And in the middle of it disappeared.

If I let things calm down.

After months of intensive

testing parapsychological...

Do not want to be more a guinea pig

. And who would like to be?

If still alive, I will find.

And there they go.

thought better and I'm not interested.

but we have instructions to take it back to us.

Am I being kidnapped?

There are people in that

Tornhill want to talk to you.

Oh yeah and they will do if I

open this door and jump Huh?

I suppose I ought to stop him.

A and sent my mother understood. I wanted

to ensure that complete my studies.

Then nothing preventing us from continuing.

Walking.

Sit down, then someone will be with you.

-Continue with this,

I have a

knows that we're watching.

Hi Alex, I am Dr. Jane DeVries.

I'm glad you could come.

Ah, Perhaps you can tell me what the hell am I doing here?

- We work on a project.

Do you have a tank of geniuses

trying to test a new theory?

Since age 19 I have not taken

part in any event paranormal.

What good because we are not interested in gimmicks holidays here.

- What they are interested?

In dreams.

Dreams?

Why do you need so much security here?

We are cautious, we do not want

to leak any class information.

Here is our post monitoring of dreams.

Hi, guys.

All these people have regular nightmares.

These people here this phase MRO

- Rapid Eye Movement. A dream.

That is correct.

- I mean, I know a thing or two about it, Dr. DeVries.

I still think I have some things to show.

So, what is handled in this section?

Well here we delve into

sexual dysfunctions.

See if impotence is physical

or mental causes...

Watching the man in her dreams.

If not physical, the patient has at least 3

nocturnal erections.

I see. So Jane what you do here is to have

erections.

I see will be a great challenge to work with you.

- I have not agreed to cooperate.

Dr. Devries need a moment

- Sorry, I just take a second.

Hi Alex, you're late.

Novotny, I should have imagined.

- You're 9 years later.

You left me sitting in Chicago in a

Bioalimentadora machine overheated.

I was very busy.

I did not care that you left, but at least You

should tell me that you were alive. I was worried.

Worried about me or your

Investment in research?

Both.

I apologize but we both know

I'm not good at it ..

I spend much time. Good to see you.

- I also see you.

But was it really necessary to the kidnapping?

- Would you have come if you phoned?

Nice place you have here.

Who is the decorator, Darth Vader?

Come on Alex, we should talk. What do you

think at dinner with a couple of drinks?

Well, but before you jump on the check

I want to know some things.

I have no intention of spending the next

six months electrodes stuck up his ass.

Do not worry Alex, you can always go back to your

life before betting on the races and courting girls.

I will not go into your lifestyle.

It sounds as if you will approve.

- This right, do not approve ..

You have a tremendous gift, son.

Do not let it go to waste.

Anything else?

No, that's all.

We get something to eat.

Did they wish something else?

Let's make a little game.

- Okay, it's your party.

Let's say a man with the help of science...

You can project themselves into

the dreams of another person.

Ok, pretendmoslo.

Then pretend that one time

you're in the dream...

I again an active participant of the same.

What can be in the middle of her sleep.

I can actually feel the dream, experience.

You can even give shape or

alter the dream itself.

What say to that?

That is crazy.

We've done it Alex.

And not just once but three times.

Using two men with skills in

telepathy, similar to yours.

Enter the dreams of others?

That I have to see to believe.

The only thing that really is two

people joined at the head to a machine.

Because the real trick is going on here.

Do you mean that piece of equipment

science fiction with the connectors, right?

's Right, all it does is connect the machine

your brain with that of the dreamer.

With practice you will not need the

machine to introduce in dreams.

Why me? - Why you? Because you have

something that has the rest of us.

You can work your way

into the conscious mind.

When conditions are right

and perhaps with a little

help, you could enter

the subconscious mind.

In the world of dreams.

And only two people have managed to do this?

- Si. Before they meet you ..

Listen to Alex, you must
