Solomon thinks, Andrews is going to lose it. CED. Okay, just got to get something out of this guy. He's already hostile, so let's see how cool he is. "Dr. Cortez," he says in a low, dangerous voice, " I can appreciate that you are in a difficult position. But I think that we deserve a bit more respect regard to this case. Santana put a knife four inches into my gut. I been in the ICU four days from that - Only reason he didn't kill me is that my partner and I are two tough bastards." He leans in a bit as he says it and let it linger a second before continuing. "But see here's the thing: in the hospital, I never got treated for plague exposure. Not even after Andrews arrived. They got his story right - stuck him in isolation, probably filled him full of enough antibiotics to keep a rhinoceros healthy. But I wasn't quarantined. That cute nurse who changed my bandages didn't even wear a mask. Someone even brought me flowers. So when those reporters who called me about the 'Route 70 Killer' asked about plague, I was confused. But I've put them off [*almost imperceptible pause*] for now. See, I'm willing to be good. I'll go along with whatever is being fed to the public, and I'll dance on whatever strings all of us are suddenly tied to. All I want in return is to know who's pulling them."
ooc: Intimidate. Solomon is trying to imply that he'll leak things to the press that cause big headaches for Cortez. Solomon is also trying to imply that he is a very large, dangerous man.
