He was cooperative when you got there. Nothing to see. But she was trying to tell you something — about the scanning, the eyes, the way he moved like something that wasn't quite human anymore. And now you're home and it's still running in you. Here's what she was actually describing, why it matters, and what to do with the call you're still carrying.
