Memories, my boy. Just a show we put on inside our heads.

What it means
Our interpretation.
Helmut describes memory as something the mind presents rather than a perfect copy of the past. The theatrical comparison leaves room for distortion, feeling and change. Within Psychonauts 2, it asks the listener to consider how an inner story shapes what they do next.
