This batch has only been curing three days.
You want to explain that to the boss?
'Cause I'll lend you the phone.
I'm just saying, it'll be a pretty harsh smoke.
Courier's coming for his two bags full,
and that's what he's going away with.
Yes, sir, yes, sir. Two bags full.
All set.
Did you see that bike?
I bet that dude gets laid a lot.
I got to get me a bike like that.
Because that's the difference
between you and him.
It's the bike.
What was that?
I don't know.
Where'd my cheese puffs go?
Where's your piece?
I left it in the can.
Here.
I used to be a bouncer.
Cover me.
Hey, little guy...
Hello.
Hello...
And we thought there was something badass in here.
Primeval New World Angry Birds Original Air Date November 19, 2012

Look, all I'm saying is,
that before you go through another anomaly,
at least give me the chance to collect some more data.
I didn't exactly plan it last time, Toby.
It just kind of happened that way.
Yeah, but if that's going to keep happening, then...
I need to get an up-close look
at one of these babies, you know?
I need to get detailed readings,
and start figuring out
what really makes these things tick.
I thought your specialty was much more theoretical.
Well, there's something to be said
about empirical evidence.
All right, we'll see.
Okay, fine, yes, yes,
I just want to see an anomaly,
live and in person.
Well, admitting it is the first step.
Wow, you're sure settling in.
And I brought presents.
Wildlife tasers.
I thought we should have something in our arsenal
besides Mac's cannons.
What are these going to do against giant lizards?
It was designed to drop a charging rhino.
Oh...
Point taken.
Mm-hmm...
What do we have?
Crap.
That's the new west warehouse district,
next to the old pier.
There's lots of traffic there.
Okay, check the scanners for any emergency calls,
any sightings in the area.
We'll call you from the road.
And..?
Meet us out there with Mac when he shows up.
Bring those zappers.
You got it.
Yes!
Uh-oh, where are you going?
We have a follow-up with Umigen this morning.
I need to push that back.
Please tell me it's not another dinosaur.
We don't know what it is yet.
Dylan, hey, you've filled in the app
for employee health coverage, yeah?
'Cause I'm kind of thinking you might need it.
I'll get on that, thanks.
Great.
Evan, the Umigen contract hangs on this prototype.
I can't make excuses any longer,
and if you don't want to start laying off entire departments,
you're going to have to put this on the front burner.
Please.
Maybe you should stay.
I can check this out.
There you go.
No. No, we're in this together.
We have to go.
You're going to get yourself killed.
Or you're going to get her killed.
I don't want to go through that again.
Let Leeds handle this.
Look, right now, the only thing I'm worried about
is a funnel through time and space
that's open at the new west pier.
Whoop!
Should that thing be eating meat?
Yeah, some birds eat insects.
And eagles eat salmon.
You watch way too much discovery channel.
Whoa-ho, sorry, leggy.
Jeez.
That thing has got you whipped.
There's a lot of meat on him, though.
Little leggy.
Are you tasty?
Hey.
Quit messing around.
We're not eating him.
Are you yummy?
Whoa!
That was awesome.
That was messed up.
Put him away, will you?
Before it takes off your finger.
I'm serious, dude.
Now!
Yeah.
There you are.
We got an anomaly hit.
Braid Street.
Evan and Dylan left 20 minutes ago.
And you're coming?
Why not?
No reason.
I need to see these things if I'm going to understand them.
You know I have a job to do when we get out there.
I can't be watching your bum.
I can take care of myself.
Lot of overhead wiring to mess up the signal.
I'm getting a weak reading.
Could be coming from inside one of the warehouses.
We could probably get access
down by the river.
Come around the other side.
Yeah, we could do that.
Or, uh...
You don't mess around.
Not if I can help it.
Up you go.
Ow.
Oh, man...
Wow.
Like you said, you don't mess around.
No...
See?
That's why
I didn't want you to come out here all alone.
I knew you'd get yourself in trouble
and need my help.
I appreciate it.
Railway graveyard?
Nah, it was going to be a museum.
Plans never came together.
Reminds me of my kitchen reno.
