When a wealthy dermatologist down on her luck is left to help human clones battle facial rashes, she must choose between the Hippocratic Oath to save "human" lives or to rid the world of human clones. 

SYNOPSIS:

Pilot Episode “Send in the Clones”

DOC MARTINEZ (30s), a beautiful, successful dermatologist who loses her husband and her home due to drug addiction. Only the black janitor HERB JACKSON (50), Latina receptionist, MARIANA REYES (25), and Doc's half-wolf dog (BOTOX) remain behind in her office where DOC is spending the night until she sorts things out. Herb offers to pay cash if Doc examines a twelve-year-old boy, CASEY, with a facial rash. The boy's mother, EVE (32) is frightfully worried because the rash has gotten progressively worse for a year since she adopted him.

Doc finds that the tiny mites that grow on all human faces are astronomically abundant on Casey's face. Doc's suspicions are raised further when Mariana reveals the rash on her breasts, but she refuses to wash her face makeup off for the exam. Doc's microscope reveals human skin cells in her two patients, but unbelievably active mites that are benign to most people. At first, she helps young Casey and Mariana. However, when Eve mysteriously disappears, and Doc finds she is being watched by tiny cameras, she goes on the offensive. When Doc learns that there are twelve people in Herb's group, all with heavy rashes, she feels outnumbered and alone. She tries to escape, only to be retrained by a heavily armed, neurotic security guard, OFFICER DOWNS (40), who also has a facial rash.

Doc agonizes about the Hippocratic Oath she took to heal the sick, but she dislikes and distrusts her patients because of their uncouth behavior and low-class jobs. She plots to take them down with science. She tests their skin and determines which certain pharmaceutical lotions and creams exacerbate the rashes. As Mariana leaves to distribute a harmful facial cream to the others, we learn the insidious truth: her patients are human clones, and the mites, which have co-evolved on humans, are slowly eating them alive.

Officer Downs has a psychotic meltdown and is preparing for a shooting spree, when BOTOX attacks him, resulting in Herb being accidentally shot. Confessions begin to spew as the rashes get worse. The clones planned Doc's drug addiction and assured that she lost her license to practice, so she could treat them. But Doc gets her revenge. Her prescribed creams help the two species of mites to hybridize on the clones, and their faces get eaten away. Casey is confused why Doc hasn't helped them, given her Hippocratic Oath, but Doc has a more important mission now: saving the world. Creepy clones are everywhere, but human prejudice is the real monster!
