Perks Of The Job - two detectives investigate a death caused by excessive genetic enhancement. Where do we draw the line when our bodies can be changed at will?

Still - in a post-apocalyptic world a man and his son meet a wandering stranger who puts their whole life in jeopardy, and who makes them ask: what is the most precious commodity in a world without oil?
