Q
In “Ghost Dance” (Episode 6), the hydrophilic bacteria is referred to as a bacteria aerophoba.
 Aerophoba are yellow tube sponges, which contain high levels of bacteria.  When the men in
black spray the bacteria cloud with a chemical, it bears the formula C9H9Br2NO3, which it turns
out is the formula for Aeroplysinin-1, "an antibacterial bromo-compound from the sponge
Verongia aerophoba" (which is apparently used in cancer research).  Would it do any good to
spray a creature derived from the sea sponge with a chemical also sprayed from the sea sponge?
