A woman wakes up imprisoned in a death cell, realizing her colleague Roman locked her in. She warns him that 'Subject Zero', a creature in a rage cycle, will soon break free and kill her. Roman confirms this is his plan, admitting he stole her three years of research to secure his own position with the board. Her death, he explains, will not only remove her as the true author of the work, but will also provide valuable live data from the creature's attack. Trapped with a monster about to break loose, her fate now serves his ambition.