I've been cooking on a hot plate
since February.
Looks like we don't have to worry about witnesses.
You cook?
Badly.
Alarm.
Hang on a sec.
Evan. You need to see this.
So somebody's growing pot out here.
Should I be shocked?
This isn't a backyard stash.
This is a professional grow-op.
Yeah, well, it's not our problem.
If you want to call the police, you can,
but later.
You won't be doing that.
Okay, guys, just...
hang on. Just...
Everybody, stay calm.
You don't want to shoot anybody, do you?
Well, you do what you're told,
and maybe no one gets shot.
Go check the yard,
see if they brought anybody.
We didn't bring anyone else.
It...
It's just us, I promise you.
People know we're here.
They'll come looking for us.
Okay.
Okay, phones, hand 'em over.
This problem can...
Phones!
Evan, just... Give him your phone.
Thank you.
I'll take the bag, too.
Hand that over.
What's that in your hand there?
Hand it over.
Slowly. Thank you.
You know what that is?
It's a wildlife taser.
Have you guys heard of the predator control team?
It sounds like a marvel team-up.
No. Conservation officers.
We investigate
when wild animals come in contact with humans.
Have you seen anything out of the ordinary?
Animal tracks?
Any, uh, unexplained sounds?
This is private property.
Nobody has asked you to come here.
We're not cops.
We don't care about the weed.
We're just out here looking for animals
that are...
Are not where they belong.
Yeah, so let us get back to...
No.
That,
a-and you guys can get back to your stuff.
And that can be the end of it.
The boss doesn't take kindly to narcs.
Or poachers.
So we going to call him?
No, we can do this ourselves.
Is there some reason
we're going over Burnaby Mountain?
Get us there faster.
How do you know?
I've done some rock climbing
up this way.
Which way to the big shiny hole in the universe?
Would you just watch the road?
Sam loves my driving.
Oh, well, then she's perfect for you.
Completely insane.
Well, that almost sounds like you're jealous.
Uh, oh yeah, right,
'cause skinny brits on the back of motorcycles
is what really turns my crank.
Oh, my God,
did I just accidentally make you sound hot?
It's unavoidable.
Mac, do you see that?
See what?
That!
What the hell was that?
A really, really big bird.
Tell Evan we've got a sighting.
No one's answering on their cell phones.
Maybe there's some kind of interference from the anomaly.
Or interference from whatever came out of it.
Fast little bugger came out of nowhere.
And it had blood on its beak.
Which means
we're not the first people it attacked.
Where did it come from?
Somewhere back that way.
Do you get used to this?
Used to what?
Thinking you're going to die any second.
We've been lucky so far.
Well, that's comforting.
Something went over the side.
Looks like a bike.
There!
Mac...
That's his foot.
Did it eat the rest of him?
Let's just hope the crash killed him first.
Professional courier by the look of it.
So, now what?
What do we do? How do we track this thing?
I'm going to take you home.
No!
No...
Evan and Dylan are still out there.
So...
Are you coming or what?
Uh-huh...
No, absolutely, I completely understand.
Mr. Cross has just been extremely busy, and...
Of course, you couldn't wait forever.
Yes, next time.
Okay.
Thank you for calling.
This is Evan. Leave a message.
I'm guessing you took this as a summer job,
put away some money until the Mountain season starts?
Maybe.
Well, it's turning into a lot more than that.
Then there's no quitting,
this becomes who you are.
You got a better idea?
'Cause telling the boss we let you go
is not on the list.
I got a better idea.
How about everybody stop talking,
starting with you?
Sit.
You two have a serious Alpha dog problem.
I promise you, we're not here to mess with you.
We just want to have a look around, and get out.
Listen, the animals that we're looking for,
they could be very...
Unusual.
Very dangerous.
You've seen something.
Nothing unusual...
especially.
But something.
He found a bird.
- Where? - What kind?
It's just a bird.
Can I see?
Please?
Yeah.
So, lieutenant,
how was your meeting with Evan?
Uh, the one on Monday, Tuesday, or Thursday?
You've had three meetings?
Nope, he's canceled three meetings.
