:19:00
Lesbian. Ball-buster.
Airhead. Leech.
:19:03
Whichever one of these disgusts
you the most, take your pick.
:19:05
- Well...
- Please pass the word.
:19:07
I am not here to date. I am not
here to flirt. I'm here to study.
:19:13
Thank you.
:19:15
I thought only I could repel women
with that kind of raw efficiency.
:19:18
Well, you just met your match.
:19:21
- Patch Adams.
- Truman Schiff.
:19:23
Nice to meet you, Truman.
:19:25
Will you go out with me?
:19:31
May I ask you one question?
:19:34
- Do you buy everything
the dean was saying today?
- What do you mean?
:19:37
I mean, that whole
drill sergeant thing.
:19:39
"We're gon' make doctors
out of you medical scum.
:19:43
- Now drop down and give me 20".
- Mm-hmm.
:19:45
That whole marine thing.
:19:47
We're not even gonna see
a patient until the third year.
:19:49
Up until then,
it's just memorizing facts.
:19:51
- Why don't they just shove the book up...
- Hamburger?
:19:53
Right here on the colon. That's where
it's going anyway. Thanks very much.
:19:57
- So, why do you wanna be a doctor?
- I want to help.
:20:00
I want to connect with people.
A doctor interacts with people
at their most vulnerable.
:20:04
He offers treatment,
but he also offers counsel and hope.
:20:07
That's why I love the idea
of being a doctor.
:20:09
I've always been fascinated by
the development of the human mind.
:20:12
Ah. Pumping neurons.
:20:14
We start out so open
and spontaneous.
:20:17
We're real individuals. Then somewhere
along the way we're drawn to conform.
:20:20
- It's as if we're conditioned
by programmed responses.
- Well, that's true.
:20:23
But sometimes you can alter
the programmed response...
:20:26
just by changing some of the conditions,
altering the parameters.
:20:30
Let me show you.
:20:33
We'll call it
the "hello" experiment.
:20:35
The goal will be to break through
programmed response...
:20:38
by changing normal parameters...
:20:40
and getting a new emotional response
from the person.
:20:41
Ready to enter data.
:20:45
Hello.
:20:47
Hi.
:20:53
Wait.
I don't get it.
:20:55
"Hi" is a programmed response.
:20:57
- I reached her.
- You scared her.
:20:59
No. Wait.
Wait for it.
