- Nice titties. - Knock it off!
- Maurice, not now.
- It was a compliment. - How much longer?
- Soon, sweetie. - Mom?
- Quiet. - I just want to ask a question.
Why does Luke have such nice titties?
- I said knock it off. (father): Enough.
- Playful teasing builds character.
Luke needs that.
- Anything?!!
(cheerful music)
(narrator): Doctors Ben Morin and Catherine O'Neal
were on a scientific journey,
which began long before they were even born.
- Ah! (father): Hey! (boys arguing)
(narrator): Catherine O'Neal was the only child
of two prominent physicists who died tragically
in a helium explosion when she was 12 years old.
She was raised by her aunt Libby,
a prominent psychologist and... beer aficionado.
- I think we owe them and we owe ourselves a better country than that.
(narrator): Ben Morin came from a long line of scientists,
every single one more successful than the last.
But as a child, Ben had no affinity
for science.
He spent most Saturday mornings
playing point guard with the neighbourhood kids.
- You okay, son?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
- Sport isn't your calling, son.
- But I almost had the rebound.
- You're a scientist through and through. It's in your genes.
Now, come on, let's get some ice on that noggin.
- I'm okay to play.
- You are better than this.
(narrator): Ben never played basketball again.
- I'm not gonna tell you twice now! Come on.
- And took his rightful place in the family tree.
He focused on his schoolwork
and developed a sharp scientific mind
and a healthy appetite for success.
For years, his sex life consisted of masturbating
to women's equestrian riding on Sunday afternoons.
(fanfare on TV)
But he finally found true love
when he met fellow PhD student Catherine O'Neal.
They devoted their careers to proving the ultimate power of nurture over nature
to finally answer the timeless question:
Could we have been anyone other than who we are?
- Maybe he needs some fluids, I don't know. What do you think? - Yeah.
They enjoyed the prestige of being university professors,
but were about to redefine their measure of success.
(man): For decades, my foundation has invested
in scientific endeavour of all kind.
And the one common thread I find with all scientists
is the fundamental belief that they can contribute
to the advancement of humankind.
A noble conviction.
But most of us, myself included, make very safe choices.
Yet aren't we always inspired by the rebels?
The ones who lay it all on the line?
The ones throughout history who dared to believe that the earth wasn't flat.
The Darwins, the Einsteins who were considered crazy
we now know to be visionaries.
These minds only come around every couple of generations,
so it's important for all scientists to believe
that they possess the ability to be one of the greats.
To be one of the rebels.
As scientists, it is your duty to teach us to see the world a different way,
and to hopefully make our world a better place.
And so, if you feel that you're one of those revolutionary minds
that can think outside the box,
I am standing in front of you today
to ask you to think outside of that box too.
Thank you.
(narrator): Randolph P. Gertz III
was the great-grandson of Archibald Gertz,
who built an empire exporting linen from Belfast in the 19th century.
Despite a strict Catholic upbringing by his mother,
Gertz was lured by the family fortune
and enjoyed every penny of it.
After his father's death,
Gertz challenged himself to take charge of his life
and created the Gertz Foundation for the Sciences.
After years of... debatable success,
he remained determined to prove to the world
he wasn't a papa's boy.
- Are they here?
(softly): Yes.
- I think we might have ourselves a winner.
(clock chiming in the distance)
Thanks for coming. - Thanks for having us.
- You've met my personal assistant, Ms. Phyllis Tridek.
- We did. - I'll be right back.
- I gotta tell you, of all the proposals I read,
yours really knocked my socks off.
(Ben sighing with relief)
- Thank you. Thank you very much.
- Come. Let's hit the boudoir.
In 1920, at Johns Hopkins University,
a Professor named John Watson wanted to prove
that all emotions and behaviours are learned.
So he had a baby, known as Little Albert,
play with a white rat, which the kid loved.
But Watson started making a loud noise
every time the kid touched the rat, and, eventually,
the baby became afraid of the rat,
even when he didn't make the noise.
- Watson successfully taught the child to fear rats.
Conditioning 101. (Gertz): Hmm.
- Essentially, uh, well,
Pavlov and the dog. (Gertz): Hmm.
- With your help, we believe
we could actually prove this on a much larger scale.
And unlike Watson, we'd foster positive behaviours, not fear.
- Our idea is very simple:
We want to raise our soon-to-be-born child,
and two other kids, contrarily to their genetics.
- Yeah, so... so with your support,
we would very much like to adopt Maya.
She's just been put up for adoption
and comes from a long line of dim-witted individuals.
- Hmm. - Her parents were... simple people.
- Hmm. - Very simple.
- Idiots? - Yes. Idiots.
But we would nurture the smartest little girl you've ever seen.
- Oh, she'll be smart as a whip. - Ka-tch!
- And obviously, with your generous support, we would adopt,
uh... Maurice.
Now, his ancestors were, uh...
angry, aggressive... and in some cases--
- Violent.
- Pretty violent, actually. - Yeah.
- But we would... we'd raise him to be a pacifist.
- Like Gandhi? - Yeah, like the Mahatma.
- Hmm. - And as you can see,
Catherine is very pregnant. - I should pop any day, really.
- And we would raise our son to be... an artist.
- So the son of two scientists is gonna be raised as an artist.
- Bingo.
- Thus proving the power of nurture.
- Double bingo.
- And you have no ethical concerns about this?
- No. Why should we?
I mean, it's no different to most parents who, you know,
encourage their kids to play piano or be doctors or super athletes.
- Yeah. - And at the end of the day,
what matters most is how much you love your kids, right?
And we're gonna give our kids every ounce of love we got.
- And... and more importantly, we will prove
that everyone has the potential to become anything.
- Any... I mean, anything. - No one... Yeah.
No one is a prisoner of their genetic heritage. No way.
- And you believe you can pull this off?
- Indubitably. - Absolutely.
- Well, if that's the case...
...let's start changing the world.
(Catherine sighing with relief) - Well, thank you so much.

