Previously on Surface.
Have you seen my mother? Rich and Daughtery found that sea monsters were not the only strange creatures.
What they're doing over there is unnatural.
He cloned a sheep 20 years before Dolly.
We know his research made those things in the ocean.
Just like he made you.
You have a lot of calls to 910 here, Davis.
You've reached Iderdex Systems' Central Cryogenics Facility in Wilmington, North Car Iderdex? You can't destroy the technology.
It's over.
Well, where you going? Home.
To see my son.
Hi! I missed you so much! I'm looking at thousands.
They're like cryogenic coolers.
They've got two of everything on the planet.
It's like Noah's Ark.
Freeze.
The sea creatures began their destruction.
I picked up a sizeable NOSSUR reading off the Hispaniola Trench.
This is it.
Listen up! The 9.
4 magnitude earthquake struck 150 miles off the coast of Puerto Rico, creating what the National Weather Service is calling a teletsunami.

They're not answering.
Then lock him up.

Where? Put him up in the floor command.
The computers are gone, it's secure for now.
Sir, that's an official ASI override protocol.
Look, I got a damn tsunami coming.
Do what I'm telling you and get your ass back to the terminal floor ASAP.
Yes, sir.
What do you mean, tsunami? Hey.
If we get on, I'll call you from the plane, okay? I understand why you're upset.

according to our correspondent, John Weem, on the ground.
John, what's the latest? Thanks, Bill.
To call this city a ghost town would be a grave understatement.
In fact, the only people that remain are news crews such as ourselves.
Bill, I don't have the best vantage point to see, but what I can tell you is, there is something big moving through the streets.
In fact, I think we might be able to catch a glimpse of it just over my right Oh, my God! John, are you there? It's him.
