Torchwood Mission Nine: Dog Whistles

Which is a clever thing for a dog to do really, given their lip equipment.

This week there is a bit of exposition and then a rather loose puzzle, forgive me for being blunt. Anyway, we're finding the activation signal for the alien DNA that's being injected into those going under the knife for a perfect pucker.

First clue, confirms a lot of what we know...however according to the note activation is 21st March (is that Good Friday? I'm rubbish with dates). So all hell should break loose next week. Great :)

Following this there is a report, a meteor, a picture of an alien stem cell (pretty colours, but not as good as these), more meteor side story (of relevance later?), a reminder to watch Dark Talk again and finally Tosh's hint. Which is really the only bit that's relevant to solving this week. She says to check out the New Eden site again.

Head to the research page and watch the video of John Winters talking about their research. Things seem an awful lot more sinister now we know what's going on don't they? What's even more sinister is the amount of emphasis he puts on how they activate the transplanted body-healing stemcells that he talks about.

And how do they do it? Dog whistles. Well, ultrasonic sound anyway, but I reckon dog whistles would do it - are there cat whistles too? Anyway that's the solve, ultrasonic sound.

I'm taking my find music that Mima likes challenge (two in a row ;) ) very seriously and as such am introducing Monkey Swallows the Universe and their homemade video. They disbanded recently, but the lead singer Nat (myspace)is going solo, and has a lovely voice. I saw them live at a festival and fell for their recorders and melodica. Check out Science below and here's a link for Matterhoney.