Ben and Catherine quit the university
and moved to a cottage Ben inherited from his father, Henry,
who had inherited it from his father before him.

to stimulate their neurological pathways and cerebral juices.
- Dad, why is Luke such a fart face?
- Hey. Maurice, that's not nice. And for the last time, put your PJs on, please.

- We're not looking for "pretty positive," Catherine.
I tell you all the time, so I'll tell you again:
Now, these results need to be rock-hard solid.

- I think he's playing Lincoln. - The following story may sound unbelievable,
but I assure you that every word of it is true.
My name is Bobby and I've lived on a farm my whole life.
(chuckling)
I inherited the farm from my daddy,
who inherited it from his daddy before him.
I'm what Cal Smith would call a real country bumpkin.
(Country Bumpkin playing) (whispering): Country bumpkin?
- Living on a farm is hard work and I love every minute of it.
But it can be lonely. Really lonely.
- I'm so lonely.
- The long days make it practically impossible
for a guy like me to meet any women.
But all that changed last week when I noticed a car just farther up the road.
The hood was popped open and the sweetest little ass I have ever seen
was bent over checking out the engine.
Her name was Kitty Kat.
- I'm Kitty, but you can call me Kitty Kat.
(Ben): Hmm. - I stared at her long and hard.
Flowing blond hair and her hard breasts
bursting out of her snug white T.
- Excuse me? - Shhh.
- The moment was electric. We barely spoke,
and before I knew it, I was rubbing up against her backside.
- Okay, okay, show's over.
- My johnson was purring like a V8.
Within minutes I was balls-deep inside her.
- Okay, yeah... - I said enough. What is this?
Who wrote this? Where'd you get it?
- Uh, from the book. Uh, Penthouse Magazine.
- I need some air. - It's not...
Luke, I'm-I'm disappointed in you.
I mean, you should really, really let your characters speak for themselves.
The use of a narrator, it's weak dramaturgy.
It really is. Okay.
Lock it up.
Catherine? Sweetie? Confirm your status,
or I'll be forced to break down this door.
- Leave me alone. - Oh, come on, let me in, please. Cath.
(Catherine sighing) You okay?
- Our kids just put on a play based on pornographic material.
I'm as far from okay as one can be and I have a fucking migraine.
- I just asked Samsonov to lock up his skin mags, so...
- Good work, Columbo. Problem solved.
- Catherine, you're gonna start driving yourself crazy with this.
You're just having a mild panic attack.
Okay? Go for a run. Do something.
(scoffing) - You just don't get it, do you?
- I know you're upset. - You're damn right I'm upset.
- I'm sorry. I will lock everything up.
My private collection will soon be like Fort Knox.
- That's great. How do you want to handle this?
- What you want me to do?
- I want you to care that Maurice wants to be "ball-deep" into Maya!
- Oh, come on, it's a play. Fictional characters.
They probably don't even know what "ball-deep" means.
(laughing): Oh, yes, they do! - Big deal.
