They Crawl Beneath (2022) - full transcript

Mom?

Where are you going?

There.
It's in the pantry.

- There's nothing here, Mom.
- There was.

Mom, stop, there is
nothing here right now.

I saw it.
It was... it was big.

Mom, calm down, okay?

Whatever was here,
it's not here now.

Why don't you ever listen to me?

Mom, listen, I need
to talk to you, okay?

Our last conversation...



Yeah, I'm 97.
Code four, cancel my back.

You need to apologize.

- I told you.
- Ssh!

See?

See, I told you.

Mom!

Mom! Aah! Mom!

Bill, you okay?

- Hello?
- Gwen.

Danny, what's going on?

- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

The quake wasn't too bad here.

Thanks for checking in,
but look, I gotta go.

Wait a second, Gwen.
Can't we talk?



I wanted to talk months ago.
It's three in the morning.

I can't do this.

Okay, well, what about tomorrow?

Do you mind stopping by, please?

- Good night, Danny.
- Wait, Gwen.

Is there...

is there somebody there?

No, there isn't.

I'll see if I can make it
out there tomorrow,

but... no promises.

Good night.

Heard you barking in here.

Yeah, sorry.

- You feel the quake?
- Yeah.

Take more than that
to shake me up.

Hope you don't mind.

Knock yourself out.

...just a few
minutes ago and immediately

pulled over, realizing
what was happening.

We are currently on Highway 22

just outside of Barstow.

Early reports say
that the quake was

approximately 6.4
in magnitude,

with the epicenter here
in the Barstow

Salt Flats region,

We have yet
to confirm this, Jim.

Aftershocks are a certainty

for quakes of this size,
so I would expect

a number of size able
aftershocks to follow.

We will continue
to track these details

and questions
throughout this morning

and for the rest of the day.

The other concern would be
that this could be

a foreshock to something larger.

Only time will tell.
Back to you, Jim.

You should really
get this thing fixed.

Why? It's not broken.

It's the definition of broken.

Ow!

What happened?
You all right?

Something bit me.

Damn thing broke my skin.

What, this little guy?

Hey, I'm telling you,
this sucker's mean.

- Looks like you got him.
- Yeah, he got me too.

What are you doing with that?

I think I know someone
who might want to see this.

- Looks like trout bait to me.
- Whoa.

I'd better make myself scarce.

Yeah.

Wish Happy Turkey Day
to the little lady for me.

Will do.

I'm here.

- What is that?
- Oh, uh...

I have no idea,
but Bill says it bit him.

I thought you would think
it was interesting.

I'm studying anthropology,
not entomology.

Right, and the difference is?

What do you want?

I don't know, Gwen, you know,

it's a holiday,
and I just thought...

I thought we could be together.

We're not together,

and I came to talk to you
about something specific.

So unless you've
changed your mind,

- I'm... I'm gonna go.
- Wait, hold on a second.

Listen, I thought
about what you said.

And, Gwen, I'm a cop
for a good reason.

All right?
It's to help people.

I don't know
why you don't understand that.

To protect and serve...
In today's world,

that's really
what you're selling me.

Why not?
If it's the truth.

So, what, are you two
actually gonna cook a turkey

or just drink yourselves stupid?

Well, there is such a thing

as multitasking.

Hey, look, he's my family.

- Yeah.
- All right?

Mm-hmm, he's your family,

your family that got
so drunk last Christmas

that he insulted me,
made a pass at your mom,

and then threw up
all over the kitchen floor.

Well...

can't say he doesn't
know how to party.

Can you be serious
for one second?

Look, Bill's an asshole.

And I know that you know that,

but you constantly defending him

says way more about you
than it does about him.

Wait, what the hell is
that supposed to mean?

It means maybe you need
to look at yourself

in the mirror
and decide if this is

the person that you wanna be.

I'm taking this.

Wait, Gwen!

Hey, Gwen, hold on a second.

Danny, I got to go.

Okay.

- Well...
- I'm late.

All right, well...

sorry, I'll see you later.

Come on, man.

- What do you think?
- I'm impressed, Bill.

Been working on it
for about a month now.

Tranny leaks oil,
it needs a new battery but...

Needs some body work.

Oh, and you are

definitely gonna need
a new axle back here.

Why do you think
I invited you, kid?

But you got to admit...

she's awfully easy on the eye.

Oh, yeah, she's a beauty.

You know,
we get this running again,

we take it up the coast.

