Original plan for episode 4, later replaced
by second version:
4
Leader enquires after seriousness of D's
statement
Yes. Get plant life out.
Get to it.
So, D, if plants outside, we'll be okay?
Can't say for sure. We don't know anything
about them.
Leader -> only way to make sure destroy
all plants
Other -> can't do that -> years growing
them.
Scientist -> we'd have to spend years
growing more again.
D - must be other way. Can I use your lab?
Find out this species of plant is.
Sci -> come with me, I have sample of
<woman's> skin after attack
THEY GO OFF->
Leader - prepare flame throwers
Man - we can't
Leader - we have no choice
Man - very well
GOES OFF WITH OTHER MEN
LATER
J - D, destroying plants!
D - What?!
-> OFFICE
D- You can't
L - No choice
D - I'm almost there though
L - Can't afford time it'll take
Men start with flame throwers
L - thank you for you help, Doctor
J - come on Doctor, nothing more to do
Final version of 4

D - Jason, prepare a gas kill evil plant ->
He's got to it. See Lester
-> Doctor - right, all plants outside?
Yes
Good
Jason is preparing a gas that will kill this plant, and only this
plant.
-> Jason-done it!

-> well, thanks for you help, Doctor
-> Yes, thank you.
Goodbye Mas.
-> Yes, I'm sorry for…
-> yes, that's alright
-> come on Jo, maybe this time we'll find Metebilis 3.
The ending for the final version was again
altered, but the resolution, gas rather than flame, was what was
used in the finished version.
