Life, is mankind's

most precious resource.

It's the one thing that

every living creature

on this earth wants

more than anything else.

Now, the primary purpose

of medical science

has always been to

heal, to extend life.

But, what about improving

the life we have?

Shouldn't that receive just

as much attention and effort?

We are stimulus response

creatures at our core.

We do something that makes us feel

good, we want to do it again.

We do something that makes us

feel bad and we want to avoid it.

But, when the memory of these feelings

fade, especially the good ones,

we have to seek out this

stimulus all over again.

Like some drug addict

looking for another fix.

But what if we could

change all that?

What if you could

not only remember

the first time you fell in love, but

re-experience it in full sensory detail.

As if it was happening

all over again.

A revolutionary new

memory enhancement formula

from Hallorann

pharmaceuticals is about

to make that dream a reality.

Memory increases of up to 300%

have been recorded in

85% of all test subjects.

And not mere static memory, no.

Full memory recall.

Sight, smell,

taste, touch, sound.

With a9913, we can relive

our finest moments

any time we want.

It's instant access

to unlimited joy.

Now, how's that

for improving life?

Dr. Jerum, thank you for coming.

Did you enjoy the presentation?

It was entertaining.

Walk with me.

I understand your

position doctor

that as a man of science

you prefer to focus

on the details of

your work rather than

the big picture.

But where is Dr.

Rasmussen by the way?

I asked him to be here as well.

We aren't social.

You are one of the most

brilliant researchers

in your field and the

progress you've made

on a9913 is nothing

short of miraculous.

But the board doesn't

understand the ebb and flow

of scientific discovery.

They require results.

And well, testing

on the new compound

has been quite promising.

Hypothalamus stimulation

has been greatly improved.

Mortality rates stabilized

and side effects

have been reduced to

a reasonable level.

None of which will

matter to the FDA

unless they're supported

by more human trials.

The results from

this weekends study

will be ready to

submit to the FDA.

Good.

Don't let me down doctor.

In fact, don't

let humanity down.

How ya been?

All right.

Coming to beg tom

for your job back?

Didn't you hear?

I won the lottery!

Yeah I bought this place.

You work for me now.

Well, then I need a raise asap.

Not after I caught you

giving away free beer.

All right boss lady.

Tell me what my next

customer's gonna order.

Pi colada.

All right.

Hi, can I get like a pi colada?

Sorry, we don't have a blender.

Maybe a daiquiri?

Still no blender.

But why don't you go down there

and check out our specialty.

Let me know.

How 'bout this guy?

Ooh, Manhattan and a fake ID.

Excuse me.

Hey.

Hey man.

Do you have a Manhattan?

A Manhattan?

Yeah.

Do you have a real ID I can see?

Well at least you still

haven't lost your touch.

I have a gift.

Only if it would help

me get another job.

How about this guy?

Mind erasers.

Hey man, that

girl's pretty wasted.

Can you call her a cab?

Yeah, what's her name?

I didn't ask, I'll go check.

What was that?

What?

That cute little look.

Look, I came here to ask

if you know of anyone hiring.

Do you have an idea or not?

Actually yeah.

There's this.

Buddy of mines done

it a couple of times.

Says it's easy money.

Unless you really wanna

beg for your job back.

I'd rather sell

my body to science.

Let's begin shall we?

My name is Dr. Jerums.

I'm the lead researcher

for your study.

Thank you for making the

long drive this morning.

I'm sure it's rather

early for most of you.

There are some formalities

we must attend to.

You're welcome to read

along or just listen.

Hey, I'm here for the study.

You have agreed to

participate in a phase three

clinical drug trial of

a9913 Olympic simulator

designed to enhance memory.

As this is a blinded trial...

50% of the subjects will

receive the test serum.

The remaining 50% will

receive a placebo.

During the study you will be

confined to the upstairs dorms

where you will be

continuously monitored

by the Hallorann staff.

It is imperative

that every volunteer

reports any atypical

sensation experienced.

However, volunteers

shall not discuss

these sensations with

other volunteers.

Now, if you'll please

pass forward your signed

non-disclosure agreements

along with any keys,

cellphones, or other devices.

Why do you need our cellphones?

Umm, this is a very

confidential study.

Miss?

Nichols.

Miss Nichols, communication

is tightly regulated.

And our keys?

Leaving the facility

before the completion

of this study is

strictly forbidden.

We can't have you go

out on any joyride.

Thank you for your

participation.

The study tech Curtis will

take you to the dorms.

The campus is

spread over 20 acres

and provides research facilities

for over 1,800 employees.

At any given time there might

be 10 to 15 studies going on.

Then, why do you guys let

me come in once a month?

But, due to the

upcoming holiday,

we are running on

a skeleton crew.

So please, don't make

my life difficult.

We're also one of the

only privately owned

biosafety level four

facilities in the country.

Which means there are