And you can call me Ken.
Huh, he's avoiding you.
That's good.
What? How is that good?
Well, it means he knows I'm not going to let him
get away with not meeting you.
You have a very complex relationship.
Yes, well, managing Evan is 90% of my job.
Noted.
Seat?
So...
How is the other 10%
with Evan Cross out chasing dinosaurs?
We are doing just fine. Thanks.
I'm-I'm just saying,
I can imagine his distraction
might be causing some financial difficulties.
Now, if you'd like, I'm sure I could find
a defense contractor
who's looking for the next
high-speed processing chip.
What I want
is for the government to take over
this whole anomaly thing.
I thought that was a common interest.
And I want nothing more
than to make this a part of project magnet.
But I can't do that
until Mr. Cross starts sharing his knowledge.
Well, then,
you're just going to have to catch him in the hallways.
That's what I do.
I'll get you a monthly pass.
Ms. Finch...
Ange...
Ms. Finch is fine.
You know how eager I am to offer my services,
but as long as Mr. Cross keeps freezing me out,
I have no way of proving to him
how helpful I can be.
That is a very good point, lieutenant.
And I think
I may have an idea on what to do about it.
I figured he wandered off
somebody's egg farm.
Not even close.
You know what it is?
I'm thinking Titanis Walleri.
He doesn't look very Titanis to me.
I think he's just a juvenile.
How big do they get?
Let's just say
if there are adults out there,
we're going to need a bigger box.
And I don't suppose they're herbivores.
Well, if they really are the species I'm thinking of,
their common name is "Terror Bird."
Awesome.
Do you think there could be like...
A flock of these things out there?
Well, they are birds.
You've been feeding it pot.
He likes it.
Don't you, leggy?
If this one has a joint,
a big one could eat, like, the whole crop!
Yeah, so let us help.
Look, that's why we're here,
to get rid of them.
Let us handle your bird problem,
and then we go away.
We're not even remotely interested in your crop.
Guys...
Why not trust me, hmm?
It's your stash, not mine.
Yeah, okay, you can go.
She stays.
No. We're a team.
It really feels like you think I'm stupid,
but I'm the one with the gun,
and you're the one who came onto my property.
So, you do what I say.
She stays.
Evan.
It's okay.
Go.
Someone needs to see what's out there.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
I'll be fine.
So-so, can they fly?
There's their car.
Yeah, I see it.
But I don't see them.
Evan?
What's it say?
It's fuzzy.
Interference, I guess.
But I think it's this way.
Where do you think you're going?
With any luck, to see an anomaly.
Well then, take this.
Works just like a real one.
Point and shoot.
I can do this.
Of course you can.
But that doesn't mean you should.
Hey, wait up!
I know it's hard to believe
what I'm saying about the birds...
Giant man-eating ostrich,
what's not to believe?
It's not a bad cover story, though,
for when I kill you and have to dump your body.
What? Dude, chill!
Where do you think this is headed, Skeezer?
They go to the cops, we go to prison.
Do you want to go to prison?
Just give me the little bird, and we're gone.
We don't want anything to do with the rest...
How about you sit down?
Yeah, no way you're taking leggy.
This isn't about the bird, Skeezer!
Stop acting all gangsta, dude.
You're not going to kill anybody.
Maybe I will.
And maybe I'm gonna start with your chicken!
Leave him alone!
Look, lower your weapon...
This all started with that thing!
- Now get out of my way... - Not a chance.
Well then I'll kill you!
Nobody's killing anybody!
It seems pretty quiet.
I don't know if they came this way.
Evan would've followed the readings.
Hold on.
I want to check out this building.
Stay here till I get back.
Sure.
Evan!
Whoa, no.
You stay!
Did you not see that thing chasing my friend?
He needs my help.
Mr. Cross!
Run!
Leeds, find a place to cross over!
How did you find us?
I have a sophisticated intelligence network!
So Ange told you?
Can we talk about this later?
Come on.
Mac! Stop!
That's enough.
Are you out of your mind?
You brought friends?
I should just kill you.
It was about to nibble your brains out.
