DECEMBER 1921, ANTARCTICA
A group of explorers mapping the coast of Antarctica make their way through ankle deep snow. The lead explorer, MR ASHFORD, is a tall man in leather and fur struggling against the wind. His face is masked by a thick hood and face mask. Mr Ashford holds a measuring staff and a lantern trying to find sold ground beneath the snow and ice as they march forward into the wind. The men behind him, MR SPENCER and MR TRAVIS lug forward a small sled with three days worth of supplies and materials. They are dressed the same as Mr Ashford.
MR ASHFORD
The ground is sloping up ahead. I think we're heading back down to the coast!
MR TRAVIS
It'll be dark soon. We should head back!
MR SPENCER
Just a little further, till we're below the wind.
The ground below Mr Ashford breaks and he tumbles and falls down a tunnel into the darkness. The other two men rush forward down the slope to the cave entrance. The snow is knee deep, easily hiding the cavern below.
MR SPENCER
Ashford? You alright?
Mr Spencer and Mr Travis look into the pitch black cave. Mr Travis holds up a second lantern and they look on the ground for the safety rope tying Mr Ashford to the sled.
MR ASHFORD
Come down here! Hurry, you won't believe this.
Mr Spencer slowly climbs into the cave which he is force to crouched in order to walk. Mr Travis follow holding the lantern. Soon they enter a large cave expanding both left and right. Mr Ashford is crouch over a skeleton, not of a man but of a beast, some kind of bear or large cat like a lion. He looks back at them before pointing towards his lantern resting in the center of the cave. The two men walk over and look, in this dark and freezing cavern on the edge of the world there is a small blooming flower. It is surrounded by bones.

RESIDENT EVIL
JUNE 1998, ARKLAY MOUNTAINS
Umbrella Security Services Delta Team arrives at the driver's compartment of the Ecliptic Express Train owned by the Umbrella Corporation. The team is armed with M4A1 assault rifles and MP5 submachine guns. DELTA ONE enters the drivers cabin alone. The entire team is dressed in black clothing and tactical gear. Their faces are covered by helmets, polarized goggles and balaclavas.
DELTA ONE
Delta to Command, over? All passengers are dead and train is stopped about halfway up the mountain.
COMMAND ELEMENT
(Over radio)
Copy Delta, get that train moving. We have a Biohazard team on standby at the station yard. Investigation unit will pick you up via helicopter in 30 minutes.
DELTA ONE
Understood.
Delta One steps into the cabin and removes the dead driver before pulling down the lever which slowly brings the locomotive to life. The wheel begin moving and the train lurches forward. DELTA TWO and DELTA THREE arrive from the lead passenger cabin.
DELTA THREE
What do you think happen here?
DELTA TWO
I dunno, I never question the boss man.
DELTA FOUR
(Over radio)
This is Delta Four we have movement in the rear of the train, something big... we are about to investigate.
DELTA EIGHT
(Over radio)
We've also got movement here in the kitchen. Looks like some people are still alive.
Gunfire erupts on the radio. Delta Eight screams about something below him. Delta Four fires a shotgun blast at an unseen creature before his radio cuts out.
DELTA ONE
Delta Four you copy? Delta Eight respond!
Delta One checks his equipment to see if its working then looks up two his two companions. The pair are startled by something behind him. Delta One looks behind him and sees the zombified train driver standing behind him.

INT HELICOPTER - NIGHT
S.T.A.R.S. Agent Grade II JILL VALENTINE looks out the helicopter onto the dark forest below and clear night sky above. She is tall for a woman and is dressed in blue and grey police fatigues and a heavy kevlar vest. The Ecliptic Express slowly makes its way down from the mountain towards the city. Agent Grade I CHRIS REDFIELD sits opposite of her loading a M4 magazine full of hollow points rounds. He is wearing similar short sleeve police fatigues but a lighter kevlar vest with extra pockets. He is slightly above average size and does not wear any headwear.
BARRY BURTON
You won't need that. This is a rescue mission remember.
Agent Grade III BARRY BURTON nudges Jill back to reality and motions to Chris. He is heavier than the rest in the helicopter and wears a red vest instead of regular police fatigues.
BARRY BURTON
You'd look at him and think we were heading into Kuwait.
CHRIS REDFIELD
Never hurts to be prepared.
