Quotes 

• Casey Schuler : How many brain cells did I kill?

  Sam Daniels : How many? About a billion.

  Casey Schuler : Oh, now I'm only as smart as you.

  Sam Daniels : What can we give him to kill his sense of humor?

• Casey Schuler : I hate this bug.

  Sam Daniels : Oh, come on, Casey. You have to admire its simplicity. It's one billionth our size and it's beating us.

  Casey Schuler : So, what do you want to do, take it to dinner?

  Sam Daniels : No.

  Casey Schuler : What, then?

  Sam Daniels : Kill it.

• Casey Schuler : You want a hotshot scope-jockey, fine, but, frankly, I'm hurt.

• [Sam, Salt, and Casey are examining the virus via computer] 

  Major Salt : Okay, sirs, here we go. These pictures were taken over a period of eight hours. Normal, healthy kidney cells before they met the virus.

  [the computer supports Salt's following claims] 

  Major Salt : In the space of an hour, a single virus has invaded, multiplied and killed the cell. And in just two hours, its offspring have invaded cells

  [points at the screen] 

  Major Salt : here, and here. Continually multiplying.

  [Salt clicks another button and the virus is shown to be spreading further] 

  Casey Schuler : Jesus Christ, five hours? It infects the cell, replicates, and kills this fast? These numbers can't be right Ebola takes days to do this damage.

  Major Salt : Sirs, the numbers are correct. I wish to God they weren't. One goes in, millions come out. Every cell is dead.

  [Salt begins to zoom in] 

  Major Salt : Now we see them individually, searching for the next victim until there's nothing left to kill.

  Casey Schuler : Mark this day, Salt. We could spend our whole careers waiting to see a new virus.

  [Salt zooms in some more] 

  Major Salt : Sirs, Mr. Motaba, up close and personal.

  Casey Schuler : I hate this bug.

  Sam Daniels : Come on, Casey. You have to love its simplicity. It's one billionth our size and it's beating us.

  Casey Schuler : So, what do you want to do, take it to dinner?

  Sam Daniels : No.

  Casey Schuler : What, then?

  Sam Daniels : Kill it.

• Casey Schuler : [to Daniels]  Allow me, sir.

  [to Salt] 

  Casey Schuler : Major!

  Major Salt : Yes... Major?

• Casey Schuler : I hate them willies, they ought to call them the Sams don't you think?
