I searched online, and found this copy of the script...
http://www.godamongdirectors.com/scripts/TotalRecall.shtml

It makes no reference to the pill. The reference Ill assume that your 
referring to is when the Dr tells quaid that he's having a "schizophrenic
embolism", and he needs to take the pill or he will be "stuck in permanent 
psychosis."
This isnt a the same as take the red pill/blue pill... but it  is simular...

I forgot to mention a few newwer films based on PKD. Imposter and Minority 
Report. Very few of dicks books have become movies... the guy was a real 
tweek and wrote a lot of books (most around 200 pages). Some he wrote in one 
night (a  lot of coffee...) I think my personal favorite is UBIK, but its 
difficlut to pick just one...

Eh, that's it, I guess.  No 300 million dollar unveiling event for this
kernel, I'm afraid, but you're still supposed to think of this as the
"happening of the century" (at least until the next kernel comes along).
