<Lt j.g. Lectron, Slater's Planet Medical Facility>

	Lectron was over at another table, running some addiitional tests when McRae had her conversation with Beata.  He wasn't sure things were as solid as MrRae intimated to Beata over the intercom.  But she was in charge.  
	As he was completing a sub-cellular scan of one of the affected Sliders, he blinked--what was that?   Could it be possible?  He reset the scanner and began again.  The cell seemed to be hosting a strange virus--one that the scanner didn't recognize.  It appeared the virus was integrating itself with the nucleus and replicating the new DNA.  
	"Lt. McRae, could you come over here and look at this.  I think we have found our culprit."
	As McRae was getting away from one of the Sliders, Lectron thought again about the intercepted message.  Could it have something to do with this whole thing?  That virus had a familiar look to it, something he couldn't put his finger on.  It looked more terran than anything else, but without further tests, he couldn't be sure.  
	McRae started over to Lectron's table.  Damn, she has a sexy way of walking.
