Synopsis: Lee Ray Oliver grew up from abused kid to sociopath, inevitably condemned to death, but wakes up in the morgue after the 'lethal' injection. Dr. Michael Copeland offers him a choice: the real killer drug or 'volunteering' as life-long test person for his pharmaceutic experiment, Anagress, meant to suppress violent tendencies but side-effects unknown. After vicious escape attempts, Lee Ray finally develops genuine remorse and tries to make-up with Gary Caputo, who Lee shot in the head, leaving him mentally a child. Brother Bill Caputo's hate for ruining both of their lives is however redoubled, with tragic consequences.

So, on behalf of...

the board of directors and the

shareholders of Hart-Mercer...

I wanna thank you,

Dr. Michael Copeland...

for your groundbreaking work

which continues to this day.

- Congratulations, doctor.

- Thanks.

- You look surprised to see me.

- Maybe a little.

Did you forget that

I'm a shareholder?

Made us both rich.

As you keep climbing the ladder,

don't forget to count the rungs.

Remember when all we wanted

was that one bedroom house?

With our very own washer and dryer.

- And I was gonna open up a center...

- Stop. You're making me feel old.

- How are you?

- I'm good.

- Congratulations, doctor.

- Thanks.

Barbara, this is Eden Ross.

She's a post-doc. Part of the team.

- Nice to meet you.

- My pleasure.

When I was an undergrad...

I read your paper on the educational

deficits effect on family violence.

- It was really brilliant.

- Thanks.

Now I officially do feel old.

Next time invent a pill for that. Bye.

- Nice seeing ya.

- Bye.

- So am I gonna see you tonight?

- I hope so.

Are you buying a car?

- Tuesday! Must be beef stew.

- I wouldn't be too sure.

I'm sorry, Lee Ray.

It's all right. It's cool.

No sweat.

I'll get something to clean it up.

- He didn't hit me.

- I could've made that accident...

more natural.

- This is very good, gentlemen.

- I did a decent Yago, senior year.

- Who the hell is Yago?

- We've got his MAO level.

Lambda K three is point one four.

This is your last chance to do

something good in your life.

Come on, man, just chill.

It's all right.

No, it's not.

- I'm gonna be sick again.

- Take a deep breath.

What's going on?

What's going on?

- I can see his face.

- Whose face?

Gary Caputo's.

Wrong time, wrong place.

He was just standing on the

stairs with a bag of groceries.

I should've just ran by, passed him

and just gotten the hell outta there.

It's OK.

He was in a coma

for seven months.

He had to learn to do

everything all over again.

When I was in prison,

I used to joke about him.

I used to brag about how

I made the guy into a vegetable.

What's important is you know

that what you did is wrong.

The treatment is working.

- It's working.

- Why can't I sleep?

I wanna put my head on my pillow...

close my eyes and not

see his face anymore.

It's gonna be OK.

We'll give him Somnubel.

Brock, that's two tablets

whenever he can't sleep.

Ladies and gentlemen...

we've got remorse.

How can we be sure

he's not faking again?

All of his biomarkers back it up.

Ever since week 5 his serotonin

and MAO levels have improved...

limbic and amygdale activity...

as well as BFS measures

have responded in kind.

I think we're ready for Phase 2.
