You're a skint from the fugee camp

- [groans] - With your permission,
I'd like to use Everclear on the entire department.
Everything I'm doing is for Elena.
Only one person benefits from all of this.
Elizabeth's son-in-law.
They're gonna use Everclear on me.
The only way to get past it is to erase Aaron.
What do you mean,
"We're going to erase Aaron?"
When they put me through Everclear,
they'll find out about everyone.
Roger, Elena, you.
I need to map out my brain and lock all those memories away.
Away? Away where?
Here. This is an imprint
of my current neural map. Once I pass Everclear,
I need you to connect this to the base of my skull
to bring me back.
You'll only have a few days to do it
or Aaron will be gone for good.
If that thing doesn't lobotomize you completely first.
I'm just temporarily disconnecting some circuits.
Aaron isn't a circuit. It's who you are.
But he's not who I need to be right now.
This is gonna sting.

So now what?
Just, uh, flip a switch

Either that or this thing turns me into a vegetable.