Maybe go through
the canyon like I used to do

- with your old man.
- That's the deal.

You know, this would be
a hell of a lot easier

- if you had a lift.
- We'll make do

with what we have.

Are you sure
you don't know somebody

with some better equipment
or literally

anyone else who can
help us out here?

Self-sufficiency, my boy,
self-sufficiency.

You gotta get her
higher than that.

Come on,
look how high the jack is.

So, what are you thinking?

I believe this could be
a new species of nematode.

It's very exciting.

Sorry, my biology is
a little rusty.

- What's a nematode?
- A worm, essentially.

Ordinarily harmless.

This particular specimen is
unusually large

and possesses some
very aggressive features.

He did say it was mean.

This bump
on its tail is curious.

I've never seen anything
like it before.

You said they found it
on the surface?

Yeah, that's what they said.

We typically discover

new species
of nematode underground,

since they're
perhaps more capable

than any other animal
withstanding

- extreme conditions.
- And you said this one's

- larger than normal?
- It's enormous.

Nematodes typically
live deep underground

and can survive at
extremely high temperatures,

so they're often tiny,
even microscopic.

- Ordinarily.
- So, what do you think

accounts for the size?

Perhaps the salinity
of the soil?

Certain species of nematode need

a constant supply
of salt water to survive.

Actually, I think
I can do a saline test

to determine what...

what?

What's happening?

Wait, I thought it was dead.

Looks like it's molted.

What does that mean?

It's getting bigger.

All right.

All set.

Yeah, first things first,
we just need to get

these tires off.

- Knock yourself out.
- Thank you.

Cash!

Calm down, Cash.
What's the matter with you?

Cash, get over here.
Come on.

I gotta go in here a minute.

You stay, I'll be right back.

Ed, what the hell's going on?

Hey, Bill.

My stupid dog over there
is acting like

it's the goddamn
end of the world.

Cash!

Hey, Danny!

Anything new on the scanner?

Morning to you too, Ed.

I'm surprised
you didn't get called in.

No, I drew that
short straw last year.

Well, if that quake
last night was

any foreshock of the big one,

we're all up the creek.

Ooh, the big one.

Yeah, we consider
ourselves warned.

Ed, you want me
to feed Cash later?

No, thanks.
I'll be back tonight.

I'm just off to see
Dolores and the kids.

Hey, maybe you could bring
back a couple of slices

of that pumpkin pie for us.

Oh, yeah, pecan for me.

Ask, and you shall receive.

Thanks, Ed.

Okay, come on.

What is wrong with you?
Back to our yard.

Cash!

Hey, never too early
for one of these.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Never is.

Don't work too late, Doctor Wu.

I'll try not to, thank you.

Happy Holidays.

Hey, this is Gwen.

Leave a message.

Miss Bishop, I have
a very important development.

The test results came back

for the specimen you brought in,

and the toxicity level
of the venom

is off the chart.
If you were bitten or stung

by this creature,
you have two to three hours

before it causes severe
neurological damage

or even death.

If your friend
or anyone has been

bitten or stung, they must get

to the hospital immediately

and ask them to administer

antivenin crotalidae polyvalent.

You must hurry.

Aah!

Hey, Danny.

Did I ever show you this beauty?

- What?
- It's an 1870 Colt.

Cost me about 2,000 bucks.

Oh yeah, that's the...

- the Jonesy...
- The Josey Wales.

Yeah, I remember that.

Yeah, your dad and I were
gonna get a pair of these

and go shootin'.
Hell of a lot nicer

than that soulless
standard issue

hunk of lead
that you're packing.

Yeah, well, I've only
had to discharge

my firearm on duty once,

but I'm sure as hell glad
I had something reliable

and not an antique like that.

Hey, if this is
an antique, so am I.

All right, now you're starting
to remind me of Holder.

All right, tag me out.

Take a look.

Actually, this thing is
pretty badass.

Are you kidding me?
Look around.

I got my priorities straight.

You wanna take it for a spin?

I got cardboard
targets out back,

got ammo in the drawer.

- No shit?
- Give it a shot.

Don't shoot Cash.

Yo, Danny.
Give me a rag.

- Hey, Danny.
- Huh?

You gonna give me a rag or what?

Oh, yeah, sorry.

- What's that?
- Oh, it's just a missed call.

Is that her again?

That little talk you had
didn't exactly go

the way you wanted.

So, what happened?
She find someone else.

No, she said something about us

going in separate
directions or some shit.

