Exterior views of the Sandoz Laboratory buildings in Basel, Switzerland where doctor Albert Hofmann believed that they had discovered and found a psychedelic drug and the discovery was LSD. Retired Chief Psychologist for CIA, John Gittinger, talks about the powerful drug and is being interviewed publicly. CIA's interest in LSD was intense but they were worried that the Russians would get hold of it. Commentator notes that mistaken intelligence reported that Sandoz Laboratory was going to put 100 million doses of LSD on the open market. Concerned, the United States was prepared to buy the entire supply. However, through information learned from Freedom of Information Act filings, John Marks, author of The Search for the Manchurian Candidate, tells the interviewer that this was mistaken information caused by a mixup when an American military attache confused milligrams versus kilograms, so there were in fact only 100 doses on the market. Brief footage of CIA chemist, Dr. Sydney Gottlieb.
In 1964, Professor Jose M.R. Delgado, of Yale University's School of Medicine, invented a device he called a stimoceiver. It was a chip that could alter the brain’s electrical impulses via radio signal. In tests sponsored by the U.S. Office of Naval Research, he implanted the device in the brain of a bull. This film opens shows that experiment and its results. A man in Cordova, Spain, opens a bull ring door to allow a fighting bull to enter. It charges a man holding a cape. Another man fires a dart to sedate the bull. Several men plant electrodes for a stimoceiver in the bull's brain. Next, the bull charges a man holding a cape, but pulls up short before hurting him. The bull chases the cape but never attacks the man as the man uses remote control to influence the animal's behavior. The bull charges around in a circle.

Narrator states that White wrote to Dr. Gottlieb summing up his career saying, "it was fun fun fun, and where else could a red-blooded American boy lie, kill, and cheat, steal, deceive, rape, and pillage, with the sanction and blessing of the All Highest." Narrator strolls on lawn near the U.S. Capitol building and says it appears doubtful that mind control has been achieved. But work, that we don't know very much about, is continuing in this field. He asks how deeply are the Russians and other dictatorships into this. He notes that the CIA is reluctant to give information about it (such as Project MKUltra) and he questions where such a program fits in a democracy. He notes that one person working on these projects told him there are capable, conscientious, and very capable scientists working for our country, and "their work speaks for itself."
