We must be strong...

, Pete.

Right.

But I can not do it alone...

... Need a reactor antidepressant.

Do what you have to do.

This is ml bottle.

There are many similar,

but this is mine.

ml She's best friend.

ml life.

I drink until the end of the world.

Without me...

... ml bottle is useless.

Without ml bottle, I am useless.

I drink before I drink him to me.

Before God I make this vow...

... not believe in God, you fear God.

We only have a few days to drink this bottle

...

... until there is not a single drop of whiskey

.

... until there is not a drop of whiskey

.

I drink this before that he would drink to me

Pete!

Pete! Listen f***!

We can not evade this conversation.

Need redemption.

We must do this now!

Okay...

... But, I'll have another drink...

... And I hope soon accompany

...

... Before we suffer another one of those...

... Hiroshima style panic attacks.

Io You know what I mean,

the shakes and stuff.

Sh*t!

What happened?

System...

... He lied...

... We are about to die...

... So what did we do?

Nothing...

The system told us:

"Life is short, buy more".

But what we ?

Absolutely nothing.

Stole our identity system.

Maybe I was a consumer

robotic...

... And never had anything real.

You have nothing, Pete.

've Never had anything.

Do you? No I know.

It's just what I'm trying to tell

.

The system erased my past!

The system, the system always

damn system!

The system is now completely useless.

What is the system?

God, Pete! Come on.

- Let's go down to the casino.

- Still thinking about money.

Money is completely useless at this point!

Not only are addicted to alcohol,

're addicted to money.

The system programmed you to...

... You developed an obsession for the money.

If you buy or sell

completely useless to them...

... Invisible disposable Pete.

Quiet.

Gambling is fun,

is entertainment.

Also...

...

Give us free alcohol when we bet.

F***!

No!

- I will not drink.

- Jesus.

Not want to drink.

I am going to make another slave

, like you.

Yes .. Well, guess what?

You're a slave to yourself

and I am a slave...

... A guy named Pete Nelson.

I'm your prisoner.

Even a few hours of...

... Runs this f***ing lie!

Come on!

Look at me!

I'm trapped in this room. Pete, please!

Me out!

No! F***!

End of discussion!

What are you doing?

No sh*t, Pete!

F*** you and your life suppressed!

If you pull the trigger, we die

both.

- Think.

- We're not sure why.

And you know what?

In a few hours we will be...

... Organic waste anyway.

Die So f*** up!

What?

And who the hell are you?

I'm you... and so are you.

Wait a second.

Calm down.

You should not be here.

No space for another Pete.

You thought having a split personality problem?

No, no, no, no, Pete, this is...

Far more complex... Io you think.

No, no...

All humans left on this planet...

... Have two personalities:

A personality primitive, childish and immature...

... And a modern, sophisticated and rational

.

The second description has been super imposed...

... By our power structures.

Whenever

personality archaic and primitive...

... Try out...

... Looking inhibit civilization.

I accidentally let it out...

... With some restrictions, of course

.

The power structures...

... Used to the media...

... To create the perception that we have about ourselves

...

... To play with our minds.

We were designed by

Masters of Propaganda.

And having reached that level of humiliation

...

... We have to blame the "Boss".

Yes, "The Boss"...

... We put it in the ass.

BEHIND A POWER STRUCTURE

BEHIND A RELIGION

BEHIND A CULTURAL EXPLOSION

A DREAM CHILD BEHIND

EVIL BEHIND OF A SOUL

We are able to sell the antidote...

...

... But I never left here...

So you are the ghost of Jimmy

So there really life after death?

Well, do not know if this can be called
