It always meant "hallucinate", that's why it was funny.

No, because that scene from Red Dwarf beat everyone to the punch.
I love Red Dwarf sooo much but I believe that was from the episode Back to Earth from 2008 and was parodying Blade Runner from 1982 as well as CSI from 2000.
Damn, I always remember this as red dwarf. Now I need to rewatch its been 10 years.
Edit: oof I am old, its been like 20.
Now I want to see someone recreate this scene with one of the hallucination machines.
