"The Messages Are Real"
Three university students have known each other since high school. They enroll in an independent study in psychopathology, overseen by Professor Adam Whitney. They each get a different assignment about which they are not allowed to tell each other. Miles (James Duval) builds surveillance equipment, Noah (Nathan Bexton) looks at terrifying problem cases, and Dale (Denny Kirkwood) monitors Miles and Noah. Noah inevitably loses his sanity and he doesn't seem to be the first. A previous group of Whitney students also had problems and it seems that Whitney's goal is not to study the human mind, but to try to control it.
