Sam Daniels

[Sam and Casey caution eager new team member Major Salt.]

It's just one of those panics that puts us all in danger.

Casey Schuler

And he's under direct orders not to die out there. And that's one set of orders he's actually planning on following.

Sam Daniels

[Sam looks over Casey's shoulder as he dictates the Motaba Valley outbreak report.]

"Alarmingly high fatality. All localized within a three-mile radius... incubation period short... appears contained." Alarming! Casey, you didn't put "alarming".

Casey Schuler

It's an adverb, Sam. It's a lazy tool of a weak mind.

I think a state-sanctioned divorce signed by both parties is strong evidence that something is off.

Casey Schuler

I hate this bug.

Come on, Casey. You have to love its simplicity. It's one-billionth our size and it's beating us.

Casey Schuler

So, what do you wanna do — take it to dinner?

Sam Daniels

No.

Casey Schuler

What, then?

Sam Daniels

Kill it.

What happened, Casey?

Casey Schuler

Oh, nothing — I just got a sudden case of the willies. [...] I hate them willies. They ought to call 'em the "Sams", don't you think?

How many brain cells did I kill?

Sam Daniels

How many? 'Bout a billion.

Casey Schuler

Ooh... now I'm only as smart as you.

Maj. Salt

[showing them the progression of the virus on a computer]

Okay, sirs, here we go. These pictures were taken over a period of eight hours. Normal, healthy kidney cells before they met the virus. In the space of an hour, a single virus has invaded, multiplied and killed the cell. And in just two hours, its offspring have invaded cells here, and here. Continually multiplying.

Casey Schuler

Jesus Christ, five hours? It infects the cell, replicates, and kills this fast? These numbers can't be right, Ebola takes days to do this damage.

Maj. Salt

Sirs, the numbers are correct. I wish to God they weren't. One goes in, millions come out. Every cell is dead. Now we see them individually, searching for the next victim until there's nothing left to kill.

Casey Schuler

Mark this day, Salt. We could spend our whole careers waiting to see a new virus.

Maj. Salt

[Salt zooms in some more]

Sirs, Mr. Motaba, up close and personal.

Casey Schuler

I hate this bug.

Sam Daniels

Come on, Casey. You have to love its simplicity. It's one-billionth our size and it's beating us.

Casey

So, what do you wanna do — take it to dinner?
