Kinga, Max and others in “Mac and Me”

From now on, we're dumbing things down.

Yeah. Once people are dumb, they'll pay us to make them smart with our invention exchange, a new pharmaceutical we call, Algernon!

I don't know. Anything that has to do with messing with your brain chemistry can't be very safe.

Relax, ex-fiancé! No one can sue us if we mention all the terrible stuff our drug could do to you in the advertisement. Algernon...

Hi, I'm Synthia. As a clone I lacked basic intelligence, but that changed when I started taking Algernon.

Algernon...

Algernon is the only effective smartness drug on the market.

Grow your brain with Algernon, dumbasses!

[speaking rapidly] Side effects of Algernon include nausea, mouse friendship, and the 1969 Oscar for Best Actor. Algernon may kill you if taken when the sun is out or setting.

[rapidly speaking] Algernon should not be ingested even in jest. For more warnings, see our ad in Golf Magazine.

Algernon made me so smart, I realized it was dangerous, and I should stop taking it.

Algernon!
