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.

Are you sure? The board

and I both believe that is...

absolutely your call.

But we all know the risks involved

in moving forward too quickly.

It's going to work. I think that

we've uncreated a monster.

- Lot more cell phones!

- Tell me about it.

- This thing is tight.

- You'll get used to it.

The only way that truly gauge...

the effects of Anagress is to

observe you in the real world.

A controlled environment

can only tell us so much.

I haven't been on the

outside in a long time.

- What if I fall on my ass?

- You get back up.

This is it?

- I thought you were made of money.

- Beats your last address.

That's fine, guys.

- Thanks.

- Let's do it again.

- What's your name?

- Joe Monroe.

And what have you been

doing for the last 5 years?

Working in Cincinnati, Ohio,

in a packaging plant.

- Loading boxes in a warehouse.

- Good.

Here's 300 bucks and an

ID to get you started.

- And then what?

- Another 300 next week.

You're on your own.

It's nice.

- There's nothing in the fridge!

- Guess you'd better go to the store.

Something wrong?

No, just looking at the view.

All right.

I'll let you get settled.

He hasn't stabbed anybody in

the eye yet. So, that's a start.

Eden, I want a seratonin

metabolite analysis.

Oh, man, he's oh for eight.

What we'll do if no

one will hire him?

He's into current events now?

- He's checking out the classifieds.

- Impressive!

Yeah, Sully. Sully from inside.

He told me to call you.

you understand?

Why? 'Cause I gotta

buy groceries.

Sully, yes.

All right. Good.

I'll see you there.

- You guys hiring?

- You see a Help Wanted sign?

You in the blue shirt.

Come here.

- What?

- Think I can help you.

You can fill out this application.

- What d'ya wanna know?

- The usual.

I know everything about cars.

Foreign, American, everything.

All you need to know is how to drive

them 10 feet without crashing them.

I could do that.

I'm gonna have to get back to you

for the numbers for references.

Don't worry. Put any number. I'm

the one who makes the phone calls.

Give these away to people who get the

hot wax. You getting the hot wax?

- No, sir.

- He's filling out the application.

It's looking really good.

- Are you a hard worker?

- Very hard.

- Take drugs?

- No. Vitamins, but that's it.

You bullshitting me? I don't

want drug addicts working for me.

I don't take drugs.

Honest. No drugs.

I'll start you at 5,75 an hour,

plus tips.

Go grab a rag and talk to Alfonso.

Tell him Ralph sent you.

- I'll be back at one.

- Thank you.

Here. Better go before

he changes his mind.

- Thanks a lot. I appreciate it.

- Sure.

You Sully's friend?

Do I know you?

I'm Sully's friend.