Hm, that's a classic line.

I don't know,
she's probably right.

She's pissed at you, though.

That's not exactly news.

I don't know.
She's just different, man.

Everything is different
ever since the close call

back in September
with the... you know.

- The robbery, yeah?
- Yeah, like it was my fault

that that perp took
a shot at me.

Sounds ungrateful.

I mean, I get it, right?
I was scared too.

I don't know.

On the other hand,
Dad was a cop,

and look what happened to him.

Your father was a hero.

He died in the line of duty,

and I hope that
she would be proud

if that's the way you went out.

She wants a family, I...

I'm just not so sure
it's with me.

I'm very sorry, Danny.

So you gonna call her?

Later. I'm gonna go
grab a scanner.

Wait a minute,
why would you wanna do that?

You're just gonna hear
something that

makes you think
you should go in.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Aah!

Another one.

Bill? You all right?

Damn bugs, man.

- Still bothering you?
- Danny,

everything
bothers me, all right?

249, stoplight out
on Franzen and Elm.

Requesting officer
to direct traffic.

Danny, we got work to do here.

Ten-four, dispatch,
en route, on the way.

You see?
You worry too much, kid.

Yeah.

All right, I'm coming in.

I'll get this one over here.

No, it's... it's just...

- Whoa.
- Whoa.

It's another quake!

Whoa... hey, Bill!

- Oh!
- Bill, get out of there!

Bill!

I gotta tell you something...

Oh, yeah? What?

Officer Moritz.

Stay safe this mission.

- I love you.
- I love you.

Ahh, okay...

Oh, God...
looks like...

- twenty minutes, tops.
- Twenty minutes?

Jesus!

Oh... Bill.

Bill.

Bill, wake up.

Oh... Bill, I'm hurt.

Uncle Bill.

Bill.

Bill... wake up, Bill.

Uncle Bill, wake up.

Bill, wake up...

Oh... Jesus.

Oh, God, Bill.

Oh, God...

Okay, Danny.

One thing at a time.

Aah!

Somebody help me!

Somebody help me, please!

Help! Help!

Come on, come on.

Damn it!

We're sorry.
All circuits are busy.

Please try again later.

We're sorry.
All circuits are busy.

Please try again later.

Shit...

Come on, come on,
please-please-please,

please, please...
please pick up.

- Please pick up.
- Hello?

- Mom!
- Danny?

Mom, can you hear me? Aah!

Is that you?
Can you hear me?

Mom, are you okay?

I can't hear you.
I'm fine.

We have a bad connection.

- Mom, Mom, listen to me.
- Where are you?

Okay? I'm at Bill's,
all right?

- I'm trapped.
- What?

My battery's dying.
I only have a few seconds.

Mom, listen to me.

I need you to call Holder.

Okay? Call Holder, Mom?

Mom? Mom?

Can you hear me? Listen,
If you can hear me,

call Holder.

Shit.

Danny, I took the worm
you found to Doctor Wu

here at the university,
and she said it's way bigger

than it's supposed to be,
and, look, their venom is

extremely toxic.
It can cause hallucinations,

and, in high enough amounts,
can lead to death.

Look, I don't understand it all,

but if Bill was bitten,
you need to take him

to the hospital right away.

Do not waste any more time

in that garage, you need
to go to the hospital.

Aah... shit!

God...

Shit.

Hello?

Hello?

Okay, okay.

Cash...

Cash, is that you?

Cash?

Officer Moritz?

Anybody home?

L23, any contact
with Officer Moritz?

Ten-97, on scene checking now.

Ten-four, L23.

Hello? Danny?

Everybody okay in there?

Danny!

Danny Moritz!

Officer Moritz!

L23, do you have contact

with Officer Moritz?

That's a negative,
nobody's home out here.

Ten-four.

Head to city center, 23.

Fire admitted that they
received what they could get.

Copy that, on my way.

Danny?

Hello? Danny?

Hey, hey!

Hey! I'm here, hey!

Hey! Hey,
don't leave me!

I'm here! Hey!

Got an officer down!
Help me, hey!

Oh...

Shit.

Dad... Dad's birthday.

Fuck, come on,
help me out here, Bill.

Oh.

What is it?

What's your password, Bill?

Come on, Bill, help me out.

Oh, fuck.

Okay.

Aah...

come on, Bill,
I know you got 'em.

Yes.

Aah!

Come on.

Come here.

Oh, that's so good.

