[Mike shows the kronotite sample to his partner Bob, who's under a potential death sentence for killing a native earlier.]
No doubt about it. It's kronotite.
Are you sure?
I'd stake my life on it.
That's already in the kitty, Bob.
[Beth looks on as Harry [played by Tony Cardoza] straps on a parachute in what appears to be the middle of a desert field.]

The father betta will go up to the surface and breathe in a mouthful of air. Then he will swim to the place that he's chosen to build his nest. Now this is usually by a plant, or on the underside of a floating leaf.
