- Someone has developed this virus to kill us.

- You don't know that.

The human delivery man

wasn't affected.

In the five years

we have been on Earth...

there has never been a virus that was

exclusively harmful to Newcomers.

Suddenly this one appears

as part of a murder attempt.

It had to come

from a laboratory.

Emily and Susan

are gonna be all right. You'll see.

Look.

A falling star.

That's good luck, huh?

[Woman, Man

Speaking Foreign Language]

[Overlapping Voices

Continue]

They're in a secure area.

Show 'em your badge.

[Woman On P.A.]

Nurse Hughes, report to E.R.

Nurse Hughes, report to-

George,

how are they?

The doctor's

in with them now.

Those flowers

were meant for me.

Mr. Francisco, we've got them both

on life support.

The intensive ultraviolet and nitrogen

are keeping your wife and daughter stable.

- But their condition is still critical.

- Can we go inside?

- If it's a virus, it must be contagious.

- We're not sure.

It seems through normal contact one doesn't

pick up enough of the virus to become ill.

Susan and Emily must have aspirated

a massive quantity.

You may go in if you observe

strict infectious procedure.

- But don't take the baby.

- Dad.

George, if there's

anything I can dom-

[Vessna Crying]

[Speaking Tenctonese]

We've set up a lab

to study the virus.

I've got to get to work.

Cathy?

##[Radio. Piano]

##[Continues]

[Radio. Static,

Frequencies Tuning]

[Engine Off]

What are you doing here?

Who you got

back there?

Hey. Slag.

- [Inhales]

- I asked you a question.

Hey!

[Grunting]

Let go!

Put me down!

- [Blows Landing]

- [Man Groaning]

[Exhales]

Sikes,

your prisoner's here.

Thanks, Zap.

- Sikes.

- Elliot. You lost weight.

What's the matter?

You don't like the food at Chino?

Where the hell's my lawyer?

What'd you bring me here for?

I'm waitin' transport on this yo-yo.

Can I leave him here?

Sure.

More the merrier!

Tell me, Elliot, what's new

on the Purist grapevine?

Does that

have to be in here?

You're not ashamed

of being a Purist.

- Purist?

- Oh, yeah.

Elliot here once burned

a Newcomer family out of Glendale.

- Sikes.

- [Speaks Tenctonese]

Easy.

Elliot'll kick your ass.

What do you know about a virus

that affects Newcomers?

I don't know a thing.

He says after he kicks your ass,

he's going after your mother.

[Yelling]

Back off!

Back off!

Sorry, Sikes.

We'll ship him off to Chino.

Well, Elliot's going back.

Put 'em in the paddy wagon

together.

You can't do that.

You can't do that!

- Oh, yeah.