Our son just directed his first play.
These... are rock-hard-solid results.
- I don't care about...! Fuck Gertz!
I want to get an outside opinion.
- About what? - Well, I want to know if...
fake-humping your sister onstage in front of your parents
is part of the normal sexual development of a child.
(chuckling) - Of course it is.
- You think this is funny? - No?
- What if it's deviant sexual development?
And what about the whole canoe ass-slapping incident?
What if it all adds up to, uh...
dissociative behaviour?
- Deviant sexual development? (indistinct conversation)
(whispering): We need to focus on what's important here.
Gertz is right.
We need results.
Oh, honey pie, we're so close.
- No... What are you doing?
- I am reassuring you. - Mom?
Maurice put this on my bed. - Oh my G... Just get rid of it.
- Can I put it on his bed? - No! Just get rid of it!
And put on some decent clothing while you're at it!
- Mom's right. Just get rid of it, honey. - God!
- Catherine, Catherine, Catherine, Catherine, just let it all go.
- Don't say my name repeatedly. It's condescending.
- Okay.
- I just want someone who can tell me my kids are okay.
(Maya): Mom? Dad?
(gurgling)
- You tried to flush it? - Why not?
- Oh, come on, you're smarter than that.
- Clearly not.
(Catherine sighing)
- We need help.
Okay, I want Julie.
- Never.
- Why not?
- Ne-ver.
(Iron Maiden's The Number of the Beast blasting)
(relieved groaning)
(cracking)
(narrator): Dr. Julie Bouchard was a child psychiatrist
and an old friend of Catherine's
whom she had not seen in over a decade.
- Hey! (screaming laughter)
- Ben despised Julie.
(excited chatter) - I'm so happy to see you!
He considered her a mediocre scientist at best,
and attributed her academic success
to her sculpted cheekbones.
- Hi, Ben. - Hey, Julie.
- Looking good.
- Yeah. (laughter)
- How's the, uh... how's the old campus?
- I'm running three labs now. - Wow!
- Published four times last year.
Yeah, life's good, life's good. - My God! That's amazing! Congratulations!
- How about you guys? How's country living?
- Yeah. Life is... it's, uh... it's very good.
It's pretty sweet. - Great.
Julie, thank you so much for, you know, coming all this way. Long trip.
Uh... but, uh, to be honest, I think that my wife -
my lovely wife - may have overreacted.
A little bit. A smidge. And the kids are fine,
they're really fine, really great.
They're fucking awesome. - Ben, please.
- We cool here? - We cool.
- Cool.
- I... Okay, so I thought I'd take them out,
see how they operate on their own.
- Sounds good to me. - We should stick around here. We usually take them out.
- Don't worry, Ben. We'll be back by suppertime. Where are the kids?!
- Yeah.
- Hi! - Hi.
Sammy.
(Catherine): Luke! Guys?!
- "Luke! Guys!"
- It's always Luke and the two others. - Oh, shut up.
- I got a surprise! Come on!
- Coming! What the hell is wrong with her?
- Come on, Luke, run like a good little dog to Mommy.
- Asshole. That is what you are.

they were perfectly at ease in this social environment.
They weren't intimidated.
They socialized.

