So it looks the a plague of some sort made them die....with the rats dying I think the Black Plague did them in. It was carried by the fleas that lived on rats and then spread to humans that lived in close quarters. The conditions at the prison are not too sanitary and farming in the yard where the rats live gives them contact wit the fleas. The black death was quick....you would die within 24 hours, from being healthy to dead that fast. Younger people and older people were more immune, those in between were not. A well written show last night.
