Blakes 7 Quote

Dr. Bellfriar: Everyone who's been into deep space has had the Terran ague, or the three-day sweats as it's commonly known as. It's a sort of a mild infection, it slightly alters the body's nucleic structure, it seems to be a metabolic reaction to space travel. Well this new virus, Paratype 926, attacks those altered cells and acts as a catalyst, they burst and, well the effects are literally a series of explosions that race through the body's neural cell structure. The virus is easily cultured in human tissue or in nucleic acid solution. Now, here is the formula for the antiserum...
Blake: [On Liberator] Dr. Bellfriar, are you saying that this virus is only effective against human beings who've been in deep space?
Dr. Bellfriar: Precisely. It fits your theory. But I don't think that the virus was designed to *destroy* man, merely to confine him to his own planet. Now here is the formula.
Blake: Go ahead.
Dr. Bellfriar: H-N, H-N-O... oh my God!
Blake: Dr. Bellfriar! Dr. Bellfriar!
Dr. Bellfriar: I've forgotten how to read. [Dr. Bellfriar looks at his hands. They're covered in blisters. He groans and covers his face]
Blake: Transmission ends.
Vila: *Fosforon* ends.
Cally: It's no joke, Vila.
