:39:00
The most unbelievable thing I've seen!
:39:02
I'm watching the birth agony
of a mountain!

:39:06
Oh, my God.
:39:07
Are you okay?
:39:10
I'm fine. Really, I'm fine.
:39:14
Do you want me to bring you down now?
:39:19
What happens now?
:39:20
He's blacked out.
These blackouts can get pretty freaky.

:39:23
Sometimes they last as long as four hours.
:39:25
When he comes out of it, he's as chipper
as a bird, but he doesn't remember a thing.

:39:29
Just how dangerous is this stuff
he brought back from Mexico?

:39:32
I didn't say dangerous,
just said it was weird.

:39:34
It hangs around too long...
:39:35
...and what's really screwy is
it heads straight for the brain.

:39:39
Well, I don't believe this.
:39:42
You guys are shooting up with an untested
drug that stacks up in the brain...

:39:45
...and works in the nucleus of the cell
and you don't call that dangerous?

:39:48
For the record, we don't actually shoot up.
:39:52
-Eddie drinks a 10-milligram....
-It will stop now!

:39:54
You guys are supposed to be
reputable scientists...

:39:56
...not two kids in the dorm freaking out
on Mexican mushrooms!

:40:01
Why do you think I called you for?
Let's see you stop him.

:40:11
This ain't LSD, goddamnit!
:40:13
This is no serotonin antagonist
you're drinking!

:40:16
How many grams of that stuff
you think you've got in you?

:40:18
Two? Three?
:40:21
You could be working up
one hell of a case of cancer...

:40:23
...with all the antimetabolites in you.
:40:25
The Hinchis have been drinking that stuff
for centuries with no incidence of cancer.

:40:29
Fuck the Hinchi Indians!
:40:30
You don't know anything
about those mushrooms!

:40:32
They seem to have
fantastic staying powers!

:40:34
We've shot up at least 30 rats
with that stuff.

:40:36
Some of them have
a whopping load in them...

:40:38
...and none of them have been
noticeably affected.

:40:41
Where are we going?
We were going to get something to eat.

:40:43
Eddie wants to show me an isolation tank.
:40:45
Isolation tank! You guys get flakier
every time I talk to you!

:40:49
I thought all that isolation tank stuff
went out in the '60s...

:40:51
...with Timothy Leary
and all them other gurus!

:40:54
Will you shut up for a minute
and let somebody else say something?

:40:57
What happens during
these blackout periods is...

:40:59
...you get the feeling
of phenomenal acceleration...
