"What sheriff subtle is trying to tell you" "Is that I'm pregnant." "I have a new puzzle for you to solve." "This complex is massive. prewar." "What, late '30s?" "I believe." "That's before eureka was built." "What's down there?" "Mrs. thorne, ever since you got to this town," "You've been looking for something." "Tell me what's going on." "No." "I have to what?" "Oversee the mayoral election." "This is the official polling place." "It's not a big deal, carter." "Well, now why can't jo do it?" "Because jo's not your lackey." "Well, the town charter says" "That voting security falls on the highest ranking" "Law enforcement officer." "That would be you." "Unless you promote me" "Or become otherwise incapacitated." "The mayor's seat has been open for over a year." "The town needs a voice." "This is a very important service card." "Well, how important can it be?" "I mean, my daughter's backing" "Her 17-year-old boyfriend for the job." "Eureka doesn't discriminate." "Some of our smartest citizens are teens." "So instead of working," "I have to sit here and count ballots" "For some doogie mayor?" "No, actually, your sister volunteered for that job." "Um, it's a bad idea." "Lex becomes really obsessed with politics." "And her mood swings are already out of hand." "Actually, she's really into it." "And you know what," "You should be a little more sensitive." "Your sister's pregnant." "I'm mr. sensitive." "Like..." "What--paper ballots?" "Digital voting machines are way too easy to tamper with." "And campaigns get" "Really competitive around here." "Okay." "I'll do it." "I'm--i'm-- thank you." "Mr. sensitive though." "Oh, my goodness. what a beautiful baby." "Love that shirt. there we go." "Uh, more vinspresso?" "remember, vote vincent." "You're doing great. they love you!" "I can't believe I let you talk me into this." "I hate politics." "We're the glue that holds this town together, vincent." " It's time we had a voice." " Guys, smile here." "That's great!" "Thanks!" "All right. now back to kissin' babies." "A vote for lucas is a vote" "For youthful innovation." "Oh, here's his ten point plan." "Kylie, can you help me pass out some more buttons, please?" "Then can we work on our lab project?" "What's more important, kylie, homework" "Or changing the world?" "I don't know, zoe." "I've never been much of a leader." "Which is why you have me." "That baby face of yours promises idealism and hope" "For all the minors of the town." "And I am going to help you deliver it." "You mean manipulate it." "Tomay-to. tomah-to." "Sheriff carter." "Halo herrera." "Nephrologist, concerned citizen," "And future mayor of eureka." "Well, you don't see that combo platter every day." "Well, I'd like to talk to you about getting your endorsement." "I'm getting coffee. oh, hey, could" "Not your lackey." "Huh. well, um, i-- mr. herrera is it?" "I would love to endorse somebody, but" "But he's already promised his endorsement" "To my candidate, right, sheriff?" "actually" "Eureka needs a mayor who understands" "How a company town works." "Why?" "so your boss can have some global dynamics puppet" "To sell out the town?" "I mean, how many people is thorne gonna fire?" "Which is why vincent is the best candidate" "Because he's out nurturing the community and" "Guys!" "I just want my coffee." "Vincent, get sheriff carter a vinspresso on the house." "It's already on the house and bribery is a crime." "Nice try, fargo." "Do we amuse you, herrera?" "Watch and learn, kids." "Folks, would everybody follow me outside?" "I have something that will entertain and amaze you." "Okay." "I'm done." "Now can we talk about our project?" "I've got some damage control to do here, kylie." "Why don't you just get it started?" "But we're supposed to work together." "And we will after you've had a chance to show me" "What you've got." "So you're letting me take lead?" "That's right. now get to work, partner." "Leave professional politics to the professionals." "Told you it gets competitive." "That's just wrong. uh-huh." "Big news, guys." "Yeah, what's up?" "Those ancient security cameras we saw in the bunker," "I pulled the negatives" "Before thorne locked the place up again." "It's 35 millimeter." "We just have to find someone old enough to develop it." "What?" "The latest next gen technology zane's been developing" "For our sponsor." "Overengineered to keep you cool" "In the hottest situations." "It's amazing what the greatest scientific minds" "And a big old corporate check can buy you." "Too bad we can't buy the next mayoral election." "Just kidding, allison." "I would, however, like you to endorse" "Dr. herrera." "Well, won't that be seen as global dynamics taking sides?" "Maybe." "But on the other hand," "Having someone to