Previously on The Hot Zone...

We may have a filovirus on our hands

and there is a chance that it's Ebola.

It can't be Ebola.

Ben, we don't have it.

We just need to run
daily tests on our blood

to prove that we don't have it.

What the hell am I dealing with here?

I can't tell you
that until I get my hands

on some fresh tissue.

Ebola Zaire.

Fax it to Carter immediately

and include the image
of the exploded cells.

Ask 'em if people have
been getting sick around here.

He said, "The forest is bleeding".

I don't think you understand

what we're really dealing with here.

Ebola spreads easily.

Anyone handling blood, feces,
vomit, any bodily fluids.

How many workers in
your facility right now

fit that description?

Not feeling well, Bruce?

Just a headache.

You need to let me get in there today,

make sure that it's contained and

that it doesn't spread
to the other primates.

Who in the hell are you?

I found a sick monkey in another cell.

We didn't catch it in time.

These people burned themselves

and their village to contain this thing.

Wait, please!

Hold on!

We need, we need samples, please!

It's still out there somewhere,
and we're gonna find it.

- Are you sure those soldiers
- _

- didn't set fire to the village themselves?
- _

Like, you know, some
kind of turf war, maybe?

I mean, how do we even know
those people were really sick?

They were sick. You could smell it.

Head office is gonna love this.

No blood sample,

and the only doctor who knew anything

is lying in a pile of ashes.

So, now what?

We tell the nuns
they've lost their only doctor.

After that?

We figure something out.

It may not be exactly by the book.

Look, Carter. I want to keep this job.

So, we have to stick
to IDC procedures, okay?

You find any, you let me know.

_

Where is everybody?

What happened here?

Not certain.

The local soldiers have
quarantined the hospital.

Doctor Adogo.

Melinda Danport with
International Aid Relief.

We bring the sisters supplies
whenever we have extra to spare.

Came in yesterday to
find this fascist fiasco.

Wade Carter. Travis Rhodes.

- We're with International Disease Control.
- IDC?

Perhaps you can make a few calls
so these men will let us through...

_

What about the Sisters?
Has anyone talked to them?

They cannot come further than the porch.

Quarantine.

No one has been in or
out in two-three days.

We heard some screams yesterday

but nothing for a few hours now.

Tell him the General sent us.

We came on his private plane.

He expects us to report back.

And I want his name.

_

_

_

Nzembo Lunga.

Nzembo Lunga.

Okay. We can pass.

Let me take these up for you.

Thank you.

What did he say?

He says we can enter and exit,

but he's under orders to shoot
anyone else who comes out.

Sister?

Do you remember we spoke to
Sister Monica a few days ago?

We went to the village
where Dr. Ewonda went, he...

I'm sorry to tell you that...

he passed away.

The, the whole village was burned.

Sister?

Where is Sister Monica?

Don't go in there.

Carter.

Sister Monica?

Sister Monica?

Sister Monica, can you hear us?

We're here to help.

Sister Monica?

Oh, Jesus!

So sorry to bother you at home, Sir.

We couldn't reach Colonel Tucker.

General Dwyer, this is Wade Carter.

We sterilized Cell H, but as
Carter was leaving the facility...

I found one more
infected monkey in another cell.

- How sure are you?
- 100%

And there's probably
more. It's "jumped".

It "spread". We
didn't contain it in time.

We need to get in there with a team,

euthanize the infected monkeys
and sterilize the premises.

Any chance this has
been transmitted to people?

We don't know yet.

But I've dealt with Zaire before,

it's best to quarantine the
workers to be safe.

I get Nancy brought
you in for your experience,

but you've got one hell of
a reputation, Dr. Carter.

Keep a low profile.

Everything you do
lands on her shoulders.

Should we contact the WHO?

Yeah, but they're so
bogged down with political hacks,

Santa'll leave the North Pole before

they can scramble a team together.

What about the CDC?

I'll call them,

but they don't have a vet department
under an hour away like we do.

And they can't handle a
mission as dangerous as this.

Don't worry, Sir.

We will plan every detail
and follow military protocol.

Colonel.

Modern day Army's never contained

an outbreak on U.S.
soil like this before.

There is no protocol.

_

I told my wife. I told her everything.

You what?

Look, she deserves to know, all right?

I'm-I'm sure that you understand.

No. Not really, Ben.

Let me guess. Was she freaked out?

Yeah, she's terrified!

She thinks I have it,
th-that I could pass it.

Great. You know, this is just great.

I hope you know she's
gonna tell everyone.

