Neil

Neil was one of the passengers on the train with a bird flu outbreak.

History
Neil had just returned from Bashran when he boarded a subway train. The train stalled, injuring some of the passengers, including Neil. Maya and Jack responded to the call and started treating the patients. However, they quickly discovered that Will, a young passenger, had symptoms of avian flu. And Neil, who'd been on the same flight as Will, had them as well. They called in the CDC and announced the situation to the other passengers, who were worried. When Neil started to struggle to breathe and collapsed on the floor, Sarla, a passenger with a crush on him, helped treat him, using her past experience as a lifeguard. When the ambu bag she was using wasn't working to get air to his lungs, she abandoned in and gave breaths directly with her mouth. He started breathing again and shortly afterward, the CDC arrived and everyone was evacuated and decontaminated.

Romantic
Every day, Neil rides the same subway train as Sarla. Despite her being attracted to him, she never made a move.
