Place of Angels
"Place of Angels" is the 23rd episode of the Supermarionation television series ''Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons''. It was first broadcast in the United Kingdom on on ATV Midlands, and was written and directed by Leo Eaton. In this episode, a lethal synthetic virus threatens the lives of millions of people.
==Plot==
At the Bacteriological Research Centre near Manchester, England, Dr Denton and his assistant, Judith Chapman, activate a culture of K14, a synthetic virus. During her drive home, Chapman is killed instantly upon crashing into a fuel tanker that Captain Black is using to obstruct the road and is reconstructed by the Mysterons to carry out their threat to destroy the "Place of Angels". Returning to the Research Centre, the reconstruction strangles a guard with a pair of mechanical forceps and steals the vial containing the K14 virus from its secure locker.
Colonel White dispatches Captains Scarlet and Blue to the Bacteriological Research Centre. K14 is the most lethal virus developed, and if the vial were opened up to ten million people could die. After the Chapman reconstruction is sighted in New York, Scarlet and Blue divert their Spectrum Jet and pursue the Mysteron agent along the Interstate Highway in a Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle. Acting on the telepathic advice of Captain Black, Chapman abandons her car and evades Spectrum, leaving behind what would appear to be the unsealed vial. The area is quarantined and disinfected and Scarlet and Blue are placed in isolation on Cloudbase. However, Dr Denton's tests check negative for K14 and it becomes clear that Chapman, who has deceived Spectrum, still has the K14.
Soon, Chapman is sighted all over North America, in locations including Los Angeles. From the etymology of the name ("Los Angeles" in Spanish meaning "The Angels"), Scarlet reasons that the Californian city is the threatened "Place of Angels". Scarlet and Blue intercept Chapman as she drives along the Colorado River. White suspects that the Mysteron agent is heading for the Boulder Dam to release the K14 into the Los Angeles reservoir and infect the water supply. Scarlet ejects from the Spectrum Jet and lands on the dam, sustaining a bullet from Chapman. However, he returns fire and the Mysteron duplicate topples over the side when a grille breaks underfoot, screaming to her death. Scarlet manages to retrieve the dropped K14 vial from a ledge before it too falls into the reservoir. A frantic White radios the Spectrum officer, who replies that the "Place of Angels" is safe.