Barry nods realizing the valid point. He picks up an M870 shotgun from the stash, inspecting it.
ALBERT WESKER
I want comms open encase we get a signal from Bravo Team. Keep it quiet back there.
Alpha Team leader Officer ALBERT WESKER chides the group sitting in the back of the huey. Agent Grade III JOSEPH FROST laughs and feeds a new magazine into his MP5K. he has the same outfit as Chris but sports a bandana over his buzz cut. Barry grins and looks back at Jill who returns to her stargazing.
BARRY BURTON
Don't worry we'll find them.
CUT TO:
S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team sets down in a field outside the Spencer Mansion grounds. The entrance is unlocked and opened a crack with footsteps leading towards the house. Chris, Barry and Joseph takes the lead while Jill and Albert check the rear.
BRAD VICKERS
(Over radio)
I'll be back in 6 hours. I'll refuel and return to pick you up.
ALBERT
Don't keep us waiting.
The helicopter lifts off picking up dust which swirls around them. Alpha Team makes their way forward towards the mansion. Jill carries with her an AR-10 battle rifle while Albert Wesker casually holds an MP5 standard while checking his wrist mounted computer map. Barry Burton turns on the flashlight attached to the barrel of his M870 shotgun and walks beside Chris on point.
ALBERT
Looks like our paths diverge here. (into his earpiece) Chris, Barry check the front door.
Chris and Barry nod and hustle towards the front door, the exterior lights flickering in the summer heat. Joseph takes over as pointman but the trio stop for a moment while Wesker orients himself.
ALBERT
There is another entrance by the graveyard. Let's check if its open.
Joseph and Jill quickly follow Wesker who makes a beeline to the Spencer family graveyard. A small shack sits on the corner of the steel fence while an empty pool is closer to the mansion proper.
ALBERT
Jill check the shack. Joseph, come with me.
Wesker takes off, leaping over the black steel fence and knocking over a gravestone. Joseph and Jill are left alone for a moment.
JILL
You've got to be kidding me.
Joseph smirks and holsters his MP5K climbing over the fence with much less grace than Wesker. Jill marches off towards the creepy abandoned shack alone, in the dark.
CUT TO:
INT SHACK - SAME
Inside, Jill forces open the door and leans her flashlight inside. She leaves her rifle by the door and unholsters her M9 Samurai Edge for close quarters. Stepping inside she notices the thick layer of dust and cobwebs, however it appears as though someone has been living here. Jill summarizes there is no one in the shack and accidentally kicks over a bowl revealing an Umbrella keycard wrapped in a torn brown cloth. Jill leans over and inspects the keycard. It is modern and still new. She holsters her pistol and balances her flashlight on her shoulder as she prepares to radio the discovery in.
CHRIS
(over radio)
Theres nothing at the front door, it's unlocked but it sounds like nobody's home.
JOSEPH
(over radio)
Same here, we just found some fresh footprints in the mud. Looks like someone came through here after the rainstorm last night.
A dog howl echoes in the night. Jill lowers her hand and places her fingers on the grip of her beretta.
ALBERT
(over radio)
Jill, Chris inside now!
Jill pockets the keycard and runs out the door.
CUT TO:
EXT SPENCER GRAVEYARD - SAME
Jill races outside and gets a few feet down the trail before remembering her rifle. Running back she reaches out for it just as a zombified dobermann lurches at her from the otherside of the fence. Jill falls backward but does not scream. The dog barks and snarls at her but is trapped behind the steel bars. Jill grabs her rifle and runs back towards the mansion. Down the trail Joseph Frost lights a flare for Jill to find him. Wesker makes a motion to him but turns and heads inside. Josephe steps backwards following him but trips over something in the grass. He sits up and looks down finding the hand of Agent Grade IV Edward Dewey a member of S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team.
JOSEPH
What the fuck?
From behind him another zombie dog charges forward and bites into his armored shoulder. He screams and reaches for his handgun but a second dog slips through the fence and grabs his hand. Soon three more dogs attack his waist and legs, chewing into his flesh.
JILL
Joseph!
