There Edwards is recruited into the Men in Black, an ultra-secret organization that patrols alien immigrants on Earth and protects the safety of ordinary citizens by preventing them from ever finding out by using a memory neuralyzer to blank people's memories of anything they see. Edwards's identity is erased, he now known only as J, and he given a standard issue black suit and a pair of sunglasses that protect him from the neuralyzer.
