... Take him out of here before I lose my temper.
  290. 30:03 My dear. My dear.
  291. 30:09 County pay a reward if someone finds a body share.
  292. 30:14 Fifty dollars.
  293. 30:17 Each.
  294. 30:20 Yeah.
  295. 30:21 You know, I never thought that of old Dave.
  296. 30:28 Of course, however, they knowed that Kyle and Liz had a hankering for each other.
  297. 30:31 Everybody but old Dave.
  298. 30:34 Darn fools.
  299. 30:36 grappling out there in the middle of the water.
  300. 30:39 If an embodies is still in there.
  301. 30:41 You can bet some old bull gator's got him stuffed in his cave under the bank...
  302. 30:46 Letting them ripen up for a few days.
  303. 30:50 Yeah, well...
  304. 30:52 What we need now is some long cypress poles to go in there and pull them gator caves.
  305. 31:12 I'm sorry, Doc. I can't do it.
  306. 31:15 I have to do it myself. Wouldn't want to have to arrest you, Doc, but I will if I find you near the preserve with any explosives.
  307. 31:21 Steve.
  308. 31:22 Sorry, Nan, that's the way it's gotta be.
  309. 31:25 He's right, man.
  310. 31:26 It's his job to protect wildlife.
  311. 31:28 What about human life?
  312. 31:31 Three people have been killed in that game preserve.
  313. 31:33 Doesn't that mean anything to you? Nan, try to understand. If I could be sure something in the swamp was responsible for those deaths...
  314. 31:40 I wouldn't hesitate a minute.
  315. 31:42 We've been together the last three days.
  316. 31:45 We didn't see a trace of anything unusual.
  317. 31:47 Not so much as a suggestion of any form of life unknown to us.
  318. 31:51 Steve?
  319. 31:52 something killed those people
  320. 31:54 All right. I'll admit so. Your death left a lot of questions unanswered.
  321. 31:58 But you can bet your bottom dollar the other two died from Dave Walker's shotgun.
  322. 32:02 Do you really believe that?
  323. 32:03 Figure it out, Nan. Walker admitted chasing his wife and Cal into the swamps after he found them together.
  324. 32:09 He shot them and he tried to place the blame on Sawyer's DTs.
  325. 32:13 If Sawyer told us things...
  326. 32:14 A purple girass with polka dot tails Walker would have claimed they did it.
  327. 32:19 There's one argument against that, Steve.
  328. 32:21 Dave Walker wasn't the kind of a man to hang himself, not even with two murder charges against him.
  329. 32:25 I talked with Dave less than an hour before he killed himself.
  330. 32:29 That man was in a state of shock.
  331. 32:31 I've seen frightened men before, terrified men.
  332. 32:34 But I've never seen anything to compare with the horror and the fear in Walker's eyes.
  333. 32:38 Well, he realized what he'd done and he killed two people.
  334. 32:41 One is white.
  335. 32:43 Oh, look, Doc, Nan and I were all over that swamp.
  336. 32:45 Why didn't these monsters attack us?
  337. 32:48 I've been thinking about that.
  338. 32:49 They're probably night creatures.
  339. 32:51 They can't stand the light. They stay down near the bottom during the day.
  340. 32:55 A small charge would stun him.
  341. 32:57 Bring them to the surface.
  342. 32:59 Can't buy it, Doc.
  343. 33:00 You're...
  344. 33:01 Pig-headed Steve Benton.
  345. 33:04 Stoggered and pig-headed.
  346. 33:06 You just don't understand, do you?
  347. 33:08 Oh.
  348. 33:16 Good night, Doc.
  349. 33:19 Oh, my God.
  350. 33:54 Right over there in them reeds.
  351. 34:12 Just can't figure old Dave out.
  352. 34:15 If you was caught like cow, what would you do?
  353. 34:19 I hadn't thought of that.
  354. 34:22 Right over there in them reeds is where that digging used to be.
  355. 34:26 Yeah.
  356. 34:27 What's some great catfish in that hole?
  357. 34:49 Boy.
  358. 34:50 This is sure a lot...
  359. 34:56 Right unseasonable.
  360. 35:00 Sure is funny.
  361. 35:02 Huh?
  362. 35:03 Don't you notice anything?
  363. 35:05 Oh, what?
  364. 35:06 We've been prodding around you all morning.
  365. 35:08 He'd run across a single gator.
  366. 35:11 Okay.
  367. 35:12 My righteousness.
