Midnight Last Call: Everything for the Greater Good

Chapter 2 : Dr. Wantz

Season 1, Ep. 2

In Chapter 2, we explore Dr. Walter Wantz's groundbreaking research on happiness as a societal effect. Despite initial skepticism, Dr. Wantz discovered that the fear of death can significantly impact happiness. Through a study called the Lauriana, he gave a test group placebo pills, leading them to believe they were poisonous and had only 12 hours to live. Surprisingly, these individuals experienced a transformation, becoming kinder, more loving, and living each moment to the fullest. Subsequent studies consistently supported these findings, and Dr. Wantz even established a foundation to challenge his own theory. However, the results continued to affirm his initial conclusions, leaving him with a final revelation on a fateful night.