Mom?

What the f...

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah...

- Any suggestions?
- ...another

cell tower down
at Maple and Hudson.

Copy that. Holder here.

Did you say
a cell tower, dispatch?

- Affirmative.
- Sure, Elaine.

Sure glad you told me that...
Meanwhile, I got buildings

on fire all up and down the 62,

widespread civilian
casualties, and a crack

in the ground the size
of Bigfoot's ass.

How about you tell
the nice people if they're

so worried about
their cell phone service,

they can write a letter
to their goddamn...

Aah!

Roger that.

All units, respond
in the vicinity

of Maple and Hudson.

Come on, Holder...
Ask where I am!

Where am I at? Come on, man,
something is wrong.

Dispatch, have you
been able to contact

Officer Moritz yet?

Yes, that's
what I'm talking about.

Come on, baby, I'm here!

Try his uncle's phone
and his mom's.

Yes!
Yeah... aah!

...any other officers
out there that you have

not been able to get
a hold of yet,

kindly get them off their asses.

We need all the help we can get.

Yes!
Yes... aah!

Aah!

Get away from him!

Hah! You don't like
the light, do ya?

Come on, Danny.

Where did I put the jack?
Where did I put it?

There you are.

Ahh, come on, come on,
think, Danny, think.

Aah!

Come on, come on...
come on, come on...

Damn it!

Come on, come on...

Okay.

Aah!

Eat this,

you squirmy piece of shit!

Aah!

Oh...

Can we stop with the shaking?!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah.

That's not good.

I... oh,
I am definitely...

hallucinating.

I don't suppose you wanna
give me your password,

do you, Bill?

Oh, you never helped...

anybody a day in your life,
you selfish prick.

I don't know why you would
help me now, huh?

You didn't talk
to my mom for a year.

You can hate her if you want to.

Wait a second...

Bill, why do you hate her
so much, huh? Hmm?

What is this, Bill, hmm?

What is this, Bill?

Answer me, Bill.

Did you have something...

going on
with my mom? Hmm?

Did my dad know? Huh?

Hey! Help me!

Hey! Help me!
I'm in here! Help me!

Why didn't you
tell me, Bill, hmm?

Why didn't any...

any of you... tell me?

Why don't you ever listen to me?

Mom, listen,
I need to talk to you...

Your father was a hero.

It means maybe
you need to look at yourself

in the mirror and decide
if this is the person

- you want to be.
- Sounds ungrateful.

Or we're not together.

Danny.

Gwen, don't start.

No... no, this is exactly
why you need to make a choice.

I do not want our kids
to grow up like this.

I did what I had to do, Gwen.

- You know that.
- What you had to do... no.

What you have to do
is stay alive.

For me and for us,
and not take unnecessary risks

like you just did
with that robbery.

Gwen, what, do you think
I wanted to get shot?

No... I just...

I wanna make sure
that you wanna be here.

It just seems like
you have a death wish,

like, what, do you wanna be
like your Uncle Bill?

I can't believe you'd say that.

That's how I feel.

Five-thirty-two,

you're assigned...

I gotta go.

Danny?
Danny, no.

Danny, please don't go... Danny!

- Mom.
- Danny?

Yeah, yeah, it's me.

What are you doing
on Bill's phone?

I've been trying
to reach you all day.

- I can't see you.
- My phone died, Mom.

Listen to me, okay?
I don't have much time.

All right?
This phone is running low.

Please tell Gwen to call me.
I can't call out,

but I can get calls
on this phone

so you have to tell Gwen
to call me immediately.

- Honey, what's going on?
- I'm at Bill's garage.

- I'm trapped.
- You're where?

I'm trapped, Mom,
my leg's busted.

- I'm coming over.
- No, no, no.

You're too far away.

I feel like I'm gonna pass out.

- Danny?
- Get Gwen to call me

as soon as possible,
all right? Say it, Mom.

I need you to say it out loud.

I will.
I will call Gwen

and have her call you
as soon as I hang up.

Bill's phone, all right?
And have her bring help.

All right.
Just stay calm, Danny.

- Mom, wait.
- I'm... still here, honey.

I know about you and Bill.

Me and Bill? What?

Something between you
and Bill, wasn't there?

Did Dad know?

- Honey...
- Did Dad know?

What did Bill tell you?
What did he tell you?

Why don't you tell me?

I'll kill him.

- It's too late.
- What?

The earthquake...
We were working on the car,

and it...