  368. 35:13 This pool should be crawling with him.
  369. 35:17 Show funny.
  370. 35:18 Yeah, that is funny.
  371. 35:20 I don't like the looks of things.
  372. 35:22 Let's call it a date.
  373. 35:24 Well, now, wait a minute. We ain't pulled a gate of holes around the bin yet. You do what you want to do, boy.
  374. 35:29 Just get me on dry land. And right quick. All right. Now, ain't no use getting all head up.
  375. 35:34 Let's go.
  376. 35:38 We've got to quit drinking that moonshine. Yeah.
  377. 35:43 That's why this is wrinkled and ugly.
  378. 35:49 No way out here. It's a wild goose chase.
  379. 36:34 Oh, my God.
  380. 37:04 Oh!
  381. 37:40 We've been calling, but there's been no answer. Oh, I just got back. What seems to be the trouble?
  382. 37:45 Well, haven't you heard?
  383. 37:47 Old Sam Peters and Porky Reed have disappeared.
  384. 37:50 Come on inside.
  385. 37:57 You know, Colvis...
  386. 37:59 Nothing would please him more than to have all the swamp people disappear.
  387. 38:03 Swamp trash, he calls them.
  388. 38:05 I know.
  389. 38:06 They have about as much regard for him as he has for them.
  390. 38:10 When they're worried enough to go to him,
  391. 38:12 You know something's wrong.
  392. 38:14 Mrs. Reed said the men went searching for Cal and Mrs. Walker's bodies.
  393. 38:18 And I never returned.
  394. 38:20 Colbert says he'll get up a search party if they don't show up in a couple of days.
  395. 38:25 Doc, you and Nan take your car and get as many volunteers as you can.
  396. 38:29 Tell them to meet me at the old wagon road.
  397. 38:31 I'll call Doak Evans and have him bring his dogs.
  398. 38:35 Either they're lost or they've had an accident.
  399. 38:38 I hope to heaven you're right.
  400. 39:41 Oh.
  401. 39:42 Oh, my God.
  402. 40:04 Well, they picked up the scent, anyway.
  403. 40:06 Dad, do you think they'll find them?
  404. 40:10 Only the good Lord can answer that.
  405. 40:12 Oh, no!
  406. 40:28 Come on!
  407. 40:29 Well, at least we know they got this far.
  408. 40:32 All right, let's fit up into two parties and circle the lake.
  409. 40:35 Keep your eyes open. Let's move on.
  410. 41:05 All clear.
  411. 41:24 It's clear over here.
  412. 41:35 Come on.
  413. 42:05 I was keep going.
  414. 42:34 Well, we can't do anything more tonight. Might as well start back.
  415. 42:36 I reckon ain't no use hurrying now, Mr. Benton.
  416. 42:39 Reed and old Sam was alive.
  417. 42:41 They'd let us know him with a hollow or something.
  418. 42:44 Yeah, it kind of looks that way.
  419. 42:46 You fellas notice anything about this lake?
  420. 42:49 I mean, the gator.
  421. 42:50 What about him?
  422. 42:51 They ain't.
  423. 42:52 A piece of water this size usually has maybe 50, 60 big ones around.
  424. 42:57 A whole lot of little and...
  425. 42:59 It's real unnatural.
  426. 43:01 Well, maybe our torches scared them away.
  427. 43:03 Nothing scares gators.
  428. 43:05 and nothing.
  429. 43:06 Animal or human.
  430. 43:10 Well, we might as well get out of here.
  431. 43:22 You got something in mind, Steve?
  432. 43:24 I keep thinking what Evans said about the Gators.
  433. 43:28 Nothing scares an animal or a human.
  434. 43:31 And yet something made them leave. Maybe a...
  435. 43:33 Maybe a mineral contamination.
  436. 43:36 Guess I better run some water samples.
  437. 43:38 Come on, you two, drink your coffee.
  438. 43:41 And supposing there is no contamination?
  439. 43:45 Then I'll send over to Eastport for...
  440. 43:47 diving rig and go down to look for this monster of yours. No, Steve, don't even joke like that.
  441. 43:52 I'm not joking man. I had some training with an aqualung while I was in the Navy, but Steve I
  442. 43:57 Look...
  443. 43:58 There are two bodies we know for sure down there. Maybe four.
  444. 44:01 They've got to be brought up.
  445. 44:02 Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
  446. 44:04 There are no alligators in that part of the swamp, right?
  447. 44:06 So...
