Dr. Crandell: Miss Howe, may I ask you something?
Rebecca: Sure.
Dr. Crandell: I hope you won't take this the wrong way, but my field is human sexual dynamics. And just now I had the strangest impression - please, tell me if I'm wrong - that something happened when you and I were introduced. I sensed some spark, some flicker of response on your part. Very subtle, but unmistakable. Was I imagining that?
Rebecca: I think so.
Dr. Crandell: Well, my mistake. I'm sure you understand.
Rebecca: Of course.
Dr. Crandell: You- You- You are aware I wasn't being judgmental?
Rebecca: Of course.
Dr. Crandell: It's the response itself that interested me. Purely as a scientist. And you are quite sure that on some very basic level, you didn't experience an undeniable attraction?
Rebecca: Positive.
Dr. Crandell: Well, I'm glad we cleared that up.
