Forbidden Science

The memories of the late Stephanie White's past are haunting her clone, Julia. After the successful simulation of encoding and removing a person's memory with the Gold chip, Julia realizes that she can also use the same chip to erase her mind of Stephanie's memories. Bethany insists that the process be tested before Julia thinks about undergoing any kind of memory extraction. But when Julia has a chance meeting with an old lover, she is propelled to start a life with her own memories. Meanwhile Bethany's past creeps up on her as she starts to have recurring vivid nightmares of her ex-husband having sex with another woman. Adrian orders Colin to end his affair with Bethany. When Colin seems to resist, Adrian takes matters into his own hands.

The Gold Chip has passed all tests and is ready to be put on the market. But Adrian tells Colin that he has other plans for the valuable memory chip. Colin's ex-lover, Senator Joan Montgomery, tells him about career opportunities with 4Ever Innovations' competitor, Armstrong Industries. Meanwhile, Robert Armstrong has a disturbing meeting with Adrian. Later, when Colin agrees to a hush-hush meeting with Robert he gets the surprise of his life. It seems that everyone at 4Ever has a secret, and some of them are deadly.

Philip is determined to find out how the Gold Chip caused the death of a clone. Penny tries to distract Philip with a little sexy role-playing, but Philip is still determined to prove the Gold Chip couldn't have killed the clone. With the Gold Chip project shelved, Julia tells Bethany that she is going to resign from 4Ever. Bethany learns some interesting information from an unexpected source -- Senator Joan Montgomery. Colin's missing, and as Bethany searches for him, she is led back to her former home with Adrian. It is there that Bethany uncovers the startling secrets of 4Ever and the Level 6 project.
