Death of a Unicorn Storyline
A man and his teenage daughter accidentally crash into a unicorn while en route to a crisis management summit with his boss, Dell Leopold, and Leopold’s family. The Leopolds seize the unicorn, and their scientists discover that the creature is endowed with supernaturally curative properties, which the Leopolds seek to exploit. However, as they delve deeper into their research, they discover the deadly consequences of their actions, as the unicorn’s mate arrives and begins to hunt down and slaughter those involved in the exploitation of the dead animal.
