Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:08,573 --> 00:00:10,445
Previously
on The Hot Zone Anthrax.
2
00:00:10,532 --> 00:00:11,794
Usually when
you gets the flu,
3
00:00:11,881 --> 00:00:13,317
it just passes
in a day or two.
4
00:00:13,404 --> 00:00:15,363
This doesn't
present like a flu.
5
00:00:15,450 --> 00:00:16,451
Bruce, we
got some samples
coming in from Florida.
6
00:00:16,538 --> 00:00:17,843
Not it!
7
00:00:17,930 --> 00:00:19,715
We need
an anthrax expert.
8
00:00:19,802 --> 00:00:21,673
Patient's spinal fluid
showed rod-like bacteria.
9
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:23,501
You better call the FBI.
10
00:00:23,588 --> 00:00:26,026
Anthrax uses its
host as a live incubator and
11
00:00:26,113 --> 00:00:29,377
95% of confirmed cases
worldwide are cutaneous,
12
00:00:29,464 --> 00:00:32,771
which means it gets into a
cut where someone touches it.
13
00:00:32,858 --> 00:00:35,470
But Bob Stevens inhaled it,
14
00:00:35,557 --> 00:00:37,907
which is insanely rare
unless it's aerosolized.
15
00:00:37,994 --> 00:00:39,517
I don't think AMI
was the only media attack.
16
00:00:39,604 --> 00:00:41,389
What do you mean?
17
00:00:41,476 --> 00:00:42,955
The doctor thought
it was just a spider bite.
18
00:00:43,043 --> 00:00:45,045
And tragic news,
19
00:00:45,132 --> 00:00:46,568
we've just learned that photo
editor Robert Stevens has died
20
00:00:46,655 --> 00:00:48,178
from his anthrax exposure.
21
00:00:48,265 --> 00:00:49,223
Results came back.
22
00:00:49,310 --> 00:00:50,224
It's Ames.
23
00:00:50,311 --> 00:00:52,443
Ames stream?
24
00:00:52,530 --> 00:00:53,357
I didn't think it
existed outside a
high-security research labs.
25
00:00:53,444 --> 00:00:54,532
It doesn't.
26
00:01:01,887 --> 00:01:04,107
Hey, did somebody just
pass you guys on the hallway?
27
00:01:04,194 --> 00:01:05,500
No,
didn't see anyone.
28
00:01:05,587 --> 00:01:07,023
Really?
29
00:01:48,282 --> 00:01:50,022
Shelly,
get out of there!
30
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:51,459
Come on, the plane just
hit the World Trade Center.
31
00:01:51,546 --> 00:01:53,635
We got to go now.
We could be next.
32
00:01:53,722 --> 00:01:54,636
Come on people, get
out of there, go, go, go.
33
00:01:54,723 --> 00:01:55,854
Everybody out.
34
00:01:55,941 --> 00:01:57,247
Come on, we got to evacuate.
35
00:01:57,334 --> 00:01:58,335
We need shelter,
get off the phone.
36
00:01:58,422 --> 00:02:00,163
New York City is under attack.
37
00:02:00,250 --> 00:02:01,556
Some plane just hit the
World Trade Center, all right.
38
00:02:01,643 --> 00:02:03,210
They're alerting
all military bases.
39
00:02:03,297 --> 00:02:04,602
We could be next.
Come on guys, get out, guys!
40
00:02:04,689 --> 00:02:05,734
Go! Go ahead, just
leave your stuff.
41
00:02:05,821 --> 00:02:06,952
Out, out, out, out, right out.
42
00:02:07,039 --> 00:02:09,912
Move, move, move, move, move.
43
00:02:09,999 --> 00:02:13,220
For
us to tell exactly how
large an aircraft it is
44
00:02:13,307 --> 00:02:16,614
there or whether or
not that was intentional, um.
45
00:02:16,701 --> 00:02:18,790
Go ahead, I'm sorry.
46
00:02:18,877 --> 00:02:20,792
FAA is banning all
departures nationwide for any
47
00:02:20,879 --> 00:02:22,968
flights heading
through NYC airspace.
48
00:02:23,055 --> 00:02:24,666
And what
about the 3,300 flights
already in the air?
49
00:02:24,753 --> 00:02:25,841
Who's got NORAD on their line?
50
00:02:25,928 --> 00:02:27,321
What do we know?
51
00:02:27,408 --> 00:02:28,800
Passenger
list is already in,
52
00:02:28,887 --> 00:02:30,541
names of interest
are being looked into,
53
00:02:30,628 --> 00:02:32,369
but we're still waiting
on the cargo manifests.
54
00:02:32,456 --> 00:02:34,110
Oh, these guys wouldn't
have any check luggage.
55
00:02:34,197 --> 00:02:35,938
Anything they need they
would already had on them.
56
00:02:36,025 --> 00:02:37,896
Still, we can't rule out
the potential of a bio-agent.
57
00:02:37,983 --> 00:02:39,855
These planes could've been
used as a method of dispersal.
58
00:02:39,942 --> 00:02:41,378
Hit the highest
point in the city,
59
00:02:41,465 --> 00:02:42,814
let gravity do the rest.
60
00:02:42,901 --> 00:02:44,599
Get the Hazmat
units mobilized.
61
00:02:44,686 --> 00:02:47,863
I'll start running
it up the chain.
62
00:02:47,950 --> 00:02:49,908
As reports came in,
that the first hijack.
63
00:02:49,995 --> 00:02:51,649
Yeah, this is Ryker.
64
00:02:51,736 --> 00:02:53,782
We're on the road.
We're on our way to New York.
65
00:02:53,869 --> 00:02:55,740
No, you have to wait. No.
66
00:02:55,827 --> 00:02:57,438
Until I can get
a team on the ground,
67
00:02:57,525 --> 00:02:59,091
we can't rule out some
sort of biological threat.
68
00:02:59,179 --> 00:03:00,832
Both towers of the
69
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,007
World Trade Center
have been hit by large...
70
00:03:02,094 --> 00:03:02,834
You got
to be kidding me.
71
00:03:04,053 --> 00:03:05,837
Come on, let's move!
72
00:03:05,924 --> 00:03:08,884
Yes,
extreme heat can destroy
a toxin like botulinum,
73
00:03:08,971 --> 00:03:11,800
but the spores
that produce the
toxic are heat resistant.
74
00:03:11,887 --> 00:03:12,931
Yes.
75
00:03:23,072 --> 00:03:25,466
Oh, my God.
It's headed right for...
76
00:03:25,553 --> 00:03:26,902
The Pentagon.
77
00:04:05,897 --> 00:04:08,900
Oh. Oh, sir.
78
00:04:08,987 --> 00:04:10,946
I need you to please
return to your seat.
79
00:04:11,033 --> 00:04:12,339
Sorry.
80
00:04:22,653 --> 00:04:24,786
You can't even stretch
your legs on a flight anymore.
81
00:04:27,092 --> 00:04:28,920
Terrorists brought us
all right to the edge.
82
00:04:35,318 --> 00:04:37,059
So you
think it's related?
83
00:04:37,146 --> 00:04:39,888
This new anthrax case at NBC?
84
00:04:39,975 --> 00:04:43,021
Related to what, 9/11
or the anthrax in Florida?
85
00:04:43,108 --> 00:04:44,849
Florida.
86
00:04:44,936 --> 00:04:48,592
Already know the answer to
Al-Qaeda is a big old yes.
87
00:04:48,679 --> 00:04:50,899
Well, there hasn't been
a case of inhalational anthrax
88
00:04:50,986 --> 00:04:55,207
since 1976 and suddenly
you start seeing them?