Jill stops and kicks away a dog, but the others are preoccupied and ignore her. She shoots the dog with a 7.62 NATO Armor Piercing round but it does nothing. A sixth dog runs up to her but she reacts and blocks it with her rifle. The dog bites into the polymer and tugs it out of her hands. Jill panics and runs back dropping her flashlight, pulling out her Samurai Edge.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION - SAME
Jill jumps through a window and shatters the glass. She falls onto the hard floor and gets several scraps from the broken shards but gets up. Only one dog follows her, breaking through a second window and chasing her. Jill flees and turns into a bathroom, closing the door. The dog barks and claws on the side. Jill crawls backwards across the tiles firing twelve rounds into the door.
The room and hallway grow silent. Jill quickly reloads tossing the mostly empty magazine to the side. She begins hyperventilating but stops and controls her breath taking out her inhaler and taking a long deep breath. She puts it away and slowly opens the door.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION HALLWAY - SAME
Jill opens the door and sees the dead dog lying on the other side in a pool of blood. She squeezes through the half open door and into the hallway looking both ways before going to the window checking outside for Joseph.
CUT TO:
EXT MANSION GRAVEYARD - SAME
Joseph Frost lies in a mangled form on the ground. Jill can only see from her flashlights glow but the other dogs are gone. Jill looks away horrified.
CHRIS
Jill? We... eard gunshots... where... re yo-
CUT TO:
INT MANSION HALLWAY - SAME
Jill frantically turns off her broken radio, swearing under her breath. She looks around but doesn't hear anything. A heavy rain begins to fall outside.
JILL
Chris, Wesker, Barry. Anyone come in? Joseph is dead we were attacked by dogs, can anyone hear me?
Jill quietly tries her radio but it is definitely broken. Jill looks around the hallway. To her left are the broken windows and beyond that a left turn. To her right the hallway ends with a closed door. She decides to head right towards the door.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION LIVING ROOM - SAME
Jill enters a large living room, the lights are on but nobody is inside. Jill enters with only her pistol, favoring her right leg.
JILL
Hello? Is anyone there?
The response is silence. Jill staggers forward before resting on a sofa. The red cushions hid her blood as she checks her wounds. Jill takes a moment to check her equipment. She has a broken radio, combat knife, a lockpick, the umbrella keycard and the three more magazines of 9mm not including the one in her beretta. She tears off her left sleeve and cuts it into strips to tie around her bleeding leg and shoulder. She pulls out most of the glass on her left side.
CUT TO:
INT DOORWAY - SAME
Three distinct shots ring out from behind a door. Jill ducks and aims her pistol in the direction of the gunfire. She quickly grabs her gear but leaves her now useless radio. Jill opens the door the sound came from which leads to a set of stairs.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION EAST TERRACE - MINUTES LATER
Jill gets to the top of the stairs and walks out onto the terrace. The bodies of Agent Grade III SPEYER FOREST and Captain ENRICO MARINI rest silently as the rain licks at their dead faces. Three fresh bullet holes spill blood which pools around their heads. Speyer was shot once in the forehead while Enrico was hit once in the cheek and another in the neck blowing out his throat. Jill checks the rest of the balcony but finds no one. She steps into the rain and kneels beside the two Bravo Team members. Enrico's MP5SD lies on the ground beside him while Speyer is still clutching his Samurai Edge carbine convert which is still harnessed around his chest.
JILL
Fuck.
Jill shakes her head in anger and gently touches Enrico's face turning his head and checking his radio. It is still working and she pulls it out of his ear and unclips the battery pack from his vest. The rain begins to pick up but the moon gives just enough light to illuminate Jill standing over the dead bodies. She clips the earpiece and radio on herself and stands up backing away to get out of the rain.
JILL
Anybody read me on this?
VOICE
Grzptik (static)
JILL
Hello, yes hello? I can hear you!
Jill notices something in Enrico's hand. She reaches down to pick it up, revealing a creature behind her.
VOICE
Behind you.
Jill turns around just as she is swiped by the massive creature. She is tossed like a ragdoll into a stone pillar nearly breaking her back. She staggers up but doesn't get a good look at the monster. She fires off a few shots and throws herself down the staircase.
