    In a world where a new species of human suffers discrimination and containment, a young and erratic Control Officer for the Registry meets a sadistic yet charming bi-species man and builds a partnership that threatens to expose the lies at the foundation of the organization?s operations.

    Well, the species isn’t contagious (since they’re a species and all and not a disease) and all the agents have nothos partners. However, I reworked it with your format in mind. How about:

    In order to contain and cure a mutant species, the Homo nothos (false man), that threatens the survival of the human race, a federal agent must partner with one of their own, a female nothos bent on obtaining freedom.

    This does at least imply greater stakes, and an obvious “appeal to women,” though it feels misleading since the assumptions will be that one, his partnering with a nothos is unusual, and two, that there’s going to be a love story between them. Since that is the most common theme used to bring in female viewers. And I know that’s what I assume whenever I see a setup like this one. Perhaps it’s just me though?

    Also, does it sound like the agent is doing all of this on his own? The containing/combatting/whathaveyou without the backing of an organization, as if he’s some sort of vigilante or renegade agent? Almost like he’s on a personal mission to contain and cure the species, instead of it being his career within the government. Maybe that’s just me too.

    Sorry to reply twice, but I reworked the logline to include the partner better: As the government struggles to contain a new mutant species, the Homo nothos (false man), one of its young federal agents works to prove himself by engaging a charming half-human, half-nothos crime boss in a game of liesRead more
