“Brain Storm”
McKay brings Keller to Earth to visit an old rival physicist at his secret research facility. The rival demonstrates a wonderful new invention that’s intended to fight global warming, but things do not go as planned.
Details
McKay and Keller have returned to Earth. McKay has been invited to visit an old academic rival, Dr. Malcolm Tunney, and is bringing Keller along as his date. Rodney is bitter about Tunney, who has achieved great success on Earth and rubbed it in by sending a private jet to bring McKay and Keller to his secret facility in the desert. Tunney is throwing a party to demonstrate his new invention, a global warming fighter that can pull in cold weather from across a space/time bridge. Tunney has been funded by The Cause, which has a great stake in the success of the device.
While some of Tunney’s colleagues think it’s too risky to proceed with the “live” demonstration, Tunney insists everything will be fine. But once his team turns the device on, they find they can’t turn it off. The facility’s temperature begins to plunge, and no one can get out. Tunney and Rodney must somehow shut down the device and save Keller from freezing to death.
