The Strain
The transformation has begun in season two. New York City is falling to an evil epidemic and no one is coming to its rescue. Its citizens must fight or die. Now Eph and Dr. Martinez concentrate on creating a biological weapon, while Setrakian searches for an ancient book he hopes will reveal the strigoi's history...and possibly a way to kill them.
Eph and Nora work on a biological weapon to kill the strigoi, and Setrakian risks the lives of the entire group to find information about a closely guarded secret text. The Master begins the next phase of his own plan, by creating a terrifying new breed of creature and placing them under the control of Kelly.
