What we're doing here is wrong!

What if her brain is damaged?

This technology is unproven!

-We need to test it. -We don't have time.

Do you trust me?

Yes, but we can always find other ways...

Hold her firmly.

Begin.

ELECTRIC DUST AGENCY

Boss! Mel!

Hi!

-Good morning, Mel! -Good morning!

Coffee?

Flat white for the boss.

My hero, meeting in five minutes. Please gather everyone, okay?

On it!

-Bro! -Hey, Fahim!

This is yours.

Caramel latte! You're so sweet!

Who needs a girlfriend when there's a friend like you.

Right.

What are you working on?

A new script for...

And Aira, how can I forget?

Your favourite, soy matcha latte.

-It's delicious. Thanks, Vinesh! -You're welcome!

And Kina...

Black coffee... with no sugar.

It's okay, you seem like you need extra caffeine this morning.

How much?

No need. It's my treat. No worries!

Guys, as usual, time for our morning meeting.

Let's go.

Let's go.

So, what are our cases for today?

So we have two cases,

the first one is Danial Safuan.

MA2. Memory deletion and insertion.

Fahim?

The script draft is ready. I've already passed it to Kina.

The script has been converted into code. Just need to run it through a compiler.

Then we are ready.

How about the new template? Is it good?

Yes, it's good.

The conversion process for the codes is getting faster.

But it'd be better if...

someone doesn't make sudden changes to the script.

Hey, I'm an artist.

Memories are canvas for my creative work.

The system has been calibrated to our client's vitals.

We'll do a thorough check once he's admitted.

Then we are good.

Alright! So, for the second case.

WENDY CHIN - SUBJECT REQUEST: TOTAL MEMORY DELETION

Does she really want to delete all of it?

I know Wendy personally.

She's my ex-schoolmate.

I don't know what to tell her anymore.

Total memory deletion is rare.

Let's do an assessment first?

Alright then, let's get going!

If only I wasn't fussing over my son at that time...

If I didn't wake up late...

-I want my bunny! -If only I didn't

-go back into the house... -Okay, I'll get your stuffed bunny!

If only I wasn't so stressed about my ex-husband...

Okay!

If only...

Michael!

Michael!

Michael!

I'm so sorry, Wendy.

But what you're planning to do is too extreme.

Aira, we've known each other since we were kids.

I will never make any decision hastily.

Please, I can't live like this anymore.

Every second and every moment,

I'm haunted by Michael. I can't.

Do you really want to forget that you once had a son?

That is like seven years of your memories.

It is too dangerous!

I'll sign all your waivers, okay?

If it is about money, I have my savings. I'm fine!

It is not about that.

It is about you.

Why don't we try meditation, counselling...

Hypnotherapy? I heard that it's the most recent and could help.

So you don't want to help me?

My work involves making assessments to find the best treatment for clients.

EDA can't just simply erase memories as per the client's request.

I want you to think very carefully about this.

I don't want you to regret it.

Damn you!

You must understand.

I need to question every single detail.

The investment that you're asking for is considerable.

I understand.

When you come for the demonstration, we'll prove it to you.

How is your father, Mel?

He is protective over EDA's technology, right?

Mr. Yoshimoto, I'm in charge now and I intend to bring EDA to the world.

I look forward to it.

Thank you, Mel!

Thank you very much, Mr. Yoshimoto!

Uncle Rahim!

How long have you been standing there?

Mel, have you thought carefully

about your deal with Yoshimoto?

Other neurotech companies are catching up to us.

We need a big investor for our R&D.

But nobody else is doing what we are doing.

Sooner or later

they will catch up.

We can't be complacent. We have to be one step ahead.

Yoshimoto Corp is the biggest company in the neurotech industry.

Just imagine, if we merge...

The technology will not be safe in their hands.

Even your father has stated that we need to protect EDA's legacy.

Am I right?

And this is the way for me to make sure that our legacy lives on.

We can't afford to be left behind.

This is my decision.

Furthermore, you will be retiring soon, right?

Give the opportunity for the new generation

to create our own path.

Miss.

Miss, have you performed all this before?

You want to erase the memory, right?

Please open this door! Open it!

Wendy?

Aira, you have to help me!

You have to help me!

We talked about this, right?

I know you're in despair.

I can't live like this!

Don't you understand?

Why can't you understand?

-I can't live like this! -Wendy, stop!

Stop!

Aira!

It's okay!

Wendy, look at me!

Death is not the answer, Wendy.

Aira, what do I need to do for you to help me.

Please tell me! What should I do?

Okay, I can help you. I will help you.

Trust me!

Alright?

You trust me, right?

Now, look at me.

Hand me the knife, okay?

Okay, Wendy.

Come.

Are you ready?

Miss?

Are you alright, miss?

Now, please count backwards from 10 to 1.

10, 9, 8, 7...

-Okay? -Thank you.

Hey!

Did you do my homework?

-I forgot to do it. -How can you forget?

-Money? -I don't have it!

You don't have money?

Hey, don't run!

-Come back! -Catch him!

-Give it to me! -I don't have it!

What is this?

Give it to me!

Only this much?

This is the money that I took from you the other day.

We're sorry that we bullied you.

Are you sure?

Yes, Danial. We have realised it now.

It's not good to bully.

You're a noble person.

Just get them to apologise!

I need to give him a good narrative.

Fahim, just make it simple. No need to be too poetic.

Both of you don't understand my art!

I've deleted it! Are you satisfied?

Danial, I'm sorry.

Come! Let me buy you some cendol!

Let's go!

What?

Neuro code ready!

MA2 proceed!

NEURO CODE LOADING NEW MEMORY

There's always drama at EDA.

Wendy?

She's okay now.

I've given her a sedative.

She's in the recovery room right now.

I think we should reconsider her case.

EDA was created to help people like Wendy.

What's wrong?

Migraine?

You should get it checked.

It's not just that. I'm having trouble sleeping now.

When I sleep, I get nightmares.
