Wendy Atwater, Langdon and others in “3:00 P.M.”

An operation?

Langdon

Well, you were just shouting a minute ago about infection, and with good reason. While I am sure you are in the clear for rabies and HIV, human mouths are filthy, some more than others.

How can you tell if it's bad?

Langdon

Good question. Dr. K?

King

I'm sorry?

Langdon

I am going to inject some sterile saline into your knuckle joint, which you won't feel 'cause of the anesthetic. If it comes spraying back out of the bite wound, we'll know.
