Not that you know of?
Oh, great.
That's very good.
Steve, you know that
I have trust issues.
And this b*tch is trying
to f*** my husband.
You don't talk about it though.
I am f***ing sure.
He held me down, and
he f***ing raped me.
It is my past.
I can't change it.
Why are you so jealous?
I am not jealous.
You just reminded me
that I was arrested.
F*** outta my house!
Both of you need to stop.
Both of you just stop it!
and Mike are best friends.
Did you f*** her?
Oh, my God.
I f***ing knew you'd
go there again.
Then why did you bring it up?
Because I clearly need
my f***ing head examined.
Yeah, you do.
because of your paranoia.
Help!
Help!
Help!
That's enough!
Shut up!
F*** you!
Get out of here!
I don't believe you!
[shouting]
Stop it!
Get the f*** out my house!
Knock that sh*t off!
I can't defend myself.
Get off, get off!

OK, I know you've been sworn.
I have read your statements.
Isn't it true that during the
course of this study, the three
subject couples exhibited
increased levels of hostility?
Yes, we did notice
an increased pattern
of increased aggression.
But if I must...
And yet you thought that
was prudent and necessary
to continue?
We considered the risk
within an acceptable range.
An acceptable range?
Someone was murdered.
Where does your
unacceptable rage begin?
Excuse me, but I
think it bears noting
that all three of these couples
were dealing with some very
serious stability issues.
Violence is a common
occurrence in these types
of relationships.
Our duty is simply to
observe and document, not
make judgments as to
whether the side effects
outweigh the possible benefits.
How do you determine if a drug
is doing more harm than good?
At this point, I would like
to defer to Dr. Baxter.
Sure, let's hear
from the good doctor.
Clearly, people suffering
from mental illness
have a higher incidence
of aggressive behavior
than the general public.
They may try to harm others,
themselves, including
hospital healthcare
workers trying
to provide care for them.
Now our studies have
commonly reported
that a small
subgroup of patients
were responsible for the
majority of these incidents.
Doctor, what subgroups?
Primarily people in volatile
domestic relationships.
So when you look at results
for this kind of study,
you would take that
into consideration?
Correct.
incidents of aggression,
when you adjust for
the overall numbers,
we actually see improvement.
Would you be able
to discern something
like this during the trial?
No.
In fact, it would
take several studies
involving hundreds of patients
before we could even make
that kind of determination.
I have a question.
What were the possible
benefits of this drug?
We were contracted by Darba
to do pharmacological testing
to aid in conflict resolution
by altering the
sensory experience.
Give a person keen
personal insights
by allowing them to look
past preconceived ideas
and prejudices.
Isn't that the same as LSD?
No!
Ours was not synthesized
through a fungus.
Instead, it was synthesized
through stem cells
of the empathetic
bonobo chimpanzee.
Based on early tests of the more
violent African chimpanzees,
we believed that
this new compound
could have had far-reaching
outcomes for everyone,
from individuals with
post-traumatic stress