No, she is not.

Look, I told her to stay inside,

and to keep the kids home from school.

But maybe they should come in and
we should test their blood, too.

And set off alarms all over this place?

Alarms? Who cares about alarms?

I want to keep my family alive.

Look, Ben, it doesn't
transmit that easily. Okay?

It's not like we chugged a bottle of it.

We just waived our hands over it.

For God's sakes, there's a
whole team of workers tha...

Shoveling monkey crap all
day, they don't have it!

Okay. All right, all right, all right...

You're probably right.

Prob... Do you want to start a panic?

You want to get the base shut down?

You know, publicly embarrassing the Army

doesn't usually end that well.

She's not gonna say anything.

Yeah, how can you be 100% sure?

You ready?

I have no road map.

I mean, no protocols?

Out of all the agencies that
are set up to protect us,

why are we not more prepared?

It's never been at our back door before.

There's only one reason
people do anything in this world.

Fear.

I've been in your shoes.

Really?

Juggling a burgeoning
outbreak and two kids,

houseful of pets and a husband?

I mean going in for the first time.

All these labs here, military
hierarchy, it can trick you.

Makes you think there's
an order to the world.

_

Hey, Walt.

The hell's happening with my monkeys?

And what happened in Cell H?

Did they clean it out?

Yeah.

One of my boys called me last night

and said there was some
man here in full gear.

Oh, that-that-that was, uh,

- uh, that was just a precautionary...
- Oh, cut the crap.

What, are you gonna
tell me it's still SHF?

People don't wear space
suits if it's just SHF.

Bruce?

What the hell?

Bruce?

- Frank.
- You feeling okay?

Ebola?

What the hell. I never heard of it.

Has he come in contact
with feces or monkey fluids?

What are you talking about?

Of course, he did.

That's his job, it's all our jobs.

I must've touched six dead monkeys
in the past two days, myself.

Don't you bleach everything?

Corporate guidelines
say you're supposed to...

Oh, the guidelines don't say anything

about a damn hazmat suit.

Don't turn this around on us!

How does this thing spread?

Urine. Feces. Sweat.

Pretty much a, anything you touch.

Why in the hell didn't you tell us

to take extra precautions?

They told me that they exterminated

every cell in that room.

Every living cell.

My God, Walt.

I've gotta tell my guys to go home,

- I gotta get 'em out of here.
- No, no, no, no, no.

Wait, just hold on a second.

Hazleton's gonna come down on us

like a ton of bricks when they find out

that we went to the Army.

We? I wasn't in on that.

Oh, the Colonel just magically had

four monkeys appear in her trunk?

It's gonna be okay.

The Army wouldn't just walk away
if there was still a threat. Right?

It's much more likely he's
hungover or had some bad chicken.

We don't even know if he has a fever.

Well, that could be.

So let's, let's just,
let's take his temperature

before we get into all kinds of panic.

We'll just get a thermometer.

- I can't.
- Why not?

They're all rectal.
We used 'em on the monkeys.

On sale this week through Sunday.

If you're not already a member,

please see one of our helpful sales
associates to sign up today.

Pharmacy, you have a call on line 1.

Pharmacy, you have a call on line 1.

Oh...

$2.87.

Uh, just keep the change.

Do you want a bag?

Uh, yeah.

Thank you.

This is Colonel Jaax.

It's Walter Humbolt from Hazleton.

We've got a problem.

Nancy?

We got a call from Reston.

A worker has a fever, it may
have spilled over to humans.

Are there any other symptoms?

We don't know yet.

Just get ready.

You may have hot samples coming in.

_

Um, could I have everyone's attention?

We have some mandatory training,

which will begin shortly.

Um, if I could just have everybody

head upstairs and hang tight for a bit.

Did someone call my wife?

We'll notify her.

Just close your eyes,
take a deep breath.

Trust me, it'll help.

We'll be back for the other workers.

Do not let them go home!

Evacuate the hallway.

Sir, you need to get
out of the vicinity.

I'm Colonel Jaax, U.S. Army.

You need to get out of here.

Carter?

Travis Rhodes, CDC.

I'll be taking it from here.

The CDC doesn't
have a quarantine facility

anywhere near here.

And the Army doesn't have jurisdiction

over a private facility.

Carter?

I just want you to know we've been

cooperating fully with the Army.

Who were kind enough
to let us know as they went in.

This isn't a pissing contest.

Look, we have to move fast.

I don't know what the problem is,

there's only one right thing to do here.

Ready?

On you.

