Right, here's the thing - I need a nerd. A geek. A smart guy. Or girl, whatever. I ain't overly picky.

[He shrugs his shoulders, casual as anything, taking a long sip of his beer. Sara may have told him this was not the best method to catch himself a genius but given the chance of there being some hanging around this joint, he thinks it's the perfect way. When in doubt, post an ad.]

This guy I know got brainwashed into being the king of dicks and I'm getting kind of sick of his shit so I need someone who'd be able to do some sci-fi sciencey stuff on his head. I have a vague idea how to do it but I just can't remember the details. [He's pretty much forgotten how they originally did it back home but he can unhelpfully offer vague information and a beer while you work. A+ service.]

All the 'smart' ones I know are annoyingly the biggest idiots around, I'm looking for someone less inclined to be stupid as hell. Help me out and maybe I'll help you out. Though my skills are limited to burning and breaking stuff.

[At least he knows his strengths? If you want a bonfire, ka-ching.]

I know a good looking chick if that sweetens the deal. Ain't saying she's gonna touch you but you can admire from afar. Really far. I also know some easy dudes if that's your thing. [Hey, whatever fixes this mess.]

I'm familiar with the details, Mister Rory. Though the technology required isn't present.

[...Wait. He knows that voice. What the fuck?]

Gideon? How did you get on my phone thingy? [He starts poking buttons.] Did I press something.

[catchacold]

Easy dudes, eh?

[boilover]

Not you.

You ain't easy. You're the hardest. You're the mount Everest of guys. I'd never offer you to anyone ever.

Mick!

[ one syllable fyi ]

[boilover]

What? You got a better idea?

Nerds are usually hard up, this seems like a smart move.

[improbablyhandsome]

[ Squints...] Are you trying to pimp us out?

[boilover]

For the good of mankind, sure. [Shrugs. Come at him, bro.]

Send me a shirtless picture, I already got one of Haircut. Might need 'em.

[deathlessness]

[Freya has been hitting dead ends with her current magical problem and is starting to get a smidge frustrated, but this seems like an ... interesting enough distraction and something that she could certainly solve if she knew more.]

Does it need to be science, or are you open to using magic?

video

[boilover]

Dunno enough about magic to say either way but if you think you could unbrainwash someone, I ain't gonna protest.

[Also he doesn't get how the science worked in the first place so honestly, magic works about the same as science in his mind. They seem pretty interchangeable. He'd just never tell the nerds that.]

[psio]

[This sounds dubious but then Haru knows she doesn't fit nerd criteria enough to judge.

Much.]

Umm... Is messing with someone's head really a good idea?

video

[boilover]

Probably not. Hence why I want a nerd to do it and not me. If I did it, then it'd be a really bad idea.

[He's not exactly qualified to do anything in anyone's brain. Especially not given how many beers he's already had today.]

It's like anything in life. If you know how to do it, why would it go wrong?

[mucked]

[ now here's a funny little predicament she's been watching from the sidelines. ]

You've got some notions of how this little knot concerning Captain Hunter can be untangled?

[ preferably without the 'burning and the breaking stuff,' she supposes. although peggy's never been much opposed to those solutions either. either way, she's curious. ]

[boilover]

We undo what the legion of doom did to his head and make sure not to render him brain dead. That's my main plan so far.

[It's vague and entirely unhelpful but trust him, he can make this work. Somehow. With Leonard being dragged along by his side, there's nothing he can't blag his way through.]

I got an idea. Kinda.

voice.

[crisised]

Seriously? You're offering up eye candy in exchange for help with Rip?

video

[boilover]

What else am I gonna offer?

Nerds are usually a bunch of horny virgins, seemed like a good idea.

VIDEO.

[accelerate]

[ all barry heard was "stupid as hell." he's in. ]

What's going on?

video

[boilover]

Rip is evil, he got brainwashed by that dick Eobard and now he keeps shooting all the people I know and trying to kill them.

Kind of need a nerd to fix it. [He gives Barry a look.] Are you a nerd or just a useless geek?

[Audio]

[theothermrgray]

Are you sure the brainwashing was entirely done with technology? Simple persuasion and influence can do a lot of damage on its own.

[He should know.]

video

[boilover]

Nah, this was like literally reprogramming his brain in a techy way, not a mental breakdown way. Or so I'm told anyway.

I'm no stranger to this kind of stuff but I don't think it was done the traditional way.

[video]

[punful]

[He's not going to address whether or not he counts as a nerd or a smart guy. He's mostly just here because this sounds weird, even for Wonderland.]

brainwashed how? guessin' you don't mean from an event?

video

[boilover]

Nah, they ain't a zombie, they're just a dick.

[A zombie he'd prefer.] It happened outside of here and now he's come back to Wonderland all brainwashed and murdery.

(Video)

[cieled]

Indeed? (He considers himself sharp-witted and intelligent, but the rest of what is said makes his head hurt.) You do not state your case appealingly, I must say. Nor do I know what you mean when you say "sci-fi" or "sciencey".

Furthermore, are you offering prostitution in exchange? (What even. Have some class, man!)

video

[boilover]

I still got bites. [People were interested because in a place Wonderland, there was little else to do and few ways to prove your genius.] Sci-fi stuff is like, you know, aliens and technology and stuff. Someone reprogrammed his head like a computer.

[There's beats.] Well, not whoring them out, just saying they're easy. And I can point them their way. Though you might be a little too young for anyone.

[mulletrock]

Wait, so this guy already had his melon balled and your answer is doing it again?

[Dean's been on his side of mental mind-wash too many times to count but he never resorted to that. He has to remind himself that not everybody has access to the god squad or hoodoo. Not that he'd really recommend either.]

[boilover]

Well, undo it by doing it again, I guess. You gotta undo shit like being brainwashed unless you can fight it and I don't think Rip can.

[Mick shrugs. Personally, he fought off his own brainwashing but no shock here that the wussy brit can't pull it off. Not enough freedom.] We ain't got many other options. Except murder.

[taer]

[ s i g h s ]

Just which good looking chick are you talking about?

[boilover]

I dunno. Which chick do you think?

You've got pretty good tastes, hazard a guess.
