Previously on Scientific Method...
I'd like you to join the Epsilon Vega Lambda fraternity.
Are you kidding me?
THE most prestigious honors fraternity on campus?
Me?
(Liz)
You HAVE to tell me what goes on behind closed doors.
Feel free to dig in.
(Professor)
Several homeless people have disappeared off the streets in the last two months.
(Liz)
Why is your fraternity kidnapping homeless people?
(Dr. North)
By consuming other people
(Dr. North)
their brain power is added to our own.
Oh Roger.
Yeah, Dr. North?
Kill them
for me
for all of us.
Sausages...
I just want sausages...
Don't take this personally, guys.
(grunting)
What's happening to him?
Sausage withdrawal!
He's only ever had one
he needs more.
(grunting)
He's going into shock.
Get him outta here!
Got some troubles, do ya doc?
You've been spared for the moment.
Thought they'd never leave.
Ugh!
They're too tight!
Ha!
What's so funny?
They chained by sleeves
not my wrists.
Just a little...
(grunt)
Now how do we get me out?
Hey, maybe we could sell your hands off.
Or you could just try selling the chains off first.
Oh.
Right.
(Matt)
How are you feeling, man?
Better...
You gave us quite the scare.
What happened to
Liz and Carl?
They've somehow managed to escape!
What?
We need to send a campus-wide alert.
They won't get very far with everyone on campus looking for them.
Don't bother.
I already know where they're headed.
- Professor, Professor!
 
The fraternity!
- The fraternity's the one who's been kidnapping homeless people!
 
Roger's under their control and he tried to kill us!
Slow down.
What's going on?
- The faculty advisor, Mr. North. He's behind it all.
 
Well Liz was being weird with her binoculars again
- He said that eating people makes you smarter, but I know that's all wrong.
 
and we spied on the fraternity. We found the passcode to enter, and then we got in.
Liz.
In five words or less.
Fraternity
kidnapping people
making sausages
Carl.
Five words or less.
What is this, a haiku?
Now!
Roger
tried
to
kill
us
So this fraternity is more insidious than I thought.
Sausages
how absurd.
Dr. North believes that if you eat someone
you gain their brain power.
And those things are addictive, too.
Roger was going through some kind of withdrawal.
Can't you do something?
You're a professor!
Just because I'm a professor doesn't mean I can magically save the day.
Roger!
He's one of them!
Man am I glad to
(grunt)
Carl!
What's that in his pocket?
So that was his goal
to turn us.
Help me carry him to my car.
Where are we going?
My house.
(Liz)
I've never been to a professor's house before.
You mean you actually live here?
You think I can afford a mansion with the pay I make?
(yawn)
Roger?
What am I tied to this chair?
Give those to me
I need them!
I guess he's still under their control.
If you're not going to taste their sweet nectar
you should give 'em the me!
The sausage is still in his system.
I theorize that if we can flush it out
he'll go back to normal.
And how the hell are we gonna do that?
Liz, go to the second cabinet on the left.
We need a funnel.
Carl, go to the fridge.
look for a bottle marked
"laxative"
(gasp)
(toilet flush)
How do you feel?
(groan)
How do THESE make you feel?
Ohh...
God.
It worked.
How can you be so sure?
Maybe he's faking it!
The addiction would be too strong to resist.
He's cured.
Now that we know what stops the addiction
we can free the rest of the fraternity.
Roger
how many people are in the fraternity?
11 others
including Dr. North.
That's a lot of laxatives we have to buy.
There's no way we can give laxatives to that many people
at least not all at once.
Then what the hell are we supposed to do?
We destroy their supply of sausages.
It will take longer
and withdrawal will be extremely painful
but they'll live.
But they've got loads and loads of sausages in there
and loads and loads of people to stop you
from destroying the loads and loads sausages.
Then I guess we'll just have to burn the whole place down.
Before we go, let's swing by the lab.
I need to fetch something.
I assume everything went as planned?
Yeah, Matt.
These two are now ones of us.
How does it feel to be a part of something so great?
Feels kinda like this.
Let's all leave the burning building in a calm and orderly fashion.
The building is ablaze.
Save yourself, Dr. North
before it's too late.
Who said that?
You'll soon realize that the sausages aren't worth dying for.
You think I was into some kind of control?
Nonsense!
My sausages will make the world a better place.
But at what cost?
Nothing worth having is free
but in this case, the cost is very, very low.
The price of human life, no matter who it is
is too high.
And what you gonna do about it?
(grunt)
Professor!
Help me carry him.
Dr. North...
He was quite the scholar
published hundreds of papers, a couple of books
and was head of the school's most prestigious fraternity.
What a waste.
It's too bad.
I really respected Dr. North.
He was the only teacher I ever had who thought I was a genius.
True intelligence isn't something that's easy to find.
Sometimes it takes a madman to recognize it.
Too bad he ate people.
Yeah, that was kinda gross.