Those tranqs are heavy loads.
Too much will kill it.
It's kind of hard to put it back where it belongs
if it's not breathing.
Well, if that's the problem,
I'll carry it back to the anomaly myself.
That's not my point.
Thought I took care of that one in the hit and run.
What, out of ammo?
Yeah.
Up here.
Help him up!
Hurry. Let's hurry.
Hurry, pull!
I think it smells my blood.
Well, let's take care of that.
Hey, Mac?
Dylan's in trouble.
She's being held captive in one of the other cars.
We've got our own problem to deal with right now.
What are you doing?
Putting on a field bandage.
Antibiotic swab, mini lavage kit,
pressure bandage, you'll be right as rain.
Huh.
I like to be prepared.
I see that.
You must be Lieutenant Leeds.
And you must be Mac Rendell.
Have you got a service revolver in that kit?
No. I'm not officially deployed.
Those guys took away my taser, Mac.
You spent all your ammo on that one bird, didn't you?
Sorry. I saw it trying to kill you, and I lost my head.
I'll find something to use as a weapon.
Christ...
Toby's still out there.
What the hell is out there?
I can't believe you brought one of those things in here.
A little one!
My friends are under fire. Just let me go.
No, not until I know the crop is safe.
What do you care?
It's the boss's crop.
Let's get out of here.
There is no boss, you idiot. I'm the boss.
You work for me!
So that's why you always act like a dick...
I have to help them.
Just, somebody give me a gun...
Well, the "boss" says
don't dick around on the net!
The "boss" says don't smoke all the profits!
The boss says shut your hole or I'll give you a new one!
If you want a matching one!
Hey!
Everybody, calm down.
Everybody, just take a breath.
Oh, God, enough already. Skeezer, shoot her.
What? I wouldn't do that
even if I did still work for you, which I don't!
Toby, I think you should just back up and go.
No, I'm not leaving you here with these pricks.
I'm not a prick. I just work for one.
I mean, used to.
Well, how about pointing your gun somewhere else!
Sorry.
Skeezer!
No, Blake, she's right.
I don't want this to be who I am.
Would you rather be dead?
Oh, my God.
What the hell was that?
A tranquilizer dart.
I told you, we're not cops.
No, no, no, no, no...
Okay.
I need to get out of here.
You can't.
Not until I get rid of those things.
I can't let you lead one into the city.
That's your problem, that's not my problem.
Terror Birds can run faster than you can drive.
Okay.
Five minutes, but then I'm out of here.
No, no, no, no, no.
She stays.
Seriously?
Again?
It's her or you.
Dylan,
it's okay.
I got an up-close look at one of those things.
You have to take it down.
Okay.
Give me your re-loads.
Re-loads?
It's okay, I'll just get my taser.
I'll be right back.
You touch her, it won't be a tranq in your ass.
That should do it.
You were down one.
That brings you back to zero.
Paintbrushes.
We can varnish the thing to death.
Hey, a vintage railroad tea service.
Could get a fortune for this online.
Okay, right, uh...
Oh, uh, we could use these as projectiles.
If you've got really good aim.
Passable.
Huh. That's new.
I take it this is
the darkness before the dawn?
Don't start writing epitaphs yet, Leeds.
This thing has a skinny little neck.
I'm sure you can wrap a tourniquet around it
while it eats me.
Yeah, let's call that plan B, shall we?
Dylan, talk to us.
You guys okay?
Evan's got a scrape,
but Lieutenant Leeds patched him up.
That guy's here?
In full kit.
What about Toby, is she with you?
She's safer than you guys are at the moment.
That creature's making a hell of a try to get to you.
Yeah, it may sense we have a wounded man here,
and think he's easy prey.
Can you get out the far end while I distract it?
No, we only have one exit, and the bird's using it.
Then get ready to move.
I'm about to take out your roadblock.
Be careful, it bites!
Roger that.
Hey, little guy, just calm down.
Just... calm down.
What is that? What the hell are you saying?
It's cantonese,
because, apparently, it doesn't speak English.
Just shut it up, will you? Or I will.
Would you stop pointing your gun at everything?
