* NotEnoughToBury: At the start of the episode the mosasaur emerges through an anomaly into a suburban swimming pool where it [[SwallowedWhole gobbles up the lifeguard]] before returning to its own time. Later it re-emerges in a reservoir where it regurgitates a bolus of its recent meal. The bolus is a blob of gore composed of material that the creature could not digest and is unrecognizable as human remains.

Cutter realises the anomalies are even more complicated than he thought when a mobile anomaly opens, moving from a swimming pool to a reservoir to a basement. Through it comes a Cretaceous mosasaur, and even more startlingly a message from Helen Cutter. Nick goes through and finds her alive and well, but less than willing to help.
