He purposely infects one of the technicians. More importantly, we can see that Porter knows she is lying. Bridgett gives a generic-sounding message from his wife and she’s fine. He threatens to kill himself if he doesn’t hear from his wife. They’ve been experimenting on him for two months now, and he’s had more than enough. He wants to know if they’ve told his wife what happened to his son, who melted in his arms.
