Total Recall #7: Memories of a Lifetime

The screen flitters with images of high mountain peaks and deep ocean trenches. Douglas Quaid is captivated by what he's seeing. The voice of Dr. Edgemar, head scientist of Rekall, begins his narration:
"Would you like to ski Kilimanjaro but you're snowed under with work? Do you dream of a vacation at the bottom of the ocean, but you can't float the bill? Have you always wanted to climb the mountains of Mars, but now you're over the hill? Then come to Rekall Inc. and quote me. Where you can buy the memory of your ideal vacation cheaper, safer, and better than the real thing. So, don't let life pass you by. Call Rekall. . .for the memory of a lifetime!".
As Dr. Edgemar stands before the Rekall memory implant machine, a computer generated butterfly glides from his right hand. While the insect hovers above the Rekall logo, a chorus of women gently sing out: "For the memory of a lifetime---Rekall,Rekall,Rekall!".
