Tourist Attraction (The Outer Limits)
"Tourist Attraction" is an episode of the original ''The Outer Limits'' television show. It first aired on 23 December 1963, during the first season.
==Plot==
Dominating millionaire, John Dexter, drives a group of explorers and scientists pursuing an ancient lake monster that is reputed to live in the waters of a South American dictatorship. Using underwater detection equipment aboard Dexter's yacht, the creature is spotted swimming along the lakebed. Following several attempts, the creature is eventually captured and taken to the local university for study.
However, after the creature is immobilized and stored inside a freezer to aid in its preservation while out of water, Dexter plans to transport it to the United States to place it on display, and to enhance his reputation; but, San Blas' absolute ruler, Juan Mercurio, plans to use it to attract tourists to his country's faltering World's Fair, claiming the animal as a national treasure. During its captivity, the creature comes to life due to an inept guard's negligence, and emits ultrasonic waves, causing the freezer door to implode. It is recaptured before it can fully escape its confines, with an armed guard from Mercurio's palace ordered to stand watch. Dexter overpowers him, and arranges for the creature's transport on his private plane back to the states.
While his assistants prepare the monster for its trip, they are shocked to see several more of the creatures emerging from the lake. A marine biologist, previously employed by Dexter, urges them to turn the creature loose. Reluctantly, they comply, watching as it joins its comrades. Dexter, shooting at the creatures in an effort to stop them, is abruptly halted by a piercing, ultrasonic pulse. The creatures begin to crawl back into the lake, where they disappear under the water. With the combined energy of their earth-shattering sound waves, the creatures amass and then topple the dam created by Mercurio during his reign of power, killing him, and flooding San Blas, destroying all that he had built.