89
00:04:55,295 --> 00:04:56,861
It's all got to be connected.
90
00:04:56,948 --> 00:04:58,472
So that's
an affirmative?
91
00:04:58,559 --> 00:05:02,258
Uh, no.
That's a working hypothesis.
92
00:05:02,345 --> 00:05:05,305
Start with the obvious but
can't know more until we get
93
00:05:05,392 --> 00:05:06,741
some actual evidence.
94
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,747
Osama Bin Laden continues to
95
00:05:12,834 --> 00:05:16,228
make threats
against America and our
allies all over the world.
96
00:05:16,316 --> 00:05:19,493
But it has not hampered
the military's response.
97
00:05:19,580 --> 00:05:23,671
Tonight, correspondent
Michael Smith has this report.
98
00:05:23,758 --> 00:05:27,457
After
the airing of two shocking
tapes made by Bin Laden,
99
00:05:27,544 --> 00:05:29,546
and then another
by his followers,
100
00:05:29,633 --> 00:05:33,463
the administration has asked
the networks for restraint in
101
00:05:33,550 --> 00:05:35,073
coverage of this crisis.
102
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,293
Uh, thanks
for agreeing to see me.
103
00:05:37,380 --> 00:05:40,209
I'm Dr. Marci Layton from
the Department of Health.
104
00:05:40,296 --> 00:05:42,124
How are you
doing Ms. O'Connor?
105
00:05:42,211 --> 00:05:44,169
How do you think?
106
00:05:46,084 --> 00:05:49,218
The guy in Florida, he
died in days, didn't he?
107
00:05:49,305 --> 00:05:51,220
Unfortunately, yes.
108
00:05:51,307 --> 00:05:55,529
However, I understand you went
to see your doctor a week ago?
109
00:05:55,616 --> 00:05:57,835
Thought it was a spider bite,
put you on Cipro?
110
00:05:57,922 --> 00:05:59,968
Mm-hmm.
Okay. That's good.
111
00:06:00,055 --> 00:06:03,580
If it is anthrax, Cipro is
our best defense against it.
112
00:06:07,410 --> 00:06:10,587
In
five, four, three...
113
00:06:10,674 --> 00:06:12,937
Intelligence
related to terrorism.
114
00:06:13,024 --> 00:06:15,462
After six years
serving as Governor of
the State of Pennsylvania,
115
00:06:15,549 --> 00:06:17,942
Tom Ridge has retired.
116
00:06:18,029 --> 00:06:21,337
Do you remember
opening any mail or a package
117
00:06:21,424 --> 00:06:24,296
that may have contained
some sort of a powder?
118
00:06:24,384 --> 00:06:28,562
Uh, the mail in
question likely
arrived a week or two ago.
119
00:06:28,649 --> 00:06:30,912
Casey and
I open mail all day.
120
00:06:30,999 --> 00:06:32,957
I can't, I
can't remember if...
121
00:06:34,872 --> 00:06:35,960
Memory
could be a tricky thing,
122
00:06:36,047 --> 00:06:37,309
just take a breath, okay?
123
00:06:39,921 --> 00:06:42,445
If there was a piece
of mail that was flagged,
124
00:06:42,532 --> 00:06:45,013
something seemed
off or threatening,
125
00:06:45,100 --> 00:06:47,711
who would you have alerted?
126
00:06:47,798 --> 00:06:52,673
I would, uh,
I'd contact security.
127
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,588
Okay.
128
00:06:54,675 --> 00:06:56,807
Now think back to the last
time you called security about
129
00:06:56,894 --> 00:07:02,291
something suspicious, maybe
there was a particular phrase,
130
00:07:02,378 --> 00:07:06,251
or message, a color?
131
00:07:09,254 --> 00:07:11,039
A green bag.
132
00:07:11,126 --> 00:07:14,869
The, yeah, the last time I
called security on a letter,
133
00:07:14,956 --> 00:07:17,872
they took it away in
a green shopping bag.
134
00:07:27,316 --> 00:07:29,405
Agent Ryker?
Yes.
135
00:07:29,492 --> 00:07:31,363
Agent Moore?
How's it going?
136
00:07:31,451 --> 00:07:33,017
I'm Dr. Layton,
New York's Public Health
137
00:07:33,104 --> 00:07:35,237
Director of
Communicable Diseases.
138
00:07:35,324 --> 00:07:37,413
Apologies for the
rushed retrieval but with
139
00:07:37,500 --> 00:07:39,807
one nightmare
scenario after another,
140
00:07:39,894 --> 00:07:42,287
didn't have time to wait
around for your baggage claim.
141
00:07:42,374 --> 00:07:45,203
So, I saw O'Connor's wound.
142
00:07:45,290 --> 00:07:47,902
Necrotic eschars?
Yeah.
143
00:07:47,989 --> 00:07:50,382
It sure looks like cutaneous
anthrax lesion to me.
144
00:07:50,470 --> 00:07:52,254
Okay.
Did they find the
letter or the envelope,
145
00:07:52,341 --> 00:07:53,864
however the anthrax
was delivered?
146
00:07:53,951 --> 00:07:55,953
No, not yet.
But it's been flagged.
147
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,651
It should be in the building.
148
00:07:57,738 --> 00:07:59,348
Good.
We need to get
our hands on it.
149
00:07:59,435 --> 00:08:03,700
All the mail at
AMI was incinerated.
150
00:08:03,787 --> 00:08:08,009
Info on 30 Rock, it's
where NBC News is located.
151
00:08:08,096 --> 00:08:09,532
It's not your
typical office building,
152
00:08:09,619 --> 00:08:11,273
massive tourist destination,
153
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,449
iconic landmark.
154
00:08:13,536 --> 00:08:15,712
When were you
first alerted to the
situation over at NBC?
155
00:08:15,799 --> 00:08:18,149
Late last night.
156
00:08:18,236 --> 00:08:20,587
Took Tom Brokaw calling
half New York to get the
situation taken seriously.
157
00:08:22,371 --> 00:08:24,634
Ground Zero.
158
00:08:30,118 --> 00:08:31,989
30 days.
159
00:08:35,297 --> 00:08:37,168
Still burning.
160
00:08:39,954 --> 00:08:41,608
We call
it Hell's Chimney.
161
00:09:08,460 --> 00:09:10,332
The
United States Government
162
00:09:10,419 --> 00:09:12,856
says you should be on alert
because new terror attacks
163
00:09:12,943 --> 00:09:15,163
could come at any moment.
164
00:09:15,250 --> 00:09:16,817
The enemy is hidden,
the enemy is very often
165
00:09:16,904 --> 00:09:18,732
right here within
our own country.
166
00:09:18,819 --> 00:09:20,211
Law
enforcement nationwide has
167
00:09:20,298 --> 00:09:22,126
been put on the
highest state of alert.
168
00:09:22,213 --> 00:09:23,563
National Guard troops are
169
00:09:23,650 --> 00:09:25,260
stationed
throughout the airport.
170
00:09:25,347 --> 00:09:27,001
Operation enduring.
171
00:09:27,088 --> 00:09:28,785
I want justice.
172
00:09:28,872 --> 00:09:30,918
Kill and demoralized.
173
00:09:31,005 --> 00:09:32,484
Front
lines in Northern Afghanistan,
174
00:09:32,572 --> 00:09:34,225
direct hit from
laser guided bombs.
175
00:09:34,312 --> 00:09:36,140
Explosions were heard

Dr. Layton said he
was on his way over.