This is insane.

You need to warn the hospital.

I know what precautions to take.

But let's look at the facts.

Shortness of breath. Nausea. Vomiting.

Could all be symptoms
of any number of things,

including heart attack.

Don't be an idiot.

Don't jump to conclusions.

Neither of you are medical doctors.

No one did an exam or even
tested the patient's blood.

You sound an alarm like this,

it'll be heard all across the city.

You can't allow that
ambulance to dock at a local ER.

I am sure you had to work
twice as hard for those stripes.

I would keep your loose
cannon the hell away from me.

We have compelling
evidence that the agent is alive

and replicating in that facility.

You have nothing
more than a faint green glow

and a even fainter
understanding of the panic

that you would be
thoughtlessly unleashing.

Did your ego get so big

you're willing to kill a man for it?

Look, his nurses, his doctors,

they must wear protective gear.

You know damn well
if this is what you say it is,

this entire neighborhood
would be strewn with bodies.

There was no way to help her.

I'm really sorry.

I don't understand.

Nobody was sick when
we came through here.

He brought the "death plague".

Who did?

The schoolmaster, he was very sick.

Who was the-the next one to get sick?

One of the pregnant ones.

There's six bodies over
there, how many were pregnant?

Two.

They come for vitamin shots to
give them strength for birth.

Carter?

That first day we were here,

they were giving shots to what?

40, 50 people?

Well, there's only a
handful of needles here.

They probably dumped
the trash since then.

No, the gum wrappers from the packs

we brought are halfway down.

This thing hasn't been emptied in weeks.

Did the schoolmaster get vitamin shots?

How often do you change needles?

We change them every one or two days.

Do you sterilize them?

Of course. We rinse them,
several times a day.

Do you think we...

I'm sure it was already spreading.

Carter?

Sister, get back on the porch.

Go back! Go back! Go back!

We have 236 bottles of rompun.

- Should be plenty.
- Okay.

Hi.

Hey. Hey, we have
a lot of backup supplies

but I don't have enough ketamine
for more than 40, 50 monkeys.

I've got officers coming out of my ears.

I just need my husband right now.

What happened?

CDC showed up, pushed us out.

They sent that worker to the hospital.

Civilian hospital?

Well, what's the read on
the guy's blood? Is he positive?

Well, we haven't even
gotten any samples yet.

I don't know.

I mean, they're supposed
to send us one for testing.

You were... in your racal, right?

Of course I was.

I wasn't even in there
for more than ten minutes.

So Tucker has wrangled a meeting,

he wants me to stand up
in front of the top brass,

the CDC, even the Pentagon guys

and somehow convince
them to give us the keys.

Well, if anyone can...

Yeah, but we don't have the time.

- Hey, Nancy.
- Hey.

I mean, they want me to xerox

a bunch of charts for these guys

when this thing could be ripping
through the suburbs already.

What does Carter think?

Carter thinks this could be the biggest

catastrophe in U.S. history.

Nancy. He can't say that.

I know, not publicly.

Look, I know he's the
expert and everything, but

you gotta protect yourself.

But they don't understand.

If we don't move in now,
it could be too late.

You always have to fight so hard.

So, look, why don't you just
go in there, and show those guys

what they're dealing with?

Mainly you.

Yeah. I can do that.

Thanks.

Sorry, I know I gotta
trust the gear, it's just...

- kids.
- Of course.

Can never be too careful.

It'll be over soon.

What do you think the chances
are that the worker has it?

Look, this guy
cleaned their cages, right?

He fed them.

I don't know, maybe
he even got scratched.

Comes back positive, it
doesn't mean anything.

Peter. Your girlfriend's on her way up.

What? No, no, no, no, no, no...

Hey.

Sorry, it's, uh, no
unauthorized personnel allowed

inside the lab, so...

Good to see you, too.

Hey, did you do, like,
a hair thing or something?

- It's, you look great.
- Where the hell have you been?

I have been paging you for two days.

I'm sorry. Ah, crap.

It's, like, just been
on this insane deadline.

I went by your place,

I saw the car in the
drive, I got worried.

Yeah, well, I took the commuter and

then I just kind of biked it from there.

I'm sorry, I didn't
mean to freak you out.

Are you coming over tonight?

Um, yeah. No, I mean,

I, you know, I want to, but...

Yeah, we're just about to
test this blood, and, you know,

who knows what we're gonna find.

Can you, uh?

Look, something happened,

and, um,

I just, you know, I need
to stay here with Ben

until we figure it out,

so, you know, orders.