- it fell down.
- Oh, my God.

Oh, Bill.

This battery is
running low, Mom.

Okay, I did know Bill first.

And after I got pregnant...

well, you know the way Bill is.

He just got up and left one day,

and he never came back.

And your father,
being the responsible one,

he just didn't want me to...

- To what?
- Raise a child alone.

So... Bill's my...

Years later when Bill came back

from whatever hole he was in...

me and your father were
already married,

and you were already
a few years old,

and we thought this was
the best for everyone.

And we vowed just
to never talk about it.

So that's why it was so weird.

That's why he didn't
come around.

I'm so sorry, honey.
I really am.

And yes, Dad knew,

and he loved you very much.

And that's all that matters,
and I'm so sorry, Danny.

I really am really sorry.

- Tell Gwen to call me, Mom.
- I will.

- Aah!
- And... I'm so sorry.

That you have to go
through all this.

I love you, Danny.

Call Gwen.

This is it, isn't it, Danny Boy?

Shut up.

Well, what are you gonna do?

You gonna fight him off

with your bare hands, Danny?

Shut up.

I liked it better
when you didn't talk.

You still haven't learned

anything about me.

Have you, son?

I'm not your son.

You didn't raise me.

Yes, you are.

What's your plan,
Danny Boy, huh?

I'm not dying,
you lying piece of shit.

What's your plan?

I could be anywhere but here.
Having Thanksgiving

with my mom or Gwen.

Instead, I had to be a dipshit.

I thought you were
this cool badass uncle.

But you're just a coward.

What's your plan, Danny?

I'm not going out like this.

You wanna mess with me?

Bring it!
I'll send you back

to whatever hell
you crawled out of.

There you are.

Aah!

Aah!

My turn.

Ugh!

Holy shit.

Aah!

- Gwen?
- Danny?

Oh, God, you have
no idea how good it is

to hear your voice right now.

Where the hell are you?
Your mom just called me.

I'm trapped in Bill's garage.

They said nobody was there.

I've been in and out
of consciousness all day.

I should have gone there
myself, I knew it.

I don't hear.

Bill needs
to get treated right away.

- Bill's dead.
- What?

Oh, my God.

Yeah, and these things
are crazy big,

and they got a goddamn
grudge against me.

Are you talking about the worms?

How big are we talking?

About the size
of a goddamn python.

Okay, Doctor Wu said
that salt water

can make them grow,
and, Danny, they're venomous.

Oh, yeah?

Have you been bitten?

Yep.

About an hour ago.

Okay, just stay calm.

We need you to keep
your BPMs as low as possible,

and whatever you do,
keep your wound

below the level of your heart.

Okay, I can do that.

Dr. Wu said
she can make an antivenom,

but it's gonna take
a couple days.

Hey, Gwen,
what's gonna happen to me?

You're gonna fight this.

I'm coming for you right now.

Just stay calm, we're gonna
get you out of there.

Uh, and Danny...

Yeah.

I'm pregnant.

Oh, my God, Gwen.

I'm sorry, I wanted
to tell you sooner.

I just... I just
needed you to know.

Okay, Gwen, listen to me.

I want to live.

For you.
And our baby.

You will.

Aah!

Now, where are those bullets?

- Holder.
- Hey, it's Gwen, look,

I've been trying to get
a hold of you, I found Danny.

He's been at Bill's
this whole time.

That doesn't make any sense.

I know, he's trapped
inside the garage.

- Trapped?
- I can't explain right now,

but he has less
than an hour to live.

- Shit, an hour?
- It's really serious.

He does not have a lot of time.

- Roger that.
- Okay,

I'm on the way
to the station, okay?

I'll be there in, like,
five minutes.

Look, you don't have
to come down here.

Are you crazy?
I'm coming, Holder!

- Okay, okay.
- Hurry!

Danny Boy.

Stop.

Take it easy there.

Come on, son.

- It's just me.
- No, you died.

No.

Move the hell out of the way.

I can't do that, sorry.

Can't do that?

A lot of things
you can't do, huh?

Like take responsibility
for anyone? "Fuck us"?

Now move the hell
out of the way.

Or what?

Come on.

Good or bad,

you know
I'm your real father, Danny.

No.

My father was a great man.

He actually raised me,
not like you.

You taught me
nothing but bullshit.

- You abandoned me.
- So what if I did?

Look at you now, Danny.

You're out of ammo, Danny.

Try me.

What's your plan?

