Unexpected Piranha Infestation Surprises Characters
Novak:
Excuse me... but is that a fucking piranha?!
Julie Forester:
Carl, it's not the only one.
Novak: [shows the torn diving suit]
Here, here. Yeah, look at this. There are thousands of them. Thousands. And they're pissed!
Mrs. Goodman:
You know, I've heard of this happening. It's like those baby alligators in New Jersey, somebody leaves them and they breed...
Novak:
What?
Mr. Goodman:
Nobody released this fish into the lake.
Julie Forester:
What're you talking about?
Mr. Goodman: [hurries to his office]
This particular piranha vanished off the face of the Earth over 2 million years ago!
Novak:
Um, where's he going?
Mr. Goodman: [shows the fossil; Novak and Julie see the live piranha almost exactly matches the fossil]
Allow me...to introduce you... Pygocentrus nattereri, the original piranha. They used to swim the Colorado River, right up until the Pleistocene epoch! I still don't understand how you found one...alive!
Novak:
We discovered a subterranean lake through a rift caused by the earthquake.
Mrs. Goodman:
But, how could it have survived for so long, cut off from the surface?
Mr. Goodman: [looks at the piranha]
CANNIBALISM. They must have fought each other to survive. Look...oh, the scars on the scales. Notice the eyes.
Julie Forester:
Jesus, it's like he's staring back at you.
Mr. Goodman: [slowly lowers two tips of his fingers into the tank. The piranha rushes to bite them, Goodman pulls them away in the nick of time]
No, no, no. Look, staring... sensing...
Novak:
God, don't do that!
Mr. Goodman:
Piranha hunt in packs. Not for protection, but the overwhelming force. They're organized, methodical. The first bite draws blood, the blood draws the pack.
