Why doesn't Carl use the pill to either replace or take out Eddie?

Why doesn't Carl use the pill to either replace or take out Eddie? - Crop patient taking pill from table

Carl has a supply of the drug, so why does he need Eddie to run for president, instead of putting his own candidate (on pills) in the running? Alternatively, why doesn't he either use the pills himself or give them to one of his minions so that he can take out Eddie like he threatened.



Best Answer

Let me do the honors...

I think he was getting at that he controls Eddie's supply now (or so he thinks). For whatever reason, it doesn't seem like Carl himself takes the drug, most likely because he knew it would be addictive/kill him like his competitor. Little did he know that (supposedly) Eddie has the drug in his system naturally and permanently (and seemingly more potent). - @TylerShads

Is Eddie Morra off NZT?

Under duress, Morra told his former boss Van Loon that he biologically engineered a new strain of NZT that has a permanent fix. He shows this by telling him he was off NZT yet was able to mathematically 'predict' a collision in perfect detail.

Who stole Eddie NZT?

Gennady later catches Eddie and demands the money be paid back with interest immediately. He then discovers and ingests Eddie's NZT-48, after which he begins using Eddie as his source for the drug. Desperate for a pill after Gennady takes his last dose on hand, he asks Lindy to retrieve his stash from her apartment.
