ADAM: Your thoughts are troubled. In turmoil. I understand, brother. We have a lot to discuss. Speak.

RILEY: What have you done to me?

ADAM: Nothing. It was mother, Your...Professor Walsh. She implanted the behavior modifier.

ADAM: Actually, the chip is here. (points to his chest) Tied directly into your central nervous system through your thoracic nerve. This is Phase One of your preparation. It lay dormant until the time came. I simply activated it, brother.

RILEY: Stop calling me that. I'm not your brother. You're a botched science experiment. I'm a human being, who's gonna do everything in his power to--
