Total Recall #22: Going Ape Shit
Bob runs into Rekall's lab to find Ernie and Dr. Lull struggling to restrain a hyper-agitated Quaid. Doug has gone totally berserk, kicking Ernie across the room as he bellows: "AARRGGH! GET OFF! YOU BLEW MY COV-VA!! AAAHH!".Bob yells at Renata: "What's going on here?! You can't do a simple goddamned double implant??!!".
"It's not my fault! He's got a memory cap!", Dr. Lull yells back.
"DALE BE HERE ANY MINUTE!", booms Quaid. "DEY KILL YOU, ALL!".
"What the hell's he talking about!?!", asks Bob.
Frightened out of her mind, Dr. Lull screams back: "I don't know!!".
"LET ME GO!", blasts Quaid.
"Mr. Quaid! Try to calm down!", Bob shouts as he attempts to placate his once happy customer. . .

Total Recall #19: Tailor-Made Companion
As the sedative begins to work on Quaid, Dr. Lull continues to cull information from him: "I'll be asking you some questions Doug, so we can fine-tune the Ego program. If you answer honestly, you'll enjoy yourself a whole lot more. Your sexual orientation?". "Headro.", replies Doug.
"So, how do you like your women?", asks Dr. Lull. "Blonde? Brunette? Redhead?".
Doug, now noticeably sleepy, replies: "Brunette.".
Lull reads the list of body types: "Slim, athletic, voluptuous?".
Quaid groggily says: "Athletic.".
Punching in body type specifications, Dr. Lull reads out personality traits: "Demure? Aggressive? Sleazy? . . Be honest.".
Quaid, barely awake, says: "Sleazy.", but then changes his response to, "Demure.".
"41A, Ernie!", announces Lull. The program has matched a suitable companion based on Doug's tastes.

Total Recall #18: A Bit of a Lull
Prior to the memory implantation, Doug meets Dr. Renata Lull (Rosemary Dunsmore), Rekall's head programmer of purchased memories. She runs video of some of the highlights Quaid will experience on his trip. "Two-headed monstaaz?", asks Doug inquisitively.
Dr. Lull laughs: "Don't you keep up with the news? We're doing alien artifacts now.".
Quaid sees an enormous, stone-like structure appear on the screen. "It's a pile.", he says.
"Yeah, they date back a million years!", responds Lull. Changing the subject she asks: "Been married long?".
"Eight years.", says Quaid.
"Oohh, I see. Getting away for a little hanky panky.", quips Lull.
"Not really, I was always fascinated with Mars.", Doug states as a matter of fact.
"Ready for Dreamland?", Dr. Lull says before she injects a sedative into the right side of Doug's neck. The drug will relax him as his bought memories are being uploaded.

Total Recall #16: Sealing the Deal
Quaid now gives Bob his full attention. The option of going to Mars as a secret agent (via Rekall) has fully captured Doug's imagination. "Let me tantalize you." , says Bob. "You are a top operative back under deep cover on your most important mission. People are trying to kill you left and right! You meet this beautiful, exotic woman!" . . . McClane pauses and is prompted by Quaid to continue.
"I don't want to spoil it for you, Doug. But, you rest assured by the time the trip is over you get the girl, kill the bad guys, and save the entire planet! Now, you tell me! Isn't that worth a measly 300 credits!?!".
A big smile stretches out across Doug's face.

Total Recall #15: Always the Same
Rekall travel agent Bob McClane begins to list options for Doug's trip, but Quaid isn't interested. Trying a different approach, Bob asks Doug: "What is it that is exactly the same about every single vacation you have ever taken?". An irritated Quaid says, "I give up.".
McClane continues: "You! You're the same! No matter where you go, there you are! It's always the same old you! Let me suggest that you take a vacation from yourself! I - - I know it sounds wild. It is the latest thing in travel. We call it the Ego Trip!".
"No, I'm not interested in that.", Doug says casually.
Undaunted, McClane keeps his pitch going: "You're going to love this, Doug! We offer you a choice of alternate identities during your trip. Face it! Why go to Mars as a tourist when you can go as a playboy or a famous jock or . . .".
Before Bob can finish the list, Doug interrupts him by reading A-17; the last option: "Secret Agent!", he says enthusiastically. "How much is that?!".
Pointing his finger in the air, Bob says triumphantly, "Aahh!".

Total Recall #14: All in the Past
". . Nowadays traveling with Rekall is safer than getting on a rocket. Checkout those statistics.". Bob points to the monitor behind Doug and continues to tout the advantages of going Rekall."Besides, a real holiday is a pain in the butt! You got lost luggage, lousy weather, crooked taxi drivers... When you travel with Rekall, everything is perfect. So, what do you say?".
Doug is convinced and agrees to the mind trip.
"Smart move.", says McClane.