smooth ruffled feathers" "During the next round of cutbacks" "Isn't a bad idea." "Well, I prefer to make up my own mind." "You should also think about what's best for global." "We need a personal relationship with the town." "One that shows that we're all on the same team." "Are you and I on the same team, eva?" "Of course." "I'd like to think we're also friends." "Good." "So why don't you tell me what's in the bunker" "Under tesla." "We found bariogenic radiation." "Zoe and her friends are very lucky" "That they weren't infected." "That's why I'm ordering a thermal cleaning" "Of the entire facility." "You realize you'll destroy any organic material" "That's left inside." "Our first obligation is to the town." "Excuse me." "Make sure you vote." "This is allison blake." "I need some records from the archive." "What a time suck this is." "How did we live before digital?" "I never knew you had an artistic side, carter." "I'm a man of many facets." "Check out the date stamp. 1939." "I thought eureka wasn't founded till 1950." "Well, it wasn't." "What were they doin' down there?" "Well, whatever it was," "They tried to bury it for good. huh." "Look who we have here." "S.a.r.a.h., lights. certainly, sheriff." "That was yesterday?" "Thorne's been lookin' for somethin'" "Ever since she came to eureka." "How much you wanna bet it's in this room?" "What is she up to?" "That's gonna have to wait till tomorrow" "The debate's about to begin." "You prepare your opening remarks?" "What opening remarks?" "Hello. hello. is this on?" "Hi, everyone. uh, welcome to debate night." "Uh, I'm sheriff carter and I'll be" "Ugh!" "cut to the chase!" "we want issues, not filler!" "Thank you, lexi," "For your wildly inappropriate enthusiasm." "So without further ado," "I give you your candidates." "And if elected, I'll bring the same principles" "To the mayor's office as I do to cafe diem." "In short, you want it, I got it!" "I promise to bring a voice to the pre-teen prodigy" "That the establishment" "Too often sees as just another pretty brain." "Times are changing and eureka must change with it." "I will protect the tenets on which this town was founded" "And help usher in a new day for eureka." "It's a new day all right." "Just another day in eureka." "Well, it's a mini sun." "Really?" "Took you brainiacs all night to come up with that?" "No. it took us all night to rule out" "Any g.d. experiments as the cause." "So now we have two suns." "Just like tatooine." "Tatu-what?" "Geek speak." "The good news is it's stable" "Holding its position at about 1,000 feet." "So we're not lighting up the entire state." "Yeah, the last thing we need" "Is a spotlight on the town the whole world can see." "Well, agree." "But it's 6:00 a.m. and 90 degrees." "How do we turn it off?" "I'm not sure yet." "It has to be some kind of fusion reaction." "Sounds dangerous." "No, not necessarily." "Based on its containment," "I'd--i'd say it's deliberate." "Who'd want to make a second sun on purpose?" "Maybe the guy who was trying to make a big bang" "At the debates." "Oh, cloud guy. herrera." "Eva wanted me to endorse him." "Such a hidden agenda." "Huh?" "what do you mean?" "Um, zane found some security photos" "Of her sneaking around the facility." "What's down there anyway?" "Well, nothing for long." "She ordered a thermal cleaning." "Can--can we stop it till we get inside?" "No, she's forbidden access." "The whole place is classified." "Something's goin' on." "You go talk to herrera." "I'll look into it." "Yes, allison blake." "She asked for me?" "O--o--okay." "I'm on my way." "Hot enough for you?" "yeah." "What's with the umbrellas?" "He likes to be prepared?" "Did that just come from inside?" "That would be yes." "Hey, sheriff." "You change your mind about that endorsement?" "Uh, not really. what is this?" "This is the end to drought," "Which we may be needing sooner than later." "Welcome to my cloud farm." "Cloud farm?" "Yeah, that's-- that's what he said." "I'm taking cloud city to a whole new level" "With nanotech hydration." "Cumulus, stratus, cirrus, I can create 'em all." "Oh, like you did with the--with the, uh," "Cloud gag yesterday. nice, huh?" "I found a way to hydrogenically infuse the atmosphere" "So I can literally sculpt clouds." "The commercial applications are limitless." "Wow. well, I'm--i'm more concerned about your sun stunt." "Sun?" "no, no, no." "I'm strictly a cloud guy." "Not that I don't mind the bump in the polling numbers." "People love a spectacle." "Yeah, but you have to admit the timing was suspicious." "Have anyone from global come and review my record." "My life is an open book, sheriff." "I'm beholden to my constituents." "Gotta admit, it's a hell of a show." "Zane. just the man I'm