Detective Ed Green
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: Cause of death, acute pulmonary edema. A direct result of the flu.
- Detective Ed Green: So why'd you call us here?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: His parents said he got a flu shot about a month ago, so I pulled his pediatrician's chart. According to the records, he was vaccinated, but when I ran blood titers, he had no antibodies.
- Detective Joe Fontana: And he should have had?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: If he'd been immunized, absolutely.
- Detective Ed Green: I still don't get why we're here.
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: Well, there have been a lot of flu-related deaths in the past few weeks. I went through the autopsy records and found half a dozen other victims who had also supposedly been vaccinated but had no antibodies.
- Detective Joe Fontana: Supposedly?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: These people were not injected with the flu vaccine. They couldn't have been.
- Detective Ed Green: It wasn't just a bad batch of the vaccine?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: Even with an expired or a contaminated vaccine, there'd still be antibodies.
- Detective Ed Green: So if it wasn't the vaccine, what were they injected with?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: Good question. Now, there's no sign of anything toxic, so it has to be something neutral. Sterile saline solution, maybe.
- Detective Joe Fontana: So these people all thought they were getting vaccinated. They weren't, and get the flu anyway and it killed 'em?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: Exactly.
- Detective Joe Fontana: [to Green] We could be looking at a whole bunch of homicides here.
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: That's why I called you.
- Detective Ed Green: Elliot Peters, you're under arrest.
- Elliot Peters: What for?
- Detective Ed Green: For killing a whole bunch of people! I'd read you a list, but it's too long, you bastard. Turn around.
