Body is in my freezer, foot is in your clinic freezer, wife is in New York.

I don’t know.

I took shelter in his cabin and used his DNA to take his identity.

If he wasn’t there, how’d you get his DNA?

Humans shed 40,000 of them a minute.

My people shed their skin in one piece.

That way it is easier to eat.

Harry!

She made me watch.

No, she is not pregnant.

We do not have genders like humans.

I had a mate who d*ed burying our offspring.

Ah!

Dad.

What are you doing hanging with that thing?

Do you know what that thing is?

Well, it’s violating a whole bunch of health codes, I know that for sure.

Can you just say it, so there’s no confusion?

Why’s there an alien in my freezer?

Yes, okay.

Asta?

Mm‐hmm.

The cold slows the bleeding, and he’s not just an alien,

and the alien is someone we know.

The mayor. I knew it.

No, Dad. It’s Harry.

The doctor’s an alien?

And you wanted me to get a yearly checkup from that thing.

[sighs]

I allowed myself to become too human.

That’s why I couldn’t complete my mission.

It’s my fault.

[moans]

If I don’t do something, he will die.

I need your help.

Dan, you back there?

sh*t.

I’ll take care of it. Be right there!

Can we trust that creature?

He’s in trouble, and we can help.

I don’t like it, but if you believe in him, okay.

Okay. Thank you.

Just move him‐it away from the fish.

Okay.

How you doing, Sheriff?

I’m good. I saw your truck out front.

I just wanted to make sure you weren’t taking things into your own hands.

You know, Asta’s a strong woman.

She’ll be fine.

Let’s just wait out the storm and fire up some burgers.

Ha! Haven’t you heard? They’re back.

Doctor got in an accident; Asta had to take him to Braddock for an MRI.

Really?

Well, good. That’s‐‐that’s good.

You all right, Dan?

You like you done seen a ghost or something.

I’m okay. I guess it’s the worry.

Right.

All right, then. Well, night.

Stand down on the search.

They made it down off the mountain.

Copy that, Sheriff. We’ll notify.

Harry. Oh, God.

Harry, wake up.

Harry, you are getting worse.

Tell me how to help you.

Without my radio, it’s over.

[dramatic music]

Let me die.

No.

Harry, wait.

Look.

You can help us now.

[sighs] Yeah.

If she knew what she was giving me, she would let me die. [grunts]

Tell me how to help you.

My leg.

It’s poisoning me.

I will die if you don’t chop it off.

We need to do what?

You heard him. Grab the meat cleaver.

Aah!

Uh, it’s okay. It’s gonna be okay.

All right.

[moans]

Okay.

Harry.

It’s gonna be all right.

I’m sorry.

God, I can’t do it.

I can.

Okay, okay, okay. I’m sorry.

Oh, my…

I won’t let you die.