lookin' for." "Save your breath, fargo." "I already know who I'm voting for." "I'm offended." "You think I'm only here to get your vote?" "You're not?" "no." "I also want a favor." "It is roasting out there." "A candidate has to project cool confidence" "Under the most extreme conditions." "I hear through the grapevine you're beta testing something" "That can help with staying cool." "Yeah, I might be." "Give me enough to get through the election" "And if--when vincent wins," "I'll name a park bench after you." "Tempting, but no." "I don't do politics." "But good luck with that." "Based on these sun scans," "I'd say your competition's definitely heating up." "I was testing the voting machines" "And I got dizzy." "I know you're not an ob." "Not really a fan of western medicine." "But I trust you." "Well, I'm flattered." "I'm sure you have much bigger issues to deal with." "Yes, and I have people" "To deal with them." "So let's put your mind at ease." "So carter says you've always been interested in politics." "He said I'm obsessed, didn't he?" "No." "Jack thinks the system is broken." "But I think it's up to us to make the system work." "Well, this little guy's system is working perfectly." "Here. want to take a look?" "It's amazing." "What, is something wrong?" "I think I figured out why your hormones" "Are so out of whack." "You're getting a double dose." "Lexi, you're having twins. both boys." "Two sons?" "Two suns. why didn't I think of that?" "Because it's crazy." "It's brilliant." "Lucas, I don't think you appreciate" "What's at stake here." "I mean, the mayor's office oversees city hall." "So?" "so..." "That includes the sheriff's department." "I mean, you could be my dad's boss." "And I thought he hated me now." "It's time to step up our game." "When the world hands you suns, make sunscreen." "Iced mocha, folks." "Stays cool as vincent will be" "When he takes the oath of office." "Suits?" "it's over 100 degrees out here." "Some candidates can handle the heat" "Better than others." "Nice gimmick." "We're just helping the voters" "Stay refreshed so they can make" "A cogent decision at the polling booth." "Yeah, and we're just trying to protect voters" "From harmful uv rays so they won't be blinded" "By indecision." "Iced mocha!" "get it while it's cold." "Sunscreen, people." "Vote lucas and say no to premature aging." "Zoe, I've had a small issue with our class project." "Bigger priorities at the moment, kylie." "Here, grab a box." "No." "I think this is something" "You're really gonna want to see." "This better be good." "Okay, fargo, what's the big emergency?" "The corruption of the democratic process." "Everyone knows herrera's in thorne's pocket." "And now she's harassing my candidate. look." "What are you talking about?" "It's my wall of fame." "Thorne took it. she redacted all the photos" "Of eureka's founders." "She just doesn't want the voters to see" "How connected vincent is to this town's history." "Why would she do that?" "why?" "Herrera checked out." "There's nothing in his background" "Having to do with solar energy" "Or fusion power." "Great. so we got two suns and no suspect." "And now apparently no air conditioning." "You get anything off herrera?" "Other than a creepy politician vibe, no." "No, nothing. what did you find?" "Well, I ran some scans." "The sun has all the properties" "Of a main sequence dwarf star." "The big question is its energy source." "Well, I might be able to shed some light on that." "I ordered copies of all records" "Having to do with the hidden facility under tesla." "Now, of course," "Eva's either had them redacted" "Or they don't exist." "But she forgot one thing." "Accounting." "Oh, somebody messed up their lunch receipt." "The d.o.d. keeps track of every penny that they spent." "So I thought I'd see" "Where they were spending in 1939." "Check out the stuff" "They were ordering." "Deuterium. tritium." "These are heavy hydrogen atoms." "Yeah, and the essential elements" "In building fusion bombs." "So thorne dug up an old bomb testing facility?" "Allison, we gotta get into that room" "Before thorne does her, uh, thermal cleaning thing." "To do what exactly?" "To figure out whether something down there" "Is causing what's up here." "Hurry up. it's over here." "Kylie, it's a billion degrees out." "I don't have time to play house." "Excuse me." "I'm nine and I'm a junior." "I don't play house." "Then what are we doing here?" "Take a look." "Kylie, can you remind me what our assignment was?" "Build a working model of the solar system." "Took that a bit literally, did you?" "How'd you get all the planets to orbit like that?" "They are not the problem." "The sun's a little off." "We are so getting an "a."" "One small issue." "I can't