A woman named Anna Hopkins is killed in a carjacking. Briscoe and Green recover the car and arrest the thief. But then they learn that the victim, who worked for a medical research lab, was transporting a sample of the SARS virus in her car. Her boss, Dr. Charles Blanchard, suggests she stole the sample because she was planning a bio-terrorist attack. But a friend of Anna claims that Blanchard told her to secretly dispose of the sample by herself.
A SARS epidemic breaks out with several people infected. The "patient zero", Jeanine Williams, is a journalist who previously worked with Blanchard. They had an affair, but she broke up with him; now she believes he deliberately infected her. Blanchard is the father of her young son, who's immunocompromised and in critical condition with SARS. Her son dies, and now Blanchard faces a murder charge.
