...learn from our foreign friends and make our own special brand of rudeness part of the "American experience?" It could be a real windfall. We can export t-shirts emblazoned with "America Says You're An Idiot!" decals. Or mugs that burp when you finish your drink. Or those foam fingers with one particular digit extended. At the very least we know they'd sell awfully well in France...
...SUVs that look like nothing much except each other. Inside the cabin, the approach is more subtle, but still very futuristic, with a console angled slightly toward the driver, making the gauges easily readable and placing all the necessary controls within reach. With the exception of a pretty cheesy foam headliner, the CTS is finished more like a European car than an American one (read: the dashboard and door liners actually fit together without those yawning gaps).

Morgan's infected machines can likely be cleaned with foam, but Brentwood, where the anthrax was aerosolized, probably needs a full gas bombing. Unlike Hart, the warehouse-like Brentwood may be a good candidate for building-wide gassing, since it has no carpeting or decorations to damage...
