Briefing
Penumbra Researcher Chambers:
 * "We had three different viral weapons projects going on here in Section Five, but I've no idea which escaped and infected the Machina. If we're going to get this under control, I'm going to need a sample of each of the viruses.


 * See if you can locate Researchers Davies, Foley and Markham. They were heading up each of the projects and they should each have a sample of the virus they were working on."

Debriefing
Penumbra Researcher Chambers:
 * "You got samples of all three viruses? Excellent. I'll identify which of these is responsible and see if I can synthesize an antidote."
