Limitless, based on the feature film, is a fast-paced drama about Brian
Finch, who discovers the brain-boosting power of the mysterious drug NZT
and is coerced by the FBI into using his extraordinary cognitive
abilities to solve complex cases for them. Working closely with Brian in
the major case squad in New York City is Special Agent Rebecca Harris, a
formidable investigator with a dark past, and Special Agent Boyle, a
former military officer and Rebecca’s confidante. They report to Special
Agent in Charge Nasreen “Naz” Pouran, a canny manipulator of the reins
of power. Unbeknownst to the FBI, Brian also has a clandestine
relationship with Senator Edward Mora, a presidential hopeful and
regular user of NZT who has plans of his own for his new protégé. Fueled
now with a steady supply of NZT that enables him to use 100% of his
brain capacity, Brian is more effective than all of the FBI agents
combined, making him a criminal’s worst nightmare and the greatest asset
the Bureau has ever possessed.
