[QUOTE="talien, post: 4001907, member: 3285"] [b]Welcome to the Show: Part 4d – Hank’s Story[/b] As they entered Hank’s room, Hector closed the door. His demeanor changed. “Now Hank, I want you to listen to me very carefully. Because there’s a video camera on us, I’m going to keep my back to it. But the camera can see you, so you have to remain calm. Okay?” Hank swallowed hard. What the hell was going on? “Sit down on the bed please.” Hank stiffly reclined onto his bed. Hector rattled the bottle of medication in his hands. “First, I want you to know that I believe you. I think something did happen in Belize that you’ve never quite recovered from.” Hank nodded. “Second, because of that experience, I am authorized to extend an offer to join a very elite organization.” Hector held up one hand to forestall any other questions. “Hear me out first.” He handed Hank a plastic cup of water and two pills on a napkin. “Majestic-12 is a clandestine taskforce that deals with the elimination and obscuration of preternatural phenomena that pose a threat to our citizens and their country. We believe you would be a valuable asset in maintaining the veil of secrecy necessary to keep society whole, and an important ally in the battle against unknown threats. Look down at your drink.” There was a blue pill and a red pill on the napkin. “If you find this prospect appealing, take the red pill and papers will be arranged so you’re transferred out of here. If not…then simply take the blue pill and you can resume treatment with Dr. Van Dyson tomorrow.” Hank stared at Hector. Was this a hallucination? Had he finally snapped? Or was Hector really the agent of some shadowy organization, here to rescue him? He thought of Mal’s words. Maybe he really didn’t belong here. Hank took the red pill and washed it down with water. “Good,” said Hector with a smile. “According to the camera you’re just taking LY2140023.” He reached over and folded the blue pill into the napkin and put it in his pocket. “What if I took the blue pill?” “The blue pill was the medication Van Dyson had prescribed for you.” Hank was starting to feel a little woozy. He laid back on the pillow. “But that’s not LY2140023?” Hector shook his head. “It’s a high dose of chlorpromazine.” Hank felt he should be alarmed, but he wasn’t. He felt as if he was floating. “You mean thorazine?” Hector nodded. “The doctor’s drugging all his patients tonight for something…I’m not sure what. I would normally have slowly introduced you to the idea of joining Majestic-12, but circumstances have forced my hand.” He patted Hank on the shoulder, looking to the camera just like a doctor reassuring a patient. “Good luck, Hank.
