Recap

Ray is residing at a "friend's" house and preparing breakfast for himself while listening to classical music. Meanwhile, a pale sweating man is driving a truck toward the house and weaving all over the road. The man staggers to the door and hits the buzzer, and collapses into Ray's arms. He says for Ray not to touch him and mutters "mutated smallpox," then dies. Ray quickly reads up on how to deal with smallpox: clean thoroughly, burn all clothing, improvise a mask. He checks the man's ID and determines he's Louis Kelter with the World Health Organization (WHO). He then puts Kelter's corpse in a freezer, takes blood samples, then seals it with duct tape. Ray then douses man's car with gasoline and sets it on fire...

Episode Quotes
(discussing biological warfare)
Dr. J.P. McGill: How do you like your theory in action, Congressman?
Senator Hartzler: The theory is sound. We just weren't careful enough.
Dr. J.P. McGill: That's got to be worked into the theory. Having a loaded gun in the drawer is a wonderful theory, until the wrong person picks it up.

David Warren: You've had a lot of exposure. Check yourself into a hospital.
Ray: You ever tasted the food in a hospital?

(checking on Ray)
Doctor: Nurse! What happened to the patient in here?
Nurse: I don't know. His fever broke about an hour ago, and I asked him if he wanted something to eat, and he said only if I order out.