make it stop." "So we're not getting an "a"?" "Yeah, not so much." "You know what, a controlled fusion reaction like this" "Takes real talent." "Well, it wasn't even that hard." "Take a gravitron field generator," "Surround it in a little" "Reactor plasma, heat and serve." "Huh. served up kind of a big helping," "Don't you think?" "Well, we're a little off on the plasma density." "We?" "oh no, no, no." "See, I didn't do this." "Um, and I'm gonna need you to resign from the campaign." "We can't afford the scandal." "Thanks for the support, partner." "Henry, I got a town full of cranky people" "Who need some sleep." "You got any ideas?" "Yeah, make it do what it's supposed to do." "It should've started to dissipate by now." "Well, it's--it's getting some fuel from somewhere." "Chances are it'll-- it'll burn itself out." "But in the meantime," "I'm gonna go back to my garage" "And research just how fast." "Okay. thanks. let me know what you found." "Can I come?" "I want to help." "Oh, I think you helped enough already today," "Don't you?" "I tell you what, you can take atmospheric readings, okay?" "Great." "Great." "So what convinced you?" "Oh, eva had all the old photos removed from cafe diem." "Add that to the mass redaction of old g.d. records" "And making jo shut down the eureka museum." "And having me and henry dig up this place." "They're all windows into eureka's past." "Windows thorne seems to want shut." "Let's find out why." "Focus on our constituents." "No swag for seniors." "We're on a budget." "Hey, um, kylie, look," "About earlier." "You mean when you sold me out?" "You made a second sun." "You told me to take the lead." "I was being nice." "Like all politicians," "You'll say whatever it takes to get what you want." "Now if you'll excuse me," "I have work to do." "The radiogenic detection field" "Reads negative for fusion products." "That good or bad?" "It means we're not being radiated." "Rats." "Oh no, that's definitely a good thing, carter." "No, I mean, literally. rats." " You got somethin' you want to say?" " no." "Okay, come on." "Henry said that the second sun" "Was getting fuel from somewhere." "Is it down here?" "Well, if it is, I'm not finding it." "I can't believe this place has been under us" "All these years." "It's like a door into eureka's past." "Look at this." "That's the door we saw in the security photos." "All right, let's unlock it." "My specialty." "How long do you need?" "This long." "These old school locks are no match" "For a 20 zettahertz processor." "Okay. this is a bit of a letdown." "Why order a thermal cleaning of an empty room?" "Good point. maybe it wasn't always empty." "Can I see, uh, the light scanner thingy?" "One biotelemetric dispersion scanner." "Yes. okay. coming up." "This baby reads patterns of movement" "Left behind by organic materials." "All right, let's see who's been in here." "Look at that." "The dust layer means that these prints are old." "But these high heels are definitely new." "So are the military boots." "Looks like they were moving stuff out." "Like what?" "Like them. oh, my god. are those" "Bodies?" "carter, hand me the scanner." "These bodies were removed" "In the last 24 hours." "We have to find out who they were" "And what they were doing down here." "And why thorne was trying to hide them." "This facility is classified" "And scheduled for thermal cleaning." "Yet here you are violating direct orders." "Eva" "I'd except this kind of insubordination" "From you, sheriff." "Thank you." "But from you two..." "I've always had a bit of trouble" "With authority." "As far as I'm concerned," "This just became an active crime scene." "Oh, this is out of your jurisdiction, sheriff." "I'd be happy to have the d.o.d. remind you of that." "And I'd be happy to tell them why." "You tryin' to bluff me?" "No, he's not because he's leaving." "We all are." "No, actually. we're not." "Carter, we crossed the line." "Let's not make it any worse." "You sure about this?" "Sorry." "Okay." "I can't believe allison backed down." "Yeah, me neither." "Now thorne has all the evidence." "I wouldn't say all the evidence." "I yanked the data chip from the dispersion scanner" "Before they took my stuff." "We can see images of everything we scanned." "Nice." "That's definitely not good." "Really?" "Based on my initial data," "It should've burned itself out hours ago." "That doesn't look like it's burning out." "It looks like it's getting hotter." "I'm melting." "It's midnight and 110 in the shade." "People are getting pretty testy." "Yeah, me included." "It reminds me of tornado weather." "I have a really bad feeling about this." "Well, um, just keep everybody calm" "And preferably indoors." "Roger that." "Kylie is gathering atmospheric