00:11:40,134 --> 00:11:41,396
You're talking
to him, Mr. Brokaw.
207
00:11:41,483 --> 00:11:43,006
I'm Special
agent Matthew Ryker.
208
00:11:43,093 --> 00:11:44,442
Oh, Agent Ryker,
my assistant called
209
00:11:44,529 --> 00:11:46,140
authorities days ago.
210
00:11:46,227 --> 00:11:49,709
And apparently testing
is log-jammed and I'm...
211
00:11:49,796 --> 00:11:52,363
for the life of me, trying to
figure out why it is that this
212
00:11:52,450 --> 00:11:54,104
is not a higher priority.
213
00:11:54,191 --> 00:11:55,802
Well, it's my
understanding that the CDC's
214
00:11:55,889 --> 00:11:57,804
been swamped with
samples from Florida. But I...
215
00:11:57,891 --> 00:11:59,153
Now listen, I've
had enough of that, okay?
216
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:00,676
And no action.
217
00:12:00,763 --> 00:12:02,069
I've got a sick
employee upstairs and
218
00:12:02,156 --> 00:12:03,723
we've had enough
of the runaround.
219
00:12:03,810 --> 00:12:06,247
We still don't
know what Erin has.
220
00:12:06,334 --> 00:12:08,249
Well, I
just flew in from D.C.
221
00:12:08,336 --> 00:12:09,946
I've only been on the ground
a couple of hours but we have
222
00:12:10,033 --> 00:12:11,600
the best minds in
the field working on it.
223
00:12:11,687 --> 00:12:13,254
I've pulled them
out of bed to do it.
224
00:12:13,341 --> 00:12:15,386
And Dr. Layton will
make sure the CDC's on it.
225
00:12:15,473 --> 00:12:17,258
You should have
results by tomorrow.
226
00:12:17,345 --> 00:12:19,477
Hmm.
227
00:12:19,564 --> 00:12:23,220
Well, I'm trusting
you agent because my
next call is to Ashcroft.
228
00:12:23,307 --> 00:12:24,482
Excuse me.
229
00:12:29,052 --> 00:12:30,706
You think he's just
worried about his assistant?
230
00:12:30,793 --> 00:12:33,230
No, he's right.
231
00:12:33,317 --> 00:12:35,058
But this thing will start
going sideways fast if
232
00:12:35,145 --> 00:12:37,365
we start taking special
consideration to big titles.
233
00:12:37,452 --> 00:12:39,323
Copy that.
234
00:12:39,410 --> 00:12:42,500
Elevators are just
around the corner.
235
00:12:42,587 --> 00:12:44,067
Until we find a source,
236
00:12:44,154 --> 00:12:46,069
we need to shut down
the entire building.
237
00:12:46,156 --> 00:12:47,201
Whoa, whoa, whoa, I
thought you just said we were
238
00:12:47,288 --> 00:12:48,985
just here as a specialist?
239
00:12:49,072 --> 00:12:50,073
As a specialist,
I'm telling you we need to
240
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,335
shut the building down.
241
00:12:51,422 --> 00:12:53,337
On whose authority?
242
00:12:53,424 --> 00:12:54,817
Just tell everyone this
investigation now falls under
243
00:12:54,904 --> 00:12:57,559
Operation Noble Eagle.
244
00:12:57,646 --> 00:13:00,127
Hey, uh, should
we call Copak first?
245
00:13:00,214 --> 00:13:01,737
I mean, if we're gonna be
pulling the Presidential card?
246
00:13:01,824 --> 00:13:03,870
If not now, then when?
247
00:13:03,957 --> 00:13:06,437
Listen Sergeant,
somewhere in this
building is a lethal agent
248
00:13:06,524 --> 00:13:08,744
and we cannot let
anyone else be exposed.
249
00:13:12,922 --> 00:13:14,315
Which way?
250
00:13:14,402 --> 00:13:16,143
Uh, it's up
here to the right.
251
00:13:16,230 --> 00:13:18,841
Thousands of employees,
acres of office space.
252
00:13:18,928 --> 00:13:23,193
Any idea how much
mail must come through
a building like this?
253
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,282
Single letter is like
finding a needle in a...
254
00:13:29,896 --> 00:13:32,550
I'd prefer a haystack.
255
00:13:32,637 --> 00:13:34,248
I take it you're
the agent asking for me?
256
00:13:34,335 --> 00:13:36,076
What can I do for you?
257
00:13:36,163 --> 00:13:38,687
What's your
hate mail protocol?
258
00:13:38,774 --> 00:13:41,559
I wouldn't call
it much of a protocol.
259
00:13:41,646 --> 00:13:44,519
Any threatening letters get
funneled down through here.
260
00:13:44,606 --> 00:13:48,349
So you fellas
collect it for testing.
261
00:13:48,436 --> 00:13:51,439
It's a little backed up right
now because of Ground Zero.
262
00:13:54,224 --> 00:13:56,357
Chris, clear
out this whole area and
263
00:13:56,444 --> 00:13:58,141
let's get a
Hazmat team in here.
264
00:13:58,228 --> 00:14:00,056
We're gonna go through
every single piece of mail.
265
00:14:00,143 --> 00:14:01,710
That letter's got to
be in here somewhere.
266
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,206
Check everything carefully.
267
00:14:19,293 --> 00:14:22,339
The letter Erin opened has
to be here and if you find
268
00:14:22,426 --> 00:14:24,951
anything with powder,
stop immediately.
269
00:14:25,038 --> 00:14:26,996
We need to preserve all
the source as we can.
270
00:14:27,083 --> 00:14:28,476
This one has
a flagged corner.
271
00:14:28,563 --> 00:14:30,260
That's on the right.
272
00:14:30,347 --> 00:14:31,566
Right.
273
00:14:33,133 --> 00:14:35,613
Copy that.
274
00:14:35,700 --> 00:14:37,093
We're almost halfway
through the mail here, sir,
275
00:14:37,180 --> 00:14:39,226
still nothing.
276
00:14:52,021 --> 00:14:53,544
What the hell?
277
00:14:57,070 --> 00:15:00,116
Hey, hey.
278
00:15:00,203 --> 00:15:02,466
This building is contaminated.
279
00:15:02,553 --> 00:15:04,773
Why are people
flooding in here like
it's any other Friday?
280
00:15:04,860 --> 00:15:06,253
Agent Ryker,
it wasn't my call.
281
00:15:06,340 --> 00:15:07,863
Then whose was it?
282
00:15:07,950 --> 00:15:09,038
Not that
it's your business.
283
00:15:09,125 --> 00:15:10,605
Mayor Giuliani.
284
00:15:10,692 --> 00:15:12,346
The call was mine.
285
00:15:12,433 --> 00:15:14,261
No one is
shutting down 30 Rock.
286
00:15:14,348 --> 00:15:16,524
Mr. Mayor,
you're not hearing me.
287
00:15:16,611 --> 00:15:19,483
Really?
Because it seems
you're not hearing me.
288
00:15:19,570 --> 00:15:22,486
You're not the acting
superior in this jurisdiction.
289
00:15:22,573 --> 00:15:24,358
Erin O'Connor
is infected.
290
00:15:24,445 --> 00:15:26,882
Not only are all of her
colleagues at risk but so is
291
00:15:26,969 --> 00:15:29,363
every person who
steps into the building.
292
00:15:29,450 --> 00:15:32,279
We need to evacuate, we need
to get a hazmat team in there
293
00:15:32,366 --> 00:15:34,194
so we can scan every
inch of the place.
