2.6 - She’s Alive!

"In which Andrew Snidge is marginally sneaky, Dr. Herbert West is accidentally terrifying, and the identity of Jane Doe #753 is revealed!"

Synopsis
Andrew and Herbert arrive at Doctor Caligari's laboratory and place the corpse in the irradiation chamber. The process works and the corpse, now revealed to be Elizabeth, wakes up, which causes Andrew to faint. Herbert is immediately delighted, as he never had a reanimated corpse that was able to speak before. Upon further examination it appears that Elizabeth's higher functions are intact. Once she remembers what happens, Elizabeth starts worrying about Nathan and wants to go find him. She then starts to panic when realizing, that she can't feel the rest of her body. Herbert informs her that he amputated it, as the torso was a total loss after her gunshot wound.

Elizabeth questions why Herbert brought her back to life, and continues to be upset about currently only being a head. This is when Herbert explains, that Elizabeth can now pick any body she wants and brings out a catalog to show her his collection. Elizabeth notices that she's hungry, and remarks that "those things in the tank", Caligari's brains, look good. When Andrew wakes up, he hands Herbert a duffel bag, which they use to transport Elizabeth's head back to Herbert's lab.

Trivia
