The Awakening

1 ( ) NOW THIS IS WHERE WE WORK WITH ALL OUR TEST SUBJECTS, AS YOU CAN SEE, WE TES THE ENTIRE RANGE OF EMOTIONS FROM HAPPINESS TO SADNESS AND FEAR AND SO ON, THAT'S ONE OF OUR NEWEST PATIENTS, JENNIFER, POOR DEAR, MOST KIDS WOULD BE LAUGHING, JENNY, WE CALL HER, SHE'S ALSO ONE OF OUR MOST SEVERE CASES, HI, JENNY, ( puppy whimpering ) THAT'S A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHAT I'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT, SHE HAS NO DESIRE TO PLAY WITH THE PUPPY, TO CUDDLE WITH IT, ANYTHING ELSE, JENNY DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO LAUGH OR CRY, BE HAPPY, SAD, AFRAID, ANGRY, SHE DOESN'T EXPERIENCE ANY OF THE BASIC EMOTIONS, EMOTIONS THAT THE REST OF US TAKE FOR GRANTED, IT'S AMAZING THAT YOU WOULD TALK THIS WAY IN FRONT OF HER, THINK I'M INSENSITIVE? NO, NO, NO, JENNY WAS BORN WITH THIS CONDITION, ALEXITHYMIA, PRIMARY ALEXITHYMIA, CAUSED BY A GENETIC NEURO-PHYSIOLOGICAL DEFEC WHICH MEANS SHE'S NEVER HAD ANY FEELINGS THAT CAN BE HURT, IF YOU COULD GRAPH EMOTIONS THE WAY YOU GRAPH A HEARTBEAT OR A BRAINWAVE, MOST OF MY PATIENTS WOULD BE FLAT-LINING, IF THEY DON' FEEL ANYTHING, HOW DO THEY SURVIVE IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD? JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE VOID EMOTIONALLY DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE VOID INTELLECTUALLY, MOST OF THEM FAKE I AS THEY GROW OLDER, THEY SEE SOMEONE LAUGH, AND THEY LAUGH, OR THEY FAKE A SMILE OR TWO, YES, COME IN, I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT, THERE'S SOMETHING ON TELEVISION YOU SHOULD SEE EXCUSE ME, ( announcer ) YOU'RE SEEING LIVE PICTURES OF A HOSTAGE-TAKING IN PROGRESS IN THE DOWNTOWN CORE, WE GO ON THE SCENE TO ADRIAN WHEELER, ( Wheeler ) 40 MINUTES AGO, TWO MEN APPARENTLY ROBBED THE STORE, A SHOOT-OUT WITH POLICE OCCURRED AS THE ROBBERS ATTEMPTED TO ESCAPE, ONE ROBBER IS DEAD, THE OTHER SUSPEC IS HOLDING A HOSTAGE IN THIS PARKING LO BESIDE THE STORE, THE HOSTAGE IS BETH, A DETECTIVE IS ENTERING THE PARKING LOT, HE'LL ATTEMPT TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE SUSPECT, THE SUSPECT IS ARMED, HE'S HOLDING A STORE EMPLOYEE, A WOMAN, AS HOSTAGE, ZOOM IN, JIMMY WE HAVE A NAME NOW, THE HOSTAGE IS ELIZABETH CARTER, SHE LOOKS REMARKABLY CALM CONSIDERING THE SITUATION, SHE'S ONE OF YOUR PATIENTS, MM-HMM, SHE'S COMPLETELY WITHOUT EMOTION, OH, MY GOD! OH, NO, IS THE HOSTAGE OKAY? YES, SHE'S STANDING, BUT THE ROBBER IS DOWN, ONCE AGAIN, THE HOSTAGE BETH CARTER IS UNHARMED, AND SHE LOOKS SURPRISINGLY UNAFFECTED BY WHA SHE'S JUST BEEN THROUGH, ( Control Voice ) THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUR TELEVISION, DO NOT ATTEMP TO ADJUST THE PICTURE, WE ARE NOW CONTROLLING THE TRANSMISSION, WE CONTROL THE HORIZONTAL AND THE VERTICAL, WE CAN DELUGE YOU WITH A THOUSAND CHANNELS OR EXPAND ONE SINGLE IMAGE TO CRYSTAL CLARITY AND BEYOND, WE CAN SHAPE YOUR VISION TO ANYTHING OUR IMAGINATION CAN CONCEIVE, FOR THE NEXT HOUR, WE WILL CONTROL ALL THA YOU SEE AND HEAR, ( ) YOU ARE ABOUT TO EXPERIENCE THE AWE AND MYSTERY WHICH REACHES FROM THE DEEPEST INNER MIND TO THE OUTER LIMITS, IT IS SAID THAT EMOTIONS ARE THE LANGUAGE OF THE SOUL, BUT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THAT EXPRESSION IS MUTED?

THE MAN WHO HELD YOU HOSTAGE BEING KILLED? NO, THAT'S WHY I BROUGHT YOU IN, BETH, I THINK IT'S POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO TAKE A HUGE STEP FORWARD IN YOUR THERAPY, IT WOULD REQUIRE THA YOU UNDERGO AN OPERATION WHERE AN IMPLANT, A TINY DEVICE, DESIGNED TO STIMULATE THE NEURO-TRANSMITTERS RESPONSIBLE FOR EMOTIONS BE PLACED DIRECTLY INSIDE YOUR BRAIN, EMOTIONS? YEAH, YOU'D BE THE FIRST PERSON TO TRY IT, WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS FOR A LONG TIME, FOR ME?