294
00:15:34,281 --> 00:15:35,412
Do you
have a positive test,
295
00:15:35,499 --> 00:15:37,153
a confirmation on the victim?
296
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,807
No, not yet.
297
00:15:38,894 --> 00:15:42,506
Any other
sick workers? Any proof?
298
00:15:42,593 --> 00:15:46,467
I'm talking absolute that
anthrax is in this building.
299
00:15:46,554 --> 00:15:48,295
That's why
we're searching.
300
00:15:48,382 --> 00:15:50,210
Just because one
person who might have it,
301
00:15:50,297 --> 00:15:52,516
might've been
exposed weeks ago, uh,
302
00:15:52,603 --> 00:15:55,519
is already being
treated and nobody
else is showing symptoms,
303
00:15:55,606 --> 00:15:57,869
yet you're trying
to shut down one of the,
304
00:15:57,957 --> 00:15:59,654
the busiest
buildings in my city.
305
00:15:59,741 --> 00:16:01,656
Sir, with
all due respect.
306
00:16:01,743 --> 00:16:03,527
You're here looking
through a microscope but, uh,
307
00:16:03,614 --> 00:16:04,746
I've got to
see the big picture.
308
00:16:04,833 --> 00:16:06,574
Okay.
309
00:16:06,661 --> 00:16:09,490
Well here's an image,
anthrax spores do not die off.
310
00:16:09,577 --> 00:16:11,709
They settle, they lie in wait.
311
00:16:11,796 --> 00:16:14,538
What we are talking about
is a ticking time bomb.
312
00:16:14,625 --> 00:16:17,063
Mayor Giuliani, please.
313
00:16:20,675 --> 00:16:22,938
Plenty of twisted
pricks get their rocks off
314
00:16:23,025 --> 00:16:24,853
by scaring people.
315
00:16:24,940 --> 00:16:26,898
If they shut down every
building that had a hoax,
316
00:16:26,986 --> 00:16:29,031
wouldn't be a building
open come Christmas.
317
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,904
Do you have any idea what the
good people of this city have
318
00:16:32,992 --> 00:16:33,949
been through these last weeks?
319
00:16:34,036 --> 00:16:35,690
I understand.
320
00:16:35,777 --> 00:16:36,996
Hell, the city
gets threats every day.
321
00:16:39,302 --> 00:16:41,217
I need at
least the third floor.

Look, I can use
the freight entrance.

Mr. Mayor, you
haven't seen what this
bacteria does to a body.
325
00:17:03,587 --> 00:17:06,938
Clear the entrance.
Let's move, guys, move.
326
00:17:07,026 --> 00:17:08,766
Just make sure it's taped off.
327

Block that corner off.

And you guys got to
rotate it out of the suit.
329

We've only got
the third floor,

you swab everything.

00:19:27,862 --> 00:19:29,864
Wasn't trying to be nosy, but
I was looking for you earlier.
352
00:19:29,951 --> 00:19:31,866
Susan said you were up
in the Director's office.
353
00:19:33,128 --> 00:19:34,651
Yeah.
354
00:19:34,738 --> 00:19:37,698
Lot of heads
rolling this morning?
355
00:19:37,785 --> 00:19:41,354
Just a friendly
reminder that we either
356
00:19:41,441 --> 00:19:46,576
get out front of this story
or we become the story.
357
00:19:46,663 --> 00:19:49,536
Hmm, locking
horns right out of the gate?
358
00:19:49,623 --> 00:19:50,798
With the Director?
359
00:19:50,885 --> 00:19:52,800
No. We go back.
360
00:19:54,889 --> 00:19:57,674
Princeton, right?
Yeah.
361
00:19:57,761 --> 00:20:00,895
Before the bronze star,
Purple Heart.
362
00:20:00,982 --> 00:20:04,768
He took the law firm,
Attorney General route and
363
00:20:04,855 --> 00:20:07,206
I dedicated my
life to the bureau.
364
00:20:07,293 --> 00:20:09,382
My mistake.
365
00:20:09,469 --> 00:20:12,036
Always easier climbing
new stairs than the ones
366
00:20:12,123 --> 00:20:14,604
you've been
slogging up for years.
367
00:20:14,691 --> 00:20:16,345
Well, Van Harp's
keeping me busy,
368
00:20:16,432 --> 00:20:18,478
but if you need extra
hands on the anthrax case.
369
00:20:18,565 --> 00:20:21,263
Oh, Ryker's on it.
370
00:20:21,350 --> 00:20:23,918
I know the cells in our
AOR better than anyone, sir.
371
00:20:24,005 --> 00:20:25,615
If I start
pulling agents off
372
00:20:25,702 --> 00:20:28,357
9/11 without confirmation
this is an attack.
373
00:20:28,444 --> 00:20:30,403
Of course, sir.
374
00:20:30,490 --> 00:20:32,231
But if it is, this whole
thing could blow wide open.
375
00:20:45,548 --> 00:20:48,159
We went through
everything in there.
376
00:20:48,247 --> 00:20:50,161
Did you
find the letter?
377
00:20:50,249 --> 00:20:54,035
I thought
we had something
but it was just a hoax.
378
00:20:54,122 --> 00:20:55,515
I don't know what to tell you.
379
00:20:55,602 --> 00:20:57,125
There's no anthrax
letter in that room.
380
00:20:57,212 --> 00:20:59,083
That makes no sense.
381
00:20:59,170 --> 00:21:01,608
That lesion on Erin O'Connor's
shoulder is no hoax.
382
00:21:01,695 --> 00:21:03,566
That letter's gotta
be here somewhere.
383
00:21:03,653 --> 00:21:05,307
About that, they just
brought in O'Connor's biopsy.
384
00:21:05,394 --> 00:21:07,788
And?
385
00:21:07,875 --> 00:21:11,008
Tested negative.
What?
386
00:21:18,842 --> 00:21:21,105
Actually, O'Connor's
been on Cipro for days.
387
00:21:21,192 --> 00:21:23,891
Once Cipro is established
in the bloodstream,
388
00:21:23,978 --> 00:21:27,590
I'm thinking it could result
in a false gram-negative.
389
00:21:27,677 --> 00:21:29,723
Dr. Zaki over at the
CDC is working on an
390
00:21:29,810 --> 00:21:32,900
experimental strip to expedite
gram-positive testing.
391
00:21:32,987 --> 00:21:34,380
It'll be more conclusive.
392
00:21:34,467 --> 00:21:35,424
Give them a call.
393
00:21:35,511 --> 00:21:36,730
Yeah.
394
00:21:38,514 --> 00:21:40,473
Things are good.
395
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,040
Lately with
Diane and the kids,
396
00:21:43,127 --> 00:21:45,565
everything's clicking.
397
00:21:45,652 --> 00:21:49,133
I mean, the only
stressful thing is...
398
00:21:49,220 --> 00:21:51,919
And how
has work been lately?
399
00:21:52,006 --> 00:21:53,268
And other than that,
400
00:21:53,355 --> 00:21:56,097
how was the play,
Mrs. Lincoln?
401
00:21:56,184 --> 00:21:57,490
Do you
want to expand on that?
402
00:21:57,577 --> 00:21:59,230
Stressful.
403
00:21:59,318 --> 00:22:01,232
I mean, you know, we're
at the epicenter of this
404
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,280
anthrax business and
the country under attack.
405
00:22:05,367 --> 00:22:07,500
Haven't been able to
see the kids much lately.
406
00:22:07,587 --> 00:22:09,023
It's quite common
to pull away when there is
407
00:22:09,110 --> 00:22:11,068
stress in the workplace.
