In the not-too-distant future, a less-than-perfect man wants to travel to the stars. Society has categorized Vincent Freeman as less than suitable given his genetic make-up and he has become one of the underclass of humans that are only useful for menial jobs. To move ahead, he assumes the identity of Jerome Morrow, a perfect genetic specimen who is a paraplegic as a result of a car accident. With professional advice, Vincent learns to deceive DNA and urine sample testing. Just when he is finally scheduled for a space mission, his program director is killed and the police begin an investigation, jeopardizing his secret.

Creepy Scientist Guy has a eureka...

Creepy Scientist Guy has a eureka moment — something to do with a heat lamp, a jellyfish and quite possibly, the movie Gattaca. (Without the thick sexual tension between Jude Law and Ethan Hawke, natch.) Bottom line: He "know[s] where it comes from." No, wait, new bottom line: Dude just got run over. Before the opening credits. So then, sea monsters? Not that scary. Government goons hell-bent on a cover-up? Scary. Not only did Cirko see the underside of an SUV within seconds of sussing out some crucial monster-from-the-deep DNA evidence, but now his lab lackey Singh (you remember: the face-flaying guy who made a miraculous recovery) manages to impale himself on some sort of pointy instrument during a desperate getaway attempt. That's not pretty. And hey, would anyone care to congratulate me on finally learning Cirko's name? Only took me six weeks! Of course, it figures he bites it before the episode's over. Singh, too. Looks like you're on your own in
