5.08 - Reassortment

[ctg]

Reese and Finch become trapped in a hospital that becomes ground zero for a deadly viral outbreak. Also, Samaritan’s newest recruit has second thoughts and Shaw continues to struggle with reality.

Another brilliant one. I don't think I have time to write a review as I need to go to see Mrs in the hospital. Comment later.

Samaritan assembling a national DNA database to be sorted for the "next great filter." How ominous is that?
A splash of humor (pun intended) in this episode: Shaw revealing each step in her escape plan to the nurse -- except knocking over the glass of water as a distraction, then knocking it off the nightstand after completing her plan with "Oops!. I think I skipped a step."
Shaw wasn't about to miss another possible real-world opportunity to put slug in Mini-Me. Fool me once ...

I know and I agree. There's no way things can turn out good when an Ai has decided to sort out US vaccination program. The scale and speed it was advancing was unbelievable. A tenth of percent under a second (83 US citizen in every ms, 8333 in every tenth ms.)

That's fast. Probably fastest in the history of mankind.

But we know what this means because we have seen this happening with Dr Mengele and Aryan master race project. Need to I say more on that subject?

I punched air and shouted: "Yes! That's my girl." LOL

I wasn't sure that it wasn't a simulation. I thought it highly unlikely that she was in South Africa. Can a Flu virus work that fast and be that deadly? I suppose it could if Samaritan designed it. If an AI wanted to control us, I think this would probably be the way it would start.
