Quote from Adam in Cocoon
Adam: Look, I just have some questions about this fitness powder. Is it safe? Dr. Katman: Uh, these are mostly natural ingredients. It won't hurt you, but it won't help, either. Adam: But my brother swears by this stuff, and he does seem to have even more unpleasant energy than usual. Dr. Katman: That's just the placebo effect. Adam: And that is... Dr. Katman: We studied this. Adam: And I learned it. But imagine a world where I didn't. Dr. Katman: The human brain becomes convinced that the powder works, so, in a way, it does. [chuckles] Adam: So someone could drink this garbage and feel energized, even though nothing is actually happening? Dr. Katman: Isn't the natural world amazing? Adam: This isn't gonna spark my interest in science, if that's what you're going for. Dr. Katman: I'll get ya one day. Adam: Don't count on it. Dr. Katman: At least take home the lava lamp. Adam: Oh, wow. When you make it yourself, it kinda stinks. Dr. Katman: Enjoy.