data." "I should know something soon." "All right. zane's working on it too." "And in the meantime," "Thorne's wiping out any evidence" "That connects her to these bodies." "Any idea who they were?" "I'm getting conflicting information." "How so?" "From the surveillance photos," "Their approximate age is somewhere between 35 and 45" "When they entered the room in 1939." "All right. with you so far." "The organic residue that you scanned" "Establishes that they also died in 1939." "So they were buried there for 70 years?" "Yeah, well, here's the really puzzling thing." "Common sense says they were around 40 when they died." "But based on these readings," "Their biological age is somewhere around 80." "I want someone posted outside that facility" "At all times." "Nobody comes in until after the thermal cleaning." "Let's get the bodies ready for transport." "Transport?" "to where?" "I'm afraid that's classified information, allison," "As is everything in this room." "And I'd really appreciate it if you leave now." "You said that you considered us to be friends." "I do too." "So why don't you just tell me who those men are?" "I know what it looks like from where you stand," "But it's not what you think." "These were good men" "Who gave their lives for this town." "And it could've been prevented." "You make it sound as if you knew them." "It's time for you to go now." "Why are you doing this?" "Because I have to." "Dr. deacon," "There's something I think" "You're really gonna want to see." "Well, please tell me" "You didn't make another sun." "No, I've been trying to figure out" "How to extinguish the first one." "You mean the second one." "Semantics?" "really, sheriff?" "Could we just-- what?" "Kylie, what did you find?" "Well, I've been doing readings all over town" "And the upper air is saturated with excess hydrogen." "Is that bad?" "Well, uh, not by itself." "But mixed with kylie's project," "Hydrogen could cause a whopping fusion reaction." "Well, how whopping are we talking?" "Well, depending on the source and how much is left, big." "Look, I don't know where this hydrogen is coming from" "But I promise I didn't do it." "That's okay." "I have a pretty good idea who did." "There's no way my clouds caused this." "Well, it's not the clouds themselves." "It's what's inside of them." "There's a lot--it's a whole lot of hydrogen, right?" "Well, not that much." "Maybe 1,000 liters" "At standard temperature and pressure." "Well, you've been outside. it's plenty." "How was I supposed to know someone'd be creating" "A stellar fusion reaction in their club house?" "Hello. you live in eureka." "I guess this means I won't be getting your endorsement." "Well, it's-- just stick to the problem." "Is this how you deliver the nanos to make your clouds?" "Yep. a single stage booster that fuels the cold accelerant" "Mixer for better saturation and heat dispersion." "Nice." "We gotta fix this. can you reverse it?" "You mean exsanguinate the excess hydrogen" "From eureka's lower atmosphere?" " Yes. - no." "I mean, I can make any shape you want," "But once the clouds have seeded," "Natural hydration processes take over." "I say we enjoy the extra sunlight while we can." "It'll burn itself out soon enough." "You were saying?" "It should've extinguished itself." "But it didn't." "That's because kylie's sun" "Ingenious though it is" "Has evolved from a dwarf star" "And is developing into a red super giant." "Uh, which means?" "Instead of burning out," "It's blowing up big time." "Not my fault entirely." "And it's not stopping there." "The sun flares are just the beginning." "And we only have a few hours before it goes critical." "Okay,what are our options?" "If we can get close enough to launch a dispersion module," "A concentration of iron atoms" "Fired directly into the sun's core" "Should cause it to implode." "And imploding's a good thing?" "Yes. once the sun's incapable of fusion reaction," "Then,uh,we'll all be safe." "What if it doesn't work?" "We all get front row seats to a supernova" "Way bigger than hiroshima." "And eureka becomes a mile deep crater." "That's too risky. we need to evacuate now." "Y--jo's already started." "But this is also" "The most advanced research complex on the planet" "And we have an opportunity to save it." "And I'm already developing a compound" "To trigger the implosion." "And I'm working on a delivery system." "Towns can be rebuilt. people can't." "Which is why we're evacuating" "The people while we're trying to save the town." "We're multitasking." "Sheriff,you might be comfortable risking lives," "But I'm not." "Make sure everybody gets out while there's still time." "Eva,we have a chance to save decades of research." "That wasn't a request." "It's like