I've seen them steal, drink,
lie, beat up their parents, beat up each other,
beat themselves up, touching themselves...
touching each other,

- 19th-century biologist.
- Potentially the greatest field biologist of his time.
Like Darwin, he proposed a theory of evolution.
Yet nobody's ever heard of him.
A man completely forgotten by history.
Why do you think that is?
Because Darwin published first.
He simply wanted it more.
He was more determined.
- What is this?
- Two Portuguese scientists are conducting the same experiment as you guys.
They've got two pair of twins, and they're nurturing them
on intelligence, creativity, aggression,
and sexual orientation.
So you see, there's no point in being Alfred fucking Wallace.
Just watch.
(indistinct chatter)
Aggression.
(both grunting)
Sexual orientation.
- Damn those Portuguese. Every time.
- But... this is medieval.
It has nothing to do with what we're doing here.
- You're missing the point. - Well, you may like
these short-term results of these Portuguese guys,
but that's exactly what they are: short-term.
In 10 years' time, these kids are gonna be whacked.
- Whacked? - Yeah! You can't raise kids like caged animals.
We have brought up our kids as normally as possible given the circumstances,
and I'm only hoping now that they'll be okay.
- Catherine, you're not listening to me.
We are way past the point of discussion here.

- Can you calm her down? Is there a switch? - No.

- Nobody cares about the second man on the moon, Catherine!
We need to be the first.
- Well, not like this. - If that's your attitude,
maybe you're not ready to finish this job.

- What do you mean, you want the kids?
- If you don't have the humility to learn from your Portuguese counterparts,
I'm gonna ask Phyllis here to take care of them for the final sprint.

It's a win-win!

- That's it. (under her breath): Shit!
- Let it all out! Like the rivers of Babylon!
- Take off! Take off! Quick!
- What are you doing?! - Oh, my God!
That goddamn cavewoman... just stuck an axe in my chopper!
(Maya gasping) - Okay.
- What was that?! You need to calm down. - Don't even.
- What was to be gained by threatening to take away their children?!
- Oh, put a sock in it, Phyllis!
- Sweetie... honey...
- Your behaviour was only disgraceful!
- You're a personal assistant! This is above your pay scale, don't you think?
- Calm down.
- I love you guys.
- Catherine?
Okay...
(soft music)
- Hey there.
- Nuts?
Tough day, huh?
(scoffing)
Do you want me to leave?
- Mm. No, stay.
- Want to talk about Gertz?
Want to talk about the kids?
Want to talk about my...
stunning Olympic career?
(chuckling)
You know, it was my great-grandfather who taught me how to... shoot.
- Oh. - I didn't tell you, eh?
Yes, he was born in Greece and he moved to Estonia,
and he had a farm and I shot all sorts of things:
rocks or, you know, wood. Not animals, you know,
unless we were going to eat them. But--
- Let's just, uh...
- What?
- Let's just not talk.
Is that okay? - Okay.
(chatter on TV)
(snoring)
- Ahem.
(whispering): Good night, Mom.
(snoring)
(beeping)
- Okay, ready?
- Yeah, I just have one question.
- Sure.
- Um. Do you think I'm more like you or like Mom?
- That's a big question.
That's a good question.
Uh... I mean...
Hang on. (beep) Okay.
Here's the thing, Luke.
Um...
Your play, Kitty Kat.
Borderline inappropriate, but you're an artist, Luke,
and what I got from it was you are at an age
where there's - pfft -
a lot of stuff stirring up inside you,
a lot of energy, a lot of sexual energy,
and, boy... (whistling)
...that's a powerful force. A force...
...that you can learn to use to your own advantage.
Pay attention, son.
Uh, yeah, uh...
this is...
was known, often, uh...
often called...
erotic art.
Ready? Ahem.
- Yeah, uh, I, um, I really don't want to do this.
- I know, I know, but I want you to do is,
I want you to summon up that energy.
I want you to harness that energy,
I want you to channel that force,
that sexual force inside you.
And I want you to just, you know, release it into dance.
- Y-you want me to dance my sexual emotion?
- Exactly. I want you to just, you know, dance your sexual emotions.
- Ahem. With you?
- No... I mean... No, no. No.
But I've seen you dance... man.

It was such a great release for me.
I was just living it up. I mean, God!
Oh, what a crazy time.
And now, it's...
Well, it's different.

I mean, he would hate it if I told you this, he would kill me, but, uh...
...he likes me to dress up as a thoroughbred.
I put on this little tail and it's really...
it's very silly, and I just want to be 18 again.
(sobbing): I want to be free like that falcon.
Am I making any sense?
- Can you take some time off work?
- Uh, maybe.
- A woman in your state shouldn't be working.
You need to disconnect.
If I had a tranquilizer gun, I'd shoot you with it right now,

I'm gonna prescribe these...

