The story begins several months after the first film, with the birth of Martin Brundle. Martin is unique, as he is the offspring of Veronica Quaife and Seth Brundle, the man who became a mutated housefly hybrid (known as Brundlefly) from the first film. The birth is under the control of Brundle’s employer, Anton Bartok, owner of Bartok Industries (which financed Brundle’s teleportation experiments in the first film). Veronica dies during childbirth, leaving Martin in the custody of Bartok, who plans to exploit his unique condition.

Martin’s lifespan is quickly accelerated as a result of his mutant genes. He knows that he is aging faster than a normal human, but he doesn’t know of his insect heritage. As Martin grows, Bartok befriends him, amusing him with simple magic tricks, and tells him that a “magic word” needs to be a secret word that can never be confided to anyone or else it would spoil the magical effect. When Martin is three years old, he’s already physically aged to a child of around ten. He frequently sneaks out of his quarters, and finds a room full of specimen animals awaiting testing. Martin befriends a Golden Retriever. The next night, he sneaks out again to bring him some of his dinner, but he’s gone. Martin finds the telepod Golden Retriever, and they’re about to teleport his dog as a testing subject. The dog ends up being horribly deformed, but still alive and attacks one of the scientists. Horrified, Martin screams and cries as Bartok consoles him.

Two years later, Martin is physically twenty years old, and is a fully mature adult. Bartok then offers Martin a position working on Seth Brundle’s telepods. In the past five years, Bartok and his scientists have not made any progress in getting them to work again after they were damaged on the night Brundle died. Bartok hopes Martin will be able to finish what his father started. He also apologizes for the dog, stating that he didn’t suffer long. Read more
