Plot
Divinity student Pam Doree is made responsible for a box that appears to have been sent to Earth by evangelicals from outer space. The miraculous box offers humanity a means to make the world a more unified place. Of course, such things don’t come without some kind of–sacrifice.
Quotes
PAM: So it's not pulling molecules out of us, right?
WASSERMAN: Right! Which is good news!
DUSEK: And what is the basis of your faith, Mr. Jarvis?
JARVIS: Oh, eye-witness accounts and reproducability. The Bible and the scientific method. Mulder and Scully.
Trivia
The story plays with the myth of Pandora's Box. Pam Doree is a variation on Pandora, and Eddie Mathis somewhat parallels Epimetheus.
Dr. Timothy Dusek is a Professor of Theology and Ethics. In Czech, his surname means "soul."
