History

2070

At some point, Rekall was involved in similar corporate practices done to acquire psychics which were made in irradiated parts of Europe. This involved them finding telepaths and other psychic mutations who were kidnapped in order to utilized for the company's own needs. (Episode: Machine Dreams) Early Rekall implants were also noted to be quite flawed in their functioning leading to neuro-surgeons being hired to remove the faulty devices from their users. (Episode: Brain Fever)

The company was involved in a secret expeimentation program done on Beta Class Androids with this project being done so by the scientist Karl Gish. This involved expanding the memory of the primitive androids giving them a heightened level of awareness that approached that of humans. However, once done, the awareness gained by the androids was only temporary and they began to return to their former existence which terrified the machines. Instead, they desired to keep this existence leading to the androids going rogue where they attempted to kidnap Gish. The initial attempt failed due to the intervention of the Citizens Protection Bureau who managed to save Gish. Afterwards, Richard Collector who was the head of corporate security got involved in the protection detail that saw Gish being taken to Mars for his safety. However, the androids once again struck where they managed to infiltrate the Rekall facility on Mars in order to force their memory upgrade to be permnant. Despite this plan, they were destroyed when Richard Collector terminated the machines as he sought to hide his company's involvement in this experiment. (Episode: Machine Dreams)

Afterwards, a new head of internal security was appointed in the form of Vincent Nagle who worked on a new operation with Barbara Raymond of Uber Braun. Her employers in Uber Braun were conducting a secret project titled Echelon to create a new advanced series of super Beta Class Androids. She intended to provide this corporate secrett to Rekall in exchange to be richly rewarded and she attempted to seduce the scientist involved who was Joseph Granger. However, Granger decided to betray Raymond and approach Rekall directly which led to his death during the secret meeting. Nagle later informed the CPB of the incident where officers managed to uncover Raymond's involvement in the murder. (Episode: Infiltration) Nagle was also involved in a secret project with Devin Lavern who was distributing black market Rekall experiences to the lower clases for cheap prices. However, the faulty nature of the equipment involved ultimately killed the users leading to the CPB uncovering Lavern who was killed in a hostage incident. (Episode: Nothing Like the Real Thing)

Rekall dispatched Brendan McGuire who was their top-ranking lawyers and sent to CPB to get Dr Felix Latham from custody. (Episode: Begotten Not Made)

Remake

In 2085, the United Federation of Britain suffered a tense relationship with the Colony. During this time, Chancellor Coopahagen sent chief intelligence operative Carl Hauser to eliminate the Resistance. However, Hauser joined the rebels but was captured where he was mentally reprogrammed to be Dennis Quaid. In this new persona, he entertained the idea of taking part in false memory experiences that were being advertised by Rekall. This eventually led him to one of their facilities where the Rekall programming broke the UFB blocks on Hauser's mind thus restoring many of his formerly lost skills whereupon he went on the run from government forces.