408
00:22:11,155 --> 00:22:13,462
There is nothing
common about my work.
409
00:22:13,549 --> 00:22:15,986
What's
happening there?
410
00:22:16,073 --> 00:22:17,814
What's adding anxiety?
411
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,614
Bruce? Where
did you just go?
412
00:22:34,701 --> 00:22:36,355
Sorry.
413
00:22:40,750 --> 00:22:43,057
I know
9/11 really rattled you,
414
00:22:43,144 --> 00:22:45,364
but it's good that you've
come here for more support.
415
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,022
My work at USAMRIID,
dealing with DOD,
416
00:22:52,109 --> 00:22:55,591
it's high clearance stuff.
417
00:22:55,678 --> 00:22:58,507
These conversations
are confidential.
418
00:23:06,254 --> 00:23:08,082
Since the
situation in Florida,
419
00:23:08,169 --> 00:23:13,217
things have been unhinged.
420
00:23:13,304 --> 00:23:17,744
And now with New York, the
samples keep flooding in and
421
00:23:17,831 --> 00:23:22,575
it's up to us to separate
the hoaxes from the real deal.
422
00:23:24,664 --> 00:23:27,188
We're this line of defense
nobody even knows exists.
423
00:23:29,277 --> 00:23:31,410
Would you say
you feel under-appreciated?
424
00:23:32,889 --> 00:23:35,326
What? No.
425
00:23:35,414 --> 00:23:39,026
What I'm saying is that
it's just us in there,
426
00:23:39,113 --> 00:23:40,419
this select
group of scientists,
427
00:23:40,506 --> 00:23:42,377
some of us barely
know each other.
428
00:23:42,464 --> 00:23:44,335
Even in a vacuum, how do you
trust someone with something
429
00:23:44,423 --> 00:23:50,516
so paramount as the
safety of our nation?
430
00:23:50,603 --> 00:23:53,344
Bruce, do you
suspect someone at work
431
00:23:53,432 --> 00:23:55,477
is possibly involved?
432
00:24:08,011 --> 00:24:09,404
This way.
433
00:24:14,757 --> 00:24:18,065
They're still working on
those contaminants as well.
434
00:24:18,152 --> 00:24:19,458
Yeah, they are.

this won't get blown
out of proportion.
441
00:25:56,424 --> 00:25:58,208
Better not.
442
00:25:58,295 --> 00:25:59,427
I asked for a babysitter and
was promised you'd have an
443
00:25:59,514 --> 00:26:00,950
iron grip on the situation.
444
00:26:01,037 --> 00:26:03,257
Mayor.
445
00:26:03,344 --> 00:26:05,172
Sir.
446
00:26:05,259 --> 00:26:07,827
We just got results from
Erin O'Connor's latest biopsy.
447
00:26:07,914 --> 00:26:10,394
She's positive for anthrax.
448
00:26:10,481 --> 00:26:12,179
Her first test was
a false negative because
449
00:26:12,266 --> 00:26:14,094
she'd already been on Cipro.
450
00:26:14,181 --> 00:26:16,009
Didn't I already
give you what you asked for?
451
00:26:16,096 --> 00:26:17,880
We need to do a lot
more than close off one floor.
452
00:26:17,967 --> 00:26:20,056
Anthrax is here.
453
00:26:20,143 --> 00:26:22,015
Who ran the test?
CDC.
454
00:26:22,102 --> 00:26:24,191
Brand new testing method.
455
00:26:24,278 --> 00:26:26,106
And by new,
is that some sort of
experimental thing?
456
00:26:26,193 --> 00:26:28,804
And?
457
00:26:28,891 --> 00:26:30,458
Unless you
have any new proof that
458
00:26:30,545 --> 00:26:32,242
she got it here at 30 Rock.
459
00:26:32,329 --> 00:26:34,157
How is a positive
biopsy result not enough?
460
00:26:34,244 --> 00:26:35,550
Ryker.
461
00:26:35,637 --> 00:26:37,334
I'll
take that as a no.
462
00:26:37,421 --> 00:26:38,945
Mayor Giuliani,
the press is ready for you.
463
00:26:39,032 --> 00:26:40,599
And Assistant Director
Mawn is standing by.
464
00:26:40,686 --> 00:26:42,252
Thank you.
465
00:26:44,254 --> 00:26:45,952
You gotta understand,
466
00:26:46,039 --> 00:26:48,302
the local team is doing
everything by the book.
467
00:26:48,389 --> 00:26:50,913
They're good.
468
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,959
But they need more to go on.
469
00:26:53,046 --> 00:26:55,483
Conjecture is the enemy here.
470
00:26:55,570 --> 00:26:58,878
You get an attack letter in an
evidence bag and hold it up in
471
00:26:58,965 --> 00:27:01,663
front of the cameras,
I can get us anything we want.
472
00:27:01,750 --> 00:27:04,666
We went through
every inch of that mailroom.
473
00:27:04,753 --> 00:27:06,886
Erin knows she
handed the letter off.
474
00:27:06,973 --> 00:27:09,410
Then you jumped
a step when you retraced it.
475
00:27:11,238 --> 00:27:14,154
The truth is never about
what should have happened.
476
00:27:18,158 --> 00:27:20,813
Thank
you all for coming.
477
00:27:20,900 --> 00:27:23,163
I just wanna be clear
that we're, we're,
478
00:27:23,250 --> 00:27:24,773
we're talking with
you today because
479
00:27:24,860 --> 00:27:27,733
we're being overly cautious.
480
00:27:27,820 --> 00:27:30,300
All employees, as well as
areas of the building that
481
00:27:30,387 --> 00:27:33,173
may have been
exposed will be tested.
482
00:27:33,260 --> 00:27:35,262
We're
missing something.
483
00:27:35,349 --> 00:27:37,264
We've been
through every piece
of hate mail twice.
484
00:27:39,048 --> 00:27:41,007
Mailroom doesn't
bag them, though, do they?
485
00:27:41,094 --> 00:27:42,791
Uh, no.
486
00:27:42,878 --> 00:27:44,184
I think security guards
collect potential threats
487
00:27:44,271 --> 00:27:45,838
from each floor.
488
00:27:45,925 --> 00:27:48,536
Which guard
handles the mail from NBC?
489
00:27:48,623 --> 00:27:50,886
After
a long talk with the CDC,
490
00:27:50,973 --> 00:27:52,888
the chances that
this is contained, uh...
491
00:27:54,368 --> 00:27:56,196
What do you need, pal?
492
00:27:56,283 --> 00:27:58,415
FBI.
493
00:27:58,502 --> 00:28:01,070
We're looking
for a letter that was
addressed to Tom Brokaw,
494
00:28:01,157 --> 00:28:02,724
came in a green plastic bag.
495
00:28:02,811 --> 00:28:04,160
Seen anything like that?
496
00:28:04,247 --> 00:28:05,553
I don't know.
497
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,990
It can be anywhere in here.
498
00:28:08,077 --> 00:28:09,600
Start over there.
499
00:28:12,647 --> 00:28:14,736
While the
powder in the letter, uh,
500
00:28:14,823 --> 00:28:16,825
proved negative for anthrax,
501
00:28:16,912 --> 00:28:20,002
a skin biopsy
did test positive.
502
00:28:20,089 --> 00:28:25,225
And since this
incident could date back
as early as September 25th,
503
00:28:25,312 --> 00:28:27,618
there's a
decent shot that, uh,
504
00:28:27,706 --> 00:28:29,620
anyone who might
have been exposed, uh,
505
00:28:29,708 --> 00:28:31,013
would be by now.
