Recap of Common Side Effects episode 8

Episode 8 begins with Marshall waking up in a morgue and being taken out by Amelia. Following this, Marshall goes to pick up Socrates from Frances' apartment and is met by her there.

Turns out, his fears are right as Reutical ends up shutting down the mushroom program.