  448. 44:07 No sign of any fish or snakes?
  449. 44:10 No.
  450. 44:11 What are you getting at, Doc?
  451. 44:13 Well, that goes to argument about setting off a dynamite charge underwater.
  452. 44:17 He'd bring the bodies to the surface.
  453. 44:19 Get it out of your mind, Doc. I'm not using any explosives as long as there's another way.
  454. 44:24 Why must you be such a... Stubborn pig head?
  455. 44:27 Exactly.
  456. 44:28 I'll tell you why.
  457. 44:30 Number one, there's bound to be some Aquarian life in that section, even if the bigger forms have abandonment.
  458. 44:35 Explosion underwater would destroy every living thing and wreck what nature took years to build up.
  459. 44:41 Number two, I'm paid to prevent the useless slaughter of wildlife.
  460. 44:45 Number three, I'd have to get authorization.
  461. 44:48 To get that authorization, I'd have to come up with a heck of a good reason.
  462. 44:52 Satisfied?
  463. 44:55 Finish up, Dad. I want to go home.
  464. 44:58 Uh, Steve, uh...
  465. 45:00 How long will it take to get this diving equipment from East Park?
  466. 45:03 A couple days, why?
  467. 45:07 Oh, nothing.
  468. 45:11 Take care of yourselves, Steve.
  469. 45:20 Well, he's hoping. Dad.
  470. 45:23 Can't you throw the dynamite in from here?
  471. 45:25 No, I want to get it out in the middle.
  472. 45:27 In the deepest part.
  473. 45:29 All right.
  474. 45:59 Stop!
  475. 46:33 Come on.
  476. 46:54 Let you go any minute.
  477. 47:51 I just can't figure it out.
  478. 47:56 Walker's wife, why didn't her body come to the surface?
  479. 47:59 I don't know.
  480. 48:03 I think I better walk over to the coroner's office.
  481. 48:06 It's a mannerist Tibetan.
  482. 48:08 You feel awkward about arresting my father in his own home?
  483. 48:11 I warned him I'd arrest him if he used dynamite.
  484. 48:14 It's nice of you.
  485. 48:17 Well, the autopsy should be over by now.
  486. 48:22 Oh, Steve.
  487. 48:24 I thought you'd be here.
  488. 48:26 I don't like to have to do this, Doctor.
  489. 48:29 Do we have time for a cup of coffee first?
  490. 48:32 Sure.
  491. 48:33 You mind, honey?
  492. 48:34 No, I'll make some sandwiches.
  493. 48:46 One thing is certain, for all the good it'll do now.
  494. 48:51 Dave Walker didn't shoot Cal.
  495. 48:55 I just come from the autopsies.
  496. 48:58 Hoover's tried to keep me out.
  497. 49:00 I told him I'd raise a stink they'd smell all the way to the Capitol if he did.
  498. 49:04 Well, what killed them, Doc?
  499. 49:06 Not drowning.
  500. 49:08 And Carol wasn't shot either.
  501. 49:11 Every drop of blood was drained out of their bodies.
  502. 49:15 and they had wounds on their throats.
  503. 49:17 Suction wounds.
  504. 49:20 Like a gigantic leech might make.
  505. 49:22 And there's something even more incredible.
  506. 49:25 Now, Cal was supposed to have been killed...
  507. 49:27 Several days ago.
  508. 49:28 Sam and Reed have been missing a matter of 48 hours.
  509. 49:32 All three of them, as far as we know, are in that lake, uh...
  510. 49:35 A minimum of two days.
  511. 49:37 Now, I'd stake my reputation as a doctor.
  512. 49:40 that Cal hadn't been dead more than two or three hours when we found him.
  513. 49:43 And the other two less than that.
  514. 49:46 First stage, rigor mortis started in during the autopsy.
  515. 49:49 But how could that be, Doc? It's impossible.
  516. 49:52 The coroner will confirm it.
  517. 49:54 Whatever killed them is still in that lake.
  518. 49:56 And it's going to take more than dynamite to get it out.
  519. 50:01 Concussion from those charges would have killed a full-grown whale.
  520. 50:06 That explains how Cal and the others lived after they were supposed to be drowned.
  521. 50:11 What do you mean?
  522. 50:12 Well, this whole region is riddled by caves and caverns cut out by the ocean thousands of years ago.
  523. 50:18 If there are caves above the water, then there must be caves under the water.
  524. 50:22 Go on.
