And lives are also being claimed by Monkey Flu as the deadly virus spreads. The police are also following up other leads outside, but when the murders continue, they realise that the serial killer is still inside. The PM quarantines the university with Valerie, 2 reporters and other non-university personnel trapped inside. Meanwhile the first case of Monkey Flu is confirmed at the lab from a swab belonging to student Carol, who is currently in the university sick bay. Detective Superintendent Valerie Crowther is sent to investigate as she knows BSL (British Sign Language). The murderer sneaks into deaf student Jamie’s room, knocks him unconscious before disabling the smoke alarm and burning him to death. Britain has closed its borders and so far has no cases of monkey flu.
