1:08:00
And in this, I shall be
answerable exclusively...
1:08:02
to my own conscience
and judgment.
1:08:05
Dr. Morbius, in the absence
of special instructions...
1:08:08
you leave me
in a very awkward position.
1:08:11
- Commander Adams.
- Speaking, Lieutenant.
1:08:14
Skipper, the chief's
been murdered.
1:08:17
Quinn? Murdered?
1:08:19
Yes, he was alone,
working on the monitor.
1:08:21
The rest of us were outside
on guard duty. l...
1:08:23
- How was it done?
- "Done"?
1:08:26
Skipper, his body is plastered
all over the communications room.
1:08:30
Leave everything as it is.
We're on our way.
1:08:51
It's started again.
1:09:00
Is that it?
1:09:02
I tried to make a plaster model
from the footprints we found.
1:09:10
37 inches by 19.
1:09:15
Why, it's fantastic.
1:09:19
Doc, I don't understand.
1:09:21
Whatever walks on this would be quite
an opponent for a man with a club...
1:09:24
but with our weapons,
Quinn could have...
1:09:26
No. This thing runs counter to
every known law of adaptive evolution.
1:09:32
What do you mean?
1:09:34
Notice this structure here.
1:09:37
Characteristic
of a four-footed animal.
1:09:40
Yet our visitor last night
left the tracks of a biped.
1:09:45
Primarily a ground animal too.
1:09:47
Yet this claw could only belong
to an arboreal creature...
1:09:50
like some impossible tree sloth.
1:09:54
Just doesn't fit into normal nature
anywhere in the galaxy.
1:09:57
This is a nightmare.
1:09:59
Is that what you made
out of that footprint?
