About this episode

A new planet appears beside the sun, leading a remote town to believe they are facing an alien invasion, but the reality is more disturbing.

A strange new “planet” appears beside the sun, broadcasting broken English through old radios and sending mysterious machines down to Earth. As paranoia consumes a remote town, the residents prepare for what they believe is an alien invasion. But when the visitors finally arrive, the truth is far more disturbing than anyone realizes. * * * CONTENT DISCLAIMER: This episode contains explicit content not limited to intense themes, strong language, and depictions of violence intended for adults.