CUT TO:
INT LIVING ROOM - SAME
Jill falls down the stairs in several rolls slamming her head and dislocating her shoulder. She grunts and stands up limping towards a pair of double doors. She enters a private bar and piano room. She hears the clanking of steel and moaning as the creature lumbers towards her. Jill moves through the room towards a steel door and thankfully it is unlocked.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION KITCHEN - SAME
Jill enters the mansion kitchen and sees a zombie chewing Agent Grade 1 KENNETH SULLIVAN's face. Jill is startled but fires her pistol. Firing four shots she kills the zombie and steps over both bodies as the creature breaks its way through the steel door. Jill thinks quickly opens a pantry and throws the shelves on the floor and climbs inside.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION PANTRY - SAME
Jill breathes heavily and looks through a small crack as the steel door breaks. The sound of the massive creature enters the room but Jill cannot see it. The monster grows closer its bare feet making a light tap on the kitchen floor. Kenneth reanimates and begins clawing the air and reaching out towards Jill. He moans a deep and gurgling howl which draws the attention of the monster away from Jill. The monster is a hunchbacked creature covered in a brown dress. Only its malnourished legs and thick arms can be seen, both chained and locked by heavy steel cuffs. The monster raises its hands and brings down its restraints on Kenneth's head crushing his skull and killing him. The beast soon lumbers off back out the broken doorway.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION KITCHEN - SAME
Jill steps out of the pantry and looks around before checking Sullivan. Blood pours out of his crushed head but his broken arm still clutches Edward Dewey's Model 700P sniper rifle with a infrared night vision scope. Jill looks behind her at the dead zombie she had just killed and inspects his laboratory uniform. The dead scientist is an umbrella researcher. There is a blood trail leading away from the two dead men, around a corner. Jill decides to follow it and get away from that creature.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION STAIRCASE - SAME
Jill slowly makes her way up the pitch black staircase. Using the IRNV scope she tries to take one step at a time but she begins shaking and her dripping blood causes her to slip and drop the sniper rifle. Halfway up the stairs she tries to find the rifle in the pitch black. Nothing jumps out at her and she finds it again and makes her way to the top.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION CORRIDOR - SAME
At the top there is a long corridor with pictures. Moving slowly Jill turns the corner and finds a still alive Agent Grade III RICHARD AIKEN leaning against the wall.
RICHARD AIKEN
Jill, thank God!
JILL
Richard, Shit.
Jill lowers the rifle and moves towards him. He drops his Super 90 and begins coughing, he has a massive chest wound and his right arm is swollen.
RICHARD
What the fuck is wrong with this house. I got bit by a giant fucking snake-
Richard slumps down now sitting, coughing heavily.
JILL
Take it easy. I found Enrico, Speyer and Kenneth. They're all dead.
RICHARD
Fuck man. Edward's dead to, Rebecca is missing. You have any anti-venom, I'm starting to feel tingly.
Richard tries to laugh but starts another coughing fit. Jill tries to help him.
JILL
No I don't carry anti-venom with me. What kind of snake was it?
RICHARD
Big, ugly. Like really big, and really ugly.
Suddenly down the other long corridor connected to this one, a massive snake (its head the size of a mini fridge) appears and slithers towards them.
RICHARD
That's the bitch.
Richard pulls out his full auto samurai edge while Jill grabs his Super 90 shotgun. They both begin firing and the snake screams as its right eye is blow apart, but it is also undead. The copperhead begins moving faster, its lower portion now free from the doorway behind it.
RICHARD
Jill look out!
Richard pushes Jill away as the snake opens its mouth to take a bite. The snake grabs Richards legs crushing his thighs with its teeth. Richard screams and the snake lifts him up and tries pulling him away.
JILL
Fuck off!
Jill turns back and fires into the snakes jowls splitting open its mouth causing it to drop Richard. The snake retreats ignoring them. Jill picks up Richard and pulls him around the corner. Richard begins wheezing, the double dose of venom beginning to work its way through him.
JILL
Aw shit, um. That was a fucking huge copperhead... this house has to have some antivenom for it. The closest hospital is eight hours away.
Jill remembers something. The Umbrella keycard, the dead researcher. They must have some medical supplies.
JILL
Richard I'll be right back.
Richard nods but his eyes are glazed over.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION KITCHEN - SAME
Jill races back down the stairs and finds the dead scientist. She checks his pockets and opens his hazmat suit. She finds a desert eagle and small note which is wrapped around a syringe.
JILL
(Reading note)
Kill it or don't come back.
Jill tosses the note away and checks the syringe.
