- Kassandra: I'll collect the ingredients you need.
- Hippokrates: Thank you. It won't stop the pain entirely, but I hope it'll help him feel more comfortable.

Too Much of a Good Thing was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description
Pentheus' mind was at peace, but he still suffered in life. Hippokrates knew of a way to ease his pain, but too much could be fatal.
Dialogue
Hippokrates called Kassandra for her assistance.
- Hippokrates: If you have a moment, I would ask you to help me with something.
As Kassandra faced him, she briefly glanced back to the resting Pentheus.
- Kassandra: He seems to be resting peacefully now.
- Hippokrates: Yes, you helped ease his mind, but he'll never truly be at peace until he takes his last breath.
- Kassandra: When will that be?
- Hippokrates: It's hard to tell. Judging by his symptoms, it'll be sooner rather than later.
They paused on the depressing situation.
- Hippokrates: I can lessen his pain, but to do so, I'll need some hemlock.
- Kassandra: I don't have time for this right now.
- Hippokrates: I still need hemlock for the pain if you're able.
- Kassandra: He doesn't want to feel better. He wants to die with some dignity.
- Hippokrates: True dignity would be fighting through this so I can analyze his symptoms further.
- Kassandra: He wants to die and he's in pain. You should respect his right to choose instead of treating him like an experiment. What you're doing is wrong.
- Hippokrates: I will not be lectured on the morality of my work by a sell-sword. I have a responsibility, like all healers, to use my knowledge for the betterment of others.
- Kassandra: I can't imagine how difficult this must be, but I know you're doing what you can to help him.
- Hippokrates: Sometimes I worry that it's never enough. First the plague, and now this. The ailments that afflict man are as varied as the gods. It would take me many lifetimes to learn about them all.
(If players asked "Where is the hemlock?")
- Kassandra: Hemlock is rare. Where do you harvest it?"
- Hippokrates: It grows all across Boeotia, but check near the Tumulus of Plataia. I'm sure I saw some when I was last there.
(If players asked "Why hemlock?")
- Kassandra: Why are you treating him with poison? Hemlock is deadly.
- Hippokrates: Only in the wrong dosage. If my observations are correct, it should lessen the pain wracking his body.
(Leave – "I'll go now.")
- Kassandra: I'll get the hemlock you need.
