I’ve definitely had terrible jobs like that (including participating in scientific research studies). And yeah, for only one reason: the money was good.

You may have guessed by this point that Val was actually Picknar the Tithoron, and who will now be referred to as such even though Picknar is in Val’s body. The same is true for Thoos, who is in Audri’s body. Picknar turned to Thoos and said, “Thoos, is that you in there? This is Picknar.” Thoos threw their arms in the air and yelled, “yes! I don’t believe this. It’s an outrage!” Disheartened, Picknar said, “yeah, how awful that they put us in the wrong bodies.” Angrily annoyed, Thoos replied, “no, I mean, we’re totally not going to get paid for participating.” Picknar leaned in further towards Thoos and said, “I think we should ask for help. Since these two saved us, I think our odds are as good with them as with anyone.” Thoos nodded in reply. Picknar turned to Knox and Rodrigo and said, “listen. I know this is going to sound crazy, but we’re not from your planet. We were part of a brain-trading experiment-” Thoos interrupted Picknar at this point by saying, “-which went horribly wrong!” Picking calmly said to Thoos, “or they lied to us and it went horribly right.” Deflated, Thoos acknowledges, “surely they… it… well crud. Maybe.” And then Thoos began yelling again, “why would anyone work a ‘job’ if this is the kind of thing which happens!” Knox knowingly asked Picknar, “the money was good?” Picknar knowingly replied back, “the money was good.”
