The same testing. Don't forget that I'm the one who first sent off the samples. The lab tech couldn't identify a source. Is that Patil? [At the time, they were nameless for Clarke. They're still nameless, though she knows that Fitz likely identified her specifically the night of the attacks. Clarke doesn't bother to look back right now.]

If that's where she's been testing, then we know that whatever the drug is, it isn't on a known market. That points to actions done on the sly. I think any of the systems she'd use would be able to find the compound that was identified. I wanted to look at corporate because that's how it was done back in the day. Everything we had on the Ark growing up had a label on it. Just ... all of it was rationed. I never knew what the labels meant beyond that they were for brands that were long gone. And I never learned much about capitalism because our society was inherently trade-based. Rationed all the way down.

I'm explaining this because I'm afraid I missed something. Perhaps in writing it off as corporate because Patil's labs are good enough is the wrong way to look at it? Tell me if I am missing something.

Do we have a reason to believe the VP wasn't infected? Do you think they faked it?