You know the last time

- you went AWOL...
- No, no, no.

Come on. It's nothing like that.

It's, I was mixed up, and yeah,
I didn't know what I wanted...

then.

You won't walk into the Cineplex

if we show up two minutes late.

That is not a guy who loses track
of his fiancée for two days.

Yeah, I didn't want to scare her.

Right.

All right, let's...

see what's up with this guy.

_

Do we have this right?

You went in on your own,

- in the face of a deadly pathogen,
- _

and this is the first
we're hearing about it?

That's correct.

Since its discovery,

this virus has been isolated
in remote regions of Africa.

Today, it is 20 minutes outside
a metropolis of six million.

The Ebola virus enters the body's cells

and uses the cells' own machinery

to reproduce itself.

The cells bulge with the
newly assembled viruses

until it floods into the body,

and the whole thing
starts all over again.

There is a mortality rate of 90%.

Is it anything like AIDS?

It's easier to contract,

because it is spread through
most bodily fluids, even sweat.

Caretakers are usually
the first to contract

and propagate the virus.

With every hour,
this disease is incubating

and possibly spreading in
the Hazleton facility.

We need to get in there and
euthanize all the animals.

What about the asymptomatic ones?

Unfortunately, many of
the monkeys may be carriers.

Too big a risk to keep them alive.

Why not just gas the place?

Well, that would
be easier, but less humane.

Look, we don't get many
chances to study this virus.

We need to take samples,
to look for a cure.

That's a huge operation.

You'd be putting our soldiers at risk.

True.

But the Army is better
equipped to handle

a level four hot agent than
most local hospitals,

which is where infected
people will start showing up

if we don't contain it.

Are you prepared for
an outbreak like this?

Colonel, are you 100% certain

your samples contain Ebola Zaire?

Well, you can never be 100% certain...

Even if the test glows green,

it is possible that
whatever virus you have is

simply reacting to your Ebola
test and not actually Ebola Zaire,

is it not?

- Well, it's possible but...
- And you want to trigger

hundreds of millions of Federal funding,

and start a widespread panic

when we don't even have one
single confirmed human case.

There are more reasonable
responses at this point.

With all due respect...

You have no experience in the field.

And that is why I brought in the best

emerging infectious disease expert.

The CDC is the global expert
on emerging infectious diseases.

So what happened
with your response to AIDS?

We were the first to
publish a report on these epidem...

People had been tracking that for years.

You let a generation of hemophiliacs

and the gay community
tackle the first blows alone.

90,000 people died in this country.

- Colonel.
- Carter.

Like it or not, the virus is here.

And we can't afford to be the people

that stood by and did nothing because

we were too scared to pull the trigger.

Jahrling?

You have the results
of that sick employee?

Uh, there were no viruses detected.

Thank you, that's
exactly what I'm talking about.

There's an incubation window.

It's airborne.

That is entirely unfounded.

A careless, unsubstantiated claim.

Go on, Nance.

It's not entirely unsubstantiated.

Several years ago,
there was a trial done.

It showed the virus
infecting the monkeys

with no interaction with the hot agent.

Other than air circulation.

You can imagine just one infected
person entering a public space.

A D.C. subway, for example.

One sneeze, and a million hot
particles could be dispersed.

It can sweep the population

before we would have a
chance to shut down the city.

Bottom line,

you don't have the manpower
to euthanize those monkeys

and decon the building.

Take the monkey house.

But precedent places us in charge

of any possible human exposures.

None of that may matter.

I just got word.

Hazleton's consulting their lawyers.

We're stalled until they
officially allow access.

Well, we have to move on some plan.

If it hasn't jumped to humans
yet, we've just been lucky.

_

_

- She wasn't alone.
- Who?

One of the victims came for shots

with another expectant
mother from her village.

It looks like they both
left hospital to head home...

when a day into their journey,

one of them wasn't
feeling well and came back.

Died four days later.

I wonder if the other
woman made it there.

M-Matambwe Village.

Well, when we get back to
Kinshasa and send off the sample,

then we can call HQ and
have them send out a team.

No one is coming. There isn't time.

What are you doing?

Getting your ass
and mine to that village.

They may already be in
the midst of an outbreak.

Our mission was to get a blood sample.

We have one.

We're supposed to turn it
over as quick as possible.

Besides, if they're using dirty needles,

then there could be 100 people infected.

You're right, but
we only got a lead on one.

And we're following it.

Dr. Adogo.

Yes?

We need to get to Matambwe Village.