- How's your mother? (Luke): The diagnosis is vague.
(Maurice): Dad, where is all the food?
(Maya): Where's the TV?
- It's gone! (Maya): Gone where?!
- Where's my wife?
- She went to bed.
She needs her rest.
(under his breath): Commie sonofabitch.
(Maya): Dad, seriously, where's the TV?
- What happened? Hmm? What did the doctor say?
(softly): He said I needed to take a break.
- Okay, well, um... uh...
- Actually, I think we could all use a break.
- Hmm? - A real break,
like... like a trip.
You know? We could...
pack up the car and go somewhere.
- It's just not the right time.

Ben felt he had lost.
But failure was not an option.
- This is good. Thank you.
- Under no circumstances
would he yield to the Portuguese.
- Guys. Please. Eat up.
- Is there anything else?
- Legumes offer unparalleled nutrition.
That's something we could all use right now.

- Ah.

- What do you mean?
- Well, won't it look strange to have a pause at such a crucial time?
Scientifically speaking?
If I may,
I really don't think this is the time
to be taking a pause.

I'm done.
I'm, uh...
Yeah, I'm-I'm telling the kids.

I'm just... I'm gonna tell them everything.

- So what the bejesus happened?
- They, uh, they caused a 19-car pileup on the 141.
- Hmm. - Wow. - Not a scratch on them,
but Social Services got a court order, so...
- So... now we can't see the kids.
- Bloody fascists.
Now, I believe this incident falls under the...
blowing-up-in-your-face clause.
Which is...
paragraph 36-B.
Since there's been a breach in the contract,
that means that you're obligated to refund -
according to my astute accountants -
a little over $1.4 million.
- Hold on here. W-we had our knees cut
as we were crossing the finish line.
We had... this. We had this in the bag.
- Well, now you're holding an empty bag.
And I won't lie to you.
The timing of this incident could not be better.
- We lost our kids. You get that, right? Does he...? He gets that, right?
- Oh, I do. That's why I'm willing to deal here.
To be frank, I haven't been... perfectly forthcoming with you.
- What do you mean?
- I'm so sorry. - Zip it, Phyllis.
- No, what? - I swear,
I had no idea of the extent of the deception until recently.
- I said zip it, Phyllis.
- What deception? - You see, throughout history,
scientists have used humans and animals as guinea pigs.
So where do you draw the line between protecting dignity and promoting progress?
- I don't understand, I...
- Well, in this case, science is a guinea pig.
You're the guinea pigs.
My guinea pigs.
- What do you mean? - Yeah.
- Well... while you were experimenting on your kids, I was experimenting on you.
- How?!
- Well, the working title for my book is: The Rationalizing
of Unethical Behaviour for the So-Called Greater Good.
My... my editor wants something with a bit more pizzazz.
- So, uh... (chuckling wryly)
What are you gonna write?
- Well, basically, that you've been using your kids
as lab rats. That's the basic premise.
- How dare you? - The hell do you... know?
What the hell can you, uh, even write about?
I-I... You know, I'm--
- Well... Samsonov kept a tight log...
...of every minute detail.
(Catherine exclaiming)
- And you! (sobbing): Our kids loved you.
- What about the, uh...
the, uh... Portuguese?
(laughing) - I made that up.
There were no Portuguese, Ben. I just did it to see
how far you were willing to go.
(silent chuckle)
- You... you cuntbag.
Don't you see how fucking unethical this is?
I mean, do you see the irony here?
- Can we remain professional here?
Now, I am willing to rip up your contract
and forget about the $1.4 million
if you sign this short but effective release form.
It's pretty straightforward. It basically says that I forget about your debt,
and in return, you have no say over what I publish.
- You've ruined everything!
- Come on. See it as turning over a new leaf.
It's a new day.
Tabula rasa.
Hmm.
(door opening)
- Hello. Hello, Ben.
Hello, Catherine.
How are you?
How are... the children?
(cracking) Ah! Ah!!!
Why?
(high-pitched screaming)
- Commie sonofabitch.
(crying): Why you do that... to me?
Why? Why the balls?
(narrator): Ben and Catherine exhausted every possible option,
both legal and illegal, to retrieve their children,
but failed time and time again.
- I see you're taking the, uh, canoe paddle.
- Hmm. Which is mine.
- Yeah, but you're living in the city now, so...
- I left you the spare.
And after 13 years of marriage,
they parted ways.
- Drive safe.
- Social Services helped place the children
at the Saint-Patrick Academy, a therapeutic boarding school
for kids coming from difficult circumstances.
Sequestered from their parents,
their integration was immediate and seamless.
Maya was a top-notch student...
- Push down. It melts the snow and reduces friction. - What?
- ...excelling in several disciplines.
- Just go.
(shrieking)
- But had little interest in her studies.
Maurice developed a keen interest in Asian philosophies
and volunteered his time as a referee
with the Saint-Patrick Boxing Bandits.
- Anger is poison. Always respect your opponent.
Fight fair. Carry on, boys.
- Luke joined a group of artists
known as The Saint-Patrick Four,
now rebranded the Saint-Patrick Five,
who were committed to publicly expressing their every instinct.
- Ladies and gentlemen, I now present to you:
The Uniboob.
- Luke felt The Uniboob was misunderstood
and channelled his energy into a passion project.

