  • Robert Franklin (also known as Patient Zero) was a clumsy but good-natured chimpanzee handler at the Gen-Sys Laboratories, where Dr. Will Rodman was researching a cure to Alzheimer's Disease. After being ordered to exterminate all chimpanzees exposed to a potentially dangerous drug, Robert discovered a new-born baby chimpanzee who he could not bring himself to euthanize. Unable to rescue the chimpanzee himself, due to his brother-in-law working in security, Robert asked Will to raise the chimpanzee, who was later named Caesar.

abstract
  • Robert Franklin (also known as Patient Zero) was a clumsy but good-natured chimpanzee handler at the Gen-Sys Laboratories, where Dr. Will Rodman was researching a cure to Alzheimer's Disease. After being ordered to exterminate all chimpanzees exposed to a potentially dangerous drug, Robert discovered a new-born baby chimpanzee who he could not bring himself to euthanize. Unable to rescue the chimpanzee himself, due to his brother-in-law working in security, Robert asked Will to raise the chimpanzee, who was later named Caesar. Eight years later, chimpanzee testing resumed at Gen-Sys and Robert returned to his former role. While the refined ALZ-113 drug was tested on a bonobo named Koba, the ape had a strong shake in his restraints and Robert was kicked in the face by Koba's wandering hand and exposed him to the 113 by pulling the formula's feed tube out, and even though he quickly put his mask back on properly and was infected with the virus. Realizing his mistake, Robert tried to get to Will to tell him that he had been infected, and met Will's neighbor, Hunsiker who wanted to know who Robert was and why he was in the neighborhood. A startled Robert accidentally sneezed coughed up blood on Hunsiker, passing the virus on to him, after which Hunsiker aggressively ordered him to leave. This act would cause the Simian Flu epidemic that would result in the fall of humanity. Soon after, Robert's body was discovered in his apartment by his neighbor, Dottie, his body still bleeding black after he had died. Linda Andersen phoned Jacobs to tell him about Franklin but was too late and ignored her due to Caesar's revolution inside the Gen-Sys building. The same fate would happen to Hunsiker and apparently, billions of humans worldwide. In the coming years after his death, Robert would be labelled as "Patient Zero", a lab technician who was the first to be exposed to the ALZ-113, now dubbed the "Simian Flu".
