Lehane implied that his character Dave’s abduction was an alternate scenario of what he and his foe might have experienced had their failure to confront the officers about their identities proved more serious...
...head off that scenario that Ho has traveled more than a dozen times to China over the past three years, setting up labs, visiting clinics, gathering blood samples, educating health workers and negotiating the intricately layered bureaucracy of the Chinese health establishment. Ho's efforts?and those of other AIDS activists?finally paid off last week when, on World AIDS Day, the Chinese government took a lesson from its sluggish response to the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic and launched its first big AIDS public-awareness campaign, complete with posters, TV spots and an unprecedented visit by Premier...

And of course, the creature design has that signature sick flair that one expects from id's artists, who almost certainly were badly mistreated...
