Trust Fall

Summary

Ethan, a promising researcher at the pharmaceutical company Neurix, is kidnapped by a group of mysterious gangsters on his way home from work. Dragged away without knowing why, he comes face-to-face with the gang’s boss, Ramon, who demands only one thing: that Ethan manufacture “Exedrin,” the powerful drug he had been developing. In an instant, Ethan is reduced to the gang’s drug maker. Seizing an opportunity, he attempts to escape—only to find himself staring down the barrel of a gun. Just as the trigger is about to be pulled, a mysterious stranger appears out of nowhere and saves him— “So you’re the one who made Exedrin?”
