Day 6 takes us deeper down the rabbit hole as we discover more clues about both the virus and the people trapped in Arctic Biosystems. And the children. You thought the platoon of frozen monkeys was bad? Think of the children (won’t anyone?). Inside the facility, Dr. Jordan appears, looking sober and relieved not to be dealing with the vector she was hiding in her quarters. She breaks up a fight between the still upright Dr. Farragut and the portly security guard, Daniel, who is working overtime to prevent the remaining members of the CDC from going down to Level R and discovering Hatake. While Jordan and Farragut do manage to sneak down to Level R in an effort to locate Dr. Walker, they don’t get very far. The doors to the corridor have been chained and padlocked, which turns out to be a good thing considering how quickly the hallway fills up with vectors, forcing them to retreat back upstairs. Last week, someone in the comments section made and excellent observation: why would the vectors try to attack Walker? After all, they are trying to spread the disease, not actually kill people, and she is already infected. I was hoping that particular plot point would be resolved in this episode, but it has yet to be addressed. Just how violent and crazed are the vectors? Judging by the screams Walker heard from outside the little lab she and Hatake were locked inside, it may well be that vectors will savage both the healthy and the infected. Interesting that Walker would be having such extensive dreams about herself as a child, especially when we learn about the missing children from the neighboring community. Was she a kidnapped child or does her relationship with Hatake go deeper? The latter gets my vote. Back at the lab, Farragut and Jordan discover that the virus is actually a delivery system for gene therapy which Hatake claims was intended to cure any and all forms of cancer. Unfortunately no one can say what went wrong. Further testing shows them what the late Doreen already knew; that the virus will blow up like a jungle vine on steroids and that it hates the cold. We did have two major plot developments so SOILER ALERT: 1) Farragut and Jordan celebrate turning the brother into a blue popsicle by having sexy time and 2) it turns out that Daniel, the portly security guard, is Anana’s brother. Although he doesn’t seem to know it, and Anana had no idea her missing sibling had been so close this entire time. On a personal note, I would like to thank the show runners for their brilliant use of Tchaikovsky’s “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies”. Seriously. That song is linked to holiday memories from my childhood and while nostalgia is awesome, nostalgia tinged with zombies is infinitely better!