No, man, th-the, the roads
are washed out north of here.

Rainy season.

There are other ways to get there.

It's not exactly IDC regulation, but...

We need to hire a chopper to Matambwe.

300, US.

It's only 40 to Bumba.
Ten times the distance.

Hundred each way.

Mm-mm.

Okay, then we'll find another pilot

who will do it for the same price.

Okay, okay.

But I'm gonna have to drop
you, then come back later.

I got a job tomorrow.

Carter.

This is insane.

You can't ask me or her

to get in some rickety chopper
with a drunk at the controls.

Then don't come.

What?

You don't even know if that
woman made it back to her village.

There's a deadly virus,

and there's an infected person
heading for a populated area.

And us getting that sample back to HQ

is the best hope those
people would have.

It'll take months,

years, for them to do anything
useful with that sample,

we're the only line of defense.

You have no idea
what you're getting into.

Just the three of us.

We'll be hundreds of miles
from the nearest town.

We could be stranded out there.

We could be the next victims.

What good would that do?

We haven't seen it navigate

through the human body from the start.

What's the incubation period?

The first symptom? The second?

You've been hunting
viruses for two decades.

Running all over the globe.

Probably hard to keep
a relationship going.

Did you ever want to have kids, Carter?

No.

No, my guess is...

that you sacrificed a
lot to be right here.

On the precipice.

The one who could name
the next killer disease.

You saw how that virus
burned through that hospital.

This is something new.

If you think you can maneuver
your way out of Zaire without me,

good luck.

Colonel Jaax.

I would be remiss not to
warn you about your partner.

There's a lot there you don't know.

I studied under Carter.

I know him pretty well.

Then you must recognize
he'll do whatever it takes

to draw attention to that virus.

Well, somebody has to.

He'll sacrifice anything and anyone.

Thank you for the warning.

But from where I'm standing,
he's made no mistakes.

And you think I have.

So, calling out "airborne"

just to cause hysteria in a
meeting where you obviously

weren't prepared for it,
that wasn't a mistake?

He always has an agenda.

You'd be smart to figure out

what it is before you
become a casualty in it.

I don't know what went on with you two,

but I can't afford to let it
influence what I do now.

- You okay?
- Yes, I'm fine.

Any word on Domanski from the hospital?

You can shut the door.

Was it your idea?

Turning it over to the lawyers?

Of course not. It's my guys in there.

You think I don't want them cared for?

They want me to shut down tonight.

All of those animals are
gonna starve to death.

I can't go against orders.

I went behind their
backs to get you in the first time.

Board was not exactly
thrilled with that decision.

Then try something else.

They're trying to do the right thing,

but allowing more people in is a
lot of liability, safety concerns.

And you can bet the military

isn't gonna take the
heat for any of this.

Well, there's other ways to speed it up.

Put pressure on them.

From the outside.

Washington Post. Metro desk.

The destructive force of a filovirus

is its ability to destroy
the human body so quickly.

Since its discovery,

it has been isolated to
remote regions of Africa.

But its ability to
proliferate is astonishing.

Predicting the behavior of these
viruses is enormously challenging.

We now know the virus spreads
throughout the body...

Yeah, I need an address
in the Reston, Virginia area.

Unlike a complex,
double-stranded DNA virus,

filoviruses are RNA-based,
made up of ribonucleic acids.

They mutate and evolve faster than...

- Peter?
- Almost anything else...

on planet earth,

causing them to act
in unpredictable ways.

A filovirus was detected two
years ago when a teenage boy,

caught it on holiday with his family.

The perfectly healthy boy
died just a few days later.

Oh!

- Hey.
- Hey.

I was going stir-crazy sitting there.

Waiting for the go-ahead.

I know this thing is
getting under your skin.

I just thought if I could see him

that maybe it would make me less...

I don't know.

No, no, it's me. I, I know better.

I was overreacting, I'm sorry.

It's just, uh, it really
hit home this time.

Why don't you get out of the car?

He'd be happy to see you.

You've always been
so protective over them.

It's part of why I love you so much.

Well, it sounds like
the whole thing might be over.

Our part of it, anyway,

I heard it's, uh,
it's still out of our hands.

Not for long.

Well, why do you say that?

I went to Humbolt.

I think he leaked the story to the Post.

They called the General
for an interview,

which means they
probably called Hazleton.

If I were to guess, I think
we're heading in tomorrow.

Was it your idea?

I told you I didn't
want you going in there.

It's not the monster I've seen before.

And that scares the life out of me.

It should scare you too!
