What is...the Service? It looks like something out of a Philip K.Dick science-fiction novel. "In Ganymede Alpha-B2, the men await, their brain ready. The Chair of Power remains empty. The population awaits The Man, whose brain can "do things", whose mind can deliver...The Service. Will Roger Fizzle be The Man?"

“Deliver the service” must be a metaphor for either sex or pooping.
