Garbage Spores

Story: K-9: Black Hunger
Written By: Chris Roache
Length: 30 Minutes
Year: 2010

A couple of worker bees from the Department are in the sewers cleaning up piles of trash with an experimental device that unleashes black spores which eat up all the garbage, but they go rogue and get into one of the guys suits and eat him.  Luckily Darius was spying on this and thought the best plan would be to steal the trash eating machine because he is the worst employee Gryffen could ever imagine and he hasn't cleaned up the place in fucking weeks.  He takes back and cleans up stuff, but th spores just want to get out and eat all of humanity.  Whoops!The whole scheme with the spores eating trash and more is apparently cooked up by Drake, who is basically revamping an unauthorized former experiment in the hopes of being some kind of perfect boy for the fascist government. His scheme nearly killed everyone, even Darius, so his long clash with Jorjie's mom finally comes to a head. She reports him to the mysterious Lomax (has he been a thing this whole time? I forget), ad Drake is finally relieved of his duties after many a nefarious scheme that has backfired and only thwarted by K9 somehow. Unfortunately evil fascist goon from the first few episodes, Thorne, is brought on to replace the now disgraced Drake.  He will be equally if not more nefarious I am sure!

The episode isn't the worst thing K9 has offered up, but it still isn't great.