JILL
A. contortrix.
Jill also finds the word YAWN scratched onto the side written in marker. She collects the antivenom and desert eagle and turns away to return to Richard, hefting the 700P with the IRNV scope.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION HALLWAY - SAME
Jill returns a few moment later. Richard has rolled himself onto his back and is shaking uncontrollably. A deep hiss from the snake reverberates down the hallway.
JILL
Here, this should be it.
Jill takes the syringe and finds a vein in Richards arm. She quickly injects him and he takes a deep inhale, his breathing unrestricted.
RICHARD
Shit Jill. I should've stayed home and rented a blockbuster.
Jill laughs and relaxes a little. Her radio crackles but then there is silence.
JILL
I think we're the only ones left.
The revelation hits Jill and her arm begins to shake. Richard notices but looks away, taking his Samurai Edge off the floor and feeding it a full magazine.
RICHARD
I'm sure someone else made it. We need to focus and get a clear signal to RPD. I was on my way to the roof before that S.O.B. got me.
Jill nods her head in agreement. But internal she can hear the screams of Chris and Barry as they are devoured by the undead in her imagination.
RICHARD
We need to get past that snake, as far as I can tell that's the only way up to the roof.
JILL
Right, okay. I'll go you stay here.
Richard tries to stand but the injuries to his leg and arm cause him to collapse and groan in pain.
RICHARD
Ah shit you might have to. I'll but a tourniquet on my arm and hold up here.
Jill smiles and drags Richard up into a sitting position. She hands him an extra 9mm magazine and takes his bandolier of shotgun shells. She loads the Super 90 with some fresh 12 gauge shells.
RICHARD
I'll set my radio to channel 3, you can contact me there.
JILL
I be back before you know it.
CUT TO:
INT MANSION THIRD FLOOR - SAME
Jill makes her way down the hallway and steps into a dimly lit attic-like storage room. In the opposite corner Yawn emerges from a dark corner. The snake slithers forward, blood dripping from its fractured mouth. Its one eye glares at Jill with a deep hatred.
JILL
Smile for me.
Jill raises the Super 90 and fires two rounds towards the mutated beast. The snake makes a shallow hiss and snaps its head forward trying to bite Jill. Jill dodges to her left around a wooden support beam.
VOICE
(over radio)
Help me.
Jill is startled by the gravelly voice over the radio. She hesitates and the snake quickly turns and focuses on her again.
JILL
Richard?
Jill fires two more blasts before moving around the snakes tail, now standing against a floor to ceiling window. The snake head follows her again now facing her with a snarling hungry mouth. Jill fire three more blasts taking huge pieces out of the snakes throat and stomach.
RICHARD
Jill look out.
Richard steps into the room firing his Samurai Edge and pulling out a flashbang. Yawn turns and suddenly focuses on the new threat. The flashbang rolls across the ground and detonates a few feet away from both Jill and the snake.
JILL
Hey asshole look at me!
Jill, although stunned herself, pulls the shotgun trigger aiming at the snakes exposed brain. However the gun clicks empty.
JILL
Fuck.
Jill tosses the shotgun at the snake but it ignores her and lunges towards Richard. The hind of the snake knocks into Jill, kicking her out the third floor window. Jill screams and falls two stories into a glass skylight. The snake and Richard fall out of view.
FADE OUT:
FADE IN:
INT MANSION DORMITORY - LATER
Jill wakes up in a daze. She is lying in a pile of shattered glass and her own blood. Over her radio, cracks of gunfire echo from an unknown source. The rain splashes across Jills face, the open skylight now allowing weather inside. Jill feels the back of her head, her scalp drawing blood when she pulls away. She looks away towards a noise. To her left a pair of black boots walk towards her, heavy breaths and creaking floorboards edge closer to her as her vision fades. Right before she passes out she looks up and sees an Umbrella Security Service gasmask.
VOICE
What the fuck happened to you?
FADE OUT:
FADE IN:
INT AQUA RING - LATER
The sound of dripping water stirs Jill from her dreamless sleep. She sits up finding her chest, stomach and both arms wrapped in a layer of bandages. Her body armor lies in a pile to her side shards of glass and dried blood stick to it.
VOICE
(distant)
This is Delta Nine anyone respond? I need medevac for myself and one RPD officer at the Spencer Mansion.
Jill rolls to her side and grimaces at her injured hip which begins bleeding. Her Samurai Edge is missing from her holster.
