There's only 4 episodes of this left.  Since most of the episodes haven't really progressed the plot, it's likely going to have to end in one of three (four?) ways.  Some sort of ass-pull deus ex machina, Skinner isn't found and everyone who took Hapna dies, he turns himself in, or some other group randomly finds him (maybe this counts as #1.)

Egghead bureaucrats at it again.  Do these guys count as the deep state? 😄

Skinner is the first one to die if they don't find the antidote LOL.  So it really is an all or nothing thing. 

Not sure how an antidote works on a drug that inexplicably works like a virus.  I'm not sure the person who wrote this understands that drugs, viruses, and poison don't work the same way.  

Yeah it would be really dumb to go after Lazarus before they've found Skinner.  Even the government can't be this dumb.

LOL still gonna go rogue and try to go against Lazarus.  This side plot is also WASTING MORE TIME.

So the test is try to kill the guy instead of him trying to kill someone else?  And they're willing to sacrifice a whole special forces team for this.  What idiots.

This is also wasting more time in the show LOL.

Well, at least the animation and fight choreography are good.

Yeah that was a whole episode wasted on this side plot.  And it will continue next episode. 😄

I've been reserving judgement, but gotta agree that this episode felt almost like a total waste. Just told us Skinner didn't take the antidote and is going to die first and introduced a mysterious assassin character. Didn't really need a whole episode to do just that.

You know, originally I was thinking Alex was immune, but now I'm thinking he's not actually taken Hapna and doesn't know it, since there was that subtle reveal by Alex in his turn of the intro internal monologues by the crew at the beginning of each episode on how they each first took Hapna and he said he'd only tried it once and it was while in prison but that it didn't work for him and he still felt pain. In the ED symbolically he's the only one that gets back up while the rest of the crew is lying dead. I wonder if whoever procured it for him in the prison gave him a fake? Simple but subtle difference if he's not actually immune if things go down to the wire, he might not die but he also can't be the source of any cures either.
