In this exclusive clip from a season 2 episode of the remake of the classic CBS science fiction anthology All Access, a group of scientists discover that some species might be better off undiscovered.

In the clip, from an episode called 8, investigators are exploring the cold reaches of the world. But when they discover a highly intelligent new species, their existence may jeopardize more than their investigation.

Joel McHale, Nadia Hilker, Michelle Ang, Tim Armstrong and Brandon Jay McLaren star in the episode, written by Glen Morgan and directed by Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead.