What's your plan, Danny Boy?

Danny Boy?
What's your plan?

Shut up, shut up...

- Shut the...
- Exactly.

This is where it ends.

Not for me.

Aah... Jesus Christ!

Aah!

Aah!

Keys, keys, keys, keys...

Come on... no!
Where are the keys?

Yes.

All right...

Come on...

come on!

Christ, how many of you
are there?

Okay, okay, how am I gonna
get out of here?

Come on, think!
Think, Danny!

Think...

wait a second...

wouldn't open.
Why wouldn't it open?

Oh... that's
what's blocking it.

Come on...

Shit.

Okay, okay...

Yeah... yeah, okay.

Okay... okay.

I am getting out of here.

I need you to roll
two officers to Avenue A,

just west of Route 45,

and get me an ambulance now!

If anything happens to him,
I'm never gonna

- forgive myself.
- I need you to stay positive.

We don't have time to hold on!

Loo, it ends right there.

We can get around it.
Let's get back in the car.

Can this thing drive

No-no-no, no, no, don't go out.

Don't go out.

Dispatch, this is Holder.

Where the hell is my ambulance?

I need it here stat!

They're coming
out of the ground.

Bill... Bill...

That's not good, we need
to get him to a hospital

- right away.
- Hey, buddy.

It's okay, you made it.

Listen to me.

- Ssh.
- I don't need to be a cop.

Please...
okay, Danny...

- I just wanna be with you.
- No, you're gonna be a cop

'cause you're a damn good cop,

and I'm sorry for
ever questioning that.

Just stay with me, Danny, okay?

Danny, please,

don't fade... don't fade
on me, Danny, please,

we're almost there,
Danny, please, Danny!

For me and the baby, please.

I'm right here... please, don't.

Pulse is weak,
BPM is 70 over 50.

- O2 levels dropping
- Okay, everybody.

- Stay with me... Danny!
- Okay, what do we got?

Thirty-year-old male,
possible envenomation.

We got a contusion
on the left leg.

A bite on the right leg
and right shoulder.

Any neurological symptoms?
Trouble breathing?

He has numbness
in the legs and arms.

Danny, Danny, Danny.
Can you hear me?

Whoa, this is not a snake bite.

- No, it's not a snake.
- Okay, then what is it?

- What am I looking at here?
- It's like some nematode

creature, but he said
it's the size of a python.

Eyes are dilated,
severe swelling

- in the lower extremity.
- I need to know exactly

what bit him, or I'm not
gonna know how to treat him.

Doctor Wu said
it was an antivenin

- quarter something...
- Polyvalent?

- Yes, that's it, that's it.
- Okay, okay.

- He's crashing.
- Damn it!

I need six vials of crofab

and an anti-parasitic
cocktail stat.

- On it!
- What's open?

- Number two.
- Danny? Danny.

Hey, we'll take it from here.

- Is he gonna be okay?
- We'll do our best,

I promise.

Dr. Picketts, please report

to Room 213, Dr. Picketts.

Danny Boy.

- Oh.
- Danny.

- Danny, Danny, oh, my God.
- Gwen, Gwen, hey, baby.

- Oh, my God.
- How's our baby?

- We're good, we're good.
- Yeah.

But more importantly,
you're okay.

Thank God.

Oh, my body hurts all over.

I'm sure it does.

How long have I been out?

It's been a few days.

- A few days?
- Yeah.

I don't understand...
What the hell

- were those things?
- The CDC is working on it.

We're literally getting
more information every day.

Where did they come from?
Are there more of them?

I'm pretty sure
they came from that crack

in the garage, and we think

they're isolated
except for the one

they brought
to Doctor Wu's office,

but they took care of that, too.

That's what we know.

I've never seen anything
like those creatures before.

Honestly, I'm lucky to be alive.

I know, I wish
we could say the same

for Doctor Wu and Bill.

Oh, God, Uncle Bill.

I know... I don't want you
to be upset right now.

I have a surprise for you.

Mom!

Danny.

Hey, come here.

Oh, God...
I'm telling you...

- I love you so much, Mom.
- I love you.

Oh...

I'm glad you're okay.

I have some news for you.

Uh, we have some news for you.

You're gonna be a grandma.

- Oh, ow! Oh, it's okay.
- Oh... oh, I'm sorry.

- It's okay.
- We're super excited,

Yeah.

- Oh, congratulations.
- Thanks.

Oh... I'm so happy.