Gertz's publication was ranked 17th
on the National Bestseller list.
- "The doctors used their kids like a chef uses an egg,
as an ingredient for something greater.
The eggs were whipped and beaten for 12 excruciating years
in an attempt to make the ultimate omelet."

- Well, those are our kids. They're the guinea pigs.
- What guinea pigs?
- When is the last time you left the house?
- I don't know. Last, uh... Wednesday maybe.

we're looking for our kids.

- There's been a bereavement. Their grandmother. Horrible accident.
- Okay, well, I can't really release the kids without...
- We spoke to, uh... Phyllis. - Guys, uh, just... stay here...
- You're hurting my arm!
- Stop whining, son, and pick up the pace.
(teacher): Stop!
You need permission!
(quietly): Go, go, go, go, go!
- Is there a key for this? - I'll get the keys. - Alright.
- Hi!
Honey. Okay, look, the, uh...
that book is a gross exaggeration.
- It's a pack of lies. - Yep.
- Not all of it. - When did you plan on telling us the truth?
- I tried to.
- When? - The day you left.
- You said you were horny and needed some brew. - Something about the Dutch.
- What? No. I said this is all a mistake; I love you with all my heart.
- That's not what you said. - I remember exactly what your mother said.
She said, "We... we lied to you.
I'm sorry and I love you very much."
- Who cares, okay? You lied to us and used us for 13 years.
- It wasn't a lie. It didn't feel like a lie, did it?
- It does now. - Okay, look, look.
Yes, we...
...we made a mistake, okay? But we did it with love.
I mean, we-we-we always wanted the best for you. Always.
- Yes. - Everything was for you.
- No, it wasn't, okay? You're not us.
You don't know what it's like for us to have parents like you, okay? You don't.

I'm sorry, but we're gonna have to open the door.

(narrator): Gertz's injury resulted in a deviated septum
and, as you know, if you've ever had your septum deviated,
it can be a pretty painful ordeal.
(Gertz): Phyllis! Get back here! I'm sorry.
- After 51 years of loyal service to the Gertz family...
...I, too, decided to write a new chapter in my life.
Gertz pressed charges and Ben was convicted
of assault causing bodily harm.
- You're in, boy.
- Over here!
- Surprisingly, incarceration was a very positive experience for Ben.
- Oof!
- Good work, man. Let's go.
- Well, I've visited regularly enough
to know that Ben is a devoted father.
After only five weeks,
and thanks in part to my testimony,
Ben earned early release for good behaviour.
...respect instilled self-confidence...
- Upon the parole board determining
that it is in the best interest of the accused,
and not contrary to the public interest,
the board orders that the accused be granted a discharge
that is conditional to successfully completing
a period of probation of six months.
This proposed decision... - Over the years,
I became very fond of the Morin family.
Ben is good people.
- ...Section 84-32, subdivision...
- As spring unfolded,
Luke, Maurice and Maya
requested to see their parents.
- Ben.
- Hey. - Hey.
