Quote from Michael in The Trolley Problem
Eleanor: Michael, can we just go back to the classroom? Michael: We never left. Here, I'll show you. [Chidi breathes a sigh of relief as Michael snaps his fingers and they're transported back to to the classroom. Michael snaps again and sends them back to the trolley.] Eleanor: Look. See, buddy? None of this was real. Michael: Well, they're fake people, but their pain is real. Does that make sense? There have to be stakes, or it's just another thought experiment. Chidi: This is awful. Michael: You specifically asked me if there was a way I could connect with the material more. I'm trying, you guys.