  525. 50:24 Mike and I had a chance to pull around with some frogman equipment captured from the Italian Navy.
  526. 50:30 sort of prowled through a sunken transport off Salerno.
  527. 50:34 When the ship went down, it trapped some air inside the hull.
  528. 50:38 We'd go down, come up inside the officer's lounge, take off her face mask, and...
  529. 50:42 Sort of sample some of the bottles floating around.
  530. 50:45 We drive the guys crazy trying to figure out how we were getting the stuff.
  531. 50:50 You mean you think that there's an ale pocket or a cave underneath a lake? Right, got to be. How else could those people have lived down there?
  532. 50:57 Not only that explains how whatever it is down there lived through the concussions...
  533. 51:01 Steve.
  534. 51:04 Liz Walker.
  535. 51:06 She might still be down there.
  536. 51:09 Alive.
  537. 51:57 Come on.
  538. 52:07 Comfortable? Yeah. Comfortable?
  539. 52:10 You sure you don't want me to go out for you, Mike?
  540. 52:12 You haven't had one of these things on for a long time. Well, me, every other day, I've been playing fish.
  541. 52:17 for the movie.
  542. 52:18 Not this time, Mike.
  543. 52:20 If you ask me, they ought to have their heads examined.
  544. 52:24 Giant leeches.
  545. 52:27 Well...
  546. 52:27 I'm willing to bet a month's pay I don't come up with nothing more than excuses.
  547. 52:32 He's crazy.
  548. 52:33 Him, the Doc, and his brat, too.
  549. 52:36 Just wait till I get on the phone to the Capitol.
  550. 52:39 I'll guarantee somebody will wish they'd kept their nose out of other people's business.
  551. 52:43 I'll guarantee that.
  552. 52:48 Let's go, Mike.
  553. 52:50 Look.
  554. 52:52 Hold.
  555. 52:53 Yes.
  556. 52:56 Be careful, please.
  557. 52:58 Don't worry. Mike will be ready if anything goes wrong. Don't worry about Steve.
  558. 53:01 Now, if you were going after Barracuda, you might have a tiny bit to worry about.
  559. 53:06 Ready, Mike?
  560. 53:10 Come on.
  561. 53:53 No, no, please stay away.
  562. 53:57 Please.
  563. 54:00 Not exactly inviting, is it?
  564. 54:03 That sure isn't.
  565. 54:06 Hold it steady, Mike.
  566. 54:08 Okay.
  567. 54:28 It'll stop anything up to a tiger shark. But you gotta hit. And this is don't count. Now, anything goes wrong, just yank on the line. I'll be down in the herd.
  568. 55:19 Come on.
  569. 56:08 You sure you don't want me to go down and finish it off for you, Steve?
  570. 56:12 I think I heard it pretty bad.
  571. 56:15 Careful now. Anything hurts ten times as dangerous.
  572. 56:23 He's wounded us!
  573. 56:24 He's gonna finish it off!
  574. 56:27 Does he have to go under again?
  575. 56:29 He's got to make sure, honey.
  576. 56:33 Where could it have come from?
  577. 56:35 I wish I knew.
  578. 56:37 We'll have to make some tests.
  579. 56:39 Maybe the proximity of Cape Canaveral's got something to do with it.
  580. 56:42 The rocket station? Well, they use atomic energy in their first stages of launching.
  581. 56:47 Not all of them have been successful.
  582. 56:49 You think that if some animal life was close by, not close enough to be killed, but...
  583. 56:53 Close enough to feel the effects of a radioactive energy that's... A mutation.
  584. 56:58 A type of gigantism of some common animal.
  585. 57:01 Whatever it is.
  586. 57:04 I hope he's able to bring it up.
  587. 57:13 I'm sorry.
  588. 57:43 That can't be Liz.
  589. 58:13 What could have done that? Look at her face.
  590. 58:43 Come on.
  591. 59:13 Look at that, Mike.
  592. 59:43 I've been around here for years. I never saw nothing like that.
  593. 1:00:53 There was no sign of them this time.
  594. 1:00:55 They must be licking their wounds.
  595. 1:00:57 Sure used enough stuff to do the job, Mike? I used 106 or 40%.
  596. 1:01:02 ought to blow the bottom right out.
  597. 1:01:04 All right, let her go.
  598. 1:01:05 Oh, no.
  599. 1:01:06 I've done enough of your dirty work.
  600. 1:01:08 Help yourself.
  601. 1:01:17 I'm going to go.
