Generally a good show, but this episode was silly beyond words. Apart from the basic premise of the story, the execution was incredibly sloppy - would the FBI really go after someone known to be extremely highly contagious with a deadly disease without any protection whatsoever? The disease (synthesized from a 700 years old plague) kills in hours, but they manage to get the antidote from the perpetrators just in time to save their key agents and, somehow, people all around the world. The story was totally lacking in credibility. It was more like an uninspired episode of a poor soap. All we needed was an intervention by aliens! What went wrong?