506
00:28:31,100 --> 00:28:32,101
That is our hope.
507
00:28:33,712 --> 00:28:36,323
I encourage everyone
not to overreacting.
508
00:28:36,410 --> 00:28:40,631
NBC's in control of the
situation and cooperation with
509
00:28:40,719 --> 00:28:45,898
governmental agencies, that's
including the CDC and the FBI.
510
00:28:45,985 --> 00:28:48,814
If anyone receives
any suspicious mail,
511
00:28:48,901 --> 00:28:53,993
the best thing to do,
contact the police or FBI.
512
00:29:08,398 --> 00:29:11,140
Get out.
513
00:29:11,227 --> 00:29:13,142
Leave the sandwich.
514
00:29:14,535 --> 00:29:18,974
Chris, stay back.
515
00:29:19,061 --> 00:29:21,934
I'm vaccinated,
but you need to leave.
516
00:29:22,021 --> 00:29:23,805
And get that guy on Cipro.
517
00:29:31,247 --> 00:29:33,597
Excuse me, Mr. Giuliani.
518
00:29:33,684 --> 00:29:35,295
Mayor, clarify what
the CDC told you today?
519
00:29:35,382 --> 00:29:38,298
Exactly how safe
is 30 Rock right now?
520
00:29:38,385 --> 00:29:42,693
The CDC and the FBI
have informed us that the
521
00:29:42,781 --> 00:29:45,479
chances that this is
contained are very good.
522
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,483
Any
connection to 9/11?
523
00:29:52,138 --> 00:29:54,096
I'll let
our local Assistant
Director Mawn answer that.
524
00:29:54,183 --> 00:29:55,315
Mawn?
525
00:29:55,402 --> 00:29:57,970
Thank you, Mayor.
526
00:29:58,057 --> 00:30:00,973
Uh,
at this moment, we see
absolutely zero link to 9/11.
527
00:30:22,211 --> 00:30:23,909
So it is terrorists.
528
00:30:23,996 --> 00:30:25,562
Our forensics
might find more,
529
00:30:25,649 --> 00:30:28,391
but I'm not seeing
any identifiers, Dr. Layton.
530
00:30:28,478 --> 00:30:30,176
And there's no
obvious fingerprints,
531
00:30:30,263 --> 00:30:31,917
there's no hair.
532
00:30:32,004 --> 00:30:34,093
The envelope has
been taped, not licked,
533
00:30:34,180 --> 00:30:36,660
so we're not gonna
pull any DNA evidence.
534
00:30:36,747 --> 00:30:38,401
The letter itself
is photocopied,
535
00:30:38,488 --> 00:30:41,056
so we're not gonna
get any ink samples.
536
00:30:41,143 --> 00:30:44,930
They did
leave us something
to go off of, postmark.
537
00:30:45,017 --> 00:30:47,280
Maybe it
could be traced back
to the point of origin.
538
00:30:47,367 --> 00:30:49,456
Right.
And track it down to where
it was first dropped off.
539
00:30:49,543 --> 00:30:51,371
Yeah.
Follow up with
the postal service.
540
00:30:51,458 --> 00:30:52,676
Okay. Got it.
541
00:30:54,504 --> 00:30:56,419
If this is
a match for Florida,
542
00:30:56,506 --> 00:30:59,248
we've got
a full-blown bioweapons
attack on our hands.
543
00:30:59,335 --> 00:31:03,035
Question is, who
else is a target?
544
00:31:03,122 --> 00:31:05,864
Well letters
were sent to AMI and NBC.
545
00:31:05,951 --> 00:31:09,171
I'm starting to think this
is an attack on the media.
546
00:31:11,826 --> 00:31:14,133
First showed
up over a week ago.
547
00:31:14,220 --> 00:31:16,265
My doctor
prescribed antibiotics.
548
00:31:16,352 --> 00:31:18,441
He said it was a spider bite.
549
00:31:18,528 --> 00:31:20,443
But it's not, is it?
550
00:31:20,530 --> 00:31:23,142
What's important is
that it looks to be resolving.
551
00:31:23,229 --> 00:31:25,448
We'll need to run
some tests, though.
552
00:31:25,535 --> 00:31:27,146
Whatever you need to
do to take down the cowards
553
00:31:27,233 --> 00:31:28,538
who are doing this.
554
00:31:31,585 --> 00:31:34,849
Do you remember
opening any suspicious mail?
555
00:31:34,936 --> 00:31:37,417
Something that might look
similar to this letter here.
556
00:31:41,900 --> 00:31:43,945
I remember an
envelope just like this.
557
00:31:47,514 --> 00:31:49,385
I didn't open it, though.
558
00:31:49,472 --> 00:31:51,474
What do you mean?
559
00:31:51,561 --> 00:31:55,304
The letter,
I, I never opened it.
560
00:31:55,391 --> 00:31:57,306
We got a
case at the Post.
561
00:31:57,393 --> 00:31:59,569
A woman with a cutaneous
wound on her finger.
562
00:31:59,656 --> 00:32:01,658
And I just got word that
Dan Rather's assistant over
563
00:32:01,745 --> 00:32:04,139
at CBS tested positive.
564
00:32:04,226 --> 00:32:05,836
She noticed the lesion
a couple of days ago.
565
00:32:05,924 --> 00:32:07,795
Did you find
any letters at CBS?
566
00:32:07,882 --> 00:32:09,971
No, but
we did find spores,
567
00:32:10,058 --> 00:32:11,625
some of them at Rather's desk.
568
00:32:11,712 --> 00:32:13,975
Look, uh, I'm at
ABC News right now.
569
00:32:14,062 --> 00:32:16,064
Um, I got a lot of
newsrooms to sweep.
570
00:32:16,151 --> 00:32:18,066
What
about you? What's your status?
571
00:32:18,153 --> 00:32:20,373
I'm heading into the
mail facility in Trenton now.
572
00:32:20,460 --> 00:32:22,766
I'll let you know if the
postmark gets us anywhere.
573
00:32:22,853 --> 00:32:25,247
Good. Thanks.
574
00:32:25,334 --> 00:32:27,554
All right, uh...
575
00:32:27,641 --> 00:32:31,688
Rest assured, the tests
we will be performing
are just a precaution.
576
00:32:31,775 --> 00:32:34,996
Uh, several employees at
other news outlets have
577
00:32:35,083 --> 00:32:38,739
tested positive for anthrax,
so we wanna make sure that
578
00:32:38,826 --> 00:32:42,177
everyone here at
ABC News is safe.
579
00:32:42,264 --> 00:32:44,223
Special Agent Ryker.
580
00:32:44,310 --> 00:32:46,877
As Assistant Director
Copak may have mentioned,
581
00:32:46,965 --> 00:32:49,532
we will need to know the names
of anyone who came to visit
582
00:32:49,619 --> 00:32:51,752
you here at work over
the past two weeks.
583
00:32:54,624 --> 00:32:57,279
Everyone, please, please,
let's, let's stay calm.
584
00:33:03,285 --> 00:33:04,330
Hey, honey.
585
00:33:04,417 --> 00:33:05,809
Is he any worse?
586
00:33:05,896 --> 00:33:08,203
Getting pretty fussy.
587
00:33:08,290 --> 00:33:12,033
He's, he's little owie
is looking kind of ugly.
588
00:33:16,037 --> 00:33:18,605
Is everything okay?
589
00:33:19,998 --> 00:33:21,651
Excuse me, ma'am.
