:06:03
You take this.
:06:06
You'll be back.
:06:09
So, tell me,
there was this woman

:06:11
I saw you having lunch
with the other day.

:06:14
Huh?
:06:15
She's just...
just somebody I work with.

:06:17
Uh-huh.
:06:18
Were there any
romantic possibilities?

:06:22
No.
:06:23
No?
:06:25
Why not?
:06:28
No, you see, I'm...
:06:29
She's, um,
she's not my type.

:06:31
Oh, she's not
your type.

:06:33
That was a lie.
:06:34
Except for the fact
that she had

:06:37
kind of a boyfriend,
:06:38
Diane was exactly my type.
:06:40
I'm a comparative
psychobiologist.

:06:43
I put, uh, primates...
:06:45
chimpanzees...
through tests.

:06:46
I note the behavior
of the subject,

:06:49
and I hope the results
are analogous to humans.

:06:51
Do you put electrical things
in their brains?

:06:54
No.
:06:55
No.
:06:56
But that's done,
isn't it?

:06:58
Yes.
:07:00
Why?
:07:01
You can measure
electrical activity,

:07:03
or, with a minute
amount of current,

:07:05
you can stimulate a feeling
or... or a thought.

:07:08
You can stimulate
a feeling?

:07:10
Yes.
:07:11
For example,
:07:12
there was
this experiment

:07:13
where an electrode
was planted

:07:15
in the pleasure center
of a monkey's brain.

:07:18
When the monkey
hit a button,

:07:21
it sent a signal
to the electrode,

:07:24
in effect exciting
the monkey sexually.

:07:27
You're kidding.
:07:28
No.
:07:29
Can you guess
what happened?

:07:31
Was it a male monkey?
:07:32
Yes.
:07:34
He slammed the button
till he died.

:07:36
Oh, so, you know
this experiment.

:07:39
I know men, honey.
:07:42
Oh, stop.
:07:45
I think she is definitely
Paul's type.

:07:49
She's got that,
uh...

:07:50
je ne sais quoi,
:07:52
that, uh...
:07:53
Very sexy girl.
:07:55
You should go
talk to her.

:07:57
Really.
:07:58
You should do it.
