You can live through this 1 more time. Or you will die… unless you find more bandages./Take one pill, and you’re (usually) relieved of your headache. Take the whole bottle…And You’ll move faster, be healthier, and have improved night vision, for about 5 minutes, then you’ll return to your previous state, and not suffer any side effects.
