Memory Inhibitor

"We call it the Memory Inhibitor."

- Aloysius Samberly

The Memory Inhibitor is a device that erases a person's short-term memory.

History
Aloysius Samberly offered the Memory Inhibitor when Chief Daniel Sousa and Agent Peggy Carter asked for technology they could use on a mission. When he tried to demonstrate how it worked on Sousa, Sousa quickly refused. Samberly then told them that Jerry was used for testing, though he did not remember; Samberly warned not to use the device too often on a subject because of possible brain damage.

Carter later used the device several times on Hugh Jones, who had caught her sneaking around his office.

The Memory Inhibitor was used by Vernon Masters on Jack Thompson when he had caught him stealing the uranium rods for Whitney Frost.

Capabilites
"You place it like so. No. Well, you put it to the subject's temples. It disrupts the pathway of the prefrontal lobes. It makes them forget the last two minutes."

- Aloysius Samberly and Daniel Sousa

When placed on a person's temples, the Memory Inhibitor makes them forget the last two minutes by disrupting the pathway of the prefrontal lobes. If used too many times on the same person, it can cause brain damage.
