Unfortunately, the doctor does have orders to do something 'weird' to Reagan -- specifically, to the tune of sedating him. The capo had not been happy to hear that Daniel had released his prisoner without clearance.

To accomplish this, Daniel had injected the sedative into the rubbery part of the IV line prior to returning. Since the drug is clear, there's no indication that the line has been tampered with.

Keeping a lid on his trepidation that Reagan will later lash out against him in resentment, he inserts the catheter and secures it with medical tape, and then he inserts the syringe of the IV line into the catheter and secures that, too.

He stands and fiddles with the line to adjust the drip rate. The sedative loitering in the line itself flows into Reagan's blood stream, followed by the normosol. In a few minutes, Reagan will begin to feel sluggish.

Daniel hopes to be gone before then.

"That's it. This will provide what you're lacking," he says, voice betraying none of his concern. He tells Reagan when to stop the drip and shows him how to do so, then goes about cleaning up and putting his supplies away.

On his way up the stairs, he adds, "I'll talk to them about upgrading their hospitality."
