That?s important, because HIV is a tricky, genetically unstable little customer. The bad news: T-20 has to be injected, not swallowed as a pill, which suggests the drug gets destroyed by the stomach.

But viewers are still supposed to find the Crane boys sophisticated and lovable and ever ready with the withering riposte. Au contraire, they are often insufferable.
