Dr. Phillip Heller
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I know about the lab. And I know about the cure you were researching.
- Philip Heller: That's classified.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: And *that's* a dead body! I already got you at manslaughter. I can prove intent, I got you at murder.
- Philip Heller: Wait.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You tell me what's going on, or you call your damn lawyer! Why is somebody trying to kill you?
- Philip Heller: Because I discovered the truth. Tarburst tried to hide it. The tasks were compartmentalized, ostensibly for security purposes. Isolate a genome, find a suitable viral vector. It, uh... they manipulated me. All I could see were the technical hurdles and not the big picture.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Which was what?
- Philip Heller: People were sick. But I wasn't working on a cure. I was building a weapon.
