:06:02
I want you to come back to me.
:06:06
- Bullshit.
- What's bullshit, Mr. Quaid?
:06:10
That you're having a paranoid episode
triggered by acute neurochemical trauma?
:06:14
Or that you're really
an invincible secret agent from Mars...
:06:18
who's the victim of an interplanetary
conspiracy to make him think...
:06:22
he's a lowly construction worker?
:06:31
Stop punishing yourself, Doug.
:06:33
You're a fine, upstanding man.
You have a beautiful wife who loves you.
:06:38
Your whole life is ahead of you.
:06:42
But you've got to want
to return to reality.
:06:46
Let's assume I do.
Then what?
:06:52
- Swallow this.
- What is it?
:06:55
It's a symbol of your desire
to return to reality.
:06:58
Inside your dream,
you'll fall asleep.
:07:04
All right, let's say you're telling
the truth and this is all a dream.
:07:09
Then I could pull this trigger
and it won't matter.
:07:11
- Doug, don't.
- It won't make a difference to me.
:07:14
But the consequences to you would be
devastating. In your mind I'll be dead.
:07:19
With no one to guide you out,
you'll be stuck in permanent psychosis.
:07:22
Doug, let Dr. Edgemar help you.
:07:24
The walls of reality
will come crashing down.
:07:27
One minute you'll be the savior of
the rebel cause, and right after that...
:07:30
you'll be Cohaagen's bosom buddy.
:07:32
You'll even have fantasies about
alien civilizations, as you requested...
:07:36
but in the end,
back on earth you'll be lobotomized!
:07:41
So get a grip on yourself, Doug,
and put down that gun!
:07:50
Good. Now take the pill
and put it in your mouth.
:07:58
Swallow it!
