To make you a better parent, a better spouse, a better kid But most of all a better employee A more productive citizen The money for expensive treatments always has to come from somewhere

That show was so trashy and so bad in a lot of ways but he touched on so much real stuff in the writing The trigger for the Dolls going back to be reprogrammed is "It's time for your treatment" (which they make a joke out of with Paul misremembering it as "You need therapy")

Really pushes a lot of buttons Like hopefully everyone realizes Musk's mood-improving brain implant is grifting vaporware but we are obviously heading down this road in the future