590
00:33:21,738 --> 00:33:22,652
Hi, my name is Agent Moore.
591
00:33:22,739 --> 00:33:24,350
I'm with the FBI.
592
00:33:24,437 --> 00:33:25,394
Uh, I'm just looking
for your floor manager.
593
00:33:25,481 --> 00:33:26,613
Uh, Quinton?
594
00:33:26,700 --> 00:33:28,180
What'd he get himself into?
595
00:33:28,267 --> 00:33:29,746
Uh, no, he's
not in any trouble.
596
00:33:29,833 --> 00:33:31,270
I just got a couple
of questions for him.
597
00:33:31,357 --> 00:33:34,012
Quinton!
Feds are looking for ya!
598
00:33:36,057 --> 00:33:37,232
He's right in there.
599
00:33:37,319 --> 00:33:39,452
Thanks.
600
00:33:43,021 --> 00:33:45,849
You see these
hash marks down here?
Right.
601
00:33:45,936 --> 00:33:47,721
That big metal
beast out there doing all the
602
00:33:47,808 --> 00:33:49,766
clanking stamps the code,
then sends it on down the line
603
00:33:49,853 --> 00:33:51,855
to the others to be
sorted accordingly.
604
00:33:51,942 --> 00:33:54,945
Okay.
Meaning the code then
serves as a, sort of,
605
00:33:55,033 --> 00:33:56,860
road map for
the letter's journey?
606
00:33:56,947 --> 00:33:59,559
Uh, this one, after
leaving here was dispatched to
607
00:33:59,646 --> 00:34:02,083
our route that covers 30 Rock.
608
00:34:02,170 --> 00:34:03,911
Okay.
609
00:34:03,998 --> 00:34:06,044
And where might the letter
been dropped off before it
610
00:34:06,131 --> 00:34:08,307
made its way to this facility?
611
00:34:08,394 --> 00:34:10,222
Could have been
any box in our region.
612
00:34:10,309 --> 00:34:12,702
One of our blue boxes,
if I had to guess.
613
00:34:12,789 --> 00:34:14,530
Blue boxes?
614
00:34:14,617 --> 00:34:17,316
Okay. How many of those
blue boxes are we talking?
615
00:34:17,403 --> 00:34:19,100
Over 600.
616
00:34:42,341 --> 00:34:44,212
Thought you
went home already?
617
00:34:46,214 --> 00:34:48,260
Got called back in. You?
618
00:34:48,347 --> 00:34:50,479
Yeah. Same.
619
00:34:50,566 --> 00:34:52,046
You know, I'm
practically drowning in
620
00:34:52,133 --> 00:34:54,222
samples that need testing,
and now word is,
621
00:34:54,309 --> 00:34:57,007
we're about to get new spores
from the New York letter.
622
00:34:57,095 --> 00:34:59,575
How much you wanna bet if
it turns out to be Ames just
623
00:34:59,662 --> 00:35:01,142
like the Florida strain.
624
00:35:01,229 --> 00:35:03,144
You sound
pretty confident.
625
00:35:03,231 --> 00:35:04,841
Well, you wanna
know what worries me?
626
00:35:04,928 --> 00:35:08,758
If it is Ames, only
advanced labs have it.
627
00:35:14,373 --> 00:35:16,201
Then how'd
Al-Qaeda get ahold of it?
628
00:35:16,288 --> 00:35:18,246
Exactly.
629
00:35:22,032 --> 00:35:24,905
This thing, this
thing could get messy.
630
00:35:37,787 --> 00:35:39,006
You heading out?
631
00:35:39,093 --> 00:35:40,616
Yeah.
632
00:35:40,703 --> 00:35:43,315
I just have some
things to finish up first.
633
00:35:43,402 --> 00:35:48,407
Well, suit yourself.
634
00:35:48,494 --> 00:35:49,451
Goodnight, Bruce.
635
00:35:49,538 --> 00:35:50,757
Good night.
636
00:36:13,519 --> 00:36:20,308
♪ ♪
637
00:36:35,584 --> 00:36:37,151
We tried administrating
oral antibiotics but
638
00:36:37,238 --> 00:36:39,240
little Joey keeps
spitting them up.
639
00:36:39,327 --> 00:36:41,373
We're running out of options.
640
00:36:41,460 --> 00:36:43,592
How long has the
infection been active?
641
00:36:43,679 --> 00:36:46,160
I can't tell you
any more than the father did.
642
00:36:46,247 --> 00:36:49,032
He said his wife and
the baby came by the
office a few days ago.
643
00:36:49,119 --> 00:36:51,470
We don't have many options
to stave off the spread of
644
00:36:51,557 --> 00:36:53,123
the infection in an infant.
645
00:36:53,211 --> 00:36:54,908
Anthrax isn't
something you stave off.
646
00:36:54,995 --> 00:36:56,562
If it's already systemic,
647
00:36:56,649 --> 00:36:58,216
which this is, this
boy needs to be on Cipro.
648
00:36:58,303 --> 00:36:59,695
I told you,
he can't keep them down.
649
00:36:59,782 --> 00:37:01,175
No, no,
not oral, intravenously.
650
00:37:01,262 --> 00:37:02,916
It's his only shot.
651
00:37:03,003 --> 00:37:05,571
Agent, this
is my ICU, my call.
652
00:37:05,658 --> 00:37:08,443
Do not mistake this
update as anything more than
653
00:37:08,530 --> 00:37:10,445
a professional courtesy.
654
00:37:10,532 --> 00:37:12,708
Before today, I was one
of only a handful of people in
655
00:37:12,795 --> 00:37:15,755
this country to have ever seen
a case of anthrax in a human.
656
00:37:15,842 --> 00:37:18,192
And babies?
657
00:37:18,279 --> 00:37:21,021
Ever seen an anthrax case
in an infant before?
658
00:37:21,108 --> 00:37:22,849
You wanna take a guess at the
odds of a human weighing less
659
00:37:22,936 --> 00:37:26,461
than 20 pounds surviving
that much Cipro intravenously?
660
00:37:26,548 --> 00:37:28,463
Is it better than zero?
661
00:37:28,550 --> 00:37:31,553
Because those are Joey's odds
if we don't kill the anthrax.
662
00:37:38,386 --> 00:37:40,127
Oh, you're up late.
663
00:37:40,214 --> 00:37:42,956
Correction,
I'm up early.
664
00:37:43,043 --> 00:37:45,480
You, my friend, are
the one that's up late.
665
00:37:45,567 --> 00:37:48,353
Well,
you know, can't sleep.
666
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,920
What's new? So
I got your text.
667
00:37:51,007 --> 00:37:53,793
So, what's got
you up before the dawn?
668
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,405
The Patriot Act Bill,
has everyone on Capitol Hill
669
00:37:57,492 --> 00:37:59,320
scrambling right now.
670
00:37:59,407 --> 00:38:00,887
You know, half the
groups I lobby for don't even
671
00:38:00,974 --> 00:38:03,585
know which way they
want this vote to go.
672
00:38:03,672 --> 00:38:05,674
Turns out that allowing
the FBI to freely spy on
673
00:38:05,761 --> 00:38:08,808
Americans makes
some folks uneasy.
674
00:38:10,244 --> 00:38:12,072
You know
this isn't public,
675
00:38:12,159 --> 00:38:15,641
but the anthrax we found,
all signs point to it leading
676
00:38:15,728 --> 00:38:18,034
back to Florida.
677
00:38:18,121 --> 00:38:19,862
Well, you're afraid
that'd be the case.
678
00:38:19,949 --> 00:38:21,255
Only it's worse.