she wants to see the place" "Go up in flames." "I think she might." "Well,what now?" "Let's go,people!" "Move!" "move!" "shuttles are waiting outside." "Let's go!" "You know,jo,after the election," "We'll have quite the influence around here." "Maybe I can up your pay rate." "Don't make me use the stun gun." "You heard her,fargo. keep moving." "Everybody move." "But we're just making sure his constituents" "Are safely away first." "How come you two aren't drenched like the rest of us?" "Oh,a worthy candidate is always cool under pressure,sheriff." "And it's classified." "However,I could be convinced" "To share my secret for,say," "Your endorsement." "This is mine." "Both of you on the bus." "Go. go!" "Everybody move!" "keep goin'!" "Sounds like we're using sunscreen" "To beat injustice." "Just smile and look pretty." "Zo,what are you doin'?" "you gotta go." "Guys,please. please." "Not yet.Latest election polls" "Only show lucas down by two points." "Lucas,you want to score points with the voters" "Or with your girlfriend's old man?" "No contest,sir." "That'll work." "Vote lucas!" "All right,everybody's cleared out." "Any luck?" "We're locked and loaded,sheriff." "Xrt online and ready." "It'll take two people" "To get the module in position for launch." "I can do that on my own." "No." "I'll go with you." "I know this baby best." "Okay. all right. you three get to an evacuation site." " And kylie,nice work." " Thanks." "Be careful." "Thanks." "Hey,could you keep an eye on,uh,lex and zoe?" "Of course. just come back safely." "Thanks." "All right,we're at a safe distance from town." "We can move everyone quickly if we need to," "But with ten evac camps for 2,600 people." "Things are gonna get crowded." "How are you feelin'?" "I just wish someone would do something about the heat." "I hear your pain." "This town needs a mayor who can be cool in a crisis." "And if I'm elected," "I promise I won't sleep" "Until darkness falls again on eureka." "Oh,please." "You don't need stale campaign promises." "You need ideas that are fresh" "As baked bread,which by the way," "Vincent also provides twice daily." "Say no to half-baked science and overbaked bread." "Lucas is your man." "He can't bake his way out of a paper bag." "Oh yeah,like cloud makers..." "What is wrong with all of you?" "Eureka was founded to protect the greater good." "You're worried about votes." "You should be worried about lives." "You cannot be a leader if there is no town to lead." "So I suggest you get your priorities straight." "That was beautiful." "Having fun yet?" "Oh yeah,'cause driving headlong" "Into a fiery death is everybody's idea" "Of a good time." "Sometimes I think it's his." "Carter,could we have a minute?" "Oh,yeah. yeah,yeah. sure." "Jo,you're supposed to be miles away" "At an evac camp by now." "I should risk my life more often." "I prefer you didn't." "Come on,josefina,don't go all serious on me now." "It's too late." "Sheriff." "I thought we agreed to evacuate." "We did. so what are you still doing here?" "None of your business." " Don't play games." " I'm not." "I think zane's device is going to work." "Probably." "If you don't die first." "That is part of the job." "And the men in that bunker would know that." "Sheriff,whatever it is you think you know" "About what you found or about me,it's wrong." "Maybe." "But I'm just gettin' started." "If there's one thing I've learned in life" "Is that nobody should be left behind," "No matter what the reason." "And that includes you." "Mrs. thorne,I'm duty bound to enforce this evacuation." "Jo,make sure she gets out of town safely." "And no,that's not a request." "That looks pretty bad." "You sure the rocket can handle it?" "And untested delivery system" "Aimed at an out of control mini sun." "What could go wrong?" "Ready?" "10,9,8, 7..." "It's fried." "Call allison." "Okay,carter,what's wrong?" "It's zane's module. the electronics are fried." "Do you have any spares lying around?" "Okay,g.d. has plenty" "Of short range booster assemblies." "We just need to adapt them" "To the xrt's specifications." "We'll never make it back in time." "There is another way." "Dr. Herrera's hydrogen seeding device." "It uses similar boosters to the xrt." "But my greenhouse is too close to that sun." "And there's no way they'll ever survive the heat." "Well,hold on. maybe there is." "What are you thinking?" "Well,like fargo said earlier." "A worthy candidate is always cool under pressure" "I've been workin'" "On this heat protection formula for weeks." "Sure that'll work?" "It's a prototype." "But it's overengineered to respond" "To increased body heat and adrenaline." "Well,takin' on a supernova" "So we should have plenty of both." "All you gotta do is slather it on."
