Cognito, Inc. wanted to sell lots of excess 1980s products so they tested this serum on a small town called Still Valley, Wyoming. Now, Cognito, Inc. regularly maintains the serum and making sure Still Valley is isolated from the world.
You accidentally get missed when the serum is being topped up. Cognito, Inc. workers are still in Still Valley. You have close friends in Still Valley, a loving family, and a stable job.