679
00:38:21,342 --> 00:38:23,692
Several victims.
680
00:38:23,779 --> 00:38:25,825
One's an infant.
681
00:38:25,912 --> 00:38:29,176
Jesus, Matthew.
682
00:38:29,263 --> 00:38:31,221
I know word around D.C.
683
00:38:31,309 --> 00:38:34,050
is that it's terrorist
that's behind these letters.
684
00:38:34,137 --> 00:38:35,704
Is that what you're thinking?
685
00:38:35,791 --> 00:38:38,925
Well, Al-Qaeda
declared war on 9/11.
686
00:38:39,012 --> 00:38:41,797
No reason to think they'd
stop with the first strike.
687
00:38:52,286 --> 00:38:55,855
You still there?
688
00:38:55,942 --> 00:38:57,291
Matthew?
689
00:38:57,378 --> 00:39:00,555
Uh, yeah,
I'm still here.
690
00:39:00,642 --> 00:39:05,255
Uh, why don't we talk more
once I get back to D.C., okay?
691
00:39:05,343 --> 00:39:07,606
Yeah, sure.

Bruce, do you suspect
someone at work is possibly
involved?
703
00:40:41,047 --> 00:40:42,788
The other night I
swabbed a few places around
704
00:40:42,875 --> 00:40:46,008
USAMRIID looking for
something peculiar.
705
00:40:46,095 --> 00:40:47,793
Peculiar, meaning?
706
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,273
Connected to the
anthrax attacks obviously.
707
00:40:52,188 --> 00:40:54,147
And?
708
00:40:56,192 --> 00:40:57,933
Inconclusive.
709
00:41:01,067 --> 00:41:06,333
Bruce, at minimum,
this is a massive burden
710
00:41:06,420 --> 00:41:08,466
you've taken upon yourself,
711
00:41:08,553 --> 00:41:11,077
and worst case a matter
of National Security.
712
00:41:11,164 --> 00:41:13,383
Yes, I'm aware.
713
00:41:13,471 --> 00:41:15,864
Have you considered
as a means of lifting this
714
00:41:15,951 --> 00:41:17,997
burden contacting
the authorities?
715
00:41:18,084 --> 00:41:19,215
Possibly the FBI?
716
00:41:19,302 --> 00:41:20,782
What if I'm wrong?
717
00:41:20,869 --> 00:41:22,262
What if this
colleague is innocent,
718
00:41:22,349 --> 00:41:23,655
I could destroy
his entire world.
719
00:41:26,266 --> 00:41:27,310
No.
720
00:41:29,443 --> 00:41:31,184
Not without
something concrete.
721
00:41:32,838 --> 00:41:34,840
I understand your trepidation.
722
00:41:34,927 --> 00:41:37,886
Will you at least
consider it, please?
723
00:41:49,942 --> 00:41:52,248
No need to wait
around on our account.
724
00:41:52,335 --> 00:41:54,163
I was just
heading to the field office.
725
00:41:54,250 --> 00:41:56,426
I thought I'd stop by
and check in on your son.
726
00:42:02,824 --> 00:42:04,957
Doctors
still won't say much.
727
00:42:05,044 --> 00:42:08,743
Though from what
they have said,
728
00:42:08,830 --> 00:42:10,832
it sounds like making
it through the night was
729
00:42:10,919 --> 00:42:13,966
a pretty major milestone.
730
00:42:14,053 --> 00:42:16,098
So, thank you for that.
731
00:42:16,185 --> 00:42:17,535
No need to thank me.
732
00:42:17,622 --> 00:42:19,624
- I didn't do any.
Don't.
733
00:42:19,711 --> 00:42:21,190
The pediatrician said
you talked him into
734
00:42:21,277 --> 00:42:23,889
the intravenous treatment.
735
00:42:23,976 --> 00:42:25,412
I'm happy to help.
736
00:42:30,156 --> 00:42:31,505
Excuse me.
737
00:42:33,725 --> 00:42:36,118
Dr. Layton?
738
00:42:36,205 --> 00:42:37,946
Hey, our teams got
their hands on that letter
739
00:42:38,033 --> 00:42:40,166
that infected the
woman at the Post.
740
00:42:40,253 --> 00:42:42,081
Here's
the troubling thing,
741
00:42:42,168 --> 00:42:43,517
the letter is still sealed.
742
00:42:43,604 --> 00:42:45,258
No one opened it,
743
00:42:45,345 --> 00:42:47,695
not even ripped a
corner or something?
744
00:42:47,782 --> 00:42:49,523
No.
745
00:42:49,610 --> 00:42:51,699
The powder must've worked
its way around the seal.
746
00:42:51,786 --> 00:42:54,136
The things is we've been
operating under the assumption
747
00:42:54,223 --> 00:42:57,139
that just a few spores
couldn't infect anyone.
748
00:43:00,447 --> 00:43:02,884
To know how to do this,
749
00:43:02,971 --> 00:43:05,670
make sure that
they don't link up with
people like Osama bin Laden
750
00:43:05,757 --> 00:43:08,542
uh, for not panicking
in the situation.
751
00:43:08,629 --> 00:43:10,979
I think most of what
we're going to see will...
752
00:43:11,066 --> 00:43:13,634
Hey, any
leads on the letter?
753
00:43:13,721 --> 00:43:16,419
Not yet.
It's with the CDC now.
754
00:43:16,506 --> 00:43:18,291
Get a load of this.
755
00:43:18,378 --> 00:43:20,946
News got their hands on some
tidbit and it's blowing up
756
00:43:21,033 --> 00:43:23,644
all over the airwaves.
757
00:43:23,731 --> 00:43:26,734
Should we be concerned that
Iraq may be able to do that?
758
00:43:26,821 --> 00:43:29,824
I have always been
concerned about Iraq.
759
00:43:29,911 --> 00:43:34,263
I share the
concern about Iraq's
biological weapons program.
760
00:43:34,350 --> 00:43:37,353
Uh, I found it very curious
indeed that Saddam Hussein...
761
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,138
Iraq?
762
00:43:39,225 --> 00:43:42,315
No, no, this is,
I've had a couple of calls
763
00:43:42,402 --> 00:43:45,753
from Washington already.
764
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:47,929
Fumbled my way through.
765
00:43:48,016 --> 00:43:49,931
It's like talking to people
about a party they think
766
00:43:50,018 --> 00:43:51,759
you were invited to.
767
00:43:51,846 --> 00:43:54,632
Is Al-Qaeda even in Iraq?
768
00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:58,200
Iraq's bioweapons
capabilities were shut
down after the war.
769
00:43:58,287 --> 00:44:00,550
As far as you
and I have been told.
770
00:44:00,638 --> 00:44:02,204
It's clear that, uh,
771
00:44:02,291 --> 00:44:07,035
Mr. Bin Laden is a man
who's, uh, an evil man.
772
00:44:07,122 --> 00:44:08,994
FBI
investigators are frantically
773
00:44:09,081 --> 00:44:11,823
searching for leads in the
case and the CDC has been
774
00:44:11,910 --> 00:44:14,695
quick to provide testing
and laboratory services.
775
00:44:18,307 --> 00:44:19,961
You have reached the

understandable
state of anxiety.
793
00:45:16,017 --> 00:45:18,541
It is concern in the county

who is responsible
for sending out anthrax?
796
00:45:22,981 --> 00:45:25,113
We don't have
enough information to know
797
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,507
whether this could be
related to terrorism.
798
00:45:27,594 --> 00:45:29,030
Reinforced by the President

Dan Rather at CBS.
