We envision an 8-episode season with episodes running 45 to 55 minutes. The initial story arc covers the first eight episodes with additional storylines providing the option to continue for multiple seasons.
The series is contemporary and set mostly in the United States with occasional locations around the world. Oregon locations in season one are well-known to the producers and offer a rich backdrop for several key sequences. While visual effects play an important role in establishing a fantastic reality, the main characters and their complex interplay drive the storyline and a remarkable quest to solve the mystery of The Box.

A cube of unknown origin is linked to a mass killing
on the Northern California coast.
Episode 1: "Shipwreck"
Synopsis
In a raging Pacific storm, the freighter Perquisite wrecks on the California coast. When first responders arrive they find a pearlescent, cube-shaped container chained to its deck and the entire crew slaughtered. Blood is everywhere, splattered on the walls and pooled on the floors. Limbs are torn from mutilated bodies. Fearing the container was used to smuggle nuclear material, the NRC’s John Taylor sends physicist Helen Davies and her team to investigate. Briefed by the FBI, Helen is given sketchy information that indicates the captain and crew believed their cargo valuable. But what killed them?
With her 8-month-old baby and a nanny in tow, Helen orders the container moved to Eugene, Oregon for careful examination. Having left 15-year-old son Josh at their home base in Virginia, Helen struggles to balance family with unlocking the container’s secrets and tracking down whatever killed the crew. After another massacre is discovered on the southern Oregon coast, biochemist Trevor Hayden joins her team and they head for Port Orford to meet up with Sheriff Dan Reed. Amid rumors a Bengal tiger is responsible for the attacks, her team is stunned when Reed’s own investigation takes them to the killing ground where he shows them a major clue—tracks on a sand dune that suggest a tall, bipedal animal.
When more grisly killings are reported up the coast, Helen and her team race to Coos Bay where locals have trapped “something” in a cave on the beach. Eerie howls echo from the cave as the crowd hatches a plan to blow up the sea monster they believe is inside. Helen offers a military capture instead, but their plan is already in motion and all the dynamite from town is set off at the cave’s mouth. The massive explosion seals the cave, forcing Helen to plan an excavation to learn the predator’s fate. But as a test hole is drilled, there’s word that one of Reed's deputies has fallen ill. He's contracted a virus from the mysterious creature and is fighting for his life.