VOICE
We have held up in the Aqua Ring under the mansion dormitory, does anybody respond- damnit.
DELTA NINE tosses her headgear across the desk. Jill looks up seeing a woman in black fatigues and military grade equipment. She has a bandage wrapping on her right hand and is missing two fingers.
DELTA NINE
You're finally awake.
Delta Nine walks over to Jill and helps her up. She places Jill in a chair on the other side of the table. Jill now looks around and sees they are inside a command module overlooking a massive water chamber forming a cylinder in the center of the massive facility.
JILL
Wher... where are we...
Jill feels her forehead and wipes some dried blood off her temple.
DELTA NINE
Still in the mansion, well underneath it. Umbrella has a private facility underneath the entire property.
JILL
Umbrella? The pharmaceutical company?
DELTA NINE
Yep, my current employer. Listen officer I know this is a lot to take in be we don't have a lot of time here. You took a big fall, I'm surprised you're still alive to be honest. We have about 36 hours before anyone notices I'm missing. What about you, anyone waiting to pick you up? Is there a way out of here?
JILL
Helicopter will be back in 6 hours... it's been four.
Jill shakes her head finally noticing the bite mark on the woman's tricep.
JILL
Did someone... bite you?
Delta Nine quickly hides her wound and places Jill's Beretta on the table, along with drawing her own P226 pistol.
DELTA NINE
Yeah, I had a bit of a disagreement with my landlord. Listen we have two hours before a rescue party comes looking for you. We can't leave the mansion with those dogs running around. Is any of your team alive?
JILL
No... yes... I don't know. Wesker, maybe Chris. I haven't seen any of them for a while.
DELTA NINE
As much as it pains me to admit we need to work together in order to get out of here. The values are all stuck and someone needs to stay here to monitor the water pressure.
Delta Nine slides Jill's Samurai Edge across the table, along with three magazines of 9mm.
DELTA NINE
My callsigns Bobcat, but you can call me Walker.
CUT TO:
Jill makes her way down a metal ladder to the bottom floor of the Aqua Ring. E Walker remains in the command module sitting down behind a terminal. The zombie great white shark, Neptune, swims higher up in the tank not yet noticing Jill.
DELTA NINE
(Over radio)
The pressure gauge is located on the far side of the chamber in the maintenance facility. There's been some kind of leak so you'll be walking in knee high water.
Jill rolls her eyes and braces forward, her flashlight giving off a small light. The main light grid is still on but weak and flickering. Jill moves around the massive water tank towards another ladder.
JILL
(Over radio)
So how'd we get into this mess exactly?
DELTA NINE
(over radio)
Pfft which one? When I dragged you in here I triggered a emergency failsafe which locked us inside. If we don't fix the water pressure the tank the computer won't override the lockdown.
JILL
(over radio)
I sort of meant-
DELTA NINE
(Over radio)
If you mean to escaped biohazards and killer mutants, that is classified.
Before Jill can retort Neptune smashes his nose against the glass right beside her. Jill jumps and nearly falls off the ladder. She drops her flashlight which lands with a loud thud. Neptune swims away deranged.
JILL
Jesus Fuck!
DELTA NINE
(over radio)
Oh don't mind him. The glass is reinforced, he won't break through.
All the same, Jill quickly down the ladder to get away from the shark. She picks up her flashlight and observes the lower deck of the Aqua-Ring. A one or two inch level of water rests on the ground floor. The door to the maintenance office is about to burst but the water pressure valve is on the other side. Jill approaches the door hesitant to open it.
JILL
(over radio)
I'm about to open the door to maintenance.
DELTA NINE
(over radio)
Good luck.
Jill opens the door, pulling down the metal door handle. Water pours out but only about knee height. The room quickly drains and floods the floor to about 6 inches of water. Jill enters and notices a massive crack in the water tank glass. Delta Nine coughs over the radio a deep and wet hack.
JILL
(over radio)
You okay?
Delta Nine turns on a security camera in the room and a TV screen allowing them to see each other.
DELTA NINE
(over intercom)
I've been better. The virus takes a few hours to kill the immune system, I'll get the cure before then.
JILL
There's a cure.
DELTA NINE
You didn't hear it from me.
Jill approaches a series of levers and panels. Two are glowing a warm green while one is offline and remains dark.
JILL
I would guess its the second one?
DELTA NINE
Yep
