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.
:21:04
Oh, you're nuts.
:21:06
A smile.
:21:08
Ten seconds.
Victory.
:21:11
There's more.
Come, my friend.
:21:15
- Howdy!
- Hi.
:21:17
See?
Response time is diminishing.
:21:19
Yesterday I made
12 random phone calls.
:21:21
I talked to one man named Dale for
three hours. He told me amazing things.
:21:24
But what does this all prove,
other than you're out of your mind?
:21:27
What's the difference between
a doctor and a scientist?
:21:30
And don't say salary.
:21:32
People. Hmm? We want to become doctors
because we want to help people.
:21:35
I want to be
a pediatrician.
:21:37
Okay, little people.
:21:39
The point is, we have to treat
the patient as well as the disease.
:21:43
That's why we have to dive into people,
wade into the sea of humanity, Truman.
:21:48
Ballroom seven,
right upstairs on your left.
:21:50
- You guys with
the meat packers convention?
- Yes, sir!
:21:54
Right up the stairs.
Ballroom seven.
:21:56
- Hey! Does a chicken have lips?
- You'll find out upstairs!
:21:59
Like a bulldog
on a pork chop!
