In Millikan, Georgia, a guy catches a very docile frog.

Biologists Paul Farraday and Forest Ranger William Bailey argue about nature and the decreasing frog population. Dr. Faraday told Bailey that nature should be preserved, not only for future generations but also out of respect. But unbeknownst to Faraday, Bailey HATES frogs.

Bailey leaves Farraday by the lake, but as he reaches his truck he notices his beeper is missing. Bailey goes looking for a missing beeper, somewhere, but not where he was just standing with Farraday because we don’t see Farraday in the cold open again, and Bailey ends up getting dragged into the lake by an unseen creature and killed. Close-up shot of the frogs he so hates. I hope this one frog is our antagonist for the episode.

Man, I love frogs.
