Moderator: [on TV] You've made many excellent points, Dr. Sternin. How do you respond to them, Dr. Crane? [Frasier is silent] Dr. Crane?
Frasier: Oh, excu- What was the question? Oh, uh, yes, of course. Excuse me, uh... Yes, my method of flooding, uh, seeks out the patient's, well, most sensitive and vulnerable spot in the defense system, and, uh... penetrates... probing deeper and deeper into the patient's psyche, thrusting over and over. And thereby uncovering the reality behind the irrational fear.
Moderator: Thank you, Dr. Crane. Anything to add, Dr. Sternin?
Lilith: Yes. Uh... [clears throat] Although Dr. Crane's method is faster, a slow and methodical approach can be much more rewarding. Gentle stroking of the psyche will bring about a far more intense release of emotion building until the patient quite often will literally cry out in a release of satisfaction and joy.
Frasier: [gasping] Point well taken.
