    I agree with the first and last Mith, but I think the Christmas terror plot is from reality, i.e. the guy who tried to blow himself up on Christmas day.

    We're not going to the police. Imagine what would have happened if Gordon Freeman had asked the police or the Black Ops for help. That's right, we'd all be dead. So I don't want to hear anymore of that hating on Dr Freeman, hear me?

    Speaking of crazy scientist adventures, we need a name before we sign up for this test. I propose the name "Calvin Hobbes", since John Smith is the worst pseudonym ever.

    I don't agree with the experiment, but if you guys insist, you can ask around shops personally for jobs and at least find out why there is a shortage of jobs, if there is one.

    Also, GH only mentioned that job once, I don't think he really wants you to take it, its yourselves that really want to take it.

    Checking the newspaper for the address of the buiding in which they conduct the experiment, you walk a couple of blocks and arrive. You take the elevator to the 9th floor. It arrives, and you are about to step out.

    Are you sure you wish to proceed?

    I would italized no now if it were me, but I'm out numbered by people that like the idea of being guinea pigs.

    But I guess, well at least it would be interesting even if we die or something.

    I just like to remind nobody in particular that our orders were to inquire about what exactly it entails, and not to accept to take part in anything.

    Yes, I too thought that was the plan... to inquire not to take part.

    We are doing that, the "yes, proceed" was me thinking of walking in to inquire, etc. Not actually to do the experiment. I think there is writeup about what is inside, etc, first.

    Being a subject of psychological experiments myself, any legal and ethical study is basically so harmless, it is on the point of "fail". If this was the 1960-70's or something, then we might have to actually worry about anything harmful. (such as thinking we were killing a person, when we didn't and it was a recording)

    Uh, no. We already tried potential molestation as a tactic, and it didn't work.

    Proceed and enquire about the psychological experiment. Ask her if she knows any information, if she doesn't and direct you to the location where it is. Go to that location and speak to psychologist. When you see the psychologist, enquire about the psychological experiment, the nature of it, request the participant information sheet to read, and check it has been approved for ethical study, making sure it follows ethical guidelines which all legitimate psychological experiments have where the participant can quit the experiment at any time.

    You enquire about the psychological experiment.

    "Ah, yes," the receptionist says. "I'm sorry, but that's been completed a few hours ago. Don't worry, we didn't get very many participants though and we'll be doing it tomorrow if you're still interested."

    You exit the building and find yourself back on the streets of Phoenix.

    There are four different types of people playing this game.

    - Jason Bourne: This character is Jason Bourne, you are are guiding him through working out this plot.

    - Naive: These people have no regard to what the situation could be, and probably end up in a body-bag very quickly.

    - Worriers/Overly Cautional: These people would make you believe the bus was infested with man-eating plants, your water bottle is poisoned, underwear gnomes has stolen that close to your skin. These guys ultimately want you huddled in a cardboard box all game.

    - Clowns: Argubly, these people could be argued not to be playing the actual game other than cause mischief and messing up plans by randomly coming up, spraying alll bystanders with a golden shower and leave everyone else to pick up the pieces.
