**Content warning: This episode does contain brief discussion around suicide. Listener discretion is advised.**
B's throwing it back to an old case she started to research earlier this year - it's now Hattie Whitten's time to shine! But, her story isn't all that it seems and *spoiler alert* Jackson isn't happy about the ending.

Did you know that Maine could be the basis of it’s own X-Files episode? In part one of our examination of some of the mysteries of Loring Air Force Base, B digs into the weird happenings of October 1975 when an unidentified aircraft penetrated the weapons storage area of the base - famously home to a metric ton of nuclear weapons. Was it related to Russian surveillance in a Cold War espionage bid or a true case of a close encounter of the third kind?

We dive into the cyberpunk dystopia of Los Angeles where we follow the adventures of two bladerunners as they are tasked with separate goals to "retire" on the loose replicants, but perhaps they will find their humanity along the way.