It's getting really... Irritating.
And you're not going to hurt this little bird,
'cause you could totally mess up the space-time continuum.
And you're not even qualified
to have a conversation with me about that.
Look, just...
I shot your friend, okay?
And I-I feel bad about it,
so just let me take care of the bird.
God, I don't care.
That's it, I...
Screw it. I'm out of here.
You okay?
Shh!
Hey.
This way. Come on!
Go! Go!
Okay, we need to find that anomaly,
and get those three birds back through.
Three?
Yeah, there's a little one in the car
where the stoners were hanging out.
Where's the mark one?
In the growhouse.
Wait, no, I've got mine.
You're not going alone.
I'll go with her.
We're going to need all three of us to trap the bird.
- What about me? - What about you?
Ken Leeds.
Yeah, I figured.
Come on, what do you say?
Soldier boy can be my chaperone.
All right, fine, go.
Go! Go!
So... you have a plan involving the three of us?
You bet I do.
Come on.
Nature's finest local blend.
We make our own tranq.
And how are you going to administer it?
Bake the thing some brownies?
Hotbox.
It could knock it out altogether.
Yeah.
What's a hotbox?
Seriously? You've never hotboxed?
Smoked weed in a bathroom?
Or a car?
Or pretty much
any enclosed space?
Forgive me. I'm not from around here.
Dylan, that thing is fast.
It's going to be on your ass the whole time.
Then we'd better get the timing perfect.
Guess I won't inhale, then.
Evan.
Okay...
That's a pretty neat piece of tech.
Yeah. Thanks.
Can I see it?
Nope.
Come on, we're on the same team now.
Yeah? Well, I guess I missed that memo.
Hey, aren't you the guy
from the bureau of bat-shit crazy?
Uh, we prefer "unexplained."
You know, the thing is,
is I didn't believe in ghosts and aliens either,
not until I pulled this assignment.
Short straw?
Something like that.
I've had a lot of time on my hands
to go through decades of files.
And the thing is,
the world is full of weird stuff,
people don't even know what's going on.
Dinosaurs.
Yeah...
So... just a peek?
Look, when we get close to an anomaly,
there will be an indicator right here.
Did you invent this?
What? God, no, are you kidding me?
I could never think of something like this.
Evan did,
but now he has me reworking it
so it'll have a filter for all these interferences.
Wait. Wait, see?
See? There.
You guys are always walking so fast...
But...
Whoa.
Yeah.
Whoa.
Hey!
You all right?
I could do with a snack.
So, all the creatures
are now back where they came from?
Yes, even the dead one.
Even the little cute one.
The lieutenant here
threw in the whole cardboard box.
Sorry, I'm new at this.
Yeah, well, luckily, Leeds,
it'll decompose in... How long?
Well, Terror Birds are Cenozoic,
so, say, two million years.
You are a lucky man, lieutenant.
Luck-y.
I've had a fence erected around the anomaly
until it closes.
The area is secured.
Does that mean I get to study it in the meantime?
She loves that anomaly.
She's going to marry it.
Okay, how much of that stuff did he breathe in?
Don't be mad, Ms. Finch.
It was all in the line of duty.
He was at the hazard station.
Right by the smoker.
Oh.
All right, are there any legal issues
I need to be prepared for?
There were two casualties.
The guy who was running the grow-op,
and then we found parts
of what must have been his courier.
It wasn't pretty.
There was a third guy.
We left him at the E.R. out cold from a tranq.
Mm-hmm.
With any luck, hopefully,
he just chalks it up to a bad trip.
At least
until he starts wondering what happened to his friends.
Well, I've already started a cover story,
so don't worry.
It won't come back to Cross Photonics.
I might have been wrong about you, lieutenant.
I'm here to help.
That's good.
Because the Umigen contract
fell through today.
So we're going to need
some other cash flow options fast.
Lieutenant,
is your offer
to direct some government contracts our way
still good?
Just say the word.
Yeah, what the hell.
Sure.
But this doesn't make us friends.
Noted.
So are we going to talk about the leg wound?
What leg wound?
Okay